Capacity in real terms
How much actually fits
| What you're loading | How it fits in a 15 yard dumpster |
|---|---|
| A full garage's worth of furniture and boxes | A comfortable fit |
| A single bathroom remodel's demo debris | Fits well within the weight allowance |
| A standard roof tear-off (up to ~15-20 squares) | Typical fit, confirm shingle weight |
| 5-6 pickup truck loads of mixed debris | The container's rated capacity |
A comfortable middle ground
Big enough for a full garage or basement, still compact enough to fit most residential driveways without crowding them. It's the size we recommend most often for a single-trade remodel — a bathroom gut, a roofing tear-off, a flooring replacement.
Storm and seasonal debris
After a winter ice event or during spring yard cleanup, a 15 yard is often the right size — enough room for downed limbs and storm debris without overbuying for a job that's really about volume, not weight.
Where it fits
The 15 yard sits comfortably on a standard residential driveway and most commercial pads. If your lot is genuinely tight, ask about the 10 yard instead.

Answers
15 Yard Dumpster — frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a 10 and a 15 yard?
About 50% more capacity and a slightly bigger footprint. If a job is genuinely a single room, the 10 saves space and cost; if it's a full garage or a remodel, the 15 gives more breathing room.
Is a 15 yard good for a roofing job?
Yes, for most standard-size homes. A larger or steeper roof with multiple layers may need a 20 — tell us the square footage and we'll confirm.
How much storm debris does a 15 yard hold?
A comfortable amount for a typical residential yard after an ice event — downed limbs and branches fill volume fast, so this size usually works well for that kind of bulky, lightweight debris.
Does the 15 yard fit a standard driveway?
Yes, it's sized to sit comfortably on most residential driveways without crowding them out.
What's the weight allowance on a 15 yard?
2-3 tons is included in the flat rate; going over is billed per ton at a disclosed rate.
