"Five Brothers Junk Removal exceeded expectations. I posted on Angie’s List and had a callback within 90 seconds — they came out same day for an estimate, and their bid matched my budget exactly. We scheduled the work for day three, and their two-man crew arrived and worked diligently for one solid hour, completing the entire project: old play structures, two oversized 100+ lb sandboxes, tarps, Power Wheels, bikes, yard waste, and debris — all cleared, leaving the yard spotless. The estimate matched the final invoice exactly, and they delivered everything promised, on schedule. Efficient, hardworking, and completely reliable. THE BEST! I’ll be recommending them on every neighborhood app I use. As a Chevy Chase/Bethesda homeowner, I refer Five Brothers with complete confidence. Sara"

Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

The best way to determine the right dumpster size for your project is to speak with a reputable dumpster rental company. Let them know what kind of job you're doing and the types of materials you'll be disposing of. These professionals have experience fitting heavy and bulky items into their dumpsters and can guide you on how to dispose of everything safely and legally. A representative should be able to recommend the best dumpster for your needs. Often, the company will advise you to choose a slightly larger size to help you avoid potential overage charges.

The size of the dumpster will determine how many squares of shingles can fit in a dumpster. You can place between 4 to 20 squares of shingles in most standard containers.

The smallest dumpsters typically available for rent are 2 cubic yards. These are ideal for small cleanup jobs, minor home remodeling projects, or decluttering a garage. A 2-cubic-yard dumpster can generally hold around 400 pounds and often measures about 6 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet high. The cost to rent one typically ranges from $75 to $200 per week.

For even smaller jobs, or as an alternative, you can consider a dumpster bag. These come in various sizes (often 2 to 5 cubic yards) and can cost between $100 and $180 per week. Other small dumpster types include commercial dumpsters (starting at 2 yards) and small roll-off dumpsters (which usually start at 10 yards).

The average dumpster rental duration is between five and 14 days, though some companies offer standard periods of five to seven days. You can typically rent a dumpster for as long as you need, from a few days to several months, making it suitable for various project sizes. Rental companies may charge by the day, week, or month. If you need to extend your rental for a large-scale project, be aware that longer periods usually incur higher fees. It's best to check with your local dumpster rental company to understand their specific options, pricing structures, and costs for extending your contract.

Most people who rent a dumpster choose a 20-yard dumpster, which should be large enough for the following:

  • Bathroom remodels

  • Home cleanouts

  • Roof replacement

  • Large-scale landscaping projects

A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for the following projects:

  • Small bathroom remodel

  • Patio or deck demolition

  • Small landscaping projects

You might need a 30- or 40-yard dumpster for the following projects:

  • Large construction projects

  • Large demolition projects

  • Whole home renovations

You can ask your local dumpster rental company what size dumpster you need based on the specific project you have lined up.
