Dumpster Sizes

How Do You Size A Dumpster?

Dumpsters come in a variety of sizes, based on the amount of debris they can hold. To find the right size for your needs, start by considering the scope of your project. Are you doing a major renovation that will produce a lot of waste? Or are you simply cleaning out your garage? Once you have a sense of the amount of debris you'll be dealing with, you can choose a dumpster that's sized accordingly.

Another factor to consider is the type of debris you'll be disposing of. If you're dealing with large, bulky items, you'll need a larger dumpster to accommodate them. On the other hand, if you're mostly dealing with smaller items, you can opt for a smaller dumpster. And if you're not sure how much waste your project will produce, it's always best to err on the side of caution and choose a larger dumpster just to be safe.

Finally, keep in mind that dumpsters come in both open-top and closed-top varieties. If you're not sure which one is right for your needs, just ask your rental company for advice. They'll be able to help you choose the right size and type of dumpster for your project

What Sizes Do Dumpsters Come In?

There are a variety of dumpster sizes available to accommodate different project needs.

Smaller dumpsters, also known as mini-dumpsters, typically hold around three to four cubic yards of waste. These dumpsters are ideal for smaller projects, such as residential cleanups or small home renovations.

Medium-sized dumpsters, on the other hand, can hold five to six cubic yards of waste and are better suited for larger projects, such as commercial renovations or construction site cleanups.

Finally, large dumpsters, which are also known as roll-off dumpsters, can hold seven to eight cubic yards of waste and are typically used for very large projects, such as commercial construction sites or major home renovations. No matter what size dumpster you need, there is sure to be a size that will fit your project requirements.
