If you're searching 40 yard dumpster rental prices near me, a 40 yard dumpster rental in Akron, OH runs from about $91 a month up to $500 depending on how long you keep it and what's going in it, with daily rentals in the same size class starting near $51. It's the biggest roll off Akron Porta Pros puts on a driveway or job site, built for full tear-outs and new construction.
The 40-yard dumpster size is the largest option in the dumpster sizes and dimensions lineup, and it holds roughly eight pickup truck loads of debris. Whether you call it a 40 yard trash dumpster or a roll off dumpster 40 yard box, it's the same unit built for volume. Akron Porta Pros needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the delivery truck to set one down safely, so measure your driveway or lot before you book. That clearance rule matters more in tighter Akron neighborhoods than out in Green, which sits about 10.8 miles south and tends to have more open lots. If your space is smaller, look at the 20 yard dumpster rental or 30 yard dumpster rental instead. Whatever size you land on, dumpster weight limits still apply, and going over triggers extra fees, so check what you're loading before the truck shows up. Heavy debris like shingles or concrete fills the weight limit long before it fills the box, which is a common surprise on remodel jobs. For general roll-off dumpster rental guidance across all sizes, that page breaks down which box fits which job.
Big jobs call for the big box, and this is where a 40 yard roll-off dumpster rental earns its keep. Whole-house cleanouts, roofing tear-offs on larger homes, commercial buildouts, and new construction dumpster rental projects are the usual fit. If you're gutting a property near downtown Akron or clearing a lot ahead of a build, a 40 yarder keeps you from ordering a second pull mid-job. Renters closer to Tallmadge, about 6.5 miles east of Akron, or Cuyahoga Falls, 9.0 miles north, rent 40 yard dumpster units for the same teardown and renovation work. Before you order, check dumpster permit requirements if the container sits in the street or right of way, since placement rules vary and need confirming with the city. Also review what cannot go in a dumpster; items like tires, paint and certain electronics usually need separate disposal, and knowing that ahead of time saves a redelivery fee.
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| Week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| Month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
Delivery is billed separately, and that fee typically runs $100 to $150 for a standard delivery window, more if you need a rush or weekend drop. For the full breakdown of what drives price up or down, the dumpster rental cost page covers factors like fill level and rental length in more depth. If you're still deciding on size versus budget, comparing this page against the 10 yard dumpster rental and 40 yard storage container options (for jobs needing storage instead of disposal) can help narrow it down. Site cleanup jobs sometimes also need temporary fence rental around the dumpster for safety, and OSHA 1926.25 requires that scrap and debris be cleared from work areas regularly, which is part of why contractors size up rather than order multiple small pulls.
Most Akron rentals run by the day, week or month, and pricing scales with duration, not the other way around. A week-long rental costs more than a single day but less per day than renting daily repeatedly. Talk to Akron Porta Pros about your project timeline before booking.
Maybe, depending on where it sits. If the dumpster goes on the street or public right of way, placement needs confirming with the city. Driveway or private lot placement usually avoids that step. Check porta potty permit requirements for a sense of how Akron handles similar right-of-way questions.
Tires, paint, batteries, refrigerants and some electronics are typically excluded. Loading these can mean rejected pickup or added fees. See what cannot go in a dumpster for the full list before you start filling it.

No. The rental price covers the box and rental period; weight overages bill separately based on what you load. Review dumpster weight limits so heavy material like roofing or concrete doesn't push your bill higher than expected.
