How to Choose the Right Dumpster Size
Choosing the correct dumpster size depends on several important factors.
- Type of Debris – Heavy materials such as concrete, dirt, roofing shingles, and brick typically require smaller dumpsters due to weight restrictions.
- Project Scope – Larger projects naturally generate more debris and may require 20-yard, 30-yard, or 40-yard dumpsters.
- Available Placement Space – Make sure your driveway or job site has enough room for the dumpster and delivery truck.
