Five Roll-Off Sizes for Every Project

The right size saves you money two ways: you don't pay for volume you won't use, and you don't pay for a second delivery because you ran out of room. Here's how they compare.

Still Deciding?

Two Numbers Decide Your Size: Volume and Weight

Most people size by volume alone and forget weight — and that's how projects end up over the limit. Bulky-but-light debris (furniture, framing, brush) fills space fast, so go bigger. Dense debris (concrete, tile, dirt, shingles) hits weight limits fast, so go smaller and stay legal. When your load mixes both, we balance them for you.

  • Underestimating means a second delivery fee
  • Heavy material belongs in a smaller, weight-rated box
  • When in doubt between two sizes, size up

Dumpster Size FAQs

We carry the full range of roll-off sizes: 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40 cubic yards. That spread covers everything from a single-room cleanout to a major commercial demolition.

Think about two things: how much debris (volume) and how heavy it is (weight). Bulky, lighter material like furniture or framing favors a bigger container; dense material like concrete or dirt favors a smaller, weight-appropriate one. Our size guide walks through common projects, and a quick call gets you a confident answer in two minutes.

If you underestimate, we can usually deliver a second container or do a swap — but that means a second fee, so it's worth sizing up a little when you're unsure. If you're between two sizes and the debris isn't heavy, the larger one is almost always the cheaper decision in the end.

No — larger containers include larger weight allowances. Every rental states its included tonnage upfront, with a clear per-ton rate if you go over. For heavy debris, weight usually matters more than volume, which is why we may steer you to a smaller box than you'd expect.
