The 20 yard dumpster is what most Eau Claire customers end up booking, and for good reason. It's large enough to handle a whole-home cleanout or a real kitchen-and-bath remodel, but its footprint still fits a standard residential driveway without crowding it out.

Capacity in real terms
How much actually fits
| What you're loading | How it fits in a 20 yard dumpster |
|---|---|
| A whole home's furniture and general clutter | Fits most single-family homes |
| A full kitchen remodel (cabinets, countertops, flooring) | Comfortable fit within the weight allowance |
| A standard roof tear-off, larger home | Typical fit for most residential roofs |
| 6-8 pickup truck loads of mixed debris | The container's rated capacity |
Why it's the most popular size
Its low walls make it easy to throw things over the side rather than carrying everything through the house, and its capacity covers most single-family projects without a second container.
Kitchen and bath remodels
Cabinets, countertops, tile and fixtures from a kitchen or bathroom remodel fit comfortably, with enough weight allowance to handle stone countertops or a full tile tear-out without immediately hitting the ton limit.
Whole-home cleanouts
Clearing out a whole home — furniture, boxes, old appliances, general clutter across every room — is the classic 20 yard job. For a fully furnished larger home, two loads is sometimes more realistic than one; we'll talk through it on the phone.
