Mon–Fri 7am–7pm CT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
Look up the price, make the call, get the container. ZTERS publishes real Wisconsin prices, keeps the order to a single conversation, and sets the delivery date on that same call.
Superior's older neighborhoods near East End and downtown are mostly early-20th-century housing, and a remodel there usually turns up plaster, lath and old flooring — dense material that fills a container by weight fast. Farther out toward South Superior, lots run bigger and cleanouts more often include outbuildings or garages alongside the house itself. A property near Essentia Health St. Mary's Hospital-Superior doing commercial work will throw the kind of mixed construction debris that fills a 30 or 40 quickly.
Along Tower Avenue and Belknap Street, older lots sit close together, so the truck's approach off the street counts for more than the driveway's size. Superior's hilly terrain also means a driveway that looks flat from the street can slope more than it appears, which affects where the container's rails actually sit level. Mark the exact spot and check the grade as well as anything overhead before delivery day.
Dumpster Sizes in Superior
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Superior, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
The 10 yard runs $770 to $895 and is the pick when debris is dense: tile, plaster and shingles reach the weight limit long before a bigger container would look full.
Holds about 3 pickup truck loads or 50–70 trash bags. Footprint roughly one standard parking space. Heavy-debris configs can carry up to 10 tons.
Best for dirt and soil removal, brick and masonry, concrete demo, and asphalt shingles. Also fits small bath remodels and garage cleanouts.
The 20 yard is the renovation workhorse, $880 to $1035. Cabinets, subfloor and trim from a kitchen and a bath together fit with room to spare.
Holds 8–10 pickup truck loads or about 120 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-house decluttering, mid-size garage and attic cleanouts, mid-size landscaping, and roof replacements on smaller homes.
Commercial jobs and full demolitions book the 40 yard, $1040 to $1215. If the approach bends or slopes, ask about running two smaller containers instead.
Holds about 12 pickup truck loads or 230–250 trash bags. The 8-ft walls make rear-door loading essential for bulky items.
Best for new construction, major demos, full kitchen-and-bath gut renos, and large commercial cleanouts. Note: dense debris (concrete, shingles) needs a heavy-debris bin instead.
The 15 yard carries the awkward loads: couches, cabinets, forty bags from an attic. Taller than the 10, no longer, so the truck places it anywhere a 10 goes.
Holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads or 80–100 trash bags. Roughly the volume of 15 standard washing machines.
Best for multi-room remodels, flooring removal, garage cleanouts, light demo, larger landscaping, and deck builds. Heavy materials need a smaller heavy-debris bin.
The 30 yard, $925 to $1040, is for volume: full-house clearouts, siding jobs, framing scrap. Bulky and light is its business; dense material belongs in a smaller size.
Holds about 9 pickup truck loads or 170–190 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for whole-house cleanouts, large home demos, active construction, and commercial mixed debris. Note: cannot accept dirt, concrete, brick, or shingles.
Residential and Construction Dumpster Rental in Superior, WI
For homeowners
A household cleanout fills a container with awkward shapes rather than heavy ones: a sleeper sofa, bagged clothing, the contents of a garage that has been closing on itself for a decade. Bathroom and kitchen remodels add cabinets and torn-out flooring. A 10 or a 20 yard usually sits on a Superior driveway without blocking the garage door.
For contractors
A jobsite container earns its keep on turnaround. One account manager handles the drops and swaps, the size tracks what the phase produces, and the staging spot needs a straight approach so a loaded truck is not threading parked equipment. Heavy phases go in smaller containers loaded level.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Superior
- Call for a quote. Describe the debris, the address, and the dates. One account manager takes the order and stays on it.
- Pick the size and the spot. Clear a straight run for the truck and check for low branches or wires over the drop point.
- Load it. Keep everything level with or below the top rail, and keep heavy material in a low, even layer.
- Call for pickup. Ring the same number when you are done, or at the end of the rental period.
How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost in Superior, WI?
Dumpster rental pricing in Superior varies with disposal costs, debris weight, rental length, and delivery distance. The ranges below reflect recent local pricing rather than a fixed quote — the final number depends on the size you pick and what goes in it.
Estimated Dumpster Rental Costs in Superior
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $770 – $895 | $350 | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $880 – $1035 | $285 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $925 – $1040 | — | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $1040 – $1215 | $160 | Up to 10 days | 5–8 tons |
* Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance from the yard, fuel, and how easy the drop spot is to reach. Where it shows as included, it is already inside the range.
