There is a distinction between weight limit and weight capacity. As for capacity, all dumpsters are capable of carrying well over 15 tons of weight. However, most local regulations prohibit hauling dumpsters that heavy. Most dumpster companies that use flat rate pricing (like Trash Daddy) will have a weight limit associated with each size. The weight limit refers to how much weight is included in the flat rate price, not how much weight the dumpster can hold. See our
sizes page for common weight limits for each size.
