Boise trash service is franchised to Republic Services: temporary roll-offs from other providers are only allowed for projects under 90 days. Local private prices: Gem State Dumpsters (15 yd from $285, 20 yd from $345) and Dump & Rent (15 yd $500, 20 yd $550). The 30/40-yard figures are the City of Boise's published per-haul charges only — they exclude delivery ($73.05), daily rent and disposal fees. No published all-in 10-yard price exists for Boise. Your exact quote depends on debris type, how long you keep the bin, and how far the truck drives.
Weight overages. Go over the included tonnage and most haulers charge roughly $50–$100 per extra ton. Heavy debris (concrete, dirt, shingles) hits the limit fast — that's what the smaller 10-yard "heavy debris" bins exist for.
Extra days. The standard rental is 7 days. Extra days typically run $10–$25 per day, or a flat fee per week. Ask before you book, not after.
Debris type. Clean construction debris is cheapest. Mixed household junk is mid-range. Tires, mattresses, appliances with refrigerant, paint and anything hazardous cost extra or are refused outright.
Driveway or private property: no permit. Putting a dumpster in an on-street parking space requires a Temporary Use Permit from Boise Parking Services (City Code 6-10A-20 names dumpsters specifically), with the area fenced or barricaded — and because the Ada County Highway District controls most Boise streets, obstructing traffic also needs prior written ACHD approval.
Book the size you're sure about, not the size you hope for — one 20-yard bin is cheaper than two 10-yard swaps. Keep the rental inside 7 days. Load heavy material evenly and don't fill past the rim; an overloaded bin gets refused and you pay a trip fee anyway. If your project is flexible, ask about weekday delivery pricing — some haulers discount off-peak drops.
