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

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, request your free instant quote today.

    I have used Dumpster Dudez twice so far and have had great experiences. The most recent time they dropped the dumpster off for me on a Sunday since we had volunteers coming the next day (Labor Day) to remove water damaged walls and carpet from our church. Great communication both by phone and text. Would definitely recommend the Reading location to anyone!

    I had questions. They had answers. They were on top of things. Courteous. Gave me a bigger dumpster because they were out of the size I ordered. It's easy to order online. It's delivered and picked up on time. Very accommodating. This project was made considerably easier because of Dumpster Dudez. Good communication with a very nice woman in the office. If I need a dumpster again, they will be the people to call. It was almost too easy.

    They are very good to deal with, from the initial phone call to the drop off and pick up. Plus their prices are better than others I checked with.

    Rented a 15CY for my roof replacement. Delivered on time and where I had asked. Protected my driveway with wood, and even picked up the nails from underneath before properly tarping the load and hauling it away. Great email and phone communication throughout.

    Five stars across the board! Excellent communication and customer service - I texted them with some questions on Thursday and Joni called me right away to answer my questions and order my dumpster. Prompt delivery and pick up - I contacted them on a Thursday and the dumpster was delivered Friday, then I texted them on Sunday and the dumpster was picked up on Monday. Careful and courteous of property -they bring boards to place under the wheels.

    I live down a dirt road and 3 other places refused to come to my property. A friend from Exeter recommended Dumpster Dudez and I am so glad. Not only did they deliver but they checked up on us before and after pick up. I wish I knew how great they are because I would have gotten the bigger size. I had 5 items that didn't fit so I called a junk pick up service and they were going to charge me 600 for these items. For a third of that I am getting another dumpster!!!! Thank you for your great service and affordable prices!
