Since 1994, we’ve been Evansville’s trusted partner for roll-off dumpster rentals. Whether you’re tackling a weekend garage cleanout, managing a large-scale construction project, or coordinating an estate cleanup, we deliver fast, affordable, and reliable service throughout Vanderburgh County and beyond. As a family-owned business, we treat every customer like a neighbor; because that’s exactly what you are. We pride ourselves on transparent pricing, same-day delivery options, and clean, well-maintained dumpsters for projects of any size. When you need a dumpster rental in Evansville, we’re here to make the process simple, stress-free, and tailored to your timeline.
Eric Gries Disposal began in 1994 when our founder, Eric Gries, saw a real need in the Evansville community. After working in construction for years, Eric noticed how difficult it was for homeowners and small contractors to find reliable, affordable dumpster rental services. Too often, people were left waiting days for delivery, dealing with hidden fees, or struggling to get straight answers about pricing. Eric knew there had to be a better way; so he bought his first truck, invested in a handful of quality roll-off dumpsters, and made a promise to every customer: no runarounds, no surprises, just honest service.
What started as a one-man operation has grown into one of Vanderburgh County’s most trusted waste management providers. Over the past three decades, we’ve served thousands of residential, commercial, and industrial clients across Indiana. From small home renovation projects to multi-phase construction developments, we’ve handled it all. But even as we’ve grown, our mission has stayed the same: provide homeowners, contractors, and businesses with dependable debris removal solutions they can count on.
We’re still family-owned, still locally operated, and still committed to treating every job; big or small; with the same care and attention. Our team knows Evansville inside and out, and we understand the unique needs of this community. When you call us, you’re not getting a call center or a faceless corporation. You’re getting real people who live and work right here, and who genuinely care about making your project easier.
Choosing the right dumpster size can save you time, money, and hassle. Whether you need a compact container for a small cleanout or a large roll-off for heavy construction debris, we have the perfect fit for your project. Here’s a breakdown of our most popular sizes and what they’re best suited for.
10 Yard Dumpster Rental
Our 10-yard dumpster is ideal for basement cleanouts, garage decluttering, and small renovation projects. It holds approximately 3-4 pickup truck loads, making it a smart choice for homeowners who need to dispose of furniture, household junk, or light construction materials without taking up too much driveway space.
12 Yard Dumpster Rental
Perfect for medium-sized home projects like attic cleanouts, deck removal, or estate cleanups. This size holds around 4-5 pickup truck loads and offers a little extra capacity without overwhelming your property. It’s one of our most requested sizes for residential customers.
15 Yard Dumpster Rental
If you’re planning a home renovation, removing old flooring, or handling a larger estate cleanout, the 15-yard dumpster is a solid middle-ground option. It holds approximately 5-6 pickup truck loads and can handle bulkier items like carpeting, drywall, and appliances.
20 Yard Dumpster Rental
Our 20-yard roll-off is the go-to choice for roofing projects, large home remodels, and construction debris removal. Holding around 6-8 pickup truck loads, it’s spacious enough for significant volumes of shingles, lumber, and demo materials; yet still manageable for residential driveways.
30 Yard Dumpster Rental
When you’re managing new construction, major demolitions, or commercial cleanouts, the 30-yard dumpster delivers serious capacity. It holds approximately 9-12 pickup truck loads and can accommodate heavy, bulky materials. Contractors love this size for multi-day job sites.
40 Yard Dumpster Rental
Our largest option, the 40-yard dumpster, is built for large-scale commercial projects, multi-property cleanouts, and jobs that generate substantial volumes of debris. Holding around 12-16 pickup truck loads, it’s ideal for industrial work, large demolitions, and major renovations where you need maximum capacity.
10 Yard Lowboy
We also offer a 10-yard lowboy dumpster with lower sides, making it easier to load heavy materials like dirt, concrete, and asphalt. It’s a favorite among landscapers and contractors working with dense debris that’s difficult to throw into taller containers.
Not sure what size you need? Give us a call. Our team can walk you through your project details and recommend the right dumpster size for your budget and timeline. We’ve been doing this for over 30 years; we know how to match the container to the job.
We understand that when you need a dumpster, you usually need it now. That’s why we’ve built our service around speed, flexibility, and transparency.
Need a dumpster today? We offer same-day dumpster rental throughout Evansville and Vanderburgh County for customers who call before noon. Whether it’s an emergency cleanout, an unexpected project delay, or a last-minute renovation, we’ll do everything we can to get a roll-off to your site fast. Next-day delivery is available across our entire service area in Indiana, and our scheduling team is always ready to accommodate urgent timelines.
Every project moves at its own pace, and we work around yours; not the other way around. Weekend dumpster rentals are perfect for DIY homeowners tackling projects over a Saturday and Sunday. Weekly rentals work well for smaller renovations or cleanouts that need a bit more time. For construction sites and long-term projects, we offer extended rental options with easy renewal if you need to keep the dumpster a little longer. No pressure, no penalties; just straightforward service that fits your schedule.
We believe in honest, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. When you request a quote, we’ll explain exactly what’s included: delivery, pickup, disposal, and your rental period. We’ll also clearly outline weight limits and let you know what additional charges might apply if you go over; but we’ll work with you to choose the right size so that doesn’t happen. Competitive rates, clear communication, and budget-friendly options for residential customers are what set us apart from other dumpster rental companies in Evansville.
We take our environmental responsibilities seriously. Whenever possible, we recycle construction materials, divert reusable items from landfills, and dispose of all debris at certified facilities that meet state and federal standards. Responsible waste management isn’t just good for the planet; it’s good for our community. When you rent from us, you can feel confident that your junk is being handled the right way.
