Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job in San Marcos? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental, we provide 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; we use a hooklift for precise container placement—and yes, we can perform a quick swap out.

Compare sizes

Most projects in San Marcos fit one of four roll-off sizes: the right choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and space in the container; call (512) 991-0619.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential San Marcos 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 small projects in San Marcos: garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, or attic clear-outs. We set the container on driveway boards to protect your pavement, and the 2,000-pound weight limit suits most household debris loads.

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

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation San Marcos 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 San Marcos metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. This 22-foot container supports a 4,000-pound rating; it handles loads of mixed shingles with framing scrap.

The 20-Yard Container handles whole-house cleanouts and mid-size roof tear-offs in one trip. One swap-out keeps remodel sites clear for a week. Call (512) 991-0619 to book your roll-off today.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a San Marcos 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 built for major projects in San Marcos: home additions, full-house remodels, and estate cleanouts. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your job; the high walls provide framing crews volume.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong San Marcos jobsite debris.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large San Marcos 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: large bin for commercial sites, generally too tall for typical residential driveways.

The 40-yard container is built for new construction and large demolition in the San Marcos metro: we drop this 40-yard with a hooklift truck, and the 8,000-pound rating handles your bulky mixed debris without a second pull.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for new construction and major commercial cleanouts: crews often pair 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: these materials hit the 10,000-pound threshold—far before a standard roll-off looks full—unlike light roofing tear-off square sizing. We follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all site work in San Marcos. Call (512) 991-0619.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the surface: this protects the concrete 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? Selecting the right container depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight, and where the roll-off sits in San Marcos. A 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy materials like concrete hit the tonnage threshold for a container before it is full; light C&D debris fills a box quickly: choose your size for the specific limit you will hit first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

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 a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher with your driveway in view.
