Pricing by City — Northern Kentucky
We deliver to every city in NKY at the same price. Here's what we commonly see in each area:
Boone County
- Florence — Our highest-volume NKY city. Homeowners along Mall Road and in the subdivisions off US-42 rent dumpsters for garage cleanouts, pre-move purges, and renovation debris. The 10-yard at $199 is the most popular choice.
- Burlington — Larger lots and older homes mean bigger cleanouts. The 15-yard is the go-to for Burlington families clearing basements and garages.
- Union — Newer subdivisions with HOAs. Most Union customers go with the 24-hour rental to keep the dumpster time short and stay within HOA rules.
- Walton — Rural properties with outbuildings. Shed demolitions and large-scale property cleanups are common — the 20-yard handles it all.
- Hebron — Close to CVG airport, lots of rental property turnovers. Landlords use our 10-yard for quick tenant cleanouts between leases.
Kenton County
- Covington — Older homes, tighter driveways, and a lot of renovation activity. The 15-yard is the most popular size. Some streets require careful placement — call us and we'll figure it out.
- Erlanger — Mix of residential and light commercial. Erlanger customers split evenly between the 10 and 15-yard for home and small business cleanouts.
- Fort Mitchell — Estate cleanouts and downsizing. Fort Mitchell homeowners frequently rent the 15 or 20-yard when clearing multi-generational homes.
- Independence — Fast-growing area with a mix of new construction and established neighborhoods. Construction debris and home renovation cleanups drive most of our Independence rentals.
- Fort Wright — Compact lots, established neighborhoods. The 10-yard fits most Fort Wright driveways and handles the typical cleanout.
- Edgewood — Similar to Fort Mitchell — older homes, families clearing out decades of belongings. The 15-yard is the most common rental.
Campbell County
- Newport — Dense urban area with rowhouses and historic properties. Renovation debris is the #1 use case. We place dumpsters on driveways, pads, and occasionally streets (check with the city on street permits).
- Fort Thomas — Beautiful older homes that generate significant renovation and cleanout debris. The 15-yard handles most Fort Thomas jobs.
- Alexandria — More rural, larger properties. Barn cleanouts, property clearing, and demolition work are common. The 20-yard gets the most use in Alexandria.
- Cold Spring — Growing suburb with a mix of new and established homes. Garage cleanouts and small renovations are the primary use cases — 10-yard is the popular pick.
