Dumpster
Rental Sizes

When you are completely gutting and remodeling your basement, how do you know what size of roll-off dumpster rental you should get? What size should you get if you are cleaning out grandma’s garage (keep in mind that grandma lived through the Great Depression and is a bit of a hoarder)? It can be hard to estimate.

The number of available dumpster sizes can be intimidating if you don’t know what you need, but here are some guidelines on our common dumpster sizes to help you select the right size for your project.

From the smallest to the largest:
