How to Choose the Right Dumpster Size
Selecting the correct size isn’t guesswork — our Tacoma team helps you choose based on:
- Debris Type – Concrete, dirt, and roofing require smaller bins with higher weight limits.
- Project Scale – Estimate pickup loads (1 truck ≈ 2 cubic yards).
- Placement Area – Most driveways need 20–22 ft. of clearance for delivery.
We’ll make sure you get the right size the first time — no wasted space, no unnecessary costs.

Weight Limits & Overage Policy
Each dumpster includes a standard weight allowance based on size (1–6 tons).
