Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental, we serve Hartford with 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; we use a hooklift to place your container—and we offer a prompt swap out for your site.

Compare sizes

Most projects in Hartford fit into one of our four roll-off sizes: the right container choice depends on the volume of debris; the weight of the load matters for the driveway space.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Hartford 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 roll-off works for garage cleanouts and single-room remodels in Hartford: we set the bin on driveway boards to protect your pavement, and the 2,000-pound weight limit handles a typical household haul. The compact footprint fits tight driveways with room to work.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call 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.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Hartford 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 Hartford metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. The 22-foot length fits on most residential drives; the 4,000-pound rating handles shingles with framing scrap.

The 20-yard container is the go-to for mid-size projects: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and a remodel crew’s week-long demo and finish work all fit in one load; a single swap out covers the second week.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Hartford 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 Hartford: it handles home additions, large estate cleanouts, and full-house remodels. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options; the taller walls provide space for your jobsite debris.

The 30-yard roll-off holds everything from Hartford home additions to full-kitchen or full-bath remodels and weeklong job sites.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Hartford 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 volume bin for commercial sites too tall for typical residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition work in the Hartford metro: we drop the unit 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 projects and new builds: crews often pair it with a smaller bin for yard waste when the site clearing runs in parallel with the work.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy: these materials hit the 10,000-pound threshold quickly compared to roofing tear-off square sizing. We dispatch this equipment—rated for dense loads—to your site in Hartford, ensuring compliance with EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all your heavy debris.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any of your material hits the ground: this prevents damage to the concrete. If a 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? Picking a container in Hartford comes down to three factors: the volume of debris, the weight, and where the roll-off sits on your driveway; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; and demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Dense materials like concrete or C&D debris hit the Tonnage allowance before the box is full: masonry weighs down the container; household junk fills the volume before you reach the limit for the load.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; however, size requirements change: a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast, while a 40-yard bin is for a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher.
