A 6-yard dumpster is a permanent container for trash or recycling waste at commercial businesses. It is ideal for locations that generate high waste volumes, such as apartment buildings and manufacturing warehouses. These dumpsters can handle more waste and require slightly more space to fit on a property.

What Is a 6-Yard Dumpster?

How Large Is a 6-Yard Dumpster?
A 6-yard dumpster's dimensions are typically 6 feet long, 5 feet wide, and 6 feet high. They can hold up to 1,200 pounds of trash or 72 kitchen trash bags, providing plenty of space for business waste.
This size is best for large establishments, such as restaurants that serve approximately 300 customers per day, industrial facilities over 5,000 square feet, and offices up to 15,000 square feet. A 6-yard dumpster is ideal for businesses with high trash volumes.

How Much Does a 6-Yard Dumpster Cost?
Rental prices can vary based on several factors, including:
The location of your business
The frequency of trash pickup you need
The type of waste being disposed
Local disposal fees
Each county and city establishes its own rates for dumping different types of materials, which is why your 6-yard dumpster rental depends on the type of waste. For example, the rental cost for a restaurant will differ from that of a clothing warehouse.
Transparent Pricing
The cost of your commercial dumpster rental is all-inclusive, meaning the price includes delivery, your scheduled collections, and disposal. No hidden fees or surcharges. Do not overfill your dumpster or throw away prohibited items to avoid overage and contamination fees. Reach out if you need multiple 6-yard dumpsters at your location or if you have multiple establishments. We can create a custom solution for your needs.
