A clean lineup of matte-black roll-off dumpsters in 10, 20, 30, and 40-yard sizes staged on a sunlit gravel yard in Brentwood, showing the size progression from compact to commercial-scale containers.

Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental, we provide 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes for Brentwood; we use a hooklift to place your container—or handle a quick swap out—with precision and care.

Compare sizes

Most projects in Brentwood fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: your choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load; a container must fit on the driveway.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Brentwood 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 handles smaller jobs in Brentwood: garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, or attic clear-outs. We set the dumpster on driveway boards to protect your pavement, and the 2,000-pound weight limit works for most household debris.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for dense C&D debris; the decision is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or concrete fills a container before the volume looks full. This works for a roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads in a driveway.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Brentwood 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 several projects in the Brentwood metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, or flooring jobs. The 22-foot length fits on your residential driveway; the 4,000-pound rating handles shingles with framing scrap.

The 20-yard container carries the load for mid-size projects: whole-house decluttering, roof tear-offs and a full week of remodel demo debris hauled in one trip; a single swap out covers week-two finish work.

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

The 30-yard dumpster is ideal for Brentwood home projects: it handles full-house remodels and estate cleanouts with ease. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your job; it provides volume for large framing crews.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong Brentwood job-site debris loads.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Brentwood 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: ideal for large commercial lots but too tall for most residential driveways

The 40-yard container is built for new construction and large demolition work in the Brentwood metro: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck; the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris without needing a second haul.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for new construction and major commercial cleanouts: crews often combine it with a smaller yard-debris bin when the site clearing runs 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 dense materials fill a standard roll-off long before it looks full. This setup differs from roofing tear-off square sizing, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all Brentwood projects.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the floor: this protects the surface of your driveway. If the job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a residential roll-off container.

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

Which size fits your project? Picking the right roll-off depends on three factors: the volume of your debris, the weight, and where the container sits on your driveway; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most in Brentwood; a 30-yard fits a remodel; demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Masonry hits the Tonnage limit before the container fills: concrete and brick require smaller loads; C&D debris like drywall fills the box volume with lighter material, so size for whichever limit you hit first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives: the 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher with your driveway for placement.
