Picking the wrong size can be a costly mistake—either you overpay for space you don't use, or you end up needing a "swap-out" which doubles your hauling costs.
Dimensions: Typically 12' Long x 8' Wide x 3.5' High.
Capacity: Equivalent to about 3 to 4 pickup truck loads.
Ideal for small residential projects in Maumee or Rossford. If you’re cleaning out a standard one-car garage, a small basement, or a modest 10' x 10' deck, this is your best bet. Because of its low profile, it is incredibly easy to load over the sides. It fits perfectly in tight West Des Moines driveways without blocking the sidewalk or infringing on your neighbor's property.
Dimensions: Typically 22' Long x 8' Wide x 4' High.
Capacity: Equivalent to about 8 pickup truck loads.
This is our most requested size across the West Des Moines metro area. It strikes the perfect balance between capacity and footprint. It is the "goldilocks" of dumpsters for:
Dimensions: Typically 22' Long x 8' Wide x 6' High.
Capacity: Equivalent to about 12 pickup truck loads.
When you are dealing with large-scale decluttering or significant home additions, the 30-yarder is your best friend. We frequently deliver these to the Old West End for historic restoration projects. The higher walls make it perfect for bulky items like old furniture, large appliances, and significant amounts of drywall or framing timber.
Dimensions: Typically 22' Long x 8' Wide x 8' High.
Capacity: Equivalent to about 16 pickup truck loads.
Reserved for the big jobs. If you’re working on a commercial site near Fifth Third Field, a total building demolition, or a massive estate cleanout where everything must go, these high-capacity bins are built for volume. Note: These are not for heavy debris like concrete or dirt (due to weight limits), but they are unbeatable for general construction debris and massive amounts of household trash.
In a city like West Des Moines, where many neighborhoods feature street-side parking and narrow lots, placement of your roll-off container is a critical consideration.
If the dumpster is placed entirely on your private property (your driveway, your yard, or a private parking lot), you generally do not need a permit. This is the most cost-effective and convenient way to rent.
However, if you need to place the dumpster on a public street, sidewalk, or the "verge" (the grass between the sidewalk and the curb), the City of West Des Moines requires a Right-of-Way (ROW) Permit.
Pro Tip: At C4K Waste Solutions, our drivers are masters of precision placement. We often find ways to squeeze a bin onto a driveway that other companies say is "impossible," saving you the hassle and expense of city permits.
Living in the Great Lakes region means dealing with four distinct seasons, each presenting unique challenges for waste disposal.
As the snow melts off the Anthony Wayne Bridge, West Des Moinesans emerge from their homes ready to purge. We see a massive spike in demand during April and May. We offer "Spring Cleanout Specials" specifically for residents in Oregon, Northwood, and Walbridge. This is the best time to clear out those damp basement items before the summer humidity sets in.
June through August is peak construction season. With the West Des Moines sun shining, roofing and remodeling projects are in full swing. Because demand is high, we recommend booking your rental at least 48 hours in advance to ensure you get your preferred size.
Before the first frost hits the West Des Moines Botanical Garden, residents use our smaller bins to clear out old sheds, fallen branches, and summer debris. While we don't allow "clean" yard waste (leaves/grass) to be mixed with construction debris, we can provide dedicated bins specifically for organic matter.
West Des Moines winters are notorious for heavy lake-effect snow and high winds. When Lake Erie storms bring down branches or cause interior flooding from burst pipes, C4K provides emergency 24-hour delivery. We help you get the debris out fast so you can focus on repairs.

We offer flexible scheduling, including early morning or late evening drop-offs to avoid interfering with your business hours or customer traffic.
To comply with West Des Moines, IA EPA regulations and protect our local environment, there are certain things we simply cannot put in our roll-off containers. Placing these items in a dumpster can result in additional fees or the landfill refusing the entire load.
| Prohibited Category | Specific Examples |
|---|---|
| Hazardous Materials | Pesticides, herbicides, pool chemicals, wet paint, solvents. |
| Automotive Items | Tires, car batteries, motor oil, transmission fluid, gasoline. |

| Electronic Waste | CRT monitors, old televisions, computers (should be taken to a specialized recycler). |
| Medical Waste | Biohazards, needles, pharmaceutical waste. |
Expert Tip: For paint cans, if you let the paint dry completely (or mix it with cat litter until it solidifies), many landfills will then accept them. Check with us first!

"I was overwhelmed with a basement flood in the South End. C4K had a dumpster in my driveway within 4 hours of my call. Their driver even helped me guide the bin so I could still get my car into the garage. Truly a lifesaver!"
— Sarah M., South West Des Moines Resident
"Managing a construction site near the Glass City Center means tight deadlines and zero space. C4K handles our 'swap-outs' with incredible precision. They are the only crew I trust for my downtown projects."
— Marcus L., Commercial Contractor

— David R., Homeowner
Q: How much does a dumpster rental cost in West Des Moines?
A: Pricing varies based on the size of the bin and the weight of the debris. Generally, prices in the West Des Moines area range from $300 to $650. This usually includes a specific weight allowance (tonnage). We offer flat-rate pricing so you aren't surprised by the bill later.
Q: How long can I keep the dumpster?
A: Our standard rental period is 7 to 10 days. However, we know that projects in Sylvania or Maumee can sometimes hit delays. We offer flexible extensions for a small daily fee. Just give us a 24-hour notice!
Q: Can I put the dumpster on my lawn?
A: We strongly advise against it. The weight of the truck and a loaded dumpster can cause significant damage to your grass and the soil underneath. We prefer driveways or paved surfaces. If the lawn is the only option, we suggest laying down large plywood sheets first.
Q: What is the "Weight Limit"?
A: Every dumpster has a weight capacity (e.g., 2 tons for a 10-yard bin). This is for the safety of our trucks and to comply with West Des Moines, IA Department of Transportation (ODOT) road weight limits. If you are disposing of heavy materials like concrete, brick, or dirt, please let us know so we can provide a specialized "Heavy Load" bin.
Q: Do you offer same-day service?
A: Often, yes! If you call us before noon, we can frequently get a bin to your West Des Moines location that same afternoon. During peak summer months, we recommend calling a day or two ahead just to be safe.
