Compare sizes

Most projects in the Plano area fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: your choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load; we deliver the right container to you.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Plano concrete driveway, mid-day sunlight, clean and ready for a garage cleanout.

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 works for garage cleanouts or small remodels in Plano: it fits tight driveways on driveway boards to protect the surface. The dumpster handles a typical household load with its 2,000-pound weight limit for debris like drywall, furniture, or packed boxes.

A 10-yard roll-off is for when your load is dense: the call is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or C&D debris fills a container before the volume looks full; this is ideal for a roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Plano 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 projects in the Plano metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. The 22-foot container fits on your residential drive; it holds a 4,000-pound load of shingles and framing scrap.

The 20-Yard Container clears whole-house decluttering and mid-size roof tear-offs, handling both demo and finish work with one Roofing Dumpster Pricing swap out to keep crews on schedule.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Plano 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

A 30-yard dumpster is built for serious volume; it handles large estate cleanouts and home additions in Plano with ease: the container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your full-house remodel or multi-week site project.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen and full-bath remodels, and weeklong Plano jobsite output.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Plano 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: too tall for residential driveways, this massive bin suits large commercial lots

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Plano metro: we drop this bin with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers bulky mixed debris for your project to avoid a second haul.

The 40-yard roll-off handles large commercial cleanouts and new construction projects: we often pair it with a smaller bin for yard waste when clearing the site in parallel with the build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced Lowboy—rated for 10,000 pounds—because these materials bottom out a standard Roll-Off long before it looks full. This equipment differs from roofing tear-off square sizing, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all waste removal in Plano.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before a single load of material hits your property: it prevents cracks in the concrete. If the 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 roll-off depends on three factors: volume, weight, and placement. Most Plano residents use a 10-yard or 20-yard container; remodels need a 30-yard; and large demolitions require a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers to handle the load.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Dense materials like concrete or C&D debris hit the tonnage limit of a container quickly; lighter household items fill the box volume first: always size for the specific constraint you will hit first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

Placement depends on your space: a 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard is for commercial lots. Send a photo to our dispatcher in Plano.
