Dump or dumpster: which is cheaper in Winston-Salem?

For a pickup load or two, hauling it yourself usually wins. Once a cleanout or remodel runs to several loads, a dumpster can cost less than your time, fuel and repeated gate fees.

Haul it yourself

Gate fee by weight, by load, or free for residents at some city sites

  • Official local rate: FY 2026-27 rates (effective July 2026): $37 per ton, $10 minimum.
  • You need a truck or trailer, a way to cover and secure the load, and time for each round trip
  • Best for 1-2 pickup loads, yard waste, or single items like a mattress or appliance
  • Resident-only sites usually ask for ID or proof of address