** Each rental carries a base weight allowance. Debris over that allowance is billed as an adjustment at pickup.
Why Is There a Price Range?
Five things move the number inside that range:
- Debris type. Clean wood and household junk dispose cheaply. Shingles, plaster, tile, dirt and concrete are billed by weight and hit the allowance early.
- Weight. A container can reach its tonnage cap while it still looks half empty, which is the single most common surprise on a first rental.
- Rental length. The quote covers 10 days. Longer rentals are extended for an additional fee.
- Delivery distance. How far the truck runs from the yard to your address, and whether it can make a straight approach.
- Local disposal rates. Landfill and transfer-station fees are set locally and are the largest single input to the price.
What Is Included in the Base Rental?
- Delivery to your Superior address on the date you book
- A 10-day rental period
- Pickup and haul-away when you call
- Disposal up to the size's included tonnage
- One account manager handling the order from quote through pickup
Charged separately: weight over the included allowance, days past the rental period, and any load containing prohibited material.
How to Get an Exact Quote
Have these ready and the quote takes a couple of minutes:
- What the debris is — remodel, roof tear-off, cleanout, yard waste, concrete
- Roughly how much of it there is
- The delivery address and where the container should sit
- The date you want it dropped
Call (877) 959-3589 and describe the job. If two sizes both look plausible, say so — the gap between them is usually smaller than the cost of a second haul.
What You Can Put in a Dumpster in Superior
Most of what comes out of a house or a job site is fine. The restricted list is set by the disposal facility, not by us, and it is short.
Accepted
- Household junk, furniture, and general trash
- Renovation debris — drywall, lumber, trim, cabinets
- Flooring, carpet, tile, and countertops
- Roofing shingles and underlayment
- Yard waste, brush, and branches
- Appliances with the refrigerant already removed
- Concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt — mention these when you book, because they are priced by weight
Not accepted
- Paint, solvents, and other liquids
- Motor oil, fuel, and antifreeze
- Batteries and propane tanks
- Tires
- Asbestos and other hazardous material
- Medical or biological waste
- Appliances still holding refrigerant
Everything has to sit level with or below the top rail — an overfilled container cannot be tarped, so the driver has to leave it until the load comes down. If you are not sure about an item, ask before it goes over the side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Superior dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Superior dumpster costs range from $770 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $1215 for a 40 yard dumpster.
Each dumpster size includes a maximum allowable tonnage and a 10-day rental period. If you need the dumpster longer, you can extend your rental period for an additional fee. Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance, size, and access. The full breakdown by size, including the delivery estimate and the included tonnage, is in the pricing section above.
Near downtown in Central Park or East End, the streets are narrower and lined with mature trees; out in South Superior, Allouez and Lakeside Terrace the lots open up and give the truck more room. Hayes Court sees the same mix of older and newer construction.
Addresses toward Lake Nebagamon get the same route. ZTERS covers all of it.
It depends where the trucks already are that week. Containers run routes, so a drop gets grouped with other stops heading the same direction, and how quickly one reaches Superior moves with how full the schedule already is.
Call with the dates you have in mind and ask for the current window. Ordering a day or two before you actually want to start loading is the habit that saves people a scramble.
The landfill sets the rules, and the short version is: nothing hazardous. Paint, solvents and other liquids, motor oil, fuel, antifreeze, batteries, propane tanks, tires, asbestos, medical waste, and appliances still holding refrigerant all stay out.
Ordinary demolition and cleanout debris is fine. Concrete, brick and dirt can go in, but they are billed by weight, so flag them when you book. When in doubt about an item, ask first; it beats paying to have it pulled back out.
Measure the job by its debris, not its square footage. One bathroom or a single room of flooring is a 10. A full kitchen, cabinets and counters included, fills a 20. Whole-floor gut jobs and big cleanouts run to a 30.
The larger sizes share the same footprint and only grow taller, so a bigger container does not need a bigger driveway. The exception is heavy material: shingles, tile, concrete or dirt hit the weight limit long before the container looks full, so mention them when you call and let the tonnage set the size.
A dumpster kept on your own driveway or yard in Superior doesn't need a permit.
One is required only for street placement, and the City of Superior issues it.
Only street placement in Superior needs a permit — a container kept on your own property doesn't.
The City of Superior issues that permit, so reach out once your delivery date is set.
