Dumpster Rental Asheville rents construction dumpsters to builders, remodelers and contractors across Asheville, NC, in 10, 15, 20 and 30-yard sizes. You get delivery to the jobsite, swap-outs when the box is full, and disposal at the Buncombe County Landfill in one all-in price.
On a jobsite, a dumpster is a scheduling tool as much as a trash can. If it’s full by Wednesday and the next one shows up Friday, your crew loses two days. We plan around your build schedule so there is always room in the box.

Which size works for a construction site?
| Size | Best for | Weight usually included |
|---|---|---|
| 10-yard | Concrete, brick, dirt, roofing tear-offs | About 2 tons |
| 15-yard | Interior demo, kitchen and bath remodels | About 3 tons |
| 20-yard | Larger remodels, mixed demo debris | About 4 tons |
| 30-yard | New construction, additions, framing waste | About 6 tons |
Heavy debris fills the weight limit long before the box looks full, so we’ll ask what’s going in before we pick the size. Typical costs are on our dumpster prices page.

How do swap-outs work?
Call or text when the box is getting full. We bring an empty container, pull the full one and set the empty one in the same spot in one trip. Your crew keeps loading without waiting on a separate pickup and delivery.
What should stay out of a construction load?
- Keep concrete, brick and block separate. A clean load can be recycled at the county landfill instead of buried. Mixed with wood or trash, it’s charged as trash.
- Keep dirt and rock out of mixed loads. Hillside site work brings up red clay and stone that adds weight fast.
- No hazardous materials: liquid paint, solvents, fuels, batteries or anything with refrigerant.
- No untested asbestos. Buncombe County Air Quality requires a permit before you demolish or remodel any building in the county, and suspect materials should be tested first.
Do I need a permit for a jobsite dumpster?
Not on private property. If the box has to sit on a city street or sidewalk, the City of Asheville requires a Right-of-Way Encroachment Permit before delivery. Outside city limits, check with the town, such as Woodfin or Weaverville, or with NCDOT for state roads.
Where does the debris go?
Construction and demolition debris goes to the C&D area at the Buncombe County Landfill on Panther Branch Road in Alexander. Every load is weighed on the scale there, and that ticket is what any overage is based on. The county transfer station on Hominy Creek Road does not take concrete.
Working on steep or tight jobsites
A lot of building around Asheville happens on hillside lots. Tell us about the grade, curves and overhead lines before the first drop. If the truck can’t safely reach the build pad, we’ll set the box at a flatter spot and plan the swap-outs around it. Learn more about roll-off delivery on mountain driveways.
