Concrete & Dirt Dumpster Rental San Diego

Why heavy materials require a smaller container

Concrete, dirt, and similar debris are dense enough that a full load in a 20, 30, or 40-yard bin would exceed legal road weight limits long before the container looked full. The 10-yard bin keeps the load within safe, legal limits while still holding a meaningful amount of material.

Concrete

Broken slab, driveways, patios, sidewalks, and pool decks all count as concrete debris for the dedicated 10-yard bin.

• Clean, broken concrete without excessive rebar
• Rebar-heavy chunks may need cutting first — call first if unsure
• Wet or still-curing concrete is not acceptable

Dirt

Dirt, soil, and fill from excavation, regrading, or landscaping projects also require the 10-yard heavy-material bin.

• Clean dirt, soil, sand, and fill
• Sod and topsoil removal
• Contaminated soil (oil, fuel, chemicals) is not acceptable — call to discuss options

Asphalt

Asphalt from driveway or paving tear-outs is heavy in the same way as concrete and belongs in the dedicated bin.

• Broken asphalt from driveways or small paving jobs
• A separate load is often preferred for recycling — ask when booking

Brick, block, and tile

Masonry materials are dense and add up in weight quickly, even in smaller quantities.

• Concrete block (CMU) and clay brick from wall tear-outs
• Roof tile and ceramic or stone tile from remodels
• Pavers, flagstone, and other stone hardscape

Rock

Decorative rock, boulders, and excavated rock from landscaping or grading projects also count as heavy material for the dedicated 10-yard bin.

Mixing materials can change requirements

Combining heavy material with general debris — wood, drywall, trash — may change disposal requirements or pricing for the load. Confirm what you're planning to put in the bin when you book so we can set up the correct rate and avoid surprises.

Typical projects

• Driveway, patio, or pool deck demolition
• Block wall or brick tear-out
• Landscape excavation and regrading
• Small paving or asphalt removal jobs

Loading considerations

Heavy material fills a container by weight, not volume, so it should be loaded level with the container walls rather than heaped. We'll walk you through where to stop loading when the bin is delivered.

Weight considerations and pricing

The 10-yard heavy-material rate starts at a flat $699 for 1 ton. Heavier loads are priced based on material and volume — confirm the number with us before delivery so there are no surprises at pickup.

Prohibited materials

• Wood, drywall, or general trash mixed in without notice
• Contaminated or oil-stained soil
• Wet or uncured concrete
• Hazardous waste, paint, or chemicals
• Tires, batteries, propane tanks, or appliances
