How Do I Pick the Right Dumpster Size?
The mistake people make is renting small to save money and then filling it before the job is done. A garage cleanout fits a 10. A full room or a flooring tear-out is a 15. A kitchen remodel, a roof, or a job site full of construction debris is a 20. A whole-house cleanout, an estate, or a new build is a 30. The 25 is the exception, same footprint as the 20 with more wall, for a job that fills up on light, bulky debris but has to sit on a tight lot.
When you're between two sizes, go up. The price difference is small next to what a second rental and a second haul would cost.

The rules are the same for every size. Most of what a cleanout or a remodel throws off goes straight in, and there's a short list we have to turn away.
Goes in the dumpster
- Household junk and furniture
- Remodel and construction debris
- Roofing and flooring tear-off
- Yard waste and brush
- Concrete, dirt, and brick, in their own dumpster at a weight rate
We can't take
- Food waste, the big one
- Wet paint, oils, and chemicals
- Batteries and tires
- Mattresses and box springs
- Fridges and freezers
Call about anything questionable before it goes in. Food waste causes the most trouble, keep it out.
Dumpster Size Questions
What people ask us before they book. The full FAQ has the rest.
What size dumpster do I need in Columbia?
A garage or shed cleanout usually fits a 10-yard. A remodel or a roofing job is 20-yard territory. An entire house or a new build takes a 30. When it's close, go up a size, it costs a lot less than a second dumpster. Call (803) 408-9990 if you want a second opinion.
How much does a dumpster cost in Columbia?
Rates aren't posted as one number for everybody. The booking page shows your exact figure, and nothing is final until you confirm.
What's included with every dumpster rental?
Delivery, pickup, 14 days, and the weight allowance for the size. That's the same on every rental.
Do your dumpsters take concrete and dirt?
Yes, which not everyone does. Heavy material gets a dumpster of its own with a weight-based rate, usually a 10-yard. Mention it on the phone and the right one goes out.
What size dumpster fits in a driveway?
All of them except the 30 fit a normal driveway. The 10 and 15 fit almost anywhere, and the 20 and 25 fit most. The 30-yard is 22 feet long, so it needs a longer stretch or an open patch of the site.
What's the most popular dumpster size?
The 20-yard, by a lot. It handles remodels, roofs, and general construction debris, and it's the size we stock the most of.
