Most projects in the Ann Arbor area fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right container choice depends on the volume of debris; the weight of the load matters for the driveway.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Ann Arbor concrete driveway, mid-day sunlight, clean and ready for a garage cleanout.

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 Roll-Off Container works well for household cleanouts in Ann Arbor. Its compact size fits tight driveways with Driveway-Protected Placement. This bin handles packed boxes, old furniture, and general debris under the 2,000-pound weight limit.

A 10-yard roll-off is for projects with limited space: the call is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or C&D debris fills a small container quickly; use this for a single-story roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads in a yard.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. This 22-foot container has a 4,000-pound rating; it handles shingles and framing scrap on your residential driveway.

The 20-yard container handles the mid-size project with ease: one haul cleans out a whole house, another takes a mid-size roof tear-off, and a single swap out covers a full week of demo and finish debris.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Ann Arbor 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

A 30-yard dumpster is built for large projects in Ann Arbor: home additions, estate cleanouts, and full-house remodels. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options; the taller walls provide the volume needed for framing debris.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong jobsite output across Ann Arbor.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Ann Arbor 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: large bin for commercial sites, generally too tall for standard residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition across the Ann Arbor metro: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—an 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris, so you finish the job without a second pull.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for new construction and major commercial projects: crews often pair it with a smaller yard-debris bin when the site clearing runs in parallel with building work.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy—rated for 10,000 pounds—because these materials bottom out a standard roll-off long before it looks full. This equipment differs from roofing tear-off square sizing, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all jobs in Ann Arbor.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the floor: this protects the surface of your driveway. If a job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a standard 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: the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and where the container sits on your property; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most in Ann Arbor; a 30-yard fits a remodel; 40-yard jobsite construction debris containers serve demolitions.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy materials like masonry reach their Tonnage capacity before filling a container: it is a matter of density; conversely, C&D debris and household junk fill the volume of a box before hitting the limit.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives: a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo of your space to our dispatcher for confirmation.
