Pick your job below and we will point you to the right size. A fast decision guide for homeowners and contractors across Lake, Orange, Seminole, and West Volusia counties.
The right dumpster depends on your project type and material weight. Small cleanouts and single-room renovations typically fit a 15 or 20 yard. Full roof replacements and estate cleanouts usually need a 20 or 30 yard. Note that we cannot accept dirt or concrete at all.
Find your job in the grid below for a quick size recommendation and the full details, or browse all sizes on our dumpster sizes and dimensions page.
Shingle tear-offs and roof replacements. Usually a 20 or 30 yard, sized for weight not volume.
Roofing →We cannot accept dirt or concrete. See what to do with heavy debris instead.
Concrete →Clear out a packed one or two-car garage. A 15 or 20 yard with walk-in barn doors.
Garage →Clear a full home after a loss, sale, or turnover. Most homes fit a 20 or 30 yard.
Estate →Brush, branches, palm fronds, and storm cleanup. Bulky but light, so a 15 or 20 yard.
Yard waste →Declutter before moving day. Clear what you are not taking with a 15 or 20 yard.
Moving →Kitchen, bath, and flooring remodels. A 15 or 20 yard for most rooms, 30 for whole-home jobs.
Renovation →Job-site roll-offs for GCs and subs. The 30 yard is the workhorse, 40 for big builds.
Contractor →If your job does not fit neatly into one of the categories above, start with the volume of debris and the weight of the material. Lightweight loads like household junk and yard waste can fill a larger container; dense materials like shingles hit the weight limit first. We cannot accept dirt or concrete at all. Our dumpster size guide walks through all four roll-off sizes, and the pricing page explains how the flat rate and weight allowance work.
When in doubt, call. Tell us your project type and ZIP and we will recommend the right container.
Yankee Dumpster is locally owned and operated. Reliability is the baseline here, not a selling point. Our roll-offs feature walk-in barn doors that let you wheel heavy or awkward items straight in instead of heaving them over a wall, a feature no national chain offers in this market. We deliver fast across Lake, Orange, Seminole, and West Volusia counties, offer a 5% military discount on any size, and keep pricing upfront with no surprise fees.
The right size depends on the project type. Small cleanouts (garage, moving prep, single-room remodel) typically need a 15 or 20 yard dumpster. Larger jobs like full roof replacements, estate cleanouts, or whole-home renovations usually fit a 20 or 30 yard. One exception: we cannot accept dirt or concrete at all, so plan a separate disposal route for those materials.
Match the container size to both the volume of debris and the weight of the material. Lightweight materials like household junk or yard waste can fill a larger container. Dense materials like shingles hit weight limits quickly. We cannot accept dirt or concrete at all. Our team can help you confirm the right choice when you call to book.
Any project that generates more debris than curbside pickup handles is a good candidate: roof replacement or repair, home renovation (kitchen, bath, flooring), estate or garage cleanout, moving and downsizing, landscaping and tree removal cleanup, and new construction or contractor site waste. If the job fills more than two or three pickup truck loads, a dumpster is usually cheaper and faster than making multiple dump trips.
Locally owned, flat-rate, and delivered across Lake, Orange, Seminole, and West Volusia counties.
