Dumpster Rental in
Gearhart, OR
ZTERS rents roll-off dumpsters throughout Gearhart, from US 101 out to the Cannon Beach line. Four sizes, 10 to 40 yards; a 10 yard costs $878-$1028 and stays on site 10 days.
Mon–Fri 5am–5pm PT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
No quote-chasing: the numbers for Oregon are on the page. One call books the container, one account manager owns the order until pickup, and the delivery date you set is the one the truck works to.
Salt air and coastal weather mean lots of siding, roofing, and water-damaged materials. Gearhart has cottages and beach homes needing maintenance work. A 10-yard fits smaller repairs and interior cleanouts. Bigger projects—roof replacements, deck teardowns, major remodels—call for 20, 30, or 40-yard dumpsters. Heavier materials fill smaller sizes faster, so the work type and debris weight both matter.
Delivery and pickup typically run three to five days from your call. The key thing to check before we arrive: can the truck reach the drop spot and back out safely? If you're off US 101 or the Sunset Highway, let us know. Most properties here have driveway space. Mark the spot level and clear of trees, power lines, and roof overhangs—coastal properties often have both. Call with your address and we'll confirm the timing and approach work.
Dumpster Sizes in Gearhart
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Gearhart, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
The 10 yard runs $878 to $1028 and is the pick when debris is dense: tile, plaster and shingles reach the weight limit long before a bigger container would look full.
Holds about 3 pickup truck loads or 50–70 trash bags. Footprint roughly one standard parking space. Heavy-debris configs can carry up to 10 tons.
Best for dirt and soil removal, brick and masonry, concrete demo, and asphalt shingles. Also fits small bath remodels and garage cleanouts.
The 20 yard, $1025 to $1209, is the size crews default to: big enough for a full-room gut, small enough that the drive still works around it.
Holds 8–10 pickup truck loads or about 120 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-house decluttering, mid-size garage and attic cleanouts, mid-size landscaping, and roof replacements on smaller homes.
Nothing bigger goes on a truck. The 40 yard runs $1295 to $1430 and suits light, high-volume debris; loaded with anything dense it hits the road-weight limit half full.
Holds about 12 pickup truck loads or 230–250 trash bags. The 8-ft walls make rear-door loading essential for bulky items.
Best for new construction, major demos, full kitchen-and-bath gut renos, and large commercial cleanouts. Note: dense debris (concrete, shingles) needs a heavy-debris bin instead.
The 15 yard carries the awkward loads: couches, cabinets, forty bags from an attic. Taller than the 10, no longer, so the truck places it anywhere a 10 goes.
Holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads or 80–100 trash bags. Roughly the volume of 15 standard washing machines.
Best for multi-room remodels, flooring removal, garage cleanouts, light demo, larger landscaping, and deck builds. Heavy materials need a smaller heavy-debris bin.
When the job is measured in rooms rather than fixtures, the 30 yard at $1115 to $1270 keeps a crew from waiting on swaps. Save it for bulk; dense debris maxes the allowance early.
Holds about 9 pickup truck loads or 170–190 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for whole-house cleanouts, large home demos, active construction, and commercial mixed debris. Note: cannot accept dirt, concrete, brick, or shingles.
Residential and Construction Dumpster Rental in Gearhart, OR
For homeowners
A garage or basement cleanout is the most common homeowner job, and it is a volume job: bulky, light, and done over a weekend. Kitchen and bath remodels add cabinets and flooring. Either way the container sits on the Gearhart driveway, and the rear door swings open so heavy pieces roll in instead of going over the wall.
For contractors
Roofing crews watch weight, not space: a tear-off hits the tonnage allowance long before the rim. Demo crews are the same with plaster and tile. Framing and cleanup phases flip it — bulky, light, volume-driven. Say what phase the Gearhart job is in and the container follows.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Gearhart
- Call for a quote. Describe the debris, the address, and the dates. One account manager takes the order and stays on it.
- Pick the size and the spot. Clear a straight run for the truck and check for low branches or wires over the drop point.
- Load it. Keep everything level with or below the top rail, and keep heavy material in a low, even layer.
- Call for pickup. Ring the same number when you are done, or at the end of the rental period.
How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost in Gearhart, OR?
Dumpster rental pricing in Gearhart varies with disposal costs, debris weight, rental length, and delivery distance. The ranges below reflect recent local pricing rather than a fixed quote — the final number depends on the size you pick and what goes in it.
