Compare sizes

Most projects in the Winston-Salem metro fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right container depends on the volume of debris; the weight of the load matters for the driveway space.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Winston-Salem 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 is sized for a single sweep of household debris: garage cleanouts, attic clear-outs, and small remodels across Winston-Salem. We set the bin on driveway boards to protect your apron, and the 2,000-pound weight limit handles typical residential loads.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for concentrated 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 Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem area: home decluttering and roof tear-offs; the 22-foot length fits on residential driveways with a 4,000-pound rating for your shingles and framing scrap.

The 20-Yard Container handles most mid-size jobs in one trip. It’s sized for whole-house decluttering or roof tear-offs; on a bigger remodel, a single swap-out keeps crews moving.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem home remodels: it handles large volumes of framing debris with ease. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options; the taller walls provide the space you need for your project.

The 30-yard roll-off hauls heavy loads fast for Winston-Salem home additions and full-kitchen or full-bath remodels.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Winston-Salem 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: forty-yard bin for large commercial sites but too tall for residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition across the Winston-Salem metro: we drop each unit with a hooklift truck—and the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris without the need for a second haul.

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

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Heavy concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy: these materials hit the 10,000-pound limit long before the container looks full, unlike typical roofing tear-off square sizing. We follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards in Winston-Salem for your site—ensuring proper disposal on every job.

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? Selecting the right container depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight, and where the roll-off sits in Winston-Salem; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most; a 30-yard is for remodels; only large demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Dense C&D debris hits the Tonnage limit of a container quickly: masonry and brick fill the box by weight before volume; household junk requires more space, so size for the limit you reach first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits most residential drives. Placement depends on truck clearance; a 30-yard container requires overhead room, while a 40-yard bin needs a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher to confirm.
