Construction and demolition (C&D) debris is one of the largest waste streams the EPA tracks under sustainable materials management, and it loads differently than household junk, heavy, mixed, and bulky. A C&D roll-off from Haul Master Dumpster Rental handles that weight at a flat rate: the 10-yard is $595, 15-yard $650, 20-yard $695, 30-yard $795, and 40-yard $895, with tonnage and fuel already inside the number. The crucial non-obvious part is that many quotes elsewhere exclude a dump fee; these five prices do not, the quoted figure is the figure.
Size by debris type, not guesswork.
A 10-yard (roughly 4 pickup-truck loads) suits a single bathroom gut or a small deck tear-out in East Nashville or 12 South. A 20-yard fits a kitchen remodel or a garage demo. A 30-yard is the common pick for a full roof tear-off or a whole-room renovation in Green Hills or Sylvan Park, and the 40-yard handles light, high-volume framing and siding scrap on larger builds.
The trade-off is driveway space versus debris volume: a 40-yard holds more but needs about 22 feet of flat run; a 10-yard tucks into a tight Germantown or The Gulch drive. Dense material matters too, concrete, brick, and asphalt are heavy, so a smaller container often carries a full legal load before it looks full, a point OSHA construction standards reinforce on jobsite load limits.
Permits depend on placement. A container on your own driveway or private lot in Donelson, Hermitage, or Bellevue generally needs no permit.
A container set in the street or public right-of-way in Davidson County may require a permit from Nashville Public Works; our team flags that before delivery so a stalled project does not turn into a fine. Plywood under the wheels protects the driveway surface, a step generic listings tend to skip.
How the rental runs: Step 1, call (615) 413-8685 with the project and ZIP. Step 2, we size the container from the debris list.
Step 3, the roll-off is delivered, usually same-day or next-day, and placed where you direct. Step 4, you load it over the rental window, commonly up to 7 days. Step 5, we haul it to a licensed C&D sorting facility, where mixed loads are separated for recycling and disposal per Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation">state solid-waste rules.
A C&D dumpster is a load-it-yourself rental, not junk removal, the crew drops and hauls, you fill it.
Some materials cannot ride in a C&D box. Household hazardous waste, paint, solvents, asbestos, tires, and appliances with refrigerant are excluded; see the EPA guidance on household hazardous waste and route those through proper channels. Clean concrete-only and clean-wood loads are sometimes better recycled separately, resources like Earth911 and the Construction & Demolition Recycling Association explain why source-separated loads divert more material.
Roofing contractors tearing off shingles should note the roofing industry's weight tables when choosing between a 20-yard and a 30-yard, since asphalt shingles are dense.
