Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental, we serve Longmont with 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; our hooklift trucks deliver every container—offering a quick swap out for your next phase of the project.

Compare sizes

Most projects in Longmont fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the choice depends on the volume of debris, the load weight; you also need to confirm the container fits on the 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 bin handles small-scale jobs in Longmont: garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, or a weekend yard project. We set the container on driveway boards to protect your surface, 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 10-yard 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 Longmont 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 Longmont metro: whole-house decluttering, large flooring jobs, and roof tear-offs. This container has a 22-foot length to fit your driveway; it handles a 4,000-pound load of shingles and framing scrap.

A 20-yard container handles most mid-size jobs in one trip: whole-house decluttering, roof tear-offs up to 2,000 sq ft, and a week of demo-plus-finish debris with just a single swap out.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Longmont 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 Longmont: home additions, full-house remodels, and estate cleanouts. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for multi-week jobs; the tall walls provide needed volume for framing crews.

A 30-yard roll-off keeps Longmont home additions, full-kitchen and full-bath remodels, and week-long job sites clean and efficient.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Longmont 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 40-yard bin for commercial sites, often too tall for residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition across the Longmont metro: we drop this massive bin with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris to keep the site clear without extra pulls.

The 40-yard roll-off handles new construction and major commercial cleanouts: crews often combine this bin with smaller ones when site clearing runs in parallel with the build on your property.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a heavy-duty lowboy—rated for up to 10,000 pounds—rather than a standard roll-off used for roofing tear-off square sizing. You must follow federal EPA construction and demolition material management standards when clearing debris from any job site in Longmont.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the ground: this protects your concrete from damage. If a job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a standard residential roll-off container.

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

Which size fits your project? Choosing the right container in Longmont depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight, and where you place it; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; only heavy demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Concrete and C&D debris hit the tonnage cap before the container overflows: prioritize weight for dense materials; light household items fill the box volume first, so choose a size based on your specific load.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; a 30-yard container requires overhead clearance for the truck mast: a 40-yard is for a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher to confirm the fit in your space.
