How big is a 10 yard dumpster?

A 10 yard dumpster is a waste container that measures approximately 11 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 3.5 feet tall.  It can hold up to 10 cubic yards of trash, which is equivalent to around 4 pickup truck loads.  Note: in some areas this size can be longer - 16 or so feet long, but shorter like 2.5 to 3 feet.

Keep in mind that smaller dumpsters do not mean significantly smaller costs.  Usually the price difference is very small to move up in size for renting a roll off dumpster.  A 10 yard can be great if you don't have a lot of old junk, but they fill up faster than most people think.  Please consider this when thinking about renting a 10 yarder.

  • A few small appliances (washer, dryer, microwave)
  • Yard waste such as branches, leaves, and shrubs
