A 40 yard dumpster holds about 10 to 12 pickup truck loads and runs, per the fact bank, roughly $91 to $500 a month depending on rental length, weight and haul distance. It is the biggest roll-off Hollywood Porta Pros stocks. Most whole-house cleanouts and full teardown jobs in Hollywood, FL call for this size over a smaller 20 yard dumpster.
A 40 yard box runs long and tall, built to swallow bulky construction debris without stacking games. It needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the delivery truck, so a driveway or alley that dead-ends fast will not work. Before delivery day, check clearance and confirm your ground can bear the load. If you are not sure this size fits your Hollywood lot, the dumpster sizes and dimensions page walks through all four sizes side by side, or compare against a 30 yard dumpster rental if your pile is smaller than expected. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before drop-off, since we have not verified a specific Hollywood ordinance for that. For anything going onto a public street or sidewalk, check dumpster permit requirements first. Overloading past the rated weight brings extra charges, and dumpster weight limits explains how that gets calculated before the truck ever shows up.
Price depends on rental length, not just size. Here is where the 40 yard sits against daily, weekly and monthly rental bands measured across our pricing data:
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| Week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| Month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
A single weekend project runs $390 to $497 as a flat rate rather than a day multiplied out. Delivery is billed separately, typically $100 to $150 for a same-day drop in Hollywood, with a rush delivery fee climbing higher if you need it same-morning. For a full cost breakdown across every size, see dumpster rental cost or narrow in on the 10 yard dumpster rental if a 40 turns out to be overkill for your project.
No. Certain materials are banned regardless of size, including tires, batteries, paint, and most hazardous chemicals, and mixing them in can void the haul or bring a fee. The full rundown of banned items lives on what cannot go in a dumpster, worth a read before loading day, especially for renovation debris that might include old solvents or aerosol cans. Keeping a jobsite clear as you fill the box also matters under OSHA 1926.25, which calls for scrap and debris to be cleared from work areas as a housekeeping standard. If you are running a full teardown with a dumpster, portable toilets and fencing together, construction site services bundles that planning into one call, and a temporary fence rental keeps the open box secured from the street overnight.
Homeowners doing a full property clear in Dania Beach, 2.5 miles north of Hollywood, or Pembroke Park, 6.9 miles south, book the same 40 yard size for estate cleanouts. Hollywood contractors gutting a multi-unit building typically pair the dumpster with a construction dumpster rental plan that schedules a swap mid-project rather than waiting for one box to fill past its line.
Rental length is flexible, from a single day up to a full month, and pricing scales with duration rather than a flat per-day rate. Longer renovation jobs in Hollywood typically book by the week or month since it works out cheaper per day than repeated daily rentals.
Maybe, depending on where it sits. Placement on private property like a driveway usually needs no permit, but curb or street placement needs confirming with the city. See porta potty permit requirements for the general permitting logic that also applies to dumpster placement.
Weight limits vary by what is loaded, since concrete and shingles weigh far more per cubic yard than household junk. Going over the rated tonnage brings an overage charge, detailed further on dumpster weight limits.
Same-day delivery is possible in Hollywood, but booking a few days ahead guarantees the size and date you want. Rush jobs pay a higher delivery fee, so early booking through request a quote saves money.
Yes. Contractors running full site setups often order a dumpster alongside a portable toilet rental and a storage container rental in one delivery window, cutting down on separate truck trips to the same Hollywood address.
