Choosing the right dumpster size can save you time and money. We help customers select the perfect container based on the scope of their project, the type of debris, and how long they’ll need it. Here’s a breakdown of our most popular sizes and what they’re best suited for.
Our 10 and 12 yard dumpsters are compact but mighty. They’re perfect for garage cleanouts, small bathroom remodels, yard waste removal, or minor junk disposal projects. If you’re cleaning out an attic, replacing a fence, or doing light landscaping work, these smaller containers offer an affordable solution without taking up much space in your driveway.
The 15 and 20 yard sizes are our most popular for residential customers. They’re ideal for kitchen renovations, basement cleanouts, roofing projects, flooring removal, estate cleanouts, and moving preparations. These dumpsters handle moderate debris loads and fit comfortably in most driveways, making them the go-to choice for homeowners tackling serious cleanouts or remodeling work.
When you’re managing a whole-home renovation, commercial construction site, or full demolition project, our 30 and 40 yard dumpsters are built to handle the load. Contractors and property managers rely on these sizes for new construction, large teardowns, and multi-phase projects that generate significant debris. They’re designed for heavy-duty use and can accommodate everything from framing lumber to drywall, siding, and roofing materials.
Not sure what size you need? Call us for expert advice. We’ll walk you through your project and recommend the right container.

| Common Questions & Important Information | ||
| Size Selection | How do I choose the right size? | Think about the scope of your project. Small cleanouts typically need 10-15 yards. Medium renovations work well with 20 yards. Large construction or demolition projects require 30-40 yards. Not sure? Give us a call; we'll help you select the perfect size based on your specific needs. |
| Fill Line & Weight | What's the fill line and why does it matter? | Every dumpster has a fill line marked on the inside. Don't load debris above this line; it's unsafe for transport and may result in additional fees. Weight limits also apply; exceeding the included tonnage may incur overage charges, which we'll always discuss upfront. |
| Prohibited Items | What can't I throw away? | For safety and environmental reasons, you cannot dispose of hazardous waste, chemicals, paints, oils, tires, batteries, propane tanks, or medical waste. If you're unsure about an item, just ask us before loading. We're committed to eco-friendly disposal practices and can guide you to proper disposal resources. |
| Permits | Do I need a permit? | If the dumpster is placed on your private property (driveway, yard), you typically don't need a permit. However, if it will be on a public street or right-of-way, you may need to obtain a permit from your local municipality. We can advise you based on your location in Fairfax County. |
| Placement | Where should I place the dumpster? | Choose a flat, stable surface with clear access for our delivery truck. Avoid blocking driveways, sidewalks, or traffic flow. We can place plywood under the dumpster to protect asphalt or delicate surfaces. Clear the area of overhead wires, tree branches, and obstacles to ensure safe delivery. |
| Rental Terms | How long can I keep it? | Standard rentals are typically 7 days, but we offer flexible scheduling including weekend, weekly, and monthly options. Need extra time? Just let us know and we'll extend your rental period. Our transparent pricing means you'll always know the cost before any changes are made. |
| Delivery & Pickup | How quickly can I get a dumpster? | We offer same-day delivery when you need it fast; just call before noon. Standard next-day delivery is available for most projects. When you're ready for pickup, simply give us a call and we'll schedule it at your convenience. Fast and reliable delivery is what we're known for. |
| Property Protection | Will the dumpster damage my driveway? | Our experienced drivers take care to minimize impact, but heavy dumpsters can sometimes leave marks on asphalt or soft surfaces. We recommend placing plywood boards under the dumpster for added protection. Concrete driveways typically handle the weight without issue. Let us know if you have concerns and we'll work with you to protect your property. |
