Dumpster Sizes Compared: 15 & 20-Yard Roll Off Guide

Choosing the right dumpster size saves you money and headaches. Here's how to pick between our two roll off dumpster sizes.

15-Yard Roll Off Dumpster

Dimensions: 16' long x 7.5' wide x 4.5' tall

Capacity: ~4-5 pickup truck loads or 75 trash bags

Price: $350

Best For:

• Garage and shed cleanouts
• Single bathroom renovations
• Kitchen or basement cleanouts
• Decluttering and downsizing
• Medium landscaping projects
• Moving cleanup

The 15-yard is our most popular size — handles the widest range of home projects and is our most affordable dumpster rental option.

20-Yard Roll Off Dumpster

Dimensions: 22' long x 7.5' wide x 4.5' tall

Capacity: ~6-8 pickup truck loads or 100 trash bags

Price: $400

Best For:

• Kitchen gut renovations
• Roof tear-offs and replacements
• Multi-room renovations
• Estate and whole-house cleanouts
• Construction debris
• Deck demolition

Quick Decision Guide

• Small to medium project (garage, bathroom, yard, single room): 15-yard ($350)
• Demolition, construction, or multiple rooms: 20-yard ($400)

When in doubt, go with the 20-yard. The $50 difference is nothing compared to the hassle of needing a second dumpster.
