The 15 yard dumpster is the size MAC Dumpsters rents most. It costs $450 with 2 tons, 14 days and no delivery fee, and it holds about six pickup truck loads. At 14 feet long with 4-foot walls, it's the middle of the dumpster sizes we carry. We deliver it from our Middle River yard to homes and job sites in Baltimore City and Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel counties.

The 15 yard measures 14 feet long, 89 inches wide and 48 inches high, and it holds 15 cubic yards, or 405 cubic feet. The walls stand exactly 4 feet, a little below shoulder height on most adults. Compared with our 10 yard, it's 2 feet longer and 10 inches taller, which is where the extra 5 cubic yards comes from. A hinged walk-in door lets you roll or carry heavy pieces straight in.
A 15 yard from MAC Dumpsters includes 2 tons, or 4,000 pounds, and each ton over that is $125. We weigh the load at the landfill and bill any overage after the dump, so a load that's one ton over adds $125. That's half a ton more than the 10 yard includes and a ton less than the 20 yard. See included tonnage and overage for how weight adds up by material. We dispose of every load according to local and state regulations.
A 15 yard rental comes with 14 calendar days, counted from delivery day, weekends included. If your job runs longer, each day past day 14 is $25.
A placed 15 yard covers 14 feet by 89 inches. To set it there, our hook-lift truck typically needs about 50 feet of straight-line room to back in, 12 to 14 feet of overhead clearance and 10 to 12 feet of width. Treat those as typical, not minimums, and call if the spot is tight. It can go on any surface, except inside Bel Air town limits, where town code bars dumpsters on grass and other pervious surfaces.
Rent one container big enough to take it in a single load. A 15 yard dumpster holds about six pickup truck loads, or 80 to 100 trash bags, which covers a full room set plus a basement or garage's worth of furniture. Furniture is light for its bulk, so the 2 tons included at MAC Dumpsters usually outlasts the space.
Picture about six full-size pickup beds, each loaded level with the sides. In bags, that's 80 to 100 standard 33-gallon trash bags. A living room set, two bedroom sets and the boxes from a crowded basement is a realistic 15 yard load.
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.
Fill a 15 yard only up to the top of its 4-foot walls. A load piled above the rim may not be hauled until the extra comes off, because loose debris can fall onto the road on the way to the landfill. Break down tables and bed frames so they lie flat, and you'll fit more below the line.
A 15 yard can't take concrete, brick, block, asphalt or dirt. Refrigerators, air conditioners and other appliances with freon are out too, along with paint and hazardous materials. Tires ($15 each), mattresses and box springs ($30 each), and e-waste and non-freon appliances ($35 each) are accepted with a fee.
A kitchen or bath tear-out mixes cabinets, drywall, flooring and fixtures, which is more than a 10 yard holds but rarely enough to fill a 20. A full 15 yard of mixed construction debris weighs roughly 3.1 to 3.6 tons by EPA estimates, so a load of plaster and tile can pass the 2 tons included. Mix in lighter debris, or plan on some overage at $125 per ton. Other home project sizes are on our home project dumpster page.
A 15 yard takes about 13 squares of architectural shingles or about 22 squares of 3-tab before it goes over 2 tons. Architectural shingles weigh about 300 pounds per square and 3-tab about 175, and a second layer roughly doubles that. That covers a lot of single-layer roofs on ranchers and split-levels. Our roofing dumpster rental page walks through sizing by squares, and slate or tile gets sized by phone.
After water gets into a basement or a first floor, the 15 yard gives you room for room-scale tear-outs: carpet, pad, drywall and ruined furniture from several rooms. Soaked material is heavy, so keep an eye on the 2 tons included. More on sizing wet debris is in our storm debris dumpster guide.
A 15 yard dumpster rental costs $450 at MAC Dumpsters. That price covers delivery, pickup, 14 calendar days and 2 tons of weight, with no delivery fee. Weight over 2 tons is $125 per ton, and days past day 14 are $25 each.
The $450 pays for the drop-off, the pickup, two full weeks on site and disposal of up to 2 tons. We don't add a delivery fee, trip charge, fuel surcharge or environmental surcharge anywhere we serve.
Only five charges can be added, each at a published rate: $125 per ton over 2 tons, $25 per day after day 14, $15 per tire, $30 per mattress or box spring, and $35 per e-waste item or non-freon appliance. Code 3DAY takes $50 off a rental of 3 days or less, bringing a short 15 yard job to $400.
Across our 2025 and 2026 orders, the 15 yard is the container customers booked most. It holds enough for a remodel or a full-room cleanout without the price of the 20.
The 15 yard's 48-inch walls add 10 inches of depth over the 10 yard, yet they sit 16 inches lower than the 20 yard's. That keeps loading by hand manageable while still taking about six pickup loads.
MAC Dumpsters is run by Adam Graf, with Tara Graf in the office. The 15 yard in your driveway came off our truck, set down by our driver, from our yard at 1112 Middle River Rd.
We bring the 15 yard to Baltimore City and across Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel counties, from Towson and White Marsh to Bel Air, Glen Burnie and Annapolis. No address in that area pays a delivery fee. Check your town on our list of delivery areas.
Yes, a couch fits in a 15 yard dumpster with plenty of room left over. The container is 14 feet long and 89 inches wide, so a couch can lie flat on the floor alongside other furniture. Couches are bulky but light, so several can go in before the 2 tons included comes into play.
At MAC Dumpsters, the 15 yard is the size rented most, based on our 2025 and 2026 orders. It sits between our 10 yard at $375 and our 20 yard at $550. It holds about six pickup loads, enough for a kitchen remodel or a full-room cleanout in one haul.
Break the boxes down flat and load them into a rented container. Flattened cardboard takes a fraction of the space of open boxes, and a 15 yard dumpster holds about 80 to 100 bags' worth of material. Cardboard is light, so weight is rarely the issue.
Yes, clothes can go in a MAC Dumpsters container. They count as household junk, which is accepted. Bag them first so they load faster and don't blow around.
The easiest way is to have a container dropped where you're working, load it on your schedule, and have it hauled away. With MAC Dumpsters you get 14 days to fill it, and you text us when you're done. We only drop off and haul the container; the loading is yours. Our accepted and prohibited items list shows what can go in.
