When used properly according to the rental safety guidelines, a dumpster is safe to use. To avoid injury, use safety precautions like work gloves and sturdy shoes, load the dumpster as recommended by the rental company with heavier items going in first, don’t overload the dumpster, and don’t put hazardous or prohibited material inside the dumpster.

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.

It’s called a 20-yard dumpster because the volume of space in the dumpster can hold 20 cubic yards of material. A cubic yard is 3-feet long, 3-feet wide, 3-feet tall cube, as 3 feet is equal to 1 yard. This volume can hold about 110 to 130 33-gallon trash bags.

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.

Most furniture can be thrown in a dumpster, but some areas may have regulations prohibiting you from disposing of mattresses and upholstered furniture in a dumpster.
