Construction Dumpster Tips for Elk Rapids, MI
Dumpsters for Construction Debris
What are the most common commercial dumpster sizes?
The most popular construction dumpster sizes are 10 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard, and 40 yard containers. Sizes and availability vary by company, so check with a couple of different companies to be sure you get the size you need when you need it. Some rental providers specialize in compact dumpsters designed specifically for residential use (e.g., home renovations, remodeling projects, small cleanouts, and other small home projects).
Which construction dumpster size should I rent?
Depending on the size and scope of your project, a 10 yard dumpster may be plenty; while other situations may call for as big as a 40 yard dumpster. When clean-loading heavy, high-density debris, like shingles or concrete, smaller containers, like 10 or 20 yarders are generally used. Many rental companies will require the use of smaller containers for heavy materials for the sake of keeping weight at a level that can still be physically hauled away by the dumpster truck. The dumpster rental providers you speak to will be able to help you choose the best dumpster size for your project needs.
