Find the right size for your project

Not sure what size you need? You are in the right place. The quickest way is to count the job in pickup truck loads — about 3 for a 10 yard, 4–5 for a 15, 6 for a 20, 9 for a 30, 12 for a 40 — and then check the weight: concrete, tile, roofing and soil fill a container's tonnage allowance long before it looks full, so those go level in a 10. Everything else is a question of driveway length.

All our containers are driveway-safe with boards under the rails, cleaned and inspected before they leave the yard, and the same flat price covers delivery, a 7-day rental, pickup and disposal to the stated tonnage.

Why size matters

Choosing the right size is about money, not just room. A container that is too small means a second haul; one that is too big means paying for air. The usual mistakes are under-counting the pile by about a third and forgetting that dense material hits the weight limit first. When you are between two sizes and the material is light, go up; when it is heavy, go to a 10 loaded level or plan a swap.

Every container is driveway-safe with boards under the rails. If your neighborhood has HOA rules or tight access, say so — we have placed containers everywhere from beachside lots to downtown alleys.

Answers

Dumpster sizes — common questions

What is the most popular dumpster size?

The 20 yard. It holds about six pickup loads, fits most two-car driveways and covers everything from a whole-house cleanout to a roof tear-off.

How do I measure how much debris I have?

Count it in pickup truck loads and add a third. If the number lands between two sizes, go up.

What size do I need for concrete?

A 10 yard loaded level with the sides. Concrete in a bigger box is too heavy to lift.

How much space does the truck need?

About 25 feet of straight, level driveway for a 10 yard, 35 feet for a 20 or 30, 40 feet for a 40, plus overhead clearance.

Service area

Every size, delivered across the Springfield metro and the 417

We run roll-off containers out of the Glenstone Avenue yard to every town below. Springfield and the closest towns are often same-day; the edges of the area are more often next-day. Most of the towns we checked license or permit the haulers that work inside their limits, and a few keep containers off the street — each page says so plainly. If your town is not listed, call anyway.
