- • Leaves and grass clippings
- • Shrubs and bushes
- • Sod and turf
- • Small stumps (under 12″ diameter)
- • Garden plants and weeds
- • Mulch and wood chips
NOT yard waste (costs more)

- • Rocks, gravel, or stone
- • Concrete or pavers
- • Lumber, fencing, or construction debris
- • Large stumps (over 12″)

Best dumpster sizes for yard waste in Bonner Springs
| Size | Dimensions | Weight | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | 12′ L × 8′ W × 3.5′ H | 1–2 tons | $250–$400 |
| 20 Yard | 22′ L × 8′ W × 4.5′ H | 2–3 tons | $300–$500 |
| 30 Yard | 22′ L × 8′ W × 6′ H | 3–4 tons | $400–$600 |
Tip:Yard waste is mostly light (branches at 200 lbs/yd), so you'll typically fill the volume before hitting the weight limit. The exception is sod (1,400 lbs/yd) — a full 20-yard of sod could hit 14 tons. Ask about weight limits if you're removing large amounts of sod or turf.
Municipal pickup vs dumpster in Bonner Springs
| Factor | Municipal Pickup | Dumpster Rental |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Free (included in taxes) | $250–$600 |
| Volume limit | 5–10 bags/bundles per week | 10–30 cubic yards at once |
| Schedule | Weekly, specific days only | On your timeline (7–14 days) |
| Size restrictions | Branches under 4′, bags under 50 lbs | No size limits within the bin |
| Best for | Weekly maintenance, light pruning | Big projects, storms, full cleanouts |
Bottom line:If you can fit your yard waste into a few weeks of municipal pickup, it's free. But for tree removals, storm damage, or landscaping overhauls that produce 5+ cubic yards of debris, a dumpster rental is the only practical option — and it gets done in days instead of weeks.
Composting option for yard waste

Yard waste dumpster FAQ
What counts as yard waste for dumpster rental in Bonner Springs?
Yard waste includes branches, tree limbs, leaves, grass clippings, shrubs, sod, stumps, and other organic landscaping debris. Most haulers in Bonner Springsdo NOT allow dirt, rocks, concrete, or construction materials mixed with yard waste — those require a heavy-debris dumpster at a higher rate.
What size dumpster do I need for yard waste in Bonner Springs?
Most yard waste projects in Bonner Springs use a 10 or 20 yard dumpster. A 10 yard handles a single large tree removal or seasonal cleanup. A 20 yard is better for full property cleanouts, multiple tree removals, or landscaping overhauls. Branches are light (200 lbs/yd) so volume is the constraint, not weight.
Is it cheaper to use municipal yard waste pickup in Bonner Springs, Kansas?
For small amounts (a few bags or a single brush pile), Bonner Springs's municipal pickup is usually free or low-cost. But municipal services have strict limits — typically 5–10 bags or bundles per week with size restrictions. For large projects like tree removal, storm cleanup, or full landscaping overhauls, a dumpster rental is faster and handles the volume in one trip.
