How to Choose the Right Dumpster Size for Your Project


When planning a big project — whether it’s a home renovation, a construction site, or a major cleanout — having the right dumpster size is crucial. Choosing too small can mean multiple hauls (costing you more), while too big means paying for space you don’t need. Here’s a simple guide to help you pick the perfect dumpster size.
Our Dumpster Sizes:
12-yard Heavy Duty dumpster — Concrete, dirt, sod and other very heavy materials
20-yard dumpster — Ideal for larger cleanouts, roofing projects, or medium-sized remodels.
30-yard dumpster — Perfect for major home additions, larger commercial projects, or new construction.
Factors to Consider:
Type of materials (heavy vs light)
Volume of debris (bigger isn’t always better)
Space available for delivery (tight job sites may need a smaller container)
When in doubt, it’s safer to size up slightly — it’s often cheaper than paying for a second haul!
