Clearing brush, branches, palm fronds, sod, or storm debris? Rent a yard waste dumpster from locally owned Yankee Dumpster. Fast delivery across Central Florida.
Yes. Grass clippings, leaves, branches, brush, and palm fronds are accepted in standard roll-off dumpsters in Florida. Dirt and soil are not: we cannot accept dirt at all, so keep root balls and soil out of the load. Organic yard waste is lightweight and fills containers quickly. A 15 yard dumpster handles light seasonal cleanup, and a yard cleanup that includes a tree needs a 20 yard.
Florida has state-level regulations around yard waste at the municipal disposal and landfill level, but those rules govern curbside programs and landfill tipping procedures rather than individual residential roll-off customers in the same way. For most homeowners, the answer is simply: yes, put your yard waste in the dumpster. If your load is entirely clean organic material, ask us whether clean green-waste routing is available in your county.
Yard waste like branches, brush, and palm fronds is fine, but we cannot accept dirt or concrete at all. See what can go in a dumpster, or call (352) 738-6748 with your project and ZIP.
For light residential yard cleanup (seasonal trimming, leaf and brush clearing), a 15 yard dumpster is the right choice. Yard waste is bulky but lightweight, so a 15 yard fills up faster than you might expect when loaded with branches and brush. A yard cleanup that includes a tree needs a 20 yard, and larger projects (full-yard landscaping renovation, major storm cleanup, or multiple tree removals) call for the 20 yard too.
Yard waste is one of the lightest materials that goes in a dumpster, so you will almost certainly fill the container before approaching the weight limit. That makes a larger container reasonable for big jobs. If the project also includes hardscape removal, note that we cannot accept dirt or concrete, and that includes masonry like pavers and brick.
Yankee Dumpster offers standard roll-off containers that accept yard waste along with other types of debris. Specialty green-waste-only containers are a separate product category that not every roll-off company offers. For most Central Florida homeowners, a standard roll-off that accepts yard waste is the right and most cost-effective solution.
We serve homeowners, landscapers, and tree service companies across Orlando, Mt Dora, Eustis, Apopka, Sanford, Clermont, Longwood, and throughout Lake, Orange, Seminole, and West Volusia counties.

A 15 yard dumpster covers light residential yard projects: seasonal cleanup and trimming jobs. A yard cleanup that includes a tree needs a 20 yard, and larger projects (full landscaping renovation, multiple large tree removals, or storm cleanup across a larger property) fit the 20 yard as well. Yard waste is lightweight, so you will almost always run out of volume before hitting the weight limit.
