A 40 yard dumpster measures roughly 22 feet long, 8 feet wide and 8 feet tall, and it holds about 40 cubic yards of debris, enough for a full home teardown or a large commercial cleanout. In Kirkland, day rates for this size run in the same band as our dumpster rental cost guide, generally higher than a 20 yard dumpster but built for bigger jobs.
The 40-yard dumpster dimensions run about 22 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet, the largest box Kirkland Porta Pros puts on the street. That footprint holds framing lumber, drywall, siding and bulk trash from a full remodel or a commercial strip-out without needing a second pull. Compare it against a 30 yard dumpster or a 10 yard dumpster on our dumpster sizes and dimensions page if you are not sure this is the right box. Delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck to set the container down flat, so a driveway or lot with a clear runway matters more than square footage. If your site sits close to a curb or shared alley, check dumpster permit requirements before delivery day, since Kirkland placement in the right of way needs confirming with the city directly. Loading heavy debris, like concrete or shingles, can push you over the weight limit fast, so read dumpster weight limits before you fill it edge to edge.
Pricing depends on rental length, what's going in the box and where in Kirkland it lands. Here is where a 40 yard container typically sits against the smaller sizes we haul:
| unit | duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| dumpster | day | 51 | 75 | 112 |
| dumpster | weekend | 390 | 440 | 497 |
| dumpster | week | 426 | 600 | 778 |
| dumpster | month | 91 | 108 | 500 |
A delivery fee applies on top of the rental, and most Kirkland jobs land in the standard range rather than the high end reserved for rush or after-hours drops. For a full breakdown of what drives price up or down, see our dumpster rental cost page. If your project sits closer to Bothell, 6.1 miles north of Kirkland, or Woodinville, 7.8 miles northeast, delivery logistics stay about the same since our trucks run those routes daily. Renovation crews often pair a 40 yard box with a construction dumpster rental package that bundles a portable toilet, since job sites need both under OSHA 1926.51(c) sanitation rules.
Yes. Kirkland Porta Pros delivers 40 yard roll-off dumpsters across Kirkland and out toward Kenmore, 5.5 miles northwest, and Bothell. Same-week delivery is standard, and we can often turn around a next-day drop if the site is ready. Before you commit to the largest box, check what cannot go in a dumpster, since certain materials, paints and tires among them, need separate disposal regardless of container size. Renovation or teardown jobs generating this much debris usually also need site sanitation, so pair your order with portable restroom rental or a standard porta potty rental for the crew. Larger commercial sites sometimes add temporary fence rental around the dumpster zone to keep the public clear of the drop area, and if you're managing multiple deliveries, our construction site services hub covers dumpsters, toilets and fencing together in one request.
Most rentals run by the day, weekend, week or month, with monthly terms suited to ongoing demolition or long remodels. Extending past your agreed term usually costs less than starting a second rental, so tell us upfront if the job might run long.
Paint, tires, batteries, refrigerants and hazardous chemicals are usually excluded, even in the largest box. Check what cannot go in a dumpster for the full list before loading, since violations can trigger extra disposal fees on pickup.
It depends on placement. A dumpster kept entirely on private property usually needs nothing, but street or right-of-way placement needs confirming with the City of Kirkland. See dumpster permit requirements before delivery.
Weight limits vary by material type, not just volume, and heavy debris like concrete fills the tonnage cap long before the box looks full. Review dumpster weight limits so you don't get hit with overage charges.
Sometimes. A full house cleanout or major renovation fits well, but a single-room remodel usually only needs a 20 yard dumpster or smaller. Compare volume needs on dumpster sizes and dimensions before ordering.
