30 Yard Dumpster

30 yard roll off dumpsters hold about 12 pick up trucks of waste material. They are most often used for projects like new home constructions, large home additions, siding or window replacements for a small to medium sized house, or garage/basement demolition.

Attaining an understanding of dumpster rental sizes and their dimensions can go a long way towards helping you to make the correct decision for your waste removal task. However, it can be tough to estimate the precise amount of trash that a particular task will produce. Thankfully, there are a variety of dumpster sizes that can fit any waste removal job you may have. Although it’s always a fine idea to describe your project in depth when renting a dumpster so we can help you select a suitable size, below are some examples of common jobs and the average sized dumpster you’ll need to rent.

Below are just a few of the common jobs customers have used our dumpsters for and the sizes that might be right for your own project:

Remodeling or Garbage Removal: Each person’s project is unique, but in general a 20 cubic yard dumpster is adequate for a single room remodel or cleanup. A 20 cubic yard dumpster rental will handle about 6 truckloads of waste, unless you have larger objects like appliances you’re getting rid of.

Multi-Room Contracting Work: When remodeling numerous rooms in your residence or having contracting work done a 30 cubic yard dumpster is generally an ideal option. This size will ensure you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but instead it would only take one trip.

One Room Storage Area Cleanup: Cleaning out unwanted items or debris from your storage areas is a great way to free up more living space in your home. The regular sized home storage area can be cleaned out using a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster. If you have big items, such as appliances, you may want a 20 yarder just to be on the safe side.

Cleaning Out a Full Home: For items such as furniture or large appliances that you’re cleaning out of your home, a 15-20 cubic yard dumpster would be ideal for the average house. Larger sized homes, however, could benefit from working with a 30 cubic yard dumpster to take care of all the unwanted items you’re removing.

Landscaping or Yard Work: Landscaping, yard or gardening jobs generally only produce a small amount of waste materials that will not take up a substantial amount of space in a dumpster. Therefore, the average yard project will only require a 10 to 15 cubic yard dumpster, unless you are preparing for disposing of many tree branches or full shrubbery.

Contracting Projects: The very best dumpster rental solution for contracting work or large scale projects would be the 40 cubic yard solution. Anytime you anticipate a large amount of debris to be produced by your job, having a greater sized dumpster is the safest bet. Keep in mind, if you will be disposing of very heavy objects such as concrete or bricks, you’ll need a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

One of the most frequent questions we hear is how is a dumpster rental rate determined? The first way a dumpster rental’s cost is determined by which size you decide on for your project. The more junk it can hold, the greater the rate on average. The length of time you intend to rent the dumpster for in Alexandria will also factor into how much it will cost in the end. Other than size and length of time the dumpster is being rented for, there may also be charges depending on the materials you’ll be disposing of. Items with a lot of weight to them, like concrete, bricks or roofing shingles, may demand a special type of dumpster that can handle these heavy loads. It’s necessary to take this into consideration, as you may not end up filling your dumpster to the top, but you could still go over its weight capacity depending on the type of waste material you’re disposing of.

Here are some frequent points that might also factor into the dumpster’s cost:

– Weight of substances.
– Hazardous materials or waste requiring special disposal methods.
– Landfill fees on particular items such as appliances or large furniture.

– Getting local permits.
– Increasing the initial period of rental for the dumpster.
