Most projects in the Boise area fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and the space for a container.

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 handles garage cleanouts, attic debris, or small remodels in Boise. We set it on driveway boards to protect surfaces. The 2,000-pound limit covers most household loads. Call (208) 754-2286.

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

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

The 20-yard container is the workhorse for mid-size projects: it clears whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and the debris a remodel crew pulls over a week with just one swap out on site.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Boise 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

A 30-yard dumpster manages large projects in Boise: home additions, full-house remodels, and estate cleanouts. The 6,000-pound capacity fits mixed debris; this container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your big job on site.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong jobsite output across Boise.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Boise 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 40-yard bin for commercial lots, usually too tall for residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Boise 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 projects: crews often pair this bin with smaller containers for yard waste when clearing the site in parallel with the main construction of the new build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Reinforced lowboys handle dense materials: concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil. These compact containers manage weight differently than standard roofing tear-off square sizing—rated up to 10,000 pounds. Our team in Boise follows EPA construction and demolition material management standards to ensure your heavy project stays compliant.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the ground: this protects the surface of your driveway from damage. 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? Picking the right container depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and where you place the roll-off in Boise; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; and 40-yard jobsite construction debris containers are for demolitions.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Dense materials like concrete hit the tonnage capacity of a container quickly; lighter C&D debris fills a box before the limit: size for the constraint you expect to meet first with your load.

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 bin belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo of your site to our dispatcher.
