About this dumpster size guide

This page compares every dumpster size MAC Dumpsters rents: the 10, 15 and 20 yard roll-offs. It gives each size's dimensions, pickup-load capacity, included tonnage and price, then matches common projects to a size, walks through how to choose and lists the terms every size shares. It's written for homeowners, contractors and businesses in Baltimore City and Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel counties.

What size dumpster do I need?

Most home projects need a 15 yard dumpster, which holds about six pickup truck loads. A single room, a small garage or a small roof fits a 10 yard at about four loads. A whole-house cleanout or a multi-room renovation needs a 20 yard at about eight. At MAC Dumpsters, heavy debris like shingles can call for a bigger size, because each step up includes more tons.

Roll-off dumpster sizes we carry

10 yard 15 yard 20 yard
Dimensions (L × W × H) 12 ft × 89 in × 38 in 14 ft × 89 in × 48 in 14 ft × 89 in × 64 in
Pickup truck loads About 4 About 6 About 8
Tons included 1.5 2 3
Price $375 $450 $550

Estimates assume standard 33-gallon trash bags and a full-size pickup bed loaded level with the sides. Actual capacity depends on the material and how it's loaded. Included tonnage applies no matter how full the dumpster looks, and weight over it is billed per ton.

The 10 yard: shortest and lowest

The 10 yard measures 12 feet long with 38-inch sides, holds about four pickup loads and includes 1.5 tons for $375. It's the size for one-room cleanouts, small garages and driveways too short for a 14-foot container. Full specs are on the 10 yard dumpster rental page.

The 15 yard: the size rented most

The 15 yard is 14 feet long with 4-foot walls, holds about six pickup loads and includes 2 tons for $450. It's the container our customers book most, and it handles kitchen and bath remodels, basement cleanouts and mid-size roofs. See the 15 yard dumpster rental page for every measurement.

The 20 yard: most room and weight

The 20 yard is 14 feet long with 64-inch walls, holds about eight pickup loads and includes 3 tons for $550. It's our large dumpster rental for whole-house cleanouts, additions and business cleanouts. The 20 yard dumpster rental page has the full detail.

Which dumpster size fits your project

Cleaning out one room or a garage

A one-room or one-car garage cleanout fits a 10 yard. Household junk is bulky and light, so it fills the space before it reaches 1.5 tons. Larger home projects are covered on our residential dumpster rental page.

Remodeling a kitchen or bathroom

A kitchen or bath remodel usually fits a 15 yard. Cabinets, drywall, flooring and fixtures take more than four pickup loads but rarely fill eight.

Tearing off a roof

Size a roof by squares and weight, not by volume. Before overage, a 10 yard takes about 10 squares of architectural shingles, a 15 yard about 13 and a 20 yard about 20. For 3-tab shingles, those numbers are about 17, 22 and 34. Two layers roughly double the weight, and slate or tile gets sized by phone. Our roofing dumpster guide goes deeper.

Clearing a whole house or an estate

A full house of furniture, basement, attic and garage contents needs a 20 yard. Timing and loading tips are on our estate cleanout dumpster page.

MAC Dumpsters roll-off beside storm debris

Cleaning up after a storm or flood

Flood cleanup usually fits a 10 or 15 yard. The 10 yard's 12-foot length suits narrow waterfront lots, and the 15 yard gives room for room-scale tear-outs. Wet debris is heavy, so watch the tons included. See our storm debris dumpster guide.

How to choose the right size dumpster?

Choose by the volume of your debris first, then check its weight. Estimate your pickup truck loads: about four fits a 10 yard, six a 15 yard and eight a 20 yard. Then make sure the included tons cover heavy material like shingles or plaster. At MAC Dumpsters, stepping up one size costs $75 or $100, far less than paying for a second haul.

Count your pickup loads

Picture your debris loaded into a full-size pickup bed, level with the sides. Up to about four loads points to a 10 yard, five or six to a 15 yard, and seven or eight to a 20 yard. If you're past eight, plan on a swap-out.

Check weight on heavy jobs

Dense debris can pass the included tons before a container looks full. By EPA estimates, a full load of mixed construction debris weighs about 2.1 to 2.4 tons in a 10 yard, 3.1 to 3.6 tons in a 15 yard and 4.2 to 4.8 tons in a 20 yard. Each is more than the tons included, so heavy renovation loads usually carry some overage at $125 per ton. Concrete, brick, block, asphalt and dirt aren't accepted in any size.

