Steelhead Dumpster Rentals started in 2007 with a simple mission: provide Grand Rapids with honest, reliable waste management solutions that don’t come with hidden fees or hassle. What began as a small, family-owned operation with just a handful of dumpsters has grown into one of the most trusted names in roll-off dumpster rentals across Kent County. But even as we’ve expanded our fleet and our reach, we’ve never lost sight of what made us successful in the first place; putting our customers first.
We’re not a faceless national chain. We’re your neighbors. We live and work right here in Grand Rapids, and we’ve built our reputation one dumpster delivery at a time. Our team knows the ins and outs of local permitting, understands Michigan weather challenges, and has strong relationships with regional recycling facilities and transfer stations. We’ve handled everything from single-room remodels to large-scale demolition projects, and we bring that experience to every job.
Our core values are simple: reliability, transparency, excellent customer service, and environmental responsibility. We believe that renting a dumpster should be easy, affordable, and stress-free. That’s why we’ve spent nearly two decades refining our processes, upgrading our equipment, and training our team to deliver the best possible experience. When you call us, you’re getting real people who care about your project and are ready to help you find the perfect waste removal solution.
No two projects are exactly alike, which is why we offer a complete range of dumpster rental services designed to fit any situation. From quick weekend rentals to long-term construction site support, we’ve got you covered. Our fleet includes dumpsters in multiple sizes, and we offer flexible rental periods; whether you need a dumpster for a day, a week, a month, or longer. We pride ourselves on our quick turnaround times, responsive scheduling, and ability to accommodate last-minute requests.
Whether you’re a homeowner preparing for a spring cleanout or a contractor managing debris removal on a commercial build, we provide the same level of professional service and support. Our goal is to make waste management the easiest part of your project so you can focus on what really matters.
Homeowners across Grand Rapids trust us for all kinds of residential projects. Planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel? We’ll deliver the perfect-sized dumpster right to your driveway and protect your property with placement boards. Cleaning out your basement, attic, or garage? We make it easy to haul away years of accumulated clutter in one go. Tackling yard work, landscaping, or storm cleanup? Our dumpsters handle brush, branches, soil, and debris with ease.
We also specialize in life transition projects like estate cleanouts, downsizing, and moving. Whether you’re helping a loved one settle an estate or preparing your home for sale, we provide compassionate, efficient service during what can be an emotional time. And if you’re one of those ambitious DIYers taking on a whole-house renovation, we’ll work with you every step of the way to ensure debris removal never slows you down.
Contractors, builders, and property managers rely on Steelhead Dumpster Rentals to keep their job sites clean, safe, and compliant. We provide commercial dumpster rentals for construction sites, demolition projects, roofing jobs, concrete removal, and renovation debris management. Our team understands the pace and demands of construction work, and we’re equipped to handle high-volume waste removal with long-term rental options for ongoing projects.
We work with general contractors, roofers, electricians, plumbers, property management companies, and facility maintenance teams throughout Kent County. Whether you’re working on a single residential build or managing multiple commercial properties, we deliver reliable service, prompt pickups, and the flexibility you need to keep your projects on schedule and on budget.
Choosing the right dumpster size can feel overwhelming if you’ve never rented one before. That’s where our team comes in. We’ll ask a few questions about your project and recommend the perfect size to handle your debris without paying for space you don’t need. Here’s a breakdown of what we offer:
Our 10-yard dumpsters are perfect for small cleanouts and minor renovations. Think garage cleanouts, small bathroom remodels, minor landscaping projects, or apartment cleanouts. The 10-yard lowboy is a unique option with a lower profile, making it easier to load heavy materials like dirt, concrete, or roofing shingles without the need for a ramp. These compact dumpsters fit easily in tight driveways and are ideal for projects that generate a few pickup truck loads of waste.
These are our most popular sizes for residential renovations. A 15 or 20-yard dumpster is perfect for kitchen remodels, basement cleanouts, flooring removal, deck demolition, or medium-sized landscaping projects. They’re large enough to handle significant debris but still compact enough to fit in most driveways. If you’re doing a multi-room renovation or a substantial decluttering project, this is likely the sweet spot.
When you’ve got serious volume, you need serious capacity. Our 30 and 40-yard dumpsters are built for whole-house cleanouts, major construction projects, commercial demolitions, large estate sales, and new construction builds. These are the workhorses of our fleet, capable of handling everything from framing lumber to drywall to mixed debris. Contractors love these sizes for their efficiency and ability to keep job sites clear without constant pickups.
Not sure which size is right for you? Give us a call. We’ll walk you through your project and recommend the best option based on our years of experience.
We believe the condition of our dumpsters reflects the quality of our business. That’s why every dumpster in our fleet is thoroughly cleaned and inspected before delivery. You won’t find rusty, dented, leaking containers with our name on them. We take pride in maintaining professional-grade equipment that looks good on your property and performs reliably throughout your rental period. Clean dumpsters aren’t just about appearances; they’re about safety, functionality, and showing respect for our customers and their projects.
When you need a dumpster, waiting around isn’t an option. We offer same-day dumpster delivery throughout Grand Rapids and Kent County, subject to availability. If you call us early in the day, there’s a good chance we can have a dumpster on your property that afternoon. For everyone else, next-day delivery is our standard service; no waiting weeks or dealing with complicated scheduling systems.
We also understand that emergencies happen. Storm damage, sudden property damage, urgent cleanouts; we’ve seen it all, and we’re ready to respond quickly. Our dispatch team works efficiently to get you the dumpster you need when you need it, whether it’s a planned renovation or an unexpected crisis. We serve the entire Kent County area and can accommodate deliveries across Michigan for larger commercial projects.
Booking is simple. Call us, request a quote online, or send us a message, and we’ll take care of the rest. We’ll confirm your dumpster size, delivery date, and placement location, and our drivers will handle the delivery professionally and safely.
We’re not in the business of surprise charges or fine print fees. When we give you a quote, that’s what you’ll pay; period. Our all-inclusive rates cover delivery, your rental period, pickup, and disposal fees. No hidden costs. No surprise overage charges unless you’ve gone significantly over the weight limit, and even then, we’ll explain everything upfront.
Several factors affect dumpster rental pricing: the size of the container, how long you need it, what type of debris you’re disposing of, and your location within our service area. Heavier materials like concrete or dirt may cost a bit more due to disposal fees, but we’ll explain all of that during your quote so there are no surprises.
We believe in fair, competitive pricing, and we work hard to offer some of the best rates in Grand Rapids. We also offer flexible payment options to make the process as convenient as possible. And if there’s a promotion or seasonal deal available, we’ll make sure you know about it. Our goal is to provide exceptional value without cutting corners on service or equipment quality.
At Steelhead Dumpster Rentals, we’re committed to responsible waste management. We partner with local Kent County recycling facilities and transfer stations to ensure that as much material as possible is diverted from landfills. Metals, wood, cardboard, concrete, and certain plastics can often be recycled or repurposed, and we make every effort to sort and redirect these materials appropriately.
We follow all local and state environmental regulations, and we stay informed about best practices in waste disposal. Whether you’re a homeowner concerned about your environmental footprint or a contractor looking to meet green building standards, you can trust that we’re doing our part to protect Michigan’s natural resources. Sustainable disposal isn’t just good for the planet; it’s the right way to do business.
