One of the most common questions we hear is, “What size dumpster do I need?” The answer depends on your project, but we’re here to help you choose. We offer five dumpster sizes to fit every type of job; from small home cleanouts to large-scale construction work.
10 Yard Dumpster Rental
Our 10 yard dumpster is perfect for small projects like garage cleanouts, minor landscaping work, or getting rid of old furniture and household junk. It’s compact enough to fit in tight driveways but large enough to handle a significant amount of debris. Think of it as the size of about three pickup truck loads.
15 Yard Dumpster Rental
Step up to a 15 yard dumpster for basement or attic cleanouts, small bathroom or kitchen renovations, or carpet and flooring removal projects. This size works well for medium-scale residential projects where you need more capacity than a 10 yard but don’t quite need our most popular size.
20 Yard Dumpster Rental
The 20 yard dumpster is our most popular option; and for good reason. It’s the ideal choice for roof replacements, deck removals, medium-sized renovations, and estate cleanouts. Contractors love this size because it handles most residential and light commercial jobs without taking up too much space on the property. If you’re unsure which size to choose, the 20 yard is often the sweet spot.
30 Yard Dumpster Rental
For larger remodeling projects, whole-house cleanouts, new construction work, or commercial property cleanouts, our 30 yard dumpster gives you the room you need. It can handle significant amounts of construction debris, old furniture, and renovation waste. Property managers and contractors working on multi-room projects frequently choose this size.
40 Yard Dumpster Rental
Our largest option, the 40 yard dumpster, is built for major demolition projects, large construction sites, and complete property cleanouts. When you’re tearing down a structure, replacing an entire commercial roof, or handling a foreclosure cleanout with a home full of belongings, this is the dumpster that gets the job done.
Not sure what size you need? We’ll help you choose the perfect dumpster for your project based on what you’re removing and how much space you’re working with. Our pricing is transparent and all-inclusive; what we quote is what you pay, with no surprise fees when we pick up your dumpster.
We know that some projects don’t give you advance notice. An unexpected pipe burst, a last-minute estate cleanout, or a contractor who needs a dumpster on-site immediately; these things happen, and we’re ready to respond.
If you call us before noon on most days, we can often deliver your dumpster the same day. We also offer next-day delivery throughout Fort Walton Beach and the surrounding areas in Okaloosa County, and we’re available on weekends when you need us.
Our emergency dumpster rental service has helped countless customers handle urgent situations without the stress of scrambling to find waste removal solutions.

How do I select the correct dumpster size for my project?
Start by estimating the volume of debris you'll generate. As a rule of thumb, a 10-yard dumpster holds about 3-4 pickup truck loads, while a 20-yard holds 7-8 loads. If you're between sizes, it's often better to go up; overfilling can result in additional charges. Our team is happy to help you choose based on your specific project. We've worked with thousands of customers across Fort Walton Beach and can recommend the perfect size based on similar jobs we've handled. With our transparent pricing, you'll know exactly what you're paying upfront.
|
|
What happens if I overload my dumpster or exceed the weight limit?
Each dumpster comes with an included tonnage allowance (listed in the table above). If you exceed this weight, additional charges apply per ton over the limit. To avoid overloading, never fill debris past the top rim of the dumpster; this is called the "fill line." Materials like concrete, dirt, and roofing shingles are especially heavy, so consider a lowboy or discuss weight limits with us when booking. We want you to stay within budget, so we'll always give you honest guidance about what your dumpster can handle.
|
|
What items are prohibited? Can I dispose of hazardous waste?
For safety and environmental reasons, we cannot accept hazardous materials including paint, chemicals, asbestos, medical waste, batteries, tires, propane tanks, or electronics containing mercury. Most household junk, construction debris, furniture, appliances, yard waste, and general renovation materials are perfectly fine. If you're unsure about a specific item, just ask; we're here to help. Our eco-friendly disposal practices mean we recycle and responsibly dispose of acceptable materials to minimize landfill impact.
|
|
Do I need a permit to place a dumpster on my property?
If you're placing the dumpster on your private property (driveway, yard, parking lot), you typically don't need a permit. However, if the dumpster needs to go on a public street or right-of-way, the city of Fort Walton Beach or Okaloosa County may require a permit. We can guide you through the permit process and advise on placement options that work for your property. Our experience with local regulations means we can answer your questions quickly and accurately.
|
|
Where should I place my dumpster to avoid problems?
Choose a flat, stable surface like a driveway or parking area with enough clearance for our delivery truck (typically 60 feet of straight-line access and 23 feet of vertical clearance). Avoid placing dumpsters on soft ground, septic systems, or underground utilities. We can place plywood boards under the dumpster to protect your driveway from potential damage. Let us know about any concerns during booking; our drivers are skilled at working around landscaping, tight spaces, and other obstacles to protect your property.
|
|
What are the rental terms and how long can I keep the dumpster?
Our standard rental periods range from 7 to 14 days depending on the dumpster size and your project needs. Need more time? We offer flexible scheduling with weekly and monthly rental options. If your project timeline changes, just give us a call and we'll work with you to extend your rental period. There's no penalty for needing extra time; we understand that projects don't always go according to plan. Everything is clearly outlined in your rental agreement with no confusing fine print.
|
|
How quickly can you deliver, and how does pickup work?
We offer same-day delivery throughout Fort Walton Beach and Okaloosa County when you call before noon (subject to availability). Next-day delivery is almost always available, and we're ready to serve you seven days a week. When you're finished with the dumpster, simply call us and we'll schedule pickup within 24-48 hours. Our fast and reliable delivery means your project never has to wait. Pickup is included in your rental price; just let us know when you're ready and we'll handle the rest.
|
|
How do I prevent damage to my driveway or property?
We take great care during delivery and pickup to minimize any impact on your property. For extra protection, we can place plywood boards beneath the dumpster to distribute weight and prevent cracking or indentation on asphalt or concrete. Make sure the placement area is clear of vehicles, toys, and other obstacles. Our experienced drivers know how to navigate residential neighborhoods and tight spaces safely. If you have specific concerns about your property, discuss them with us when booking and we'll take appropriate precautions.
