20 yard dumpster dimensions are typically 20 feet long x 8 feet wide x 3.5 feet tall. Every 20 cubic yard dumpster rental will have the same volume of 20 cubic yards, which is why it's called a 20 yard dumpster.
A 20 yard roll off dumpster can hold 20 cubic yards of material. This size can fit about 8 pickup truck loads of waste. These dumpsters can also fit larger items like bulky furniture. 20-yard roll-off dumpsters usually hold 3 tons, or 6,000 pounds, of waste. Because of its capacity, this is one of the most popular dumpster sizes rented.
The difference between a 20 yard dumpster and a 30 yard dumpster is just the dimensions. The 20 yard dumpster size measures approximately 22 feet x 7.5 feet x 4.5 feet and can handle 4,000 to 6,000 pounds. The 30 yard dumpster size measures 22 feet x 7.5 feet x 6 feet and can hold up to 7,000 to 10,000 pounds
Both dumpsters are used for similar purposes, such as large cleanouts, home renovations, and even smaller construction and demolition projects.

We’ll walk you through the process of our dumpster rental to save you time. There are a few things you’ll need to know to ensure your dumpster rental and associated project goes smoothly:
When choosing a location for your 20 yard dumpster rental:
Be sure to choose an area that is clear of pedestrians, vehicle traffic, and walkways if you can help it. This will ease your project by not having to avoid and potentially endanger anyone during the disposal process while also saving you time.
Make sure there is substantial space available for the 20 yard dumpster drop-off that is free of obstructions such as wires and low-hanging branches.
Prepping for dumpster pickup:
When your project is finished and the time comes for the dumpster to be picked up, ensure that the top of the dumpster is evened out such as making sure there are no objects sticking out of the container.
Be sure to not exceed the maximum weight limit allowed.
Dumpster service day:
On the day of your dumpster servicing and pick up, be sure to clear out the way for your 20 yard dumpster pickup such as moving parked cars.
Make sure the driver has access to your location by unlocking gates and providing access to your location and we’ll take care of the rest.
