What Memphis houses are made of
The median home in Memphis was built in 1970, across 292,290 housing units. That is seventies-and-eighties stock: drywall, engineered lumber and asphalt shingle. It fills a container by volume rather than weight, so the bigger size is usually the economical one unless you are tearing off a roof.
What the weather adds to a Memphis dumpster bill
Memphis gets 53.7 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 3.8 inches of snow. None of that is your rubbish, but you pay to haul it, because the container is open to the sky and the load is weighed at the tip. 43 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 2 miles out.
Common questions about dumpster rental in Memphis, TN
- How much is a 20 yard dumpster in Memphis?
- Companies serving Memphis that publish a price list a median of $465 for a 20-yard, against $450 across Tennessee. That is a starting price. Weight over the included allowance is billed separately.
- Who has the cheapest dumpster in Memphis?
- The lowest published starting price among companies serving Memphis is $325. Booking a size down to reach a lower price usually backfires. A second haul costs more than the size you skipped.

Jakes Dumpsters holds the highest Google rating among companies serving Memphis, at 5.0 across 121 reviews. Innovating Services LLC lists the lowest published starting price at $325.

- What size dumpsters are available in Memphis?
- Companies serving Memphis list 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40 yard containers. The 20-yard covers the middle of the range. Go down to a 10 for heavy material, up to a 30 or 40 when the job produces bulk instead of weight.
- Is dumpster rental expensive in Memphis?
- The median published 20-yard price in Memphis is $465, essentially the same as the $450 median across Tennessee. Most of the difference between towns is haul distance to the landfill and what that landfill charges per ton, so a company one town over can quote noticeably less for the same container.
- How much is a 15-yard dumpster in Memphis?
- In Memphis: a 15-yard runs a median of $380 (3 companies), a 30-yard runs a median of $595 (3 companies). Ordering one size up costs less than a second haul, and far less than a swap-out halfway through the job.
- What is the standard rental period in Memphis?
- The most common listed rental period among Memphis companies is 7 days, from the 11 that publish one. Extra days are usually billed at a daily rate. Most companies will collect early at no extra charge, so book the shorter period and call when you finish.
- Which dumpster companies are based in Memphis?
- 5 of the 16 companies we list are based in Memphis itself; the rest are within 25 miles and typically serve it. Companies a few towns over hold the same permits and often quote the same or less, so there is no reason to rule them out on address alone.
