The 10-yard dumpster measures roughly 12 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 3.5 feet tall, low enough that most people can load debris over the side without a walk-in door. That compact footprint is why it is the right container for tight San Antonio driveways in Alamo Heights and the narrow lots off South Alamo Street in Southtown, where a 30-yard box simply will not fit between the house and the fence. It holds about 4 pickup-truck loads, which covers a single-room remodel, a bathroom tear-out, or a garage cleanout.
Size choice comes down to what is filling your driveway. Choose the 10-yard at $595 for a bathroom remodel, a small deck removal, or hauling out old flooring from a Monte Vista bungalow. Step up to the 20-yard at $695 once a whole-kitchen gut or a two-room addition is on the table, and reserve the 30-yard at $795 for a full roof tear-off on a larger Stone Oak or Timberwood Park home. The trade-off is straightforward: the 10-yard eats far less driveway space, but a big job outgrows its 10 cubic yards fast, so undersizing means paying for a second haul.
One detail worth knowing before booking: the 10-yard is the go-to for heavy, dense debris like the concrete, brick, and tile common in older Terrell Hills and King William renovations. Dense material hits a container's weight limit long before it fills the volume, so the low-sided 10-yard is built to carry that load, and because the $595 is flat, all-in pricing, a heavy load of concrete does not trigger a tonnage surcharge the way it would with call-for-quote vendors.
Booking runs in three plain steps. First, call (830) 380-5818 and describe the debris and the neighborhood, Government Hill, Tobin Hill, Shavano Park, wherever the pile sits. Second, confirm the flat $595 price and pick a drop-off window. Third, clear a spot roughly 22 feet long for the truck to set and lift the box; a driveway or a flat stretch of yard works. A dumpster rental is not junk removal, you load the container yourself, then it is hauled once you say it is full or the rental period ends.
