Dumpster Rental in
Cheney, WA
A container on a driveway off Lt. Col. Michael P. Anderson Memorial Highway or a Cheney job site is the same one call. ZTERS runs 10 through 40 yard roll-offs here; the 10 yard is $785-$875 for 10 days.
Mon–Fri 5am–5pm PT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
The price for every size is printed on this page, the order happens in one phone call, and the container arrives on the date you set. That is the arrangement, whether it is a weekend cleanout or a job site on its third container.
Driveways around Cheney tend to be standard residential width, sized for the older homes and properties near Eastern Washington University that make up much of the town. ZTERS delivers dumpsters for remodels, roof tear-offs, and cleanup work throughout the area. Roofing and siding debris from the older homes runs heavier per yard than typical remodel waste, so the right container follows what's actually coming out.
Cheney sits just west of Spokane, and most deliveries here land on standard residential driveways with room to spare. Check overhead for power lines and tree limbs along 1st Street or your property line — the truck tilts its bed high to lower a container, so low branches or lines are worth a quick look before delivery day. Ground around town is generally firm, and the flat residential grid means the truck's approach is rarely the issue it can be on hillier properties farther out. That said, a quick walk of the drive still saves time on delivery day.
Dumpster Sizes in Cheney
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Cheney, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
A 10 yard holds about three pickup-truck loads. That covers a closet-by-closet cleanout, a deck teardown, or the tile and mortar from one bathroom. $785 to $875.
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.
Most kitchen-plus-bath remodels land in the 20 yard, $875 to $1015. It takes the cabinets, counters, subfloor and trim in one go, with the footprint of a delivery truck.
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 at $1080 to $1245 holds bulk, not weight: the walls run eight feet, so loading means a ramp, a ladder or the rear door, and dense material hits the truck's legal limit long before the rim.
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 carries the awkward loads: couches, cabinets, forty bags from an attic. Taller than the 10, no longer, so the truck places it anywhere a 10 goes.
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.
Estate clearances and gut renovations across several rooms fill a 30 yard, priced $930 to $1040. The walls are tall, so big pieces go over the rail instead of through a door.
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 Cheney, WA
For homeowners
House projects throw out more shapes than pounds — mattresses, shelving, bagged clothes, torn-out cabinets. A 10 or 20 yard takes most of them. The exception is tile or plaster work, which runs heavy for its size; mention it when you order and the right container follows.
For contractors
A jobsite container earns its keep on turnaround. One account manager handles the drops and swaps, the size tracks what the phase produces, and the staging spot needs a straight approach so a loaded truck is not threading parked equipment. Heavy phases go in smaller containers loaded level.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Cheney
- 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 Cheney, WA?
Dumpster rental pricing in Cheney 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 Cheney
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $785 – $875 | $230 | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $875 – $1015 | $390 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $930 – $1040 | $460 | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $1080 – $1245 | $485 | 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 Cheney 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 (877) 588-7412 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 Cheney
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
Cheney dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Cheney dumpster costs range from $785 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $1245 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.
The landfill sets the rules, and the short version is: nothing hazardous. Paint, solvents and other liquids, motor oil, fuel, antifreeze, batteries, propane tanks, tires, asbestos, medical waste, and appliances still holding refrigerant all stay out.
Ordinary demolition and cleanout debris is fine. Concrete, brick and dirt can go in, but they are billed by weight, so flag them when you book. When in doubt about an item, ask first; it beats paying to have it pulled back out.
Street placement in Cheney may require a right-of-way permit from the city. If your driveway won't work, check about street drop options when you call ZTERS.
It depends where the trucks already are that week. Containers run routes, so a drop gets grouped with other stops heading the same direction, and how quickly one reaches Cheney moves with how full the schedule already is.
Call with the dates you have in mind and ask for the current window. Ordering a day or two before you actually want to start loading is the habit that saves people a scramble.
Cheney's flat residential lots make for straightforward driveway placement, and no permit stands in the way — Spokane County does not require one for a dumpster on private property. Call to confirm your address and arrange your delivery date.
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.
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.
