40 Yard Dumpster Rentals: Built for Project Success

A 40 yard roll off dumpster holds 40 cubic yards of debris. This is the equivalent of:

• 12 pickup truckloads
• 230 to 250 large 33-gallon trash bags
• 1,080 cubic feet

This roll off dumpster is a perfect match for all your large-scale projects, from
multi-unit renovations to industrial cleanups.

Yes. All our dumpster rentals have an included weight limit in your price. On average, a 40 yard roll off dumpster has a weight limit of 5 to 6 tons, which equals about 10,000 to 12,000 pounds. Keep in mind that both weight and capacity limits on dumpster rentals can differ from city to city due to local roadway safety regulations.

Calculate the Weight of Your Debris

If you go over your dumpster’s weight limit, you’ll receive a per-ton overage fee. We measure the extra weight and charge you a pro-rated, per-ton fee so you only pay for the amount of debris you toss.

You need to keep your bin on a flat, paved surface, like your driveway, jobsite or the street. Since we deliver your bin with a roll off truck, make sure on the delivery date that:

• There is 60 feet of space for your dumpster
• There is 23 to 25 feet of vertical clearance (no hanging branches)
• All obstacles, like parked cars and equipment, are removed
• All gates are unlocked or access codes are available to our driver

You can toss a variety of waste in your 40 yard dumpster. Accepted materials include household junk like large furniture, construction debris like drywall, pallets and flooring or yard waste. Have a question about your debris? Reach out to our team, and we’ll let you know if your waste can go in your bin.
