Dumpster Rental in
Cody, WY
A dumpster in Cody takes one phone call: pick a size from 10 to 40 yards, set the delivery date, and the container arrives. The 10 yard runs $785-$859 with 10 days to fill it.
Mon–Fri 6am–6pm MT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
Look up the price, make the call, get the container. ZTERS publishes real Wyoming prices, keeps the order to a single conversation, and sets the delivery date on that same call.
At just under 9,800 people, Cody anchors ranching and tourism country in Park County. The rentals here tend to be spring cleanouts in the older blocks around West Park Hospital, summer remodels, roof tear-offs once the weather holds, and ranch clearings on the edge of town where the debris runs dense. Household cleanouts usually fit a 20 or 30; the jobs that belong in a 10 are the ones moving dirt, concrete, or shingles, because heavy material fills the weight allowance long before the container looks full.
Your delivery in Cody comes down to the driveway or lane you can give the truck. Around Sheridan Avenue and 16th Street the streets are older and tighter, so the main thing is overhead — the truck tilts its bed high to set a container down, and a low limb can end a drop that looked fine from the ground. Out toward Powell, ranch drives and gravel yards are usually fine when firm; soft ground after a wet week is the problem. Walk the approach once and look up before delivery day, and leave the gate wide enough for the truck.
Dumpster Sizes in Cody
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Cody, 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 $785 to $859 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.
A 20 yard holds a kitchen down to the studs and the bathroom that went with it, at $845 to $965. If the debris is mostly shingles or tile, weight decides before space does — say so when you order.
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.
The 40 yard is the largest we place, $975 to $1108. Demolition volume. Check the approach before you order one, because it needs a long straight run.
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 adds height without adding length, so it still fits a normal drive. Good for a garage cleanout plus whatever came off the walls with it.
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 $880 to $990 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 Cody, WY
For homeowners
For a homeowner, the container usually lands on the driveway and holds a cleanout or a remodel: old furniture, drywall, flooring, the contents of a packed garage. Light, awkward material fills space long before it hits a weight limit, so pick the size by volume and load the big pieces flat.
For contractors
Contractors mostly need two things: a container that matches the phase and a swap that shows up before the full one blocks the next trade. Demolition and roofing run heavy, so those loads go in smaller containers loaded level; framing and finish stages fill big containers with light scrap.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Cody
- 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 Cody, WY?
Dumpster rental pricing in Cody 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 Cody
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $785 – $859 | $265 | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $845 – $965 | $480 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $880 – $990 | $505 | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $975 – $1108 | $595 | 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 Cody 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 (888) 232-2950 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 Cody
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
Cody dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Cody dumpster costs range from $785 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $1108 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.
Measure the job by its debris, not its square footage. One bathroom or a single room of flooring is a 10. A full kitchen, cabinets and counters included, fills a 20. Whole-floor gut jobs and big cleanouts run to a 30.
The larger sizes share the same footprint and only grow taller, so a bigger container does not need a bigger driveway. The exception is heavy material: shingles, tile, concrete or dirt hit the weight limit long before the container looks full, so mention them when you call and let the tonnage set the size.
Where the container will actually sit decides the answer. If it's on your own driveway or private property in Cody, no permit is required from the city. If it will sit in the street or on a public right-of-way, you'll need permission from the City of Cody before delivery — a call to the city offices with the address and your dates is the way to check. On unincorporated Park County land outside city limits, the county has the say.
Three things before the truck arrives. Surface: a level spot on pavement or packed gravel, long enough for the container plus a straight run in behind it. Clearance: nothing overhead, because the bed tilts higher than the container stands and a low limb or service line stops the drop cold. Access: move vehicles off the drive the night before and unlock any gate the driver would need.
Plywood under the rails keeps a soft or freshly sealed driveway from marking. Mark the spot if you will not be home. A blocked drop usually turns into a trip charge and a rescheduled delivery, which is the one avoidable cost in the whole rental.
Usually quickly, but it depends on the week. Deliveries are grouped by direction, so how soon a container reaches Cody comes down to what is already on the schedule for that part of the map.
If the project has a firm start date, call a couple of days ahead of it. Same-week drops happen all the time; counting on one without asking first is how people end up waiting.
The quote covers 10 days from delivery. That is enough for most single-project rentals, and the clock is not something anyone watches to the hour.
If the job runs long, call before the period ends and the rental can be extended for an additional daily fee. If you finish early, call and the container can come sooner — the pickup date moves if the truck has not been routed yet.
Cody's housing stock runs from the town's founding-era blocks to newer subdivisions, and street placement follows the street itself. On narrow older streets, a container has to leave fire lanes and sight lines clear, so the City of Cody generally requires a permit and cones around anything in the public way. On a commercial street like Yellowstone Avenue, plan on some coordination; on a quiet side street, it still needs approval before the truck arrives.
