30 Yard Dumpster Rental

The 30 yard dumpster is the largest roll-off we offer, built for projects that overwhelm every other size. At a flat $475 — delivery, pickup, disposal, 10 days, and a 5-ton allowance all included — it's how Orlando homeowners and contractors clear a whole house or finish a major renovation in one container.

At roughly 22 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, and 6 feet tall, the 30 yard holds about 10 pickup-truck loads of debris. The tall walls make it visible from the street — part of why this size is reserved for jobs that actually need it.

It's designed for full house cleanouts, hoarder situations, multi-room remodels, large landscaping overhauls, and mid-size construction. What it is not designed for is heavy debris. Concrete, dirt, roofing tear-off, and tile belong in a 10 or 15 yard — the weight section below explains why.

Every 30 yard ships with driveway-safe delivery (boards under the rails). Call for pickup anytime within 10 days.

A 30 yard holds about 10 pickup-truck loads of debris. A single-car garage stuffed floor to ceiling fits in 3-4 loads, so a 30 yard covers two to three times that.

Dimensions:

• Length: ~22 feet
• Width: ~7.5 feet
• Height: ~6 feet (tall walls)
• Volume: 30 cubic yards
• Weight included: 5 tons (10,000 lbs)

Real-world capacity examples:

• Full kitchen demo plus full bath demo plus carpet from three bedrooms — all in one container
• Contents of a 3-4 bedroom home estate cleanout, including furniture and packed garage
• Mid-size new-construction debris — framing, drywall, siding cutoffs, packaging, trim
• Multi-room renovation with parallel trades
• Large landscaping overhaul including brush and sod

The 6-foot walls let you stack bulky items — couches, dressers, appliances — vertically. Heavier on bottom, lighter on top, level with the top rail.

The 30 yard is overkill for an average remodel. It earns its slot on these job types:

Full house cleanout

A 3-5 bedroom home with attached garage and packed attic almost always fits in a single 30 yard. Rooms add 1-2 yards each, garages 3-6, attics 2-4.

Hoarder cleanout

Properties with decades of accumulation routinely exceed estimates. The 30 yard's buffer prevents the mid-project realization that you ordered the wrong size.

Multi-room renovation

A project covering kitchen, two baths, and flooring across the house stacks debris fast. A 30 yard keeps one container on site instead of juggling smaller dumpsters between phases.

Mid-size construction project

New-build framing scrap, drywall, packaging, and trim offcuts typically fill a 30 yard across rough-in and finish — often cheaper than multiple 20 yard swaps.

Large landscaping or tree removal

Big yard overhauls — brush, sod, medium trees — generate volume without extreme weight. Skip the 30 yard if you're also hauling dirt or full root balls (those need a heavy-load container).

Estate cleanout

Sorting a lifetime of belongings rarely matches the original estimate. The buffer gives the family room to keep what they want without a rushed second pass.

The most important sizing decision on the page: a 30 yard is not the right container for heavy debris.

The 30 yard includes a 5-ton (10,000 lb) weight allowance — the most of any size we offer. But heavy materials hit the weight cap long before filling the volume. Even if the container could hold more, the truck has a legal weight limit on Florida roads. Once exceeded, the truck cannot haul it — and you'll be asked to remove material before pickup.

Why heavy debris doesn't belong here:

• Concrete — ~4,000 lbs per cubic yard. A 30 yard half-full is 60,000 lbs, six times the allowance
• Dirt and clean fill — ~2,200-3,000 lbs per yard. A few yards blows past tonnage
• Roofing tear-off — 2-3 lbs per sq ft. A 2,500 sq ft roof produces 2.5-4 tons by itself
• Brick, block, tile — dense by volume, deceptive by appearance

What to do instead: heavy debris belongs in a 10 or 15 yard. Those sizes have shorter walls and tonnage tuned to stay inside the legal haul weight. For purely concrete, roofing, or dirt, a 10 yard is almost always right.

Mixed loads: a renovation with some concrete (small slab, a few tile bags) can ride in the 30 yard alongside light debris as long as the heavy portion stays small. Call us if unsure.

