Quick Answer: SoCo Waste and Bin There Dump That serve different ends of the same market. SoCo carries 10 through 40 yard containers and runs trash routes; we run 10, 15 and 20 yard residential bins with driveway protection standard.
• SoCo has sizes we do not — 30 and 40 yard
• Their published Colorado Springs overage rate is lower than ours
• We include driveway boards and a walk-in door on every bin
• SoCo charges a dry-run fee if the bin cannot be delivered

Where SoCo Is the Better Choice
You need a 30 or 40 yard. We do not run them. If your project genuinely produces that much volume — a large demolition, a commercial build — SoCo carries the equipment and we do not.
You want ongoing trash service. They run residential and commercial routes. That is a different business from ours and we are not in it.
You expect to go well over the weight allowance. Their published overage rate for Colorado Springs is lower than ours. On a heavy load that difference adds up, and it is worth knowing.
Where We Are the Better Choice
The bin is going on your driveway. Every bin we deliver sits on wooden protection boards. That is standard, not an upgrade, and it is the difference between a clean driveway and a gouged one.
You are loading it yourself. Every bin has a walk-in door on the end. On a basement cleanout or a tile job, carrying material in at ground level instead of lifting it over a 4-foot wall is not a small thing.
Access is uncertain. If we cannot place a bin, we work it out. There is no dry-run fee waiting for you.
Your project is 10 to 20 yards. That is the entire range we build for, rather than the small end of a much larger fleet.
What Should I Actually Ask?
Whichever way you go, get these four answers before you book:
• What is the total delivered cost for my size and rental length?
• Exactly how much weight is included on that size?
• What is the overage rate per ton?
• Does the bin go on driveway protection?
Our numbers are on the rates page and explained on the cost guide. See also our full comparison of Colorado Springs dumpster companies.
