Compare sizes

Most projects in Arlington Heights fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right container depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load; and the room on the driveway.

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 small projects in Arlington Heights. We place it on Driveway Boards with a 2,000-pound limit for boxes, drywall, or other household debris. Call for same-day delivery — (224) 263-1344.

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 container before the volume looks full. Use this for a roof tear-off; whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads in a bin.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Arlington Heights 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 Arlington Heights area: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and large flooring jobs. Its 22-foot length fits on residential driveways; the 4,000-pound rating handles shingles and framing scrap.

The 20-yard container carries most mid-size jobs in one trip: whole-house clean-outs, medium roof tear-offs, and a week’s remodel debris. Set it once; a single swap out covers week-two demo and finish work on site.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Arlington Heights 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 handles large estate cleanouts and full-house remodels in Arlington Heights: the tall walls provide needed volume for framing scrap. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for your project; it holds six thousand pounds.

The 30-yard roll-off holds everything from Arlington Heights home additions to full-kitchen remodels and weeklong job sites.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Arlington Heights 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 large bin is for commercial sites and exceeds residential driveway height clearance

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Arlington Heights area: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating allows you to haul bulky mixed debris to cover your full job.

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

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Heavy materials—like concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil—require our reinforced lowboy container for your job in Arlington Heights: these units are rated for 10,000 pounds. This equipment differs from standard roofing tear-off square sizing, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for all local site debris.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before a single load of debris hits the pavement: this protects your driveway from damage. 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? Choosing the right container in Arlington Heights 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; and 40-yard or jobsite construction debris containers suit demolitions.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Masonry and C&D debris reach the tonnage limit of a container quickly: heavy materials fill the box before the volume is met; conversely, light household junk fills the space before the weight matters.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives: a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard is for a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher in Arlington Heights with your site.
