Construction and demolition debris is heavy, and that weight is exactly where other Louisville rental companies bury a hidden charge. A roofing tear-off or a poured-concrete slab can push a bin far past the weight most quotes assume, then a tonnage overage lands on the final invoice. The flat pricing here removes that surprise: the 10-yard is $595, the 20-yard is $695, and the 40-yard is $895, and heavy C&D material does not change those numbers. This is a rental where you load the bin yourself, it is not full-service junk removal, so a crew does not carry debris out of the structure for you.
Size the bin to the job, not the other way around. A single-bathroom gut or a small deck teardown in the Highlands or Germantown fits a 10-yard, which holds roughly four pickup-truck loads. A full roof tear-off on a St. Matthews ranch or a kitchen demolition in Crescent Hill usually wants a 20-yard. A whole-house remodel, an addition framing-out in Clifton, or a Butchertown commercial buildout points to the 30-yard at $795 or the 40-yard at $895. The trade-off is straightforward: a bigger bin needs more driveway or curb length, while a smaller bin costs less but may need a second swap-out on a large project. If the debris is dense and heavy, concrete, brick, block, dirt, a 10 or 15-yard is the smart pick, because those materials fill weight capacity long before they fill volume in a 30 or 40-yard.
Placement matters on Louisville's older streets. Narrow lanes and tight alleys in Old Louisville, Portland, and parts of Shively leave little room, so a bin often sits on the driveway rather than the curb. Boards are set under the roll-off wheels to protect the driveway surface. When a bin must sit on a public street or right-of-way, the city of Louisville Metro requires a permit, and that applies more often on the dense residential blocks near Bardstown Road than on a wide Fern Creek lot with a long driveway. Confirm the placement spot and street when you call so the driver knows before the truck arrives.
A numbered rundown of how a C&D rental runs: 1) call (502) 788-7363 and describe the demolition or build and the street. 2) Pick a size against the debris type and the space at the site. 3) The bin is delivered and set on boards where you point. 4) You load it over your rental window. 5) One call brings the pickup, and the flat price already covers hauling and disposal. Because C&D loads are dense, keep the fill level with the top rail, an overloaded, heaped bin cannot be legally hauled and has to be leveled before pickup.