Estimated Dumpster Rental Costs in Gearhart
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $878 – $1028 | — | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $1025 – $1209 | — | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $1115 – $1270 | — | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $1295 – $1430 | — | Up to 10 days | 5–8 tons |
* Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance from the yard, fuel, and how easy the drop spot is to reach. Where it shows as included, it is already inside the range.
** Each rental carries a base weight allowance. Debris over that allowance is billed as an adjustment at pickup.
Why Is There a Price Range?
Five things move the number inside that range:
- Debris type. Clean wood and household junk dispose cheaply. Shingles, plaster, tile, dirt and concrete are billed by weight and hit the allowance early.
- Weight. A container can reach its tonnage cap while it still looks half empty, which is the single most common surprise on a first rental.
- Rental length. The quote covers 10 days. Longer rentals are extended for an additional fee.
- Delivery distance. How far the truck runs from the yard to your address, and whether it can make a straight approach.
- Local disposal rates. Landfill and transfer-station fees are set locally and are the largest single input to the price.
What Is Included in the Base Rental?
- Delivery to your Gearhart address on the date you book
- A 10-day rental period
- Pickup and haul-away when you call
- Disposal up to the size's included tonnage
- One account manager handling the order from quote through pickup
Charged separately: weight over the included allowance, days past the rental period, and any load containing prohibited material.
How to Get an Exact Quote
Have these ready and the quote takes a couple of minutes:
- What the debris is — remodel, roof tear-off, cleanout, yard waste, concrete
- Roughly how much of it there is
- The delivery address and where the container should sit
- The date you want it dropped
Call (833) 974-8378 and describe the job. If two sizes both look plausible, say so — the gap between them is usually smaller than the cost of a second haul.
What You Can Put in a Dumpster in Gearhart
Most of what comes out of a house or a job site is fine. The restricted list is set by the disposal facility, not by us, and it is short.
Accepted
- Household junk, furniture, and general trash
- Renovation debris — drywall, lumber, trim, cabinets
- Flooring, carpet, tile, and countertops
- Roofing shingles and underlayment
- Yard waste, brush, and branches
- Appliances with the refrigerant already removed
- Concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt — mention these when you book, because they are priced by weight
Not accepted
- Paint, solvents, and other liquids
- Motor oil, fuel, and antifreeze
- Batteries and propane tanks
- Tires
- Asbestos and other hazardous material
- Medical or biological waste
- Appliances still holding refrigerant
Everything has to sit level with or below the top rail — an overfilled container cannot be tarped, so the driver has to leave it until the load comes down. If you are not sure about an item, ask before it goes over the side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gearhart dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Gearhart dumpster costs range from $878 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $1430 for a 40 yard dumpster.
Each dumpster size includes a maximum allowable tonnage and a 10-day rental period. If you need the dumpster longer, you can extend your rental period for an additional fee. Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance, size, and access. The full breakdown by size, including the delivery estimate and the included tonnage, is in the pricing section above.
It depends where the trucks already are that week. Containers run routes, so a drop gets grouped with other stops heading the same direction, and how quickly one reaches Gearhart moves with how full the schedule already is.
Call with the dates you have in mind and ask for the current window. Ordering a day or two before you actually want to start loading is the habit that saves people a scramble.
You get 10 days from the day it is dropped, which covers nearly every single-project rental with room to spare. Nobody is standing over the clock.
Need longer? Call before the window closes and add days for an additional daily fee. Done early? Call and the pickup moves up, as long as the truck has not already been routed for the day.
Where can it sit? On your driveway or property, no permit. Street placement in Gearhart depends on whether it blocks traffic or utilities. Clatsop County makes that call. If you've got space on your property, that's cleaner. If street placement is needed, call the county planning office to confirm what works, then call us to book.
Property, no permit. Street placement requires one from Clatsop County. If the dumpster stays on your land, you're set. If you need street access, the county typically turns permits around within a day or two. Call us and we'll help you figure out what you need.
Most Gearhart jobs fit a 20 or 30-yard—that's your typical roof or deck work size. Smaller repairs use a 10-yard. If you're applying for a street permit, contact Clatsop County planning. Tell them your project type and they'll advise on timing. We coordinate with your permit window once it's locked in.
Work from what is coming out, not from the size of the house. A single bathroom or one room of flooring fills a 10. A kitchen with cabinets and counters wants the 20. Gut work across several rooms, or a barn with decades of storage in it, is 30 yard territory.
Roofing is its own case. Shingles are heavy for the space they take, so the tonnage allowance runs out long before the walls do. If concrete, brick or dirt is going in, say so when you call, because that changes the answer completely.
When two sizes both look plausible, the gap between them is usually smaller than the cost of a second haul.
