10 Yard Dumpster Rental in Franklin, TN

The 10 yard is Franklin Bros Dumpster Rental’s smallest roll-off, and it’s the right call when the job is genuinely small — a garage that needs to be cleared out, a single-layer roof tear-off, a concrete slab or old walkway coming out, or a modest yard cleanup. It’s not the box for a whole-house project, but for a contained job it’s the most economical and easiest to place of the five sizes we run.

At 14 ft long by 7.5 ft wide by 3.5 ft tall, the 10 yard holds about 3 pickup-truck loads of debris. The low wall height also makes it easy to load by hand — useful if you’re tossing in shingles, drywall, or bagged debris without a tractor or skid steer to help.

Weight allowance on the 10 yard runs 1–2 tons, which covers a mixed load of household debris without a second thought. Where it matters is dense, single-material loads — a full box of concrete, brick, or dirt can hit that 1–2 ton ceiling well before the container looks full. If that’s your project, tell us when you book so we can size you correctly instead of guessing.

Why the 10 Yard Works for Smaller Franklin Jobs

A lot of properties around downtown Franklin — the blocks off Main Street, the older homes near the River District, in-town lots with narrow side yards — simply don’t have room for a large container. The 10 yard’s compact footprint means it sits easily on a standard driveway or a tight parking pad without blocking the rest of the property, which makes it a natural fit for smaller in-town jobs across the Franklin area.

10 Yard vs. 15 Yard — Which Way to Go

If your project is one room, one small job, or a straightforward concrete or dirt haul, the 10 yard is usually enough and keeps things simple. Step up to the 15 yard once you’re combining a couple of projects — say a garage cleanout plus some yard debris — or if you’re not fully sure how much you’ll generate. When in doubt, call us at (629) 245-5054; we’d rather size you correctly up front than have you run short mid-project.

What Doesn’t Fit / Weight Considerations

The 1–2 ton weight allowance is usually the real limiting factor, not the volume. A full load of concrete, brick, or dirt can hit that cap well before the box looks full — if that describes your job, see our concrete and heavy debris page or tell us when you book. Electronics, paint, solvents, and other hazardous items are never allowed in any size, including the 10 yard.

Typical Rental Period

Most 10 yard rentals run a standard short-term period, which fits how these jobs usually go — a weekend project or a few days of steady work. Let us know when you book if you’ll need it longer; we can work out a timeline that fits your project.
