Our Most Popular Size for Major Home Renovations, Roofing, and Big Cleanouts.
How Much Can a 20-Yard Dumpster Hold?
The 20-yard dumpster is the ultimate multi-tasker. It holds 20 cubic yards of debris, which equals roughly 110 to 130 standard 33-gallon trash bags or about six standard pickup truck loads. It’s the perfect size for projects that require a lot of volume but don't quite need commercial-level heavy equipment.
The 20-yard is the industry-standard size for roofing tear-offs across Westchester — it'swhat our
contractor and commercial clients rely on for shingle removal, underlayment disposal, and exterior remodeling debris. For residential use, it handles whole-house estate cleanouts, full kitchen demolitions, and large deck removals without breaking a sweat.
Important Details & Specs:
- Dimensions: Approximately 22 feet long x 7.5 feet wide x 4.5 feet high.
- Best Uses: Complete kitchen renovations, roofing tear-offs, whole-house estate cleanouts, multi-room flooring removal, and large landscaping or storm-prep projects.
- Easy Loading: Features a swinging rear door so you can safely load in heavy items like old appliances, dense furniture, or wheelbarrows full of debris, saving your back from heavy lifting!
- Driveway Footprint: Because it is 22 feet long, it will take up the length of a standard driveway. Make sure the vehicles are cleared out before we arrive!
Pro Tip: If you are using this for a roofing tear-off or heavy concrete/dirt removal, be mindful of weight limits! Heavy materials should typically only fill the dumpster halfway to ensure our trucks can safely haul it away on New Rochelle roads.
What Fits in a 20-Yard Dumpster?
Standing at around 4.5 feet tall and 22 feet long, it's low enough to safely toss debris over the side, but it also features a convenient swinging rear door. This allows you to walk heavy furniture or wheelbarrows right into the belly of the bin, saving your back from heavy lifting!
Working on a larger commercial project — a multi-family building, office cleanout, or major structural demolition? You may need to step up to our 30 and 40-yard dumpsters, which are built for volume-heavy commercial and construction debris. For smaller residential jobs, our 15-yard dumpster is a great cost-effective alternative.
Perfect For These New RochelleProjects:
- Major Kitchen & Bath Renovations: Plenty of room for gutted drywall, large custom cabinets, heavy countertops, and old appliances.
- Roofing Tear-Offs: The industry standard for roofing jobs. It easily holds the shingles, nails, and underlayment from a standard-sized New Rochelle home.
- Whole-House & Estate Cleanouts: Moving out or downsizing? This bin swallows massive amounts of bulky furniture, broken garage tools, mattresses, and years of attic clutter.
- Large Deck & Fence Removals: Easily accommodates the long, splintered wood planks and hardware from tearing down a backyard deck or a storm-damaged privacy fence.
- Heavy Debris & Dirt: Excellent for concrete, brick, or dirt removal. (Note: Because of local New York road safety limits, heavy materials like concrete can only fill the bin halfway. Ask our experts for guidance!)
New Rochelle Regulations & Disposal Rules
We aren't a faceless national broker; we are your local New Rochelle neighbors. Renting a dumpster in Westchester County requires strict adherence to local environmental and landfill regulations.
What You CAN Toss: Construction debris, yard waste (branches, leaves), furniture, boxes, and household junk are all perfectly fine.
What You CANNOT Toss: New York regulations aggressively protect groundwater and the local environment. Absolutely no liquid waste is allowed. This includes wet paint, stains, varnishes, solvents, motor oils, and adhesive liquids. Appliances containing Freon are also strictly prohibited.
Concrete & Heavy Loads: Clean concrete, brick, and pavers are accepted, but because they get heavy fast, they typically require a dedicated concrete load to stay within weight limits. Let us know if you have heavy materials!
Permit Requirements: If placed on your private driveway, a permit is usually not required. However, if the dumpster must be placed on a public street or block a right-of-way, you may need a permit from the City of New Rochelle.
