Heavy Debris
Concrete Disposal Dumpsters in Clarksville, TN
Cured concrete, brick, block, tile, and dirt are accepted in every Underdog Dumpster size, and they count against the same weight allowance as any other load. There is no separate heavy-debris rule, no dedicated box, and no surcharge: one flat rate by size, an allowance listed beside every price, and $60 per additional ton over it.
The practical point is that heavy debris reaches the allowance long before the box is full. Load heavy material only partway and mix it with lighter debris, or split it across rentals, and call 931-453-0667 before booking a heavy-only load so the right size is chosen. Every size and price is on our page for dumpster rental in Clarksville, TN.
Which Size for Concrete Disposal
Allowances by size: 3,000 lbs (10 yd), 4,500 lbs (15 yd), 6,000 lbs (20 yd), 7,500 lbs (25 yd). The 10 yard at $400 is built for heavy debris like brick, concrete, or dirt in limited amounts, and it is usually the right box for a heavy-only load because a larger container invites a load that is far over the allowance. The 15 yard adds 1,500 pounds of allowance for $25 more; the 20 yard, with 6,000 pounds, suits a remodel where concrete and tile ride along with lighter debris.
How Heavy Debris Is Priced
The same way as everything else. Each size includes a weight allowance: 3,000 lbs (10 yd), 4,500 lbs (15 yd), 6,000 lbs (20 yd), 7,500 lbs (25 yd). Loads over the allowance are $60 per additional ton under the service agreement you sign at checkout, so every 2,000 pounds over adds $60. Delivery, pickup, and the rental period are in the flat rate, and there is no heavy-debris surcharge on top of it.
We do not publish how many tons of concrete a given box holds or a per-yard weight for brick, block, or dirt, because the number depends on the material and how it is loaded. What we do publish is the allowance and the overage, and that is enough to plan against.
Loading Heavy Material Without an Overage
Fill the container only partway with the heavy material, spread in a flat layer across the floor rather than piled at one end, and put the lighter debris on top. A box that is half full of concrete and half full of framing scrap uses its volume and its allowance together instead of blowing the allowance at a quarter of the volume.
On a job with a lot of concrete, split it across rentals: two 10 yard loads carry 6,000 pounds of allowance between them for $800, while one box driven far over its allowance pays $60 on every extra ton. Call 931-453-0667 before booking a heavy-only load, describe the material and roughly how much there is, and the dispatcher picks the size and the number of loads with you.
Wet Concrete and What Stays Out
Prohibited materials include hazardous waste, wet concrete (unless pre-arranged), batteries, propane tanks, medical waste, liquids, and contaminated soils. Prohibited materials must not be loaded; additional charges apply under your rental agreement if they are found in the container. Cured, broken concrete is fine. Wet or uncured concrete is prohibited unless pre-arranged: call before you book, describe it, and the dispatcher tells you whether and how it can be loaded.
Placement follows the same rules as any drop: private property, a level and firm spot, about 40 feet of straight approach, tip to tail, and 13 feet of overhead clearance. Every delivery and pickup includes heavy-duty plastic protection strips under the container to spread the load and reduce direct contact with concrete or asphalt. Protection strips reduce the risk of surface damage; they do not guarantee against damage to weak pavement, existing cracks, or sealcoat. Provide a safe, level, accessible placement area.

Concrete Disposal Dumpsters FAQs
Can I put concrete in the dumpster?
Yes. Cured, broken concrete is accepted in every size, along with brick, block, tile, and dirt. It counts against the same weight allowance as any other load, 3,000 pounds on the 10 yard up to 7,500 pounds on the 25 yard, with loads over the allowance at $60 per additional ton. Wet or uncured concrete is prohibited unless pre-arranged.
Is there a separate rule or fee for heavy debris?
No. Heavy debris follows the same weight allowances as every other load, with no dedicated box and no surcharge. The only extra charge is the standard overage, $60 per additional ton over the allowance, which heavy material reaches faster than household debris does.
What happens if I go over the allowance?
Loads over the included weight allowance are billed at $60 per additional ton under the service agreement you sign at checkout. Every 2,000 pounds over adds $60. Loading heavy material partway and mixing in lighter debris, or splitting it across rentals, is how you stay under.
Which size should I book for a heavy-only load?
Call 931-453-0667 before booking. Describe the material and roughly how much there is, and the dispatcher picks the size and the number of loads. The 10 yard, with 3,000 pounds included, is usually the right box for concrete alone; a larger container mostly adds volume you cannot use without going over.
What does pre-arranged mean for wet concrete?
Wet or uncured concrete is prohibited unless you call before you book and the dispatcher confirms whether and how it can be loaded. Cured, broken concrete needs no arrangement; it is accepted in any size against the normal allowance.
