Concrete & Heavy Debris Dumpster Rental in Berks County

Concrete, dirt, brick and asphalt are priced by weight, not space — a cubic yard of concrete weighs roughly two tons. That's why heavy debris goes in a dedicated 10-yard box with a hard weight ceiling (industry standard: about 10 tons / 20,000 lb). Dedicated loads only: mixing concrete with household trash contaminates the load and costs more for everyone.

• One cubic yard of broken concrete ≈ 2 tons — a 10-yard box filled with concrete is far over its limit; load heavy debris in shallow, even layers as directed on your quote.
• Dirt must be clean fill — no contaminated soil.
• Asphalt, brick and block follow the same dedicated-load rule.
