15-Yard Dumpster Aurora

The 15-yard dumpster is the middle-ground container: bigger than the 10-yard ($595) that suits a single-room cleanout, smaller than the 20-yard ($695) built for whole-house projects. It measures about 16 feet long and 4 feet high, so it drops onto a standard two-car driveway in Saddle Rock or Tollgate Crossing without blocking the garage door. The 4-foot wall height means you can toss bagged debris and broken furniture over the side instead of walking it up a ramp.

A 15-yard container fits a kitchen or bathroom gut, a garage clean-out that outgrew the curb bins, or a single-layer shingle tear-off on a smaller Aurora Highlands or Meadow Hills roof. If your load is mostly heavy material, concrete, dirt, or a full asphalt-shingle roof, the lower profile keeps weight manageable, since dense debris fills a low container fast. The rule of thumb: if you are clearing one or two rooms plus some construction scrap, the 15-yard is the right call; if you are emptying an entire Southshore basement or doing a full remodel, step up to the 20-yard so you do not book a second haul.

Pricing is flat and published on purpose. The $650 covers the drop, the pickup, and the dump run, a dumpster rental is not junk removal, so you load it yourself and we haul it when it is full or your days run out. There is no surprise tonnage line and no fuel surcharge, which is the fee that trips up homeowners near Murphy Creek and Sable Ridge who priced a cheaper-looking rental elsewhere. Prohibited items, wet paint, tires, batteries, appliances with freon, and hazardous chemicals, are excluded by Arapahoe County disposal rules and cannot go in any size.

Booking works in three steps: 1) call (720) 901-5025 and name your Aurora neighborhood and street; 2) pick a drop spot on the driveway, or ask about a right-of-way permit if it must sit on the street in Dam East/West or Hutchinson Heights; 3) confirm your delivery window and pickup day. Placement on private property like a driveway needs no city permit; a container parked on a public Aurora street may require a right-of-way permit, which is worth checking before drop-off.
