Most projects in the Santa Fe 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 Santa Fe 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 bin handles small cleanouts across Santa Fe: a garage sweep, an attic clear-out, or a single-room remodel. We set the bin on driveway boards to protect your surface, and the 2,000-pound weight limit covers most household debris loads.

A 10-yard roll-off is ideal for dense C&D debris: the call is simple: heavy tonnage from shingles or concrete fills a small container before the volume looks full; use this for a roof tear-off, whereas yard debris container choices handle lighter loads in Santa Fe.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Santa Fe 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 Santa Fe metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size roof tear-offs, and framing scrap. The 22-foot length fits on most residential drives; the 4,000-pound rating handles your mixed debris with ease.

The 20-yard container is the reliable choice for mid-size projects: it hauls a whole-house declutter or a mid-size roof tear-off in one load, and with a single swap out you keep a week-long demo and finish work on schedule.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Santa Fe 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

A 30-yard dumpster handles large home additions or estate cleanouts in Santa Fe: the tall sides provide volume for framing crews. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for multi-week projects; it holds heavy mixed debris.

The 30-yard roll-off handles home additions, full-kitchen or full-bath remodels, and weeklong Santa Fe job output.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Santa Fe 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: large bin for commercial sites, generally too tall for standard residential driveways.

The 40-yard container handles large demolition and new construction projects across Santa Fe: we drop this unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris to keep the site clear on long jobs.

The 40-yard roll-off is built for large construction projects: our crews often pair it with a smaller yard-debris bin when the site clearing runs in parallel with the main build.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Dense materials—concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil—require a reinforced lowboy because these items hit the maximum capacity long before a standard roll-off looks full. This equipment differs from roofing tear-off square sizing, and we follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards throughout Santa Fe. Call (505) 372-0126.

We always set the lowboy on driveway boards before a single load of debris hits the surface: this prevents cracking on your property. If a job mixes demolition concrete with a home tear-out — we pair the lowboy with a residential container.

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

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

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Heavy C&D debris like concrete fills the container by weight; light trash fills the box by volume: watch your tonnage before you load, as you should choose the size for the limit hit first.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

A 10-yard or 20-yard dumpster fits on most residential drives: a 30-yard container needs overhead clearance for the truck mast; a 40-yard bin belongs in a commercial lot. Send a photo to our dispatcher for your placement.
