Dumpster sizes in Manhattan
| Size | Fits | Included |
|---|---|---|
| 5 yard | A small cleanout, or a heavy load of concrete and dirt | 1 ton |
| 10 yard | A single-car garage, or a small bathroom tear-out | 1 ton |
| 15 yard | Two rooms, or a one-layer roof up to 25 squares | 2 tons |

Weight allowance matters as much as container size. Plaster, tile, and wet debris use up the allowance long before the container looks full.
Disposal and permits in Manhattan
Where does the waste from Manhattan go?
Loads from Manhattan go to the nearest licensed transfer station or landfill in Riley County, and dump fees are charged by the ton. That is why the weight allowance matters more than the container size.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Manhattan?
On your own driveway you need nothing. In the public right-of-way, Manhattan requires a permit, usually a few days out. Most haulers will pull it for you if you ask.
What can't go in a dumpster?
No tires, batteries, paint, fuel, or appliances containing freon. Mattresses and box springs are accepted at most yards for a per-item fee. Concrete and dirt need their own dedicated container.
