But what size container is right for your project? Let’s take a look at a couple of different container sizes and what they’re good for.

12 cubic yard roll off container

  • A 12 cubic yard container holds just a bit less than four full size pickup beds full.
  • 12 cubic yards is enough space for the debris from a smaller renovation project, like a bathroom or small kitchen
  • A 12 yard container is great for yard clean outs for a small or medium sized yard
  • 12 cubic yards is enough space to accommodate a deck removal, as long as your deck is around 200 square feet or less
  • A 12 cubic yard container has room for around 16 square of shingles, or around 1600 square feet. For reference, asphalt and composite shingles typically come in bundles that cover around a third of a square.
  • 12 cubic yards is enough space for a basement clean out, or a single car garage

15 cubic yard roll off container

  • A 15 cubic yard container holds around as much as 5 full size pick up beds. That’s a lot of driving time saved!
  • 15 cubic yards is enough for a larger renovation project, like replacing flooring in a medium-large house
  • A 15 yard container can handle a large deck removal of ~250 to ~350 square feet
  • 15 cubic yards is enough for a major yard clean out or debris removal on a larger property
