A 20-yard dumpster is a very popular option when compared with other sizes. You can fill it with close to six pickup bed loads worth of trash and debris. You can easily understand why it’s the favorite size for a number of projects such as home remodeling, roof repairs, garage or shed demolition, and home cleanouts. These are just a few of the things for which a 20-yard roll-off dumpster can be used. It is both versatile and affordable.
The normal weight capacity of our 20-yard dumpster is around ten tons or 20,000 pounds.
The standard period of rental for a 20-yard dumpster is about one week. However, the time you need a rental roll-off dumpster may be considerably less or more.
Remember, hazardous or prohibited materials cannot be used; items such as tires, mattresses, automotive fluids, and batteries are some examples of the waste that can’t be thrown in your roll-off. Be sure to check with Dumpstermaxx if you aren’t sure what you can throw in your dumpster. We will be happy to assist you.
Why 20-Yard Roll-Off Dumpsters Are so Popular
Our 20-yard model has an open top for easier loading; making it convenient to load cumbersome items like furniture, appliances, concrete, and demolition rubble. It is also the top model for house and garage cleanouts. It can seem as if it is a friend to families that are having to deal with a hoarder. Clearing a house of dangerous fire hazards or fall hazards such as stacks of old newspapers or magazines can be a relief to the loved ones of a hoarder. A 20-yard dumpster is the most commonly used size for hoarder cleanouts.
Receiving A 20-Yard Roll-Off Dumpster
If you have an asphalt driveway plywood or boards should be laid down to prevent the roll-off dumpster from doing any damage. Make sure low hanging limbs are cut back to allow the dumpster to be delivered. If there are low hanging power lines, consider an alternate location for the dumpster to be delivered.
A Few More Considerations
To be sure you need a 20-yard dumpster you should consider the following: The approximate weight of the trash or debris that will be placed in the roll-off dumpster and if the total volume and weight from the debris will fit.
Be sure to have accurate estimates of the amount of waste that is going in your roll-off dumpster in order to determine the right size. One of the biggest mistakes in construction cleanup is to underestimate the size of the dumpster needed to contain all the debris. You may wind up ordering a second or even third roll-off dumpster to complete the job and sending your project over budget. The old adage measure twice and cut once applies to the size of a dumpster as well.
