How to choose the right size
Think in pickup-truck loads. A standard pickup bed holds about 2–3 cubic yards. If your debris would fill 4 truck loads, a 10-yard dumpster is about right. Eight truck loads? Go with a 20-yard.
When in doubt, go one size up. An overflowing dumpster can’t be hauled — and ordering a second dumpster costs far more than sizing up in the first place.
Consider weight, not just volume. Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, and shingles hit weight limits fast. Tell us what you’re tossing and we’ll make sure you get a dumpster (and a weight allowance) that fits.
Sizes we don’t recommend (and why)
You won’t find 11, 14, or 17-yard dumpsters on this site anymore — those were odd sizes that confused customers and cost more per yard. Stick with the standard 10, 15, 20, 30, or 40-yard sizes above.
