What size dumpster do I need?

Q: What can I throw in the dumpster?

Construction debris, wood, metal, and general junk. No hazardous waste, chemicals, or tires. If you're unsure, ask us.

Q: How soon can I get a dumpster?

We aim to deliver within 24 hours, often sooner. Need one ASAP? Call us and we'll do everything we can to get it to you same-day.

Q: How does compaction help me save money?

Our compaction partner, Sasquatch Waste, crushes bulky debris right inside your dumpster. That packs in more waste, reduces empty space, and cuts the number of hauls you need. Fewer hauls means lower costs.

For most home cleanouts, remodels and small builds, a 30-yard roll-off is the safe pick. It holds 30 cubic yards, roughly 9 to 10 pickup-truck loads. Smaller 10 and 20-yard bins suit single-room jobs, and 40-yard bins are mostly for large commercial work.

30 cubic yards, about 9 to 10 pickup loads.

One size, so pricing stays simple.

Size guide

Match the bin to the job

Dumpster sizes are measured in cubic yards of space. Pick too small and you pay for a second haul, so when in doubt, size up. Here's a quick way to size your project.

10 to 20 yards

One room. A small bathroom remodel, a single-room cleanout or a small deck tear-out. Bigfoot Bins doesn't rent these sizes.

30 yards

Most homeowner and contractor jobs. Whole-house cleanouts, kitchen remodels, flooring for a full floor and new-home construction debris.

40 yards

Large commercial jobs and major demolition. For many of these, a 30-yard bin plus on-site compaction does the same work with fewer hauls.

The benefits

Why we only rent 30-yard bins.

One size covers most jobs we see, and it keeps pricing simple. If your bin fills early, our compaction partner Sasquatch Waste can crush the load on site so you keep filling instead of paying for a swap.

Not sure how this whole dumpster thing works? No worries—we’ve stomped out the most common questions right here. If you don’t see what you need, just give us a call. We’ll clear it up faster than we can drop off a bin.

How many pickup loads fit in a 30-yard dumpster?

Roughly 9 to 10. A standard pickup bed holds about 3 cubic yards of loose debris, and a 30-yard dumpster holds 30.

What size dumpster do I need for a roof?

It depends on the roof size and how many layers come off. Shingles are heavy, so weight usually matters more than space. Call (225) 217-5114 before booking a roofing job and we'll check it fits.

What can I throw in the dumpster?

Toss in construction debris, wood, metal, and general junk. Just no hazardous waste, chemicals, or tires—we’re in the waste business, not the biohazard business. If you’re unsure, hit us up, and we’ll let you know.

How soon can I get a dumpster?

We aim to deliver within 24 hours—often sooner. Need one ASAP? Call us, and we’ll do everything we can to get it to you same-day.

What size dumpster do I need for a house cleanout?

For most whole-house cleanouts, one 30-yard bin is enough. Very large homes may need a swap, or on-site compaction to make more room.

How does compaction help me save money?

Bigfoot Bins keeps your waste under control, but our compaction partner, Sasquatch Waste, takes it to the next level.
