Same-Day Dumpster Delivery
Same-day roll-off dumpster delivery is available for many orders placed before the cutoff.
Same-Day Dumpster Delivery
Same-day delivery is useful when a cleanup starts suddenly, a contractor needs debris control, a closing deadline moves up, or a customer realizes normal trash service will not handle the load. Book early with a clear delivery address, placement location, and material type so the order can be routed correctly.
Weekday same-day requests should be made before 3 PM. Saturday requests should be made before noon. A clear placement area, accurate delivery address, and known material type help prevent delays. FTH Services uses the order details to route the delivery and contact the customer if any delivery issue needs attention.
Typical Items for This Service
Information to have ready
Delivery address, placement spot, debris type, preferred size, gate codes, HOA restrictions, and truck access notes.

What still applies
Standard rental terms, included weight, overage, prohibited-item rules, top-rail loading, and safe-access requirements.
Typical Weight Chart
Use these estimates to plan the dumpster size and avoid surprise overage. Standard rentals include the disposal weight shown for the selected dumpster, and weight over the included amount is billed at $85 per ton, prorated.
| Common item or material | Typical planning weight | Dumpster planning note |
|---|---|---|
| Couch or sofa | about 100–250 lb each | Bulky items affect size choice more than weight. |
| Mattress | about 50–150 lb each | Load first, standing vertically on the long edge when possible. Rain can increase weight. |
| Drywall / remodel debris | about 1.6–2.2 lb per square foot of 1/2-inch sheet | Heavy remodel loads may need a weight-focused size discussion. |
| Boxes of household items | about 10–50 lb each | Books, tools, and dishes are much heavier than clothing or decor. |
| Roofing shingles | about 230–400 lb per roofing square | Plan roofing debris carefully because weight builds quickly. |
These are planning estimates only. Actual scale weight varies by size, moisture, material density, brand, construction method, and how the load is packed. FTH Services uses disposal facility weight tickets for final billing when overage applies.
