What Fits in a 20 Yard Dumpster?
A 20 yard dumpster holds roughly 6 to 8 pickup truck loads, or about 110 to 130 standard 33-gallon trash bags of debris. It’s our most popular roll-off — enough room for a whole-home cleanout or a full kitchen remodel, with a 2–4 ton weight allowance for mixed household debris.
- Full room-by-room whole-home cleanout debris
- Kitchen or bathroom remodel tear-out (cabinets, tile, fixtures)
- Large furniture, sofas, sectionals, and mattresses
- Asphalt shingle tear-offs on roofs up to ~2,000–2,400 sq ft
- Old carpet, flooring, and drywall from multiple rooms
- Deck, fence, or shed removal debris
- Garage, attic, and basement clear-out junk
- Estate and moving-out cleanout waste
Better Suited to Another Size
For heavy, dense debris like pure concrete, brick, or dirt, a low-profile 10 yard is usually the smarter pick — the weight limit is reached long before a 20 yard looks full.
For new construction, major additions, or commercial teardowns, step up to a 30 or 40 yard so you’re not paying for a second haul.
Who Rents a 20 Yard Dumpster in Macon?
It’s the size we recommend for most homeowner projects — the “just right” container that handles a whole house without the oversized 30 yard footprint.
Whole-Home Cleanouts
Full estate, foreclosure, or moving-out clearouts handled in a single container.
Kitchen & Bath Remodels
Cabinets, countertops, tile, tubs, and fixtures from a full remodel tear-out.
Roofing Tear-Offs
Shingle removal on medium-to-large Macon homes, up to roughly 2,000–2,400 sq ft.
Multi-Room Renovations
Flooring, drywall, and debris pulled from several rooms during a bigger update.
The 20 yard holds about 6 to 8 pickup truck loads, while the 30 yard holds 9 to 12 and stands taller for bulkier debris. The 20 yard is ideal for whole-home cleanouts and remodels; choose the 30 yard for new construction, large additions, or when you’re tossing bulky, lightweight material that fills volume fast.
Size, Space & Delivery Requirements
Knowing the footprint ahead of time helps avoid delivery-day surprises in tighter Macon driveways.
| Length | ~22 ft |
| Width | ~8 ft |
| Height | ~4.5 ft |
| Volume | 20 cubic yards |
| Weight limit (included) | 2–4 tons (4,000–8,000 lb) |
| Holds | ~6–8 pickup truck loads · 110–130 bags |
| Ground clearance needed | ~60 ft straight-line for the truck |
| Vertical clearance | ~23–25 ft (overhead wires & branches) |
No permit is required if the dumpster stays entirely on your own driveway or private property. If it needs to sit on a public street or right-of-way, the City of Macon-Bibb County requires a temporary placement permit — and we can help you arrange it.
Protecting Your Driveway
Our drivers place plywood boards under the roll-off wheels on request, so your concrete or asphalt stays scratch-free for the full rental. Just ask when you book.
