Renting a rolling trash box can be an efficient, economical way to handle extra trash when you clear overgrown landscaping or vacant lots, demolish the old work shed in the back, tear off an old roof or clean out the garage or basement.

Rolling trash boxes (also known as "roll off Dumpsters"), are usually rented a week at a time with delivery and pick-up in included in the price. Some companies will charge a flat fee per size of box, while others may charge one fee for the box and an additional dumping fee according to the weight of the material inside, especially if it exceeds a predetermined weight limit.

Boxes have weight limits, so you may need to rent smaller boxes to contain heavy materials such as dirt, tree stumps and and concrete.
