To make your next project go as smoothly as possible, it's important that you're using the right dumpster size in Lancaster, PA.

When renovating or cleaning your home, moving debris yourself can be time-consuming and stressful. It won't take long for your property to be littered with debris and trash. When transporting grubby, sharp, and bulky waste materials to the dump, remember that an appropriately-sized dumpster can save you time and money.

Dumpster Dudez is always the right company to provide you with satisfactory dumpster rental services. We have provided tips in this article to help homeowners choose the right dumpster size for their renovation or home improvement projects.

Available Sizes

Dumpster Dudez has 10-, 15-, 20-, and 25-cubic yard dumpsters for rent. There's a dumpster rental option for every project! Choosing the right size dumpster for your project will save money since you won't pay for unused space. A dumpster that's too small for your project will cost more to replace.

To properly understand the dumpster, here is a mini-analysis of how to determine the correct size:

  • A 10-yard dumpster can hold approximately three truckloads of debris or 10 cubic yards of materials. It's best for homeowners embarking on basement, garage, and general household cleanups. It can also be used for small concrete removals and interior renovations.
  • 15-20 yard dumpsters are equivalent to six truckloads and are the right choice for big landscaping jobs, floor removals, roofing jobs, concrete removals, and bathroom remodels.
  • The 25-yard dumpster is the largest we provide at Dumpster Dudez. Whether you are undertaking a small demolition, a new home construction, a large pool removal, or concrete removal, it is the perfect solution for homeowners and businesses. It is equivalent to approximately eight truckloads.

We can handle a variety of types, including perishable and degradable materials. Visit our acceptable items page to learn more about what you can put in our dumpsters.

Consider the Weight

When hiring a dumpster, you should also consider the weight. Nonprofessionals only consider debris volume when it's just as important to consider its weight as well. For every dumpster size, there is a maximum weight that it can carry, and bricks and concrete may not be able to fill it completely. To handle heavier debris, you need a larger dumpster.

Why Dumpster Dudez Stands Out

Continuous dumpster service is most popular among commercial customers because it offers discounts and other benefits. However, if you call Dumpster Dudez, you will get any service you need, as we have a variety of plans available.

Dumpster Dudez has the right equipment with convenient drop-off and pick-up times that can be customized according to your schedule and a competitive dumpster rental rate. For reliable dumpster rental services in Lancaster, PA, request your free instant quote today.

    They were great! The dumpster was delivered exactly as promised. I had to get a second one and used them for both jobs. They even came and picked up the dumpsters early and was very nice and accommodating to work with. Highly recommend.

    I have used dumpsters from them 3-4 times in the past 2 years and have had a great experience. Even during this past holiday week they were able to help me on short notice and get one to me very quickly.

    Ive been using dumpster dudez for my flooring business for a few years now and I have literally nothing bad to say about them. Always on time, always on point with communication and always have a great attitude when I call them. Definitely go with these guys if you are looking for dumpster rentals!

    Seamless order, drop off, contact/updates, and pickup. Filled up just under 25 yds of their 25 yd dumpster. They were very responsive and polite. I would, and likely will, use them again.

    Update: We did, in fact, use their services again and it was just as great the 2nd time around! I can't recommend them highly enough! Lindsay was quick to respond to any questions I had along the way, which was awesome. The dumpster was clean and professionally delivered and picked up with no issues. The whole process what short, sweet and simple. I'd definitely use them again for any bulk disposal needs!

    Ordered a residential dumpster to clean out our full attic and full garage that were filled with broken recliners, old furniture, small bathroom remodel and yard waste(branches) old water heater and bags and bags of junk. Lindsay was very helpful with my questions through text.She always responded right away. It was so easy to order on line and schedule a day for drop off. Price was exactly what she quoted. No extra or hidden fees. We were able to take our time and work at our own pace. We finished before the 7 days were up and they came to pick up the very next day after I called to let them know we were finished. 5 stars all around.

    Lindsey was wonderful from the first time I spoke just getting quotes. I told my husband when I got off the phone that most dumpsters are coming out to be the same price but I want to give my service to Dumpster Dudes because I just connected with Lindsey !!!!! When the dumpster came the gentleman that dropped it off was professional making sure he had the correct spot on the driveway . We had it for a week and Monday morning by the time I was done running my kiddos to school it was picked up !!! If we need any other dumpster needs we know where we will be getting it from !!! Can’t say enough about this company :)