Measure the spot

The 10 yard is 12 feet long; the 15 and 20 yard are both 14 feet long, and all three are 89 inches wide. Our truck typically needs about 50 feet of straight-line room, 12 to 14 feet overhead and 10 to 12 feet of width. Call if your spot is tight.

When you're between two sizes

Book the bigger one. Stepping up from a 10 yard to a 15 yard costs $75, and from a 15 yard to a 20 yard costs $100, while a swap-out costs the full rental price again. For a straight answer on a specific pair, read our 10 vs 15 yard dumpster or 15 vs 20 yard dumpster comparison.

Terms that stay the same on every size

Every size rents for 14 calendar days, starting on delivery day, and each extra day is $25. Weight over the included tons is $125 per ton, weighed at the landfill and billed after the dump. A swap-out costs the same as the rental and comes with fresh tonnage. Load every container level with the top; debris above the rim may not be hauled until it's removed, because it can fall onto the road. Freon appliances, hazardous materials, paint, and concrete, brick, block, asphalt and dirt aren't accepted. Tires are $15, mattresses and box springs $30, and e-waste and non-freon appliances $35. The math for each size is in how included tonnage works. We dispose of every load according to local and state regulations.

How much does a roll off dumpster cost to rent?

A roll-off dumpster from MAC Dumpsters costs $375 to $550 to rent, depending on size. The 10 yard is $375, the 15 yard is $450 and the 20 yard is $550. Each price includes delivery, pickup, 14 days and 1.5, 2 or 3 tons, with no delivery fee.

Dumpster size prices and discounts

The price gap between sizes is small next to what a second container costs. A 15 yard is $75 more than a 10 yard, and a 20 yard is $100 more than a 15 yard. Code 3DAY takes $50 off any size rented for 3 days or less. Every rate and fee is listed on our pricing and rental terms page.

How renting a dumpster size works

Pick your size and book online, or call (410) 205-5330 and we'll help you choose. Order by noon for the best chance at same-day delivery, depending on availability. Our driver slides the container off our hook-lift truck into the spot you chose, and your 14 days begin. When it's loaded level with the top, text us and we'll pick it up.

Why rent your dumpster size from MAC

Every measurement is published

Each size lists its length, width, wall height, door, pickup loads and tons included. You can check your driveway and your debris against real numbers before you book.

Stepping up costs less than a second haul

Moving up one size costs $75 or $100. Running out of room and needing a swap-out costs $375 to $550. The ladder is priced so the bigger container is the cheaper mistake.

Sized by the people who haul it

When you call to talk through a size, you reach the company that owns the containers and runs the truck. The advice you get comes from the same people who'll set the container down and pick it up.

Swap-outs, short jobs and ongoing service

Any size can be swapped out when it fills, at the same price as the rental with fresh tonnage. Quick jobs of 3 days or less get $50 off with code 3DAY through our short-term dumpster rental. Businesses that need a container on site with regular swap-outs can set up long-term dumpster service by phone.

Where every size is delivered

All three sizes go out from our Middle River yard to Baltimore City and Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel counties, with no delivery fee anywhere in that area. Check your town on our delivery area page.

Dumpster size questions

What are the sizes of roll off dumpsters?

MAC Dumpsters rents roll-off dumpsters in three sizes: 10, 15 and 20 cubic yards. The 10 yard is 12 feet long and 38 inches high, the 15 yard is 14 feet long and 48 inches high, and the 20 yard is 14 feet long and 64 inches high. All three are 89 inches wide.

Where can I rent a roll off dumpster?

You can rent a roll-off dumpster from MAC Dumpsters anywhere in Baltimore City and Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel counties. Book online or call 410-205-5330. There's no delivery fee anywhere in that area.

What are the alternatives to renting a dumpster?

The main alternatives are hauling debris yourself in a pickup truck or trailer, or using your county's bulk pickup for a few large items. Hauling yourself works for one or two loads. Past that, a 10 yard dumpster holds about four pickup loads in a single delivery, and a 20 yard holds about eight.

How do I get rid of a big piece of furniture?

If it's one of many items you're clearing out, load it into a rented dumpster along with the rest. Every MAC Dumpsters container has a hinged walk-in door, so a dresser or sofa can be carried in instead of lifted over the side. Furniture is accepted in all three sizes.

What dumpster sizes work for construction?

A 15 yard works for most kitchen and bath remodels, and a 20 yard works for multi-room renovations and additions. Mixed construction debris is heavy, so plan for some overage at $125 per ton on a full load. Concrete, brick, block, asphalt and dirt aren't accepted, and contractors can call for special pricing. Our dumpster service for contractors page has the details.