We serve a wide range of customers across Evansville, Vanderburgh County, and throughout Indiana. Here’s a closer look at who we work with and how we help.
Homeowners turn to us for home cleanout projects, moving and relocation debris, renovation and remodeling waste, estate cleanouts after a loved one passes, and seasonal garage, basement, or attic decluttering. We also handle storm cleanup and yard waste disposal after severe weather rolls through. Our residential dumpster rentals are designed to be affordable, easy to schedule, and gentle on your property; we use boards under the dumpster to protect driveways and lawns.
Contractors across Indiana rely on us for construction dumpsters on active job sites, demolition projects that generate large volumes of debris, roof tear-offs and shingle disposal, and concrete or heavy material removal. We also offer contractor accounts for businesses that need dumpsters regularly across multiple projects. Fast delivery, reliable pickup, and flexible scheduling help keep your crews productive and your sites clean.
Property managers, retail businesses, and commercial facilities count on us for waste management solutions that keep their operations running smoothly. Whether it’s a retail renovation, office building cleanout, HOA community project, or multi-family property maintenance, we provide the right equipment and responsive service to meet tight deadlines and budget requirements.
Landscapers and homeowners working on outdoor projects trust us for tree removal debris, brush and branch disposal, storm damage cleanup, and seasonal yard waste. Our roll-off dumpsters make it easy to haul away large volumes of organic material, dirt, sod, and other landscaping debris without multiple trips to the landfill.
We’ve been around long enough to know what matters: reliability, honesty, and respect for your time. Here’s what you can expect when you choose Eric Gries Disposal.

| Question/Topic | Answer & Guidance |
|---|---|
How do I select the correct dumpster size? |
Consider the type and volume of debris you're disposing of. For example, a single-room cleanout typically needs a 10-12 yard dumpster, while a full roof replacement works best with a 20-yard. If you're unsure, our team can help you choose based on your specific project; we've been doing this since 1994 and can estimate the right size in minutes. It's usually better to go slightly larger than to risk needing a second dumpster. |
What is the fill line and why does it matter? |
Every dumpster has a maximum fill line clearly marked on the side. Debris must stay at or below this line for safe transport. Overloading can result in additional fees, delays, or refusal of pickup due to DOT regulations. Load heavy items on the bottom and distribute weight evenly. If you reach the fill line before your project is complete, just give us a call; we offer flexible scheduling for additional pickups or exchanges. |
What items are prohibited in dumpsters? |
We cannot accept hazardous materials including paint, chemicals, solvents, pesticides, oil, gasoline, propane tanks, asbestos, car batteries, tires, medical waste, or certain electronics. These items require special disposal methods. Most household junk, construction debris, furniture, appliances (properly prepared), yard waste, and building materials are perfectly fine. When in doubt, just ask; we're happy to clarify what's acceptable for your specific debris type. |
Do I need a permit for my dumpster? |
If you're placing the dumpster on your own private property (driveway, yard, parking lot), you typically don't need a permit in Evansville. However, if it needs to go on a public street, sidewalk, or right-of-way, you'll likely need a permit from the city. We know the local regulations inside and out and can advise you on whether your specific situation requires a permit and help guide you through the application process if needed. |
Where should I place my dumpster? |
Choose a flat, solid surface like a driveway or parking area with clear overhead access (watch for low-hanging wires, tree branches, or structures). Make sure there's enough room for our delivery truck to maneuver; typically 60 feet of straight-line access. Avoid placing dumpsters on grass or soft ground where they might sink. We offer driveway protection boards to prevent damage to asphalt, concrete, or pavers. Our drivers will work with you to find the best spot during delivery. |
How long can I keep the dumpster? |
Our standard rental periods are 7-10 days, which works perfectly for most residential and commercial projects. Need it longer? No problem; we offer flexible scheduling with easy extensions. Just let us know your timeline and we'll accommodate your project needs. We also offer weekend rentals for quick jobs. There's no rush; keep it as long as you need it with our straightforward extension options. |
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster? |
We offer same-day delivery for most orders placed by noon in Evansville and Vanderburgh County. All other orders are guaranteed next-day delivery. We understand that projects don't always wait, which is why fast and reliable delivery is one of our core commitments. When you call for a quote, we'll give you an exact delivery window and stick to it; our team shows up on time, every time. |
How do I schedule pickup when I'm done? |
Just give us a call when your dumpster is ready for pickup and we'll schedule it right away; usually within 24-48 hours depending on your location and our route schedule. You can also coordinate pickup timing in advance if you know your project timeline. We make the entire process easy from start to finish. Once we pick it up, we handle all disposal responsibly and follow eco-friendly disposal practices including recycling whenever possible. |
Will the dumpster damage my property? |
We take great care with your property. Our professional delivery drivers are experienced with proper placement techniques. We offer protective boards and mats for driveways, and we'll work with you to position the dumpster in the safest location possible. The dumpster will sit on rubber wheels and a metal frame; when placed on solid surfaces with protection, damage is extremely rare. We've been serving homeowners and businesses in Evansville since 1994 with thousands of successful deliveries. |
What does your pricing include? |
Our transparent pricing includes delivery, placement, rental period, pickup, disposal fees, and the included tonnage listed above. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. If you exceed the included weight limit, additional tonnage fees apply (we'll explain these upfront). Prohibited items, extremely heavy materials, or special disposal requirements may incur additional costs, but we'll always discuss these with you before proceeding. You'll know exactly what you're paying before we deliver. |
