How to Choose the Right Dumpster Size
When selecting a roll off size, consider both your total debris volume and project needs. Rather than automatically choosing the largest container, evaluate whether multiple smaller dumpsters or our empty-and-return service might better suit your needs. This approach helps manage space on-site, prevents debris from accumulating and ensures you get the most cost-effective disposal solution.
Debris Type
Different materials have varying weights and sizes. Knowing your debris type — whether it’s bulky, heavy or somewhere in between — ensures you get a dumpster that fits all your junk while safely handling its weight.
Debris Amount
Knowing how much debris you’re tossing helps prevent overpaying for unused space or overfilling your bin, resulting in an overage fee. Use our weight calculators to estimate your debris tonnage ahead of time.
Space Available
Your project location affects where you can put your dumpster — and what size works best for the space. Ensure your delivery spot has enough space for the dumpster size you choose, leaving room for easy loading.
