What the Providence dumpster market looks like
The 10-yard quotes here run from $399 at Elite Disposal up to $450 at RD Recycling. That is $51 of daylight between two companies covering the same town. Companies with a Providence address: 3 of 34. The rest cover the town from up to 25 miles away as the crow flies, so ask about the second trip before you book the first. The Providence market has 2,035 reviews across it, and 22 companies are sitting at 4.9 or better. Hippo Dumpster Rental accounts for 487 of them.
9% of the companies here put a number on their own site. The other 31 want the call first, which is worth knowing before you plan your afternoon. The sizes this town actually stocks are the 10-yard, the 15-yard, and the 20-yard, with 16 of the 34 carrying the 10-yard. Anything outside that is a special order somebody has to drive in. Ratings here run from 5.0 down to 3.1. Rapid Junk Removal is the one at the top, on 141 reviews rather than a handful.
Companies here quote about 7 days in the rental before daily charges start, on the 6 rates that name a period. Ask what the extra day costs before you need one. 32 of the 34 run a website you can check before calling. The other 2 take the job over the phone, which is common for the smaller yards and says nothing about the work: between them the 34 hold 2,035 reviews. The largest container serving Providence is the 40-yard, and Gladu Dumpster Rentals and East Coast Construction list one. Book that size ahead rather than the week you need it.
The cheapest published anything in Providence is a 10-yard at $399, from Elite Disposal. That is the floor on this page, not the price of the size you probably need.
What Providence houses are made of
79,275 housing units sit in Providence, median build year 1938. Anything that old carries plaster and cast iron, both of which are dense enough that the tonnage allowance runs out before the walls do. Ask what the overage rate is before the skip arrives, not after.
What the weather adds to a Providence dumpster bill
Providence gets 47.2 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 33.8 inches of snow. A roll-off sits open, so that lands in the container and the truck weighs it on the way to the tip. You pay for the water by the ton along with everything you meant to throw out. 107 days a year drop below freezing, and a wet load that freezes is heavier and harder to tip. Tell the hauler if the container has frozen to the driveway before they send a truck. Ask for a tarp if it is going to stand through a wet week. NOAA 1991–2020 normals, from a station 0.9 miles out.
