Most projects in Norfolk fit one of four roll-off sizes: the choice depends on the volume of debris, the weight of the load; the container must also fit on the driveway.

A matte-black 10-yard roll-off dumpster sitting directly on a residential Norfolk 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 projects in Norfolk: 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 works for most household debris loads.

A 10-yard roll-off is the right call for small, heavy jobs: dense tonnage from shingles or C&D debris 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 in a bin.

A matte-black 20-yard roll-off dumpster placed alongside a mid-renovation Norfolk 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 Norfolk metro: whole-house decluttering, mid-size 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 decluttering and a roof tear-off in one haul, and a single swap out covers week-two demo and finish work.

A matte-black 30-yard roll-off dumpster positioned at a Norfolk 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 provides volume for home additions in Norfolk: taller sides help framing crews manage heavy debris. This container pairs well with our residential driveway dumpster rental options for full cleanouts; it handles large volumes of mixed waste easily.

The 30-yard roll-off handles Norfolk home additions, full-kitchen remodels, and weeklong job sites with ease.

A matte-black 40-yard roll-off dumpster staged on a large Norfolk 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: best for large commercial sites but generally too tall for residential driveways

The 40-yard container handles new construction and large demolition in the Norfolk area: we drop the unit with a hooklift truck—the 8,000-pound rating covers your bulky mixed debris to haul everything away in a single trip.

The 40-yard roll-off serves large construction and commercial projects: crews often pair it with a smaller bin when site clearing runs in parallel with building work on the property in Norfolk.

Reinforced Concrete and Heavy-debris Containers

Heavy concrete, brick, asphalt, and packed soil require a reinforced lowboy: these materials bottom out a standard roll-off long before it looks full. This lowboy handles up to 10,000 pounds—a massive weight density—unlike lighter roofing tear-off square sizing projects in Norfolk. Follow EPA construction and demolition material management standards for your site.

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

Choosing the Right Roll-off Size for Your Project

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

Estimate by debris type, not just volume

Masonry materials reach the Tonnage maximum before filling the container: heavy items like concrete or C&D debris occupy less space; lighter household contents fill the box long before the weight becomes the issue.

Check your driveway and overhead clearance

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