What dumpster size works for yard cleanup?
A 10-yard dumpster may fit a small brush cleanup. A 15-yard dumpster provides more room for branches and leaves, and a 20-yard dumpster can suit larger property cleanups. Soil, rock, and stumps change the recommendation because they are dense or difficult to process.
Common yard debris
- Branches and brush
- Leaves
- Non-invasive landscaping debris
- Small amounts of ordinary yard material when accepted
Material that needs confirmation
Large stumps, soil, rock, invasive plants, chemicals, liquids, and mixed construction debris require advance confirmation. Keep yard debris separate when the disposal facility requires a clean load.
Load and delivery planning
Cut long branches so nothing extends above the rim. Describe the amount of soil or stumps accurately, and choose a firm placement area that will not soften under the delivery truck or loaded container.
