The Weight Or Density Of Your Waste May Limit Your Dumpster Size Options
The weight of some waste materials can limit your options for dumpster size as large volumes of heavy materials such as roofing shingles, dirt, concrete, brick, cinder block can NOT be deposited in the larger containers. Because of safety concerns and Department Of Transportation regulations limiting the weight of garbage trucks on public streets and highways, heavy materials need to be disposed of and transported in smaller quantities. Specifically, 20 yard dumpsters are the largest dumpsters that can be used for the disposal of roofing shingles, and 10 yard dumpsters are the largest that can be used for the disposal of dirt, concrete, cinder block, asphalt, bricks, etc.
