How to Choose the Right Dumpster Size
Choosing the right dumpster is simple when you know what to look for. We help you consider:
- The type of debris, since heavy materials like concrete or shingles need smaller, stronger bins
- The project scope, based on how many pickup truck loads you expect
- The placement area, since most dumpsters need about 20 to 22 feet of space
Our Joliet team will help you get the right size the first time so you avoid extra hauls or wasted money.
Call (815) 860-4753 to get help choosing the right size.

For heavy debris like dirt, concrete, or brick, our team will recommend smaller bins to stay within safe hauling limits.
