Most projects in the Tacoma area fit one of four roll-off sizes: your choice depends on the volume of debris; the weight of the load matches the container for your specific driveway.

10-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 15 ft long, 8 ft wide, roughly 3.5 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 3 pickup truck loads, 2,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: a single car length, easy placement on tight lots

The 10-Yard Container handles Tacoma garage cleanouts efficiently, offering Driveway-Protected Placement to prevent surface damage. Its 2,000-pound limit accommodates packed boxes and furniture, while the compact footprint fits snugly in tight driveways. Call (325) 795-9540 for details.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for dense C&D debris: the call is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or concrete fills a container before the volume looks full; this works for a single-story roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Tacoma home directly on the asphalt driveway, with framing materials and torn-off shingles staged neatly nearby.

20-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 7 ft wide, roughly 4.5 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 6 pickup truck loads, 4,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: two car lengths, still comfortable on most residential drives

A 20-yard dumpster is a good fit for several projects in the Tacoma area: whole-house decluttering, large flooring jobs, and roof tear-offs. This container has a 22-foot length for residential driveways; its 4,000-pound rating handles shingles and framing scrap.

The 20-yard container is the go-to for mid-size projects. It hauls whole-house decluttering and a roof tear-off in one trip; a single swap out covers the full week of demo and finish work on site.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Tacoma residential addition jobsite, with framing lumber and drywall scraps loaded through the open swinging rear doors.

30-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 7 ft wide, roughly 6 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 9 pickup truck loads, 6,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: two car lengths plus extra height — confirm overhead clearance

The 30-yard dumpster is built for large projects in Tacoma: it handles full-house remodels and framing debris. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for estate cleanouts; the tall walls offer the volume your job needs.

The 30-yard roll-off handles big Tacoma home additions, full-kitchen and full-bath remodels, and keeps weeklong job sites clean.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Tacoma commercial construction lot, with a hooklift delivery truck parked alongside under bright midday sky.

40-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 8 ft wide, roughly 8 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 12 pickup truck loads, 8,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: large bin for commercial sites, generally too tall for standard residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition work in the Tacoma metro: we drop it with a hooklift truck; the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris on long jobs to avoid a second haul.

The 40-yard roll-off handles new construction and major commercial cleanouts: crews often combine it with a smaller yard-debris bin when the site clearing runs in parallel with building work on the property.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Heavy concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy: our specialty container for high-density loads—rated to 10,000 pounds—that differs significantly from roofing tear-off square sizing. We handle these materials in Tacoma following all EPA construction and demolition material management standards for your site.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before a single load of debris hits the surface: this protects your property from damage. If the job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a residential roll-off container.

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

Which size fits your project? Choosing the right container depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight of your load, and where the roll-off sits in Tacoma. A 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; a 40-yard or jobsite construction debris containers is for demolitions.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Dense materials like concrete or C&D debris hit the tonnage limit of a container quickly; lighter household items fill the box before the weight adds up: always plan for the constraint you trigger first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

Placement depends on your site: a 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard is for a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher.
