Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job in Shreveport? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental, we provide 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; we use a hooklift for precise placement—and we offer a simple swap out for your container when it is full.

Compare sizes

Most projects in the Shreveport area fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right container choice depends on the volume of debris, the load weight; and the room available for placement.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Shreveport 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 Container fits garage cleanouts and single-room remodels in Shreveport. We place it on driveway boards to protect your surface, with a 2,000-pound limit for household junk or drywall. Compact size for tight spaces.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for dense C&D debris: the call is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or concrete fills a 10-yard container before the volume looks full; this works for a single-story roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads.

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

The 20-Yard Container clears an entire house or a full roof tear-off without multiple trips. One swap-out keeps demo and finish crews supplied for a full week on-site.

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

The 30-yard dumpster handles large home additions in Shreveport: it provides space for heavy c&d debris. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for full cleanouts; the tall walls ensure your crew has enough volume.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen and full-bath remodels, and weeklong job sites right here in Shreveport.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Shreveport 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: this 40-yard bin is for large commercial sites and won't fit residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Shreveport area: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris to keep the site clean on long jobs.

The 40-yard roll-off handles large projects: crews often pair the container with a smaller yard-debris bin when clearing the site for new construction in the city of Shreveport, Louisiana.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Heavy materials like concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy—rated for 10,000 pounds—rather than a standard roll-off. This equipment differs from roofing tear-off square sizing projects in Shreveport. Following EPA construction and demolition material management standards ensures your site stays compliant during the cleanup process.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the ground: this protects your pavement from damage. If the 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? Picking a container in Shreveport depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and where you place the roll-off; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard fits remodels; only demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy loads like concrete fill a container with the dense tonnage of masonry before the box is full; light C&D debris fills volume first: always pick your size for the limit you reach fastest.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

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