Dumpster Sizes
and Weight Limits.
15, 20 or 30 Yard.
Bubs Disposal rents three roll-off sizes: 15, 20 and 30 yard. Every size comes with weight included: 1, 2 or 3 tons. Most home projects fit a 15 or a 20. Here is the size, the weight and the space each one needs, so you know before you order.
Two things decide your size.
What you are tossing, and how much of it there is. Bulky and light stuff, like furniture and cabinets, runs out of room first. Heavy stuff, like shingles and tile, runs out of weight first. Pick by room for the first kind and by weight for the second.
One ton is 2,000 pounds. Household junk rarely gets there. Shingles and tile get there fast. Tell us what you are loading and we will do the math with you on the phone.
Standard rental is 5 days. If you need longer, just text or call us to extend.
Why Utah keeps calling Bubs Disposal.
Every size, side by side.
Priced by bin, with weight included: 1 ton on the 15 yard, 2 tons on the 20, 3 tons on the 30. Go past your included weight and it is $49 a ton, every size.
A garage or basement cleanout, a one-room remodel, or a yard cleanup.
A kitchen remodel, a flooring job, or clearing a house before a move.
Roofing, whole-house cleanouts, big renovations and demo. Same footprint as the 20, with taller walls.
What size for your project.
Different jobs fill a bin differently. Here is how we usually size them.
Cleanouts and Yard Work
Furniture, boxes, carpet and yard waste are bulky and light. You run out of room before you run out of weight, so pick by volume.
A single garage or one room usually fits a 15 yard. A full basement or a house move-out usually wants the 20.
Kitchen, Bath and Flooring Remodels
Cabinets, drywall, flooring and fixtures. A one-room job fits a 15. A kitchen or a whole floor usually wants the 20.
Tile is the one to watch. It is heavy, so a tile job can hit the weight limit before the bin looks full. Tell us about it when you call.
Roofing
We recommend a 30 yard for roofing. Shingles are heavy, and the 30 gives you the most weight included at 3 tons.
Roofers know their own jobs. If you want a smaller bin for a smaller roof, that is your call and we will bring it.
Demo and Big Renovations
When everything goes, take the 30. It has the same footprint as the 20 with taller walls and 3 tons included.
Concrete and brick go in dedicated concrete bins, not a regular dumpster. Tell us when you call and we will send the right one.
Will it fit in my driveway?
All three sizes are 8 feet wide. A 15 or 20 yard needs about 22 feet long by 8 feet wide of clear space. A 30 yard needs about 24 feet.
The truck also needs about 12 feet of clearance overhead to tip the bin off. Look up before you pick the spot: tree branches, power lines and garage overhangs are the usual problems.
Not sure? Text us a photo of the spot and we will tell you. If the bin has to sit on the street, double-check with your local government first.
All three sizes, across the Wasatch Front and Back.
