A clean lineup of matte-black roll-off dumpsters in 10, 20, 30, and 40-yard sizes staged on a sunlit gravel yard in Burnsville, showing the size progression from compact to commercial-scale containers.

Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job in Burnsville? Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental provides 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; we use a precise hooklift for placement—plus, we handle every quick swap out for your waste container.

Compare sizes

Most projects in the Burnsville metro fit into one of four standard roll-off sizes: the choice depends on the volume of debris; the container must also account for the room on the driveway.

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 bin handles common cleanouts in Burnsville: garage junk, single-room demo, or attic clear-out. We set the container on driveway boards to protect your surface, and the 2,000-pound weight limit fits a weekend's worth of household debris.

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

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Burnsville 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 Burnsville metro: whole-house decluttering and roof tear-offs. The 22-foot container fits on most residential drives; its 4,000-pound rating handles a mix of shingles and framing scrap.

The 20-yard container is built for mid-size projects; it clears whole-house decluttering and a mid-size roof tear-off in one haul, and a single swap out keeps a week of demo and finish work moving without delay.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Burnsville 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 Burnsville: it holds framing debris or large estate cleanouts. This container pairs with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your job; the high walls give crews the volume to work.

The 30-Yard Roll-Off Container handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels and multi-day Burnsville, Minnesota projects.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Burnsville 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: for large commercial sites but generally too tall for typical residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles large demolition and new construction in the Burnsville area: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris without the need to haul a second container.

The 40-yard roll-off serves large new construction and commercial cleanouts: our crews often pair it with a smaller yard debris bin when site clearing runs in parallel with the main build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a heavy-duty lowboy — a container rated for 10,000 pounds — rather than a lighter container used for roofing tear-off square sizing. We follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards when hauling these items from your site in Burnsville.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the surface: this protects the concrete for your property. 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? Choosing the right roll-off depends on three factors: volume of debris, total weight, and placement on your property; a 10-yard or 20-yard container works for most in Burnsville; 30-yard bins fit remodels; and only large demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy material like concrete hits tonnage limits before filling a container: masonry and C&D debris occupy less space than volume-heavy junk; always size the box for the constraint you will hit first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; however, larger sizes require specific space: a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast, while a 40-yard bin belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher.
