What does a 14 yard bin cost for a week in Ottawa?

A 14 yard bin for about a week is priced in one of two models on Ottawa bin companies' published pages, seen October 2026, so the first thing to know is which model your quote uses.

Under the bin fee plus weight model, expect roughly $200 to $350 for delivery, pickup and about a week, then disposal billed separately at about $150 to $160 per tonne. Under the all-in model, expect about $460 to $540 plus tax, with 1 to 2 tonnes included in that flat price. Those two ranges are not comparable on the same basis, so ask for a price in each model and decide once you know roughly how much your load will weigh.

A few things shift the final number. Extra days run about $15 to $35 each, so if your renovation runs long, that adds up. Some companies add a fuel or environmental surcharge, and some add a winter scrape fee for frozen loads. Certain items, such as tires, batteries, paint, propane or pressurised tanks, and hazardous or medical waste, are refused by some companies; appliances and mattresses draw a per-item charge at some companies.

If the bin will sit on the street, boulevard or sidewalk rather than entirely on your property, the City's TCE permit applies, and its fees are separate from any bin price.

Before the bin arrives, get the pricing model, the number of days and tonnes included, and the full list of refused and surcharged items confirmed in writing so there are no surprises on the final invoice.
