FAQs

How do I choose the right dumpster for my project?

To figure out what dumpster size you need, consider the following:

Project scope: The larger your project is, the bigger the dumpster you’ll likely need.
Type of debris: Heavier materials like concrete, dirt, or roofing often require a dumpster with a higher weight limit. If you're tossing lighter items, such as household junk or general trash, a smaller bin will usually work.
Available space: All of our dumpsters are compact, but if your site has tight access, gates, or other obstacles, you may be limited to a smaller size.

What size dumpster is best for a home renovation or remodel?

For most home renovations or remodels, a 15-yard or 20-yard dumpster is usually the best fit. They’re large enough to handle debris like drywall, flooring, cabinets, and fixtures, but not so large that you’re paying for space you won’t use.

What size dumpster should I rent for a landscaping or yard cleanup project?

It depends on the type of debris you’re cleaning up. If it’s just lighter material like branches, leaves, or grass, you should have plenty of room in a 10-yard dumpster. However, if your project involves heavier materials such as sod, pavers, dirt, or decorative stone, a 15- to 20-yard dumpster is a better choice because it has more space and a higher weight limit.

What’s the best dumpster size for garage cleanouts or spring cleaning?

Most garage or spring cleanouts involve lighter junk, so you typically won’t need a massive rental. A 10- or 15-yard dumpster will likely have plenty of space. That said, it's a good idea to make a general list of what you’re tossing. If you think some items might be bulky or heavy, sizing up can help you avoid overfilling.

What size dumpster is recommended for estate or foreclosure cleanouts?

For estate and foreclosure cleanouts, we recommend a 20- or 25-yard dumpster. Cleaning out an entire home is a big project, and it’s better to go bigger upfront than risk overfilling a smaller bin.

What dumpster should I choose for bulk furniture removal or junk cleanouts?

It’s a smart idea to toss bulky furniture or household junk—like couches, dressers, and tables—into a 20- or 25-yard dumpster. Their odd shapes and large sizes can make them difficult to load efficiently into a smaller dumpster.

I researched this deeply and these dudez are the best in the business. Ordering was easy and transparent with the online experience vastly superior to the usual requirements for calling and enduring the bait/switch and hard sell. Delivery was on time and the dumpster was pristine. Pick-up and customer service were perfect. These guys are master professionals and my only choice going forward.

Highly Recommend Dumpster Dudez! They were the only company I could find to haul away clean fill. They hauled away nearly 25 tons of clean fill for me in just a few short days. They kept dropping dumpsters off and taking away full ones as fast as I could fill them! Their communication, professionalism, and flexibility was incredible. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’d work with Bennett and his team again anytime and would suggest you do the same!

Dumpster Dudez were very efficient. I called and they dropped the dumpster the next day and promptly picked it up the same day. We texted back and forth for pick up and drop off. Their prices were comparable to others in the area. I would use them again.
