What Fits in a 30 Yard Dumpster?

The 30 yard is a jobsite box. It handles:

  • A new home build, from framing scraps to packaging
  • A home addition or a gut remodel
  • A tear down of a small house, garage, or shed
  • A large roof, one layer, on a big home
  • A commercial cleanout in a store or office
  • A big storm cleanup with limbs and damaged materials

For a typical house roof or a kitchen and bath remodel, a 20 yard costs less. For a whole house cleanout, the 25 yard is usually enough. For warehouse jobs, see the 40 yard.

30 Yard Dumpster Dimensions and Weight Limit

The box is 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 6 feet tall. It is 6 feet longer than a 25 yard, which is why it needs a long, clear spot. The walls are tall, so use the swing door to walk heavy items in.

The included weight is 4 tons, or 8,000 pounds. Framing lumber, drywall, and packaging are light, so you will fill the space first. Concrete, brick, and soil are heavy. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment uses about 1,800 pounds per cubic yard for clean rubble. At that rate, 4 tons covers only about 4.4 cubic yards of rubble, a small part of a 30 yard box.

Asphalt shingles weigh about 180 to 240 pounds per roofing square. After allowing for felt and nails, 4 tons covers about 30 to 39 squares of one layer. If you are tearing off a roof and clearing a house at once, plan for two boxes.

30 Yard Dumpster for New Builds and Demolition

Contractors need boxes on time and swaps that do not stall the crew. On a demolition or new build, split the load. Use one box for heavy debris such as concrete and brick, and one for light debris such as drywall and lumber. Splitting the load can cost less than one overweight box.

When a box fills, call for a swap. The truck takes the full box and leaves an empty one, so the crew keeps working. Ask about a standing schedule if you have repeat jobs. Our construction dumpster page covers how swaps and split loads work.

Is a 30 Yard Dumpster Rental Longview TX the Right Size?

Choose a 30 yard for new builds, additions, tear downs, and big cleanouts. Choose a 25 yard if the job is a house cleanout. Choose a 40 yard for a warehouse or a very large demolition. When you are between two sizes for 30 yard dumpster rental Longview TX, choose the larger one, because a second haul costs more than a bigger box.

Where Can a 30 Yard Dumpster Go?

You need a spot about 22 feet long and 8 feet wide. For 30 yard dumpster rental Longview TX, the truck needs about 60 feet of straight room and about 23 to 25 feet of clear height. Look up for tree limbs and power lines, and look around for gates, fences, and parked cars.

A jobsite with a long, level, hard surface is best. On soft ground, ask for boards under the box, because wet East Texas clay can leave ruts and make pickup harder. If the box goes on the street or the sidewalk, ask the City of Longview first. Engineering Services is at 903 237 1362, and Development Services handles site inspections at 903 237 1074. A box fully on your own lot generally needs no city permit. Check any homeowners association rules.

What Can’t Go in a 30 Yard Dumpster?

Most building debris is fine, including lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, and cabinets. Paint, solvents, motor oil, lead acid batteries, propane tanks, and medical waste are not. Pine Hill Landfill, south of Longview near Hwy 31 and FM 1252, takes tires only if they are split, quartered, or shredded. Concrete, brick, and dirt are fine in smaller loads, so ask first.
