When you call our team, an experienced Dumpster Consultanta will be waiting to talk to you live about your project’s needs. They’ll listen to what you have to say and make the best recommendation based on the information you provide and their expertise. It never hurts to get a head start though and that’s why we’ve created this handy guide to help you understand how to choose the right Denver roll-off dumpster rental size for your home project.

Key Factors to Consider

While choosing the right dumpster size for a home project may not be an exact science, there are some key factors to consider that will make the decision easier.

• How much waste you have – for a small garage cleanout a 4-yard bin is probably fine
• The weight of your waste – if you’re disposing of old patio tiles you may only be able to use a 10-yard dumpster at the most as a 20-yard bin filled with patio stones would be too heavy for our delivery experts to lift
• Physical barriers – things such as wires may prevent you from renting a 20-yard bin, you may have to opt for something smaller due to safety and practical reasons

Thinking about these different factors ahead of time will make it easier to choose the right dumpster when the time comes. Choosing the right bin the first time can save you money and help you avoid additional charges. You won’t have to pay for the rental of a second bin because you underestimated your needs or for unused space because you rented a dumpster that was too large.

How Much Can You fit in Each Roll-Off Dumpster Rental?

If you’re having trouble figuring out how much you can fit in each dumpster it may be easier if you compare a dumpster’s capacity against that of a standard pick-up truck. At Bin There Dump That we offer 5 different dumpster sizes:

• 4-yard roll-off dumpsters
• 6-yard roll-off dumpsters
• 10-yard roll-off dumpsters
• 15-yard roll-off dumpsters
• 20-yard roll-off dumpsters

There is a “right” project for each one of our dumpster sizes. Take a moment and think about how many dump runs you would have to make in your pick-up truck to remove all of the waste from your job. Now that you have that figured out, here’s a breakdown of how many pick-up loads you can fit into each one of our dumpsters to make your rental decision easier.

While charts are useful to help us picture things, they’re only useful if you know ahead of time how much waste a project will generate. In reality, there’s a good chance that you won’t know how many runs to the dump you’d have to make for a reno job until you finish the project. Fortunately, our service experts have a lot of expertise with different types of projects and they have a pretty good idea of what size bin you will need based on your specific project. Below, you’ll find a quick guide to each one of our dumpster sizes and examples of the types of projects they are used on.

4-Yard Dumpster

If you’re cleaning out a one-car garage or perhaps renovating a small basement bathroom then the 4-yard dumpster should be ideal. It measures 10 feet long, 5.5 feet wide and 2 feet high. It’s equal to about 2 pick-up loads, but you won’t have to make the dump runs – we’ll take care of that for you!

6-Yard Dumpster

With the 6-yard dumpster, you have enough room to clear out that single car garage and declutter a couple of rooms in your house as well. It’s equivalent to 3 dump runs in your truck, but of course, you won’t have to worry about that when you rent a Bin There Dump That dumpster.

10-Yard Dumpster

The 10-yard dumpster is a popular choice for homeowners because it’s large enough to handle the waste from larger home renovation projects. If you’re having your roof re-shingled, this bin is the right one for the job.

15-Yard Dumpster

If you’re remodelling your basement or clearing out years of clutter after the kids move out you’re going to need a fairly large dumpster. The 15-yard bin is the one we usually recommend for these types of projects.

20-Yard Dumpster

The 20-yard dumpster is the largest one we offer. This is a bin that can fit a lot of junk! If you’re putting an addition on the house you’ll generate a lot of waste – this dumpster is up to the job.
