Small Construction Dumpster Rental Near You
Not every job needs a 40-yard box. A bathroom gut, a small deck tear-out, a driveway’s worth of broken concrete — those call for a small construction dumpster you can tuck into a tight driveway or a narrow job site. BG’s Big Box Service has rented exactly that across Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1981. Our 3-yard and 10-yard roll-offs are the two most people mean by “small construction dumpster.” One fits tight spaces. The other is built for weight.
Quick Takeaways
- Two small-job workhorses: the 3-yard (4x4x6 ft) for tight spaces and the 10-yard (2x8x18 ft) for heavy debris.
- The 10-yard is the real construction bin — dirt, concrete, brick, rock, and asphalt, because it’s built to carry weight, not volume.
- Fits where big boxes can’t — a 3-yard drops into a single driveway or a small commercial lot.
- Delivered fast from our Sun Valley yard across the Valley, LA, and Ventura County — often the next day.
- Lowest price in Southern California — match-or-beat pricing, with daily, weekly, and monthly rates.
Which Small Dumpster Fits a Construction Job
The right small dumpster depends on what you’re throwing away — bulk or weight. Light, bulky debris like drywall, wood, and fixtures goes in the 3-yard for a small job. Dense material — concrete, dirt, brick, rock — goes in the 10-yard, which is short on purpose so a heavy load stays legal to haul.
3 Yarder
(Smallest)
4ft x 4ft x 6ft. Good for a garage purge or a small bathroom demo.
10 Yarder
2ft x 8ft x 18ft. Built for weight: dirt, concrete, brick, rock, asphalt, sand. Not for household trash.

Small Construction Dumpster Rental FAQ
What is the smallest construction dumpster you can rent?
Our 3-yard container (4x4x6 ft) is the smallest, and it fits in a single driveway or a tight job site. For actual construction debris that’s heavy rather than bulky — concrete, dirt, brick — the 10-yard is usually the better small option, because it’s built low to carry weight safely. Tell us the material and we’ll point you to the right one.
Can a small dumpster hold concrete and dirt?
Yes — that’s exactly what the 10-yard is for. It’s short (2 ft tall) on purpose, so a full load of concrete, soil, rock, or asphalt stays within legal hauling weight. Don’t put heavy debris in a tall box; it gets too heavy to move. If you’re mixing heavy rubble with lighter demo trash, ask and we’ll spec the right bin or pair.
How much does a small construction dumpster rental cost near me?
Price depends on the size and how long you keep it, with daily, weekly, and monthly rates. We advertise the lowest dumpster prices in Southern California and match or beat any honest competitor quote, and contractors renting several bins get bulk pricing. There are no surprise fees at pickup. Request a free estimate online for your exact number.
How fast can you deliver a small dumpster?
Often the next day, and same-day when the schedule allows, from our Sun Valley yard. We run Monday through Friday, 7am to 6pm, and Saturday 8am to 4pm, and our drivers handle both drop-off and pickup. Submit the online form with your address and date and we’ll lock in a window.
Do I need a permit for a small construction dumpster?
Only if it sits on a public street. On your own driveway or lot, no permit is needed. If the bin has to go on a street or parkway, the City of Los Angeles — and most local cities — require a permit first. Ask when you book and we’ll tell you what your address needs.
