When renting a dumpster you’ll want to first think about how much trash you’ll be producing and which sized dumpster would be best. In general, it’s a good idea to make certain you have a little room left over in your dumpster so you aren’t stuck requiring it to be emptied and returned to you repeatedly. Understanding the weight limits of each dumpster is a pivotal fact as well, especially if you’re getting rid of heavy materials like asphalt or roofing. Typically, there are certain dumpster sizes that will match the standard trash removal jobs that a person will be performing, which will give you an idea of what you expect when you’re working on your own project.

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

General Waste Removal or Remodeling Projects: In general, a 20 cubic yard dumpster is ideal for remodeling a single room in your house, or performing a basic 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: If you have more than one room you’re going to be working on, then it’s a very good idea to upgrade to a 30 cubic yard dumpster size. This size will make sure that you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but rather it would only take a single trip.

Cleaning Out Your Basement, Attic or Garage: It’s a good idea to clear out unnecessary items from your home’s storage areas to free up more space. The regular sized home storage area can be cleaned out using a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster. If you have sizeable items, such as appliances, you may want a 20 yarder just to be on the safe side.

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

Yard Work or Landscaping: Landscaping, yard or gardening work generally only produce a small amount of waste that will not take up a significant amount of space in a dumpster. Because of this, these sorts of projects typically only require a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster unless it involves a large amount of tree branches.

Construction Projects: For large renovation, home improvement or construction initiatives a big dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be perfect. Anytime you expect a large amount of debris to be produced by your job, having a greater sized dumpster is the safest bet. Heavy waste objects, such as concrete or asphalt, will need a specific heavy-duty dumpster.

If you have a particularly special project or are unsure of the dumpster size that would be the best fit for you, you can always call up our specialists at (844) 923-1888 and simply tell us a little bit about the waste you’re disposing of.
