As an essential business we are open. At Red Star Roll-Off and Disposal the safety of our employees, customers and community is our number one priority. We are practicing social distancing with contactless deliveries.

Whether you’re cleaning out a garage, tackling a home renovation, or managing a construction site, renting a roll-off dumpster can make waste removal simple and stress-free. At Red Star Roll-Off, we’ve helped thousands of Quad Cities homeowners, contractors, and businesses choose the right dumpster for their projects.

This guide will walk you through everything you need to know — from sizes and pricing to what you can throw away — so you can rent with confidence.

  1. What Is a Roll-Off Dumpster?

A roll-off dumpster is a large, open-top container delivered to your property for temporary waste disposal. Once you’ve filled it, we pick it up and haul it away. They’re called “roll-off” dumpsters because they roll off the back of a truck onto your driveway or job site.

  1. Why Rent from a Local Quad Cities Dumpster Company?

Choosing a local provider like Red Star Roll-Off means:

  • Faster delivery and pickup — We’re based right here in the Quad Cities, so you’re not waiting on an out-of-state schedule.
  • Transparent pricing — No surprise environmental surcharges or hidden fees.
  • Personal service — When you call, you reach a QC local person on the phone.
  1. Dumpster Sizes and What They’re Best For

We offer a range of dumpster sizes to fit every need:

  • 10-Yard Dumpster – Great for small cleanouts, yard waste, or single-room renovations.
  • 20-Yard Dumpster – Perfect for medium home projects, roofing jobs, and estate cleanups.
  • 30-Yard Dumpster – Ideal for large renovations, construction debris, or full-house cleanouts.
  • 40-Yard Dumpster – For big commercial projects and major demolitions.

Tip: Choosing the right size saves you money by avoiding overweight fees or extra trips.

  1. How to Prepare for Dumpster Delivery
