A 30 yard dumpster measures about 22 feet long, 8 feet wide and 6 feet tall, and holds roughly 9 pickup truck loads of debris. In Kirkland, WA, weekly rental for that size runs $426 to $778. It's the size most teardown and whole-house cleanout crews reach for first.
Picture two parking spaces end to end, stacked six feet high. That's the footprint you're working with, and it's why crews use it for large remodels, roof tear-offs and full garage cleanouts. Before you commit, check dumpster sizes and dimensions against your driveway or curb space. Delivery trucks need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the unit to set it down safely, so a long driveway or open street frontage in Kirkland matters more than square footage. If your load runs heavier than lumber and drywall, like tile or concrete, ask about dumpster weight limits before it's dropped, because overage fees add up fast. Not sure this is the right size? Compare it against the 10 yard, 20 yard and 40 yard options before you book. Kirkland Porta Pros delivers throughout Kirkland and can get you into the right container the first time instead of a costly swap mid-project.
Pricing depends on how long you keep it and what's going into it.

|---|---|---|---|
| day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
Most renovation jobs land in the weekly range. Delivery is billed separately, and a standalone delivery fee typically falls between $100 and $150 for the day rate, though it can run higher for rush jobs.

If you're weighing a roll-off against ongoing service needs on a job site, our roll-off dumpster rental page walks through both.
Placement in the public right of way, meaning the street or curb strip, needs confirming with the city before delivery. Driveway and private property placement is usually simpler, but Kirkland's permit rules for street placement aren't something to guess on. Check dumpster permit requirements first, and if you're staging a larger construction dumpster rental with a fence line or temporary power involved, review temporary fence rental and temporary power pole too. Also know what cannot go in a dumpster: paint, tires and chemicals usually aren't allowed and can trigger extra charges if they're found mixed in.
If your project also needs sanitation, pair the dumpster with a standard porta potty rental or check porta potty rental cost for bundled pricing. Crews doing full-scale demolition often add a portable restroom rental for the duration of the job. For septic-adjacent teardown work, septic pumping service is worth a call before the dumpster arrives.
Most rentals run by the week, matching the pricing table above, but daily and monthly terms are available too. Longer jobs, like full home renovations, usually book monthly to avoid repeat delivery fees. Talk through your timeline with Kirkland Porta Pros before locking in a duration.
Paint, batteries, tires, chemicals and certain electronics typically aren't accepted. See what cannot go in a dumpster for the full list, since violations can mean added fees or a refused pickup.
Trucks need roughly 60 feet of straight clearance behind the drop point to lower the container safely. Narrow driveways or tight urban lots in Kirkland sometimes require street placement instead, which brings permit questions into play.
Usually not, but placement in the right of way does need city confirmation. Check porta potty permit requirements and dumpster permit requirements for guidance before delivery day.
Depends on scope. A single-room remodel often fits a 20 yard dumpster, while whole-house cleanouts or roofing jobs lean toward 30 or 40 yard sizes. Compare volume against your debris type before ordering.