Overage: $50 per ton above 5 tons. Better to route heavy debris to the right size up front.

Picking the right size is the single biggest decision in a dumpster rental. Get it right and you'll fit everything in one bin with no overage fees. Get it wrong and you're either paying for a second rental or paying overage on the first. Here's how our four flat-rate sizes compare side by side, plus a project-to-size lookup and the one sizing rule almost every other rental company gets wrong.

Size Comparison Table

All prices include delivery, pickup, disposal, 10 days of rental, and the listed weight allowance. Overages: $50/ton and $25/day past day 10. No fuel surcharges, environmental fees, or hidden charges.

Pick by Project Type

If your project matches one of these examples, you have your size:

• Single bathroom remodel → 10 yard
• Roofing tear-off (single layer, average home) → 10 yard
• Single-car garage cleanout → 10 yard
• Concrete pad, driveway, or sidewalk removal → 10 yard (weight, not volume, will fill it)
• Kitchen remodel (cabinets + countertops + flooring) → 15 yard
• Two-bathroom remodel → 15 yard
• Two-car garage cleanout → 15 yard
• Mid-size landscaping or yard project → 15 yard
• Multi-room flooring tear-out → 20 yard
• Kitchen + bathroom combo remodel → 20 yard
• Partial home renovation (~1,500 sq ft) → 20 yard
• Whole-house cleanout or estate cleanout → 30 yard
• Hoarder cleanout → 30 yard
• Large construction project or major addition → 30 yard

Heavy Materials Rule — Different From Everything Else

For concrete, dirt, asphalt, tile, brick, or heavy roofing: always pick a 10 or 15 yard, regardless of how big your project is. Roll-off trucks have strict legal axle weight limits — typically about 22,000 lbs per axle group. A 30-yard dumpster filled with concrete would exceed legal road weight by 8,000+ pounds. The driver physically couldn't pick it up. You'd end up paying for a second container to transfer half the load.

The 10 and 15 yard sizes are matched to the truck's weight capacity, so a full one still gets hauled in a single trip. Most rental companies don't explain this and let customers over-rent. We tell you up front: heavy debris goes in 10 or 15 yard, full stop.

When to Size Up — and When Not To

Size up when you have bulky but lightweight debris (furniture, drywall, cardboard, yard waste, household goods), when you're not sure what's hiding in the attic or garage, or when your project scope is uncertain. One 20 yard at $425 is cheaper than two 10 yards at $650 — and avoids the second delivery wait.

Don't size up when you're working with heavy materials (see the rule above), or when your driveway has tight clearance. A 30 yard needs roughly 22 feet of length to set down, plus about 10 feet of vertical clearance for the truck arm to operate.

Still Not Sure Which Size?

If your project doesn't line up with anything above, send us a quick description of what you're tossing and we'll recommend a size and quote it on the spot. Same-day delivery is available across Orlando and Central Florida. If we deliver and the size turns out wrong, we'll swap it — most rental companies won't.

The 30 yard is a flat $475 — delivery, pickup, disposal, 10 days, and a 5-ton allowance. No fuel surcharges, no environmental fees, no weekend premiums.

Same-day delivery

Booked by 10 AM, same-day is available most days. Booked by 1 PM, possible if a route fits. After 2 PM, next-day is realistic. The 30 yard needs more dispatcher coordination — call early.

10-day rental period

10 days included as standard. The clock starts at delivery. Call when you're ready for pickup anytime within the 10 days. Most full-house cleanouts finish inside the window even with weather delays.

Overage fees

• Weight: $50 per ton above the 5-ton allowance — best avoided by keeping heavy debris out
• Daily extension: $25 per day past day 10, billed only if you keep it longer

Driveway and placement

• Length: 22 feet of clear space plus 10-15 feet of truck approach room
• Width: at least 10 feet
• Overhead: the container is 6 feet tall but the truck arm reaches higher. Avoid branches, power lines, or eaves under 18 feet
• Surface: 2x10 boards under the contact rails — included
