Choosing the Right Dumpster Size for Your Project

The size of the dumpster is the primary factor influencing your rental cost. Junk It Roll Offs offers three common sizes, each designed for different project scales. Considering the volume and weight of your construction debris or household junk will help you select the most economical option for your needs in Marshfield. You can explore all our dumpster sizes in detail.

Dumpster Size	Included Weight Limit	Pickup Truck Loads	Price Range	Best For
15-Yard Dumpster	2 tons (4,000 lbs)	4–5 loads	$300–$450	Small garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, small roofing jobs (up to ~1,200 sq ft)
20-Yard Dumpster	3 tons (6,000 lbs)	6–8 loads	$400–$550	Kitchen or bathroom remodels, average roofing jobs, estate cleanouts, deck removals
25-Yard Dumpster	4 tons (8,000 lbs)	9–10 loads	$475–$650	Whole-house cleanouts, large farm cleanups, big construction projects, major roofing tear-offs

To ensure you pick the right construction dumpster for your project, consider these points:

• Estimate your debris volume: Think about how many pickup truck loads your debris would fill. Our size guide helps translate this into cubic yards.
• Factor in heavy materials: If you're dealing with concrete, brick, or roofing shingles, remember these items add significant weight quickly.
• Plan for the unexpected: It’s often better to go slightly larger than risk needing a second dumpster or exceeding weight limits.
• Consider your timeline: Our standard 7-day rental period works for most homeowners, but longer projects can easily extend for $10/day.

A roofing contractor in Springfield, Missouri, recently needed to tear off an old roof from a large residential property. They opted for a dedicated 20-yard dumpster just for the roofing shingles to handle the immense weight, and a separate 15-yard dumpster for other construction debris like wood and underlayment. This approach helped them manage the heavy roofing debris efficiently and avoid weight overage charges, keeping their project on schedule.

Understanding What You Can and Can't Load

Knowing what materials are accepted and prohibited is crucial for a smooth dumpster rental experience. Junk It Roll Offs accepts most common construction debris, household junk, and yard waste. However, certain items are never allowed due to environmental regulations or safety concerns.

Accepted Debris for Your Roll-Off Dumpster

You can typically load a wide range of materials into our roll-off dumpsters for your Marshfield project, including:

• Household furniture and junk
• Construction and renovation debris (wood, drywall, siding, trim)
• Roofing shingles (note: very heavy)
• Concrete and brick (extremely heavy – call us first)
• Appliances without Freon (washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves)
• Carpet and flooring
• Yard waste and brush
• Metal and scrap steel
• Mattresses and box springs

Prohibited Items (Do Not Load These)

For safety and environmental compliance, certain items are strictly prohibited:

• Hazardous waste (paint, chemicals, solvents, pesticides)
• Appliances containing Freon (refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers)
• Tires
• Car batteries and lead-acid batteries
• Asbestos-containing materials
• Medical and biohazardous waste
• Flammable or explosive materials
• Pressurized tanks (propane, oxygen)
• Liquid waste of any kind

If you have questions about specific items, it's always best to call us first.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

To ensure your dumpster rental experience is efficient and cost-effective, avoid these common pitfalls:

• Underestimating weight for heavy debris: Concrete, dirt, and roofing shingles are much heavier than they appear. A 15-yard dumpster filled with shingles can easily exceed its 2-ton limit, leading to $95 per ton overage charges. Always call us if you have significant heavy materials.
• Overfilling the dumpster: For safety and transport legality, debris must not extend above the top edge of the dumpster. Overfilled dumpsters cannot be hauled.
• Loading prohibited items: Placing hazardous waste like liquid paint or Freon appliances can result in additional fees or the inability to pick up the dumpster. Review the list of unaccepted items carefully.
• Not planning for permits: While dumpsters on private property in Marshfield typically don't need a permit, placement on a public street or right-of-way will likely require one from the city. We can advise you on this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions about renting a roll-off dumpster? Here are answers to some common inquiries. You can find more details on our dedicated FAQ page.

How long can I keep a dumpster?

Every standard rental from Junk It Roll Offs includes 7 days for homeowners. If your project in Marshfield requires more time, additional days are just $10 per day. Simply call or text us, and we'll extend your rental period. For contractors, our terms are flexible; please call us to arrange specific pickup schedules.

What happens if I go over the weight limit?

Each dumpster size comes with an included weight limit (e.g., 2 tons for a 15-yard, 3 tons for a 20-yard). If your load exceeds this limit, we charge $95 per ton for the overage. The exact weight is determined at the disposal facility. We will notify you of any overage after pickup. To avoid unexpected charges, especially with heavy materials like concrete or roofing shingles, contact us beforehand for advice.

Can I put shingles in a dumpster?

Yes, roofing shingles are commonly accepted and often make up a significant portion of construction debris. However, shingles are extremely heavy. A full load from an average home can weigh 3–5 tons, which frequently exceeds the weight limit of a 15-yard or even a 20-yard dumpster. Many roofing contractors opt for a dedicated 20-yard dumpster specifically for shingles. We can help you choose the correct size to prevent overage fees.

Can I put a mattress in a dumpster?

Yes, mattresses and box springs are accepted in our roll-off dumpsters. While they take up a fair amount of space, they are not particularly heavy, making them suitable for any of our container sizes during a home cleanout or estate cleanup.

Can I put concrete in a dumpster?

Yes, concrete and brick are accepted, but they are extremely heavy materials. Even a small amount of concrete can quickly push your load over the included weight limit. For example, a 20-yard dumpster filled entirely with concrete would weigh significantly more than its 3-ton limit. If you have a substantial amount of concrete, we urge you to call us first so we can help you estimate the weight and avoid a large $95 per ton overage charge.

Can I put tires in a dumpster?

No, tires are not accepted in our roll-off dumpsters. They require specialized disposal methods. We recommend checking with local tire retailers or auto parts stores in the Marshfield area, as many offer tire recycling for a small fee. Some Missouri counties also organize periodic tire collection events.

Can I put paint in a dumpster?

No, liquid paint and most paints in liquid form are considered hazardous waste and cannot be placed in our dumpsters. Dried, solidified paint (like latex paint that has fully hardened in its can) is generally acceptable. For proper disposal of liquid paint, contact your local household hazardous waste program; Missouri often hosts HHW collection events throughout the year.

Can I put a refrigerator in a dumpster?

No, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers are not accepted unless their Freon (refrigerant) has been professionally removed and certified. These appliances contain refrigerants that require special handling. If you have an appliance that has been de-gassed by a certified technician, it can then be placed in the dumpster. Please call us if you are unsure about an appliance.
