A clean lineup of matte-black roll-off dumpsters in 10, 20, 30, and 40-yard sizes staged on a sunlit gravel yard in Shreveport, showing the size progression from compact to commercial-scale containers.

Roll-off dumpster sizes

Wondering which roll-off fits your job? At Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental in Shreveport, we deliver 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-yard sizes; we use a hooklift—and provide a quick swap out—to place your container exactly where you need it.

Compare sizes

Most projects in the Shreveport area fit one of four standard roll-off sizes: the right container depends on the volume of debris; the weight of the load matters for the driveway space.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Shreveport concrete driveway, mid-day sunlight, clean and ready for a garage cleanout.

10-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 15 ft long, 8 ft wide, roughly 3.5 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 3 pickup truck loads, 2,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: a single car length, easy placement on tight lots

The 10-yard roll-off handles small jobs in Shreveport: garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, or attic clear-outs. We set the bin on driveway boards to protect your surface, and the 2,000-pound weight limit suits a typical household load.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for dense C&D debris: the call is simple: dense tonnage from shingles or concrete fills a container before the volume looks full; this works for a single-story roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Shreveport home directly on the asphalt driveway, with framing materials and torn-off shingles staged neatly nearby.

20-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 7 ft wide, roughly 4.5 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 6 pickup truck loads, 4,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: two car lengths, still comfortable on most residential drives

A 20-yard dumpster is a good fit for several projects in the Shreveport area: whole-house decluttering, roof tear-offs, and flooring jobs. The 22-foot length fits on your residential driveway; the 4,000-pound rating handles shingles with framing scrap.

The 20-yard container is the workhorse for mid-size projects: it clears whole-house clutter, handles a mid-size roof tear-off in one haul, and a single swap out covers the whole week of demo and finish work.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Shreveport residential addition jobsite, with framing lumber and drywall scraps loaded through the open swinging rear doors.

30-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 7 ft wide, roughly 6 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 9 pickup truck loads, 6,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: two car lengths plus extra height — confirm overhead clearance

The 30-yard dumpster is built for large projects in Shreveport: it holds framing debris and household waste with ease. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for full cleanouts; the tall walls provide needed volume for your renovation.

The 30-yard roll-off fits big home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong job-site debris across Shreveport.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Shreveport commercial construction lot, with a hooklift delivery truck parked alongside under bright midday sky.

40-yard Dumpster

  • Dimensions: 22 ft long, 8 ft wide, roughly 8 ft tall
  • Capacity: about 12 pickup truck loads, 8,000 lb weight limit
  • Driveway fit: ideal for large construction sites though too tall for most residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Shreveport metro: we drop it with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris on long jobs without needing a second unit to haul.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for new construction and major commercial cleanouts: crews often pair it with a smaller bin for yard debris when clearing happens in parallel with the build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy—these materials hit the 10,000-pound capacity long before the container looks full. This equipment differs from lighter roofing tear-off square sizing projects, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for handling debris in Shreveport. Call (318) 965-6056.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before any material hits the floor: this protects your concrete from damage. If the job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a standard residential roll-off container.

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

Which size fits your project? Picking the right roll-off depends on three factors: the volume of debris, the weight of the load, and where to set the container; a 10-yard or 20-yard works for most in Shreveport; a 30-yard is for remodels; large demolitions need a 40-yard or our jobsite construction debris containers.

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Masonry materials hit the tonnage threshold of a container before filling the volume: C&D debris and household items fill the box first; choose your container size based on the specific limit you expect.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives; however, a 30-yard container requires overhead clearance for the truck mast: a 40-yard is for a commercial lot. Send a photo of your site to our dispatcher.
