Cape Girardeau’s Local Waste Experts
10 Yard Dumpster Rental in Cape Girardeau, MO
$325 flat, 2 tons of debris included, 7-day rental. The 10 yard is our smallest bin and the right call for single-room and garage jobs. At 12 feet long it fits driveways the bigger bins can’t touch, which matters on the narrow drives around Red Star and downtown Cape.

How Big Is a 10 Yard Dumpster Really?
12 feet long, 8 feet wide, 3.5 feet tall. Waist high on most people, so you can toss over the side without a ramp. It swallows about 3 pickup truck loads or 50 to 70 contractor bags. Picture your one-car garage packed 3 feet deep. That’s the bin.

What Jobs Fit a 10 Yard?
Garage Cleanout
A single garage cleanout, the classic. Old paint cans out first, they can't go in.
Basement or Attic
Clearing in the older housing stock around Cape, where staircases make hauling slow anyway.
Small Bathroom Demo
Fits a tub, vanity, tile, and drywall easily. Perfect for a residential refresh.
Yard Piles
Yard piles after a weekend of cutting, if a chipper isn't happening.
Concrete and Dirt
Concrete and dirt, filled halfway. This is the only bin we allow for dense material, and the half rule protects the truck's axle limit.
When Is a 10 Yard the Wrong Choice?
Furniture. Couches and mattresses eat volume fast, and a 10 yard chokes on a full living room. Kitchen remodels too. Cabinets are bulkier than people think. For either of those, the 20 yard is the honest recommendation, and the math on our sizes page shows why one bigger bin beats two small hauls.
What's Included in the $325?
Service & Logistics
Delivery, pickup, disposal, and the first 2 tons. Driveway boards under the bin, a drop-off photo texted to you, and 7 days to load.
Transparent Weight
Go over on weight and it’s $95 per ton, pro-rated off the scale ticket you get to see.
Most garage cleanouts land well under 2 tons unless plaster or shingles sneak in.
10 Yard Questions We Hear Weekly
Will it fit in my driveway?
Almost always. The bin needs about 25 feet of straight space including the truck’s roll-off room, and 10 feet of width. Tight spot off Sprigg or a shared drive downtown? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you straight before you book.
Can two neighbors split one?
Sure, and it happens a lot during spring cleaning. One person books it and owns the weight. Split the cost however you like. Just agree on who gets the last two feet of space, because somebody always has one more pile.
Is $325 the final number?
If you stay under 2 tons and 7 days, yes, to the penny. A typical garage job weighs 1 to 1.5 tons, so most people never touch the overage rate.
