The size you’ll need largely depends on the scope of your project and the amount of waste you’ll be disposing of. For example, for a minor renovation project or yard cleanout, you may need a 10-yard dumpster that can hold around 50-60 trash bags.

On the other hand, if you’re doing a large cleanout or some minor construction work, you may need the 30-yard dumpster that holds up to 190 trash bags. If you’re still unsure about which size you need, call our friendly team to help you tailor the dumpster rental to your specific project.

The following materials are acceptable to go into a roll-off dumpster: household junk (old furniture, carpets, general clutter); construction debris (wood, drywall, tiles, roofing shingles); and yard waste (organic materials like leaves, grass clippings, and branches).

However, these next materials cannot go into a roll-off dumpster: hazardous waste (paints, solvents, chemicals, pesticides); asbestos; tires; batteries; appliances with freon (refrigerators and air conditioners); flammable materials; and medical waste. Electronics (e-waste) are also often restricted from dumpster disposal. This category includes toasters, coffee makers, microwave ovens, and laboratory equipment. Check your local regulations for e-waste management or consult with our team of experts.

When loading your dumpster, try your best to keep everything level with the top edge. Nothing should stick out over the sides. Overfilling a dumpster will create safety hazards and may result in additional fees from offloading excess waste.

Furthermore, keep the weight limits in mind. Each dumpster has a weight limit, so be careful with heavy debris like concrete, dirt, or roofing materials. Going over the weight limit may lead to extra charges or penalties. It may also make hauling the dumpster safely challenging.

The biggest difference between residential and construction dumpsters comes down to how they’re used and what they can carry. Residential dumpsters usually range from 10-yard to 20-yard sizes to fit in driveways. They’re ideal for home projects (garage cleanouts, spring cleaning, or small renovations). You can put common household junk, yard waste, and light construction debris in them.

Construction dumpsters, on the other hand, are usually larger (20-yard to 40-yard sizes) to carry heavier and bulkier materials. They usually handle concrete, bricks, drywall, and roofing shingles. Construction sites, demolition projects, or major remodels may need this type of dumpster.

It depends on where you plan to place the dumpster. Generally, you don’t need a permit if you plan on putting the dumpster on your private property. However, you require a permit if the dumpster is placed on a public street, sidewalk, or other city-owned property.

Most cities in the state of Colorado require a right-of-way (ROW) permit for placing a dumpster on public property. The permit is issued by a city or county. Since rules vary by location, it’s always wise to check with your local city or county office in Colorado before starting your project.
