Choosing a Dumpster Size

Estimating the right dumpster size can save you time and money. Here’s how to calculate your needs:

  • 1. Measure the Area: Determine the space your waste will occupy by measuring its length, width, and height in feet.
  • 2. Calculate Volume: Multiply these dimensions to get the total cubic feet of waste.
  • 3. Convert to Cubic Yards: Divide the total cubic feet by 27 to find the volume in cubic yards.

Can you deliver at a specific time of day, like morning or evening?

Can you deliver a dumpster to a roadway, alleyway, or neighborhood street?

For roll off dumpster rentals in Des Moines, placing dumpsters on public roads, alleyways, or neighborhood streets may require a permit from the city. You can obtain this permit from the Des Moines clerk’s office, which will need information about the dumpster’s location and size.

Can you place the dumpster in my yard?

Yes, we can place dumpsters in your yard in Des Moines, Iowa, provided the ground is hard and dry to support the weight.

Can we fill the dumpster higher than the sides?

Do not overfill dumpsters. Overfilling can cause spillage when the truck lifts the dumpster at a steep angle. Our tarp system must cover the load securely.

Do you accept concrete or dirt?

For materials like concrete, dirt, rock, sand, asphalt, or gravel, we provide smaller dumpster sizes, typically no larger than 20 yards, due to weight restrictions. Do not mix these materials with other trash. Please visit Wikipedia.org to learn more.

Is there a weight limit for dumpster rentals?
