What size fits your Durango job?
Durango jobs split two ways. Old homes near downtown need small dumpsters for cleanouts and bathroom remodels. New builds in Three Springs and the Animas Valley need big ones for framing waste and drywall. Pick the size that fits the debris, not the driveway.
- 10-yard dumpster: small cleanouts, one room, or heavy concrete and dirt.
- 15-yard dumpster: mid-size cleanouts and two-room remodels.
- 20-yard dumpster: the most rented size. Kitchens, roofing, and multi-room cleanouts.
- 30-yard dumpster: whole-house cleanouts and big renovations.
- 40-yard dumpster: major demolition and light bulky debris only.

Durango local facts: areas, ZIPs, permits, and disposal
Durango is the county seat of La Plata County, with 19,071 residents at the 2020 Census. ZIP codes are 81301, 81302, and 81303. Main areas are downtown, North Main, Florida Road, Bodo Park, Three Springs, and the Animas Valley. Fort Lewis College drives student turnover each spring and fall. Many homes are older Victorians and brick houses with tight alleys and short driveways.
Permits follow the universal rule in Durango. A dumpster on your own driveway needs no permit. A dumpster on a street or in a public right of way needs city approval first. Check with the City of Durango Public Works department before you place a street dumpster. Fees and lead times change, so confirm them direct. Do not block a sidewalk or a bike lane.
Debris from Durango loads goes to the City of Durango Transfer Station at 790 Tech Center Drive, just west of town on US Highway 160. The Bondad Landfill sits south of town for larger loads. Paint, oil, batteries, and electronics never go in a dumpster. Take those to the county household hazardous waste program instead. Many Durango homes sit on septic systems, so keep the truck off leach fields and soft ground.

How delivery and pickup work in Durango
Book online or call. Tell us the size, the delivery date, and where the dumpster should sit. The driver needs about 60 feet of straight clearance and 25 to 30 feet of vertical space. Steep driveways are common in Durango, so flag the grade when you book. We lay boards under the rails on paved driveways to spread the weight.
Standard rental runs 7 to 14 days. Call when the dumpster is full or your rental ends and we pick it up. Fill only to the top rail. Overfilled loads cannot travel safely on mountain highways. Snow can delay winter delivery, so book a day early from November through March. In Durango, pickup runs via the Durango Transfer Station.
For a Durango job, read the Colorado dumpster permit guide and the driveway protection guide before your delivery day. Both take two minutes and save real trouble.
