What size dumpster do you need?

A dumpster is an essential part of so many construction, remodeling, or moving projects. They come in a variety of sizes, and finding the proper dumpster for your specific project and materials is fundamental to your plan. If you neglect to choose the correctly sized dumpster, you can wind up paying additional fees from overfilling and additional trips. Dumpsters come in several sizes, typically roll-off dumpsters, like the ones Greenway Dumpsters offer, come in 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 40-yard sizes with various limits on weight capacity. Here is a breakdown of what each of the sizes we offer can help you achieve your goals with your next project. Lets look at the different size dumpster options.

10-Yard Dumpster: 12 x 6.5 x 3.5

A 10-yard dumpster holds about 10 cubic yards of smaller solids and single layer roofing shingles. Because 10-yard dumpsters are the smallest we offer, they are perfect for things like bricks, dirt, crushed stones, garbage, and grass clippings. The 10-yard smaller option is perfect for a residential property project, and can also be used for removing trash and clutter from smaller kitchen and bathroom restorations. Our 10-yard dumpsters have a 2-ton weight limit.

15-Yard Dumpster: 14 x 6.75 x 4

If the 10-yard dumpster is just a little too small, the 15-yard dumpster might be perfect for your project. 15-yard dumpsters are more commonly rented more than 10. Rent a 15-yard if you have garage or attic cleanings, or flooring, shingle, and deck removal. Our 15-yard dumpster is typically rented out by contractors, homeowners, and businesses undergoing small-scale renovations. Our 15-yard dumpsters have a 4-ton weight limit.

20-Yard Dumpsters: 16 x 7.25 x 5

Have a larger cleanup? A 20-yard dumpster is often the pick for large residential projects because they provide an adequate space for hefty basement, attic and garage tasks. They are ideal for larger-scale flooring and carpet removal, garage or shed demolition, and siding replacement. Our 20-yard dumpsters have a 4-ton weight limit.

25-Yard Dumpsters: 16 x 6.75 x 6

Doing a commercial-sized job? A major residential renovation? The 25-yard dumpster is the choice for you, and it’s our best-valued price for the size. If a 4-ton weight limit might not be quite enough, our 25-yard dumpster sizes hold an additional ton, making for a 5-ton weight limit.

30-Yard Dumpsters: 22 x 8 x 6

Like the 25-yard dumpster option, a 30-yard is the choice for commercial and major residential projects. They are adequately sized for major home additions, complete garage demolitions, new home construction, and home siding projects.

40-Yard Dumpsters: 22 x 8 x 8

Our largest option available, a 40-yard dumpster is often the choice for large siding or window replacements, commercial roofing, hefty amounts of trash removal, fire cleanouts, landscaping projects and large-scale demolition.

Renting a properly sized dumpster is essential in saving the most amount of money and stress during a project, although it can be challenging to estimate the total weight and size of total debris.
