A standard couch will likely fit in a 10-yard dumpster easily. You may be able to fit a large or oversized couch in a dumpster of this size, but you’ll probably have to break it down as much as possible first. If you’re concerned your couch is too big, ask a local dumpster rental company for advice on which size dumpster you need.

An empty 20-foot shipping container weighs between 3,970 and 4,850 pounds. Once you’ve added your belongings, that weight will increase significantly.

The amount a 6-by-10-foot dump trailer can hold varies depending on the model. Generally, however, they can hold at least 4 cubic yards of waste with a load capacity of at least 4,000 lbs. This is around 1/4 to 1/2 the amount a standard junk removal truck can hold. It’s also considerably less than the most common dumpster size of 20 cubic yards.

While the cost to hire a junk removal service varies, the cheapest option would be to dispose of junk on your neighborhood garbage collection day. That being said, you can only dispose of so much on those days and you’d need to ensure the junk is being safely disposed of by referring to community guidelines for what is acceptable on garbage collection day.
