20-Yard Dumpster Rental in Southern New Hampshire.

The 20 is the workhorse. It's two feet longer than the 10 and 15, same height as the 15. It still fits on the average two-car driveway with room to walk around, and it gives you enough volume that the average homeowner doesn't have to think about packing it like a Tetris game.

We will place boards under the dumpster wheels upon request.

Good fit for

• Full-house cleanout including furniture and appliances
• Roof tear-off, single or double layer, average home
• Major addition or renovation debris
• Big garage and shed combo cleanout
• Estate cleanout
• Post-foreclosure cleanout
• Deck and fence tear-out with hardware and treated lumber

Roofing math

A single layer of asphalt shingles on a 2,000 sq ft roof is roughly 4,500 to 5,000 lbs of waste, about 2.5 tons. That bumps you over the 20's 2-ton allowance, so if you're tearing off a larger roof or two layers, ask about the 30 or expect to pay overage. We'll talk it through on the phone before delivery.

Where the 20 doesn't work

Heavy demolition with concrete, brick, or full tear-downs. The volume is fine, but the weight gets you. For anything heavy or contractor-scale, look at the 30.
