Compare sizes

Most projects in the Dearborn area fit one of four roll-off sizes: the right container choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load; and the driveway space available.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Dearborn concrete driveway, mid-day sunlight, clean and ready for a garage cleanout.

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 bin handles small-scale cleanups in Dearborn: garage clear-outs, attic sweeps, or single-room remodels. We set the container on driveway boards to protect your pavement, and the 2,000-pound weight limit suits most household debris loads.

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; use this for a roof tear-off or when comparing yard debris container choices for lighter loads.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Dearborn 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 Dearborn area: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. The 22-foot length fits on most residential driveways; this container handles a 4,000-pound load of shingles.

The 20-Yard Container handles mid-size projects like whole-house decluttering and roof tear-offs in one trip. Contractors use one swap-out to cover demo and finish waste for week-long remodels without delays.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Dearborn 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 scale: home additions, full-house remodels, and estate cleanouts in Dearborn. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your project; the 6,000-pound capacity covers mixed construction debris on long jobs.

The 30-yard roll-off holds everything from Dearborn home additions to full-kitchen and full-bath remodels and keeps weeklong job sites clean.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Dearborn 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 typical residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition across the Dearborn area: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris to haul everything away in one trip.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for new construction and large commercial cleanouts: contractors often pair it with a smaller yard-debris bin when the site clearing runs in parallel with the build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy—rated for 10,000 pounds—because these materials bottom out a standard roll-off quickly. This differs from simple roofing tear-off square sizing projects in Dearborn. We follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all disposal tasks.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before a single shovel of the material hits the concrete: this prevents damage to your property. If a 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, what it weighs, and where the roll-off sits on your property; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most in Dearborn; a 30-yard is for remodels; and 40-yard jobsite construction debris containers are for demolitions.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy materials like concrete hit the tonnage threshold in a container long before they fill the box; bulky C&D debris fills space first: choose your size based on the specific limit you reach soonest.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

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 belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher with your driveway to confirm.
