We Offer Residential & Commercial Dumpster Sizes


Residential


10-Yard Dumpster

The 10-yard is perfect for smaller residential projects like garage clean-outs, light remodeling, or clearing out yard waste. Its compact size makes it ideal for tight driveways or limited space around the home. This dumpster is a great choice for weekend DIY projects or decluttering before a move. It holds about 3 pickup truck loads of debris, offering just the right capacity for small-scale cleanups.


15-Yard Dumpster

Our 15-yard dumpster is a versatile option for mid-sized home improvement jobs, including roofing replacements, kitchen updates, or removing bulky household items. It’s big enough to handle debris from several rooms but still small enough to fit in most driveways. This size is a popular choice for homeowners who need more space without going overboard. It holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads, making it ideal for medium renovation projects.


20-Yard Dumpster

The 20-yard is a workhorse for larger home clean-outs, estate moves, or renovation projects that generate a significant amount of debris. It offers plenty of space for furniture, drywall, flooring, and construction materials. This size is frequently used by both homeowners and contractors tackling major jobs. It holds about 6 pickup truck loads, giving you the volume you need without taking up too much space on-site.


Commerical

30-Yard Dumpster

The 30-yard dumpster is ideal for larger commercial projects like office clean-outs, retail renovations, or mid-size construction sites. It provides the extra capacity needed for bulky debris, including drywall, lumber, and old fixtures. This size is a reliable choice for contractors and property managers who need to manage heavy disposal without constant pickups. It holds about 9 pickup truck loads, offering plenty of space while remaining manageable on most job sites.


40-Yard Dumpster

The 40-yard dumpster is built for the biggest jobs, such as large-scale demolitions, new commercial construction, or full warehouse clean-outs. Its large capacity makes it the go-to option when you’re dealing with high volumes of debris over a short period of time. This size is best suited for experienced crews with enough space on-site to accommodate its footprint. It holds about 12 pickup truck loads, making it the most efficient choice for major cleanup and disposal needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What can I put in a dumpster?

    You can toss most household junk, construction debris, yard waste, furniture, and non-hazardous materials in a dumpster. This includes things like wood, drywall, old appliances (without freon), mattresses, and general trash. 


    However, hazardous materials are strictly prohibited. This includes paint, oil, asbestos, tires, batteries, and certain electronics. If you’re not sure whether something is allowed, just give us a call and we’ll let you know before you rent.


  • How long can I keep the dumpster?

    Most rentals include a standard 7-day rental period, which is plenty of time for most residential jobs. If you finish early, you can call for early pickup at no extra charge. Need more time? We offer flexible rental extensions for a small daily fee, so you're not rushed to finish your project. Just let us know what works for you when you book, and we’ll build the schedule around your timeline.

  • Will the dumpster damage my driveway?

    Our dumpsters are designed to be driveway-friendly, and we take precautions to protect your property. We can place wooden boards underneath the dumpster to help spread the weight and reduce the chance of marks or cracks on concrete or asphalt. That said, very old or already damaged surfaces may still be at risk, especially with heavy loads. If you’re concerned, ask us about placement options. We’re happy to help you choose the safest location.

What Size Dumpster Do I Need For My Home Project?

By Kris Wathen • July 29, 2025
If you’re tackling a home renovation, clean-out, or yard project, renting a dumpster can make the process a lot easier. But with different dumpster sizes available, many homeowners wonder: what size dumpster do I actually need? Choosing the right size can save you money, avoid unnecessary pickups, and help your project run smoothly from start to finish. At RT Dumpsters, we offer several residential dumpster options, but the most popular sizes for home projects are 10-yard, 15-yard, and 20-yard dumpsters. Here’s a breakdown of what each size is best for so you can make the right call. 10-Yard Dumpster: Small But Mighty A 10-yard dumpster is a great fit for smaller jobs. Think of projects like cleaning out the garage, sprucing up the landscaping, or replacing flooring in a single room. It’s also perfect for hauling off yard debris or getting rid of household junk before a move. This dumpster fits in most driveways and holds about 3 pickup truck loads of waste. If your project is quick, relatively light, and limited to one area of the house, a 10-yard dumpster is likely all you need. 15-Yard Dumpster: For Medium-Sized Projects If your project is a bit larger or involves bulky items, the 15-yard dumpster gives you extra room to work with. It’s ideal for small kitchen remodels, roofing jobs, or cleaning out multiple rooms at once. Many homeowners choose this size when upgrading appliances, tearing out carpet, or disposing of heavier materials like drywall and wood. A 15-yard dumpster holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads of debris, and it still fits comfortably in a standard driveway. This size offers a great balance of space and affordability for mid-size home projects. 20-Yard Dumpster: The Heavy Lifter For large clean-outs, estate cleanups, or full-room renovations, a 20-yard dumpster is your best bet. This size can handle everything from furniture and flooring to construction debris from more intensive remodels. It’s also popular for homeowners who are tackling a few projects at once and want to make sure they don’t run out of space. A 20-yard dumpster holds about 6 pickup truck loads and offers the most flexibility for residential use without stepping into the realm of commercial-sized bins. Still Not Sure What You Need? If you're unsure which size is right for your project, don’t worry — we’re happy to help. At RT Dumpsters, we’ll ask a few quick questions about your project and recommend the best dumpster size based on your needs and budget.
