Dimensions and capacities are approximate. Heavy debris like concrete has a lower fill line due to weight limits — call for guidance.

Still deciding?

We'll help you get it right the first time

Ordering the wrong size is the most common — and most expensive — dumpster mistake. Too small and you're paying for a second haul; too big and you're paying for air. Describe your project and we'll recommend the size that fits, flag any weight considerations, and quote it flat.

Dumpster Size FAQs

What's the most popular dumpster size?

The 20 yard is our most-rented size for homeowners — it's big enough for a whole-house cleanout or a major remodel yet still fits a standard driveway. For heavy debris like concrete, the 10 yard is the standard choice.

What size do I need for a home cleanout?

Most full-property cleanouts fit a 20 yard. Smaller or partial cleanouts may do well with a 15. When in doubt, we'll help you pick — call us with a description of the property.

Why is the 10 yard recommended for concrete?

Concrete and dirt are extremely heavy. A 10 yard reaches its weight limit around a set fill line, while larger containers would exceed safe hauling weight before filling. Right-sizing keeps you legal and avoids overage fees.

Can I change sizes after I book?

If your plans change before delivery, just call — we'll swap you to the right size if it's available. That's the advantage of working with a flexible local company.
