Is there a weight limit for the dumpsters?

Yes! To ensure safe transport, weight limits are in place. If you’re loading heavy materials like concrete, brick, or dirt, let us know so we can help you choose the right size!

Will the dumpster damage my driveway or property?

Dumpsters are designed for heavy loads, and prolonged weight can leave marks on concrete, asphalt, or pavers. Our driveway protection upgrade is highly recommended. To help protect your driveway from scratches, cracks, or surface damage, Dumpster Brothers offers a premium driveway protection option using industrial-grade fiberglass pads. These pads are designed to distribute weight evenly and shield your concrete or asphalt from direct contact with the dumpster’s heavy steel rails. Unlike competitors who use basic wood boards that often splinter or break—causing longer placement times and increased risk of damage—our fiberglass system is safer, more effective, and far more durable. However, due to safety concerns during placement, this protection is only offered when purchased in advance. If driveway protection is not selected, the customer assumes full responsibility for any and all damage to the surface. Dumpster Brothers will not supply protective materials, nor accept liability, unless this upgrade is included at checkout. Protect your property the right way—add driveway protection now to avoid costly repairs later.

How do I schedule a pickup?

We’ll pick up your dumpster only when you call to request it. That way, you can keep it as long as you need without worrying about automatic pickups or back-and-forth scheduling.

Can I have multiple dumpsters at once?

Absolutely! If you have a large project, we can deliver multiple dumpsters or swap out full ones for empty ones as needed.

How quickly can I get a dumpster delivered?

We offer same-day or next-day delivery whenever possible. Just call ahead to check availability!

How much does dumpster rental cost?

Our prices vary depending on your choice of size.

What happens if I overfill the dumpster?

Overfilled dumpsters cannot be hauled away safely. If the container is over the weight limit or filled beyond the top, we may require you to remove excess debris or apply extra charges.

Do I need to be home for the delivery or pickup?

Nope! As long as the drop-off spot is clear and accessible, we can handle everything while you’re away.

Can I move the dumpster after it’s placed?

No, dumpsters are extremely heavy and should never be moved. If you need it repositioned, give us a call—we’re happy to help!

How do I protect my driveway from damage?

We offer Dumpster Skates that elevate and stabilize the container while preventing driveway scratches and cracks. For $19.99, we’ll install them before delivery, ensuring your property stays damage-free.

30 Yard Dumpster for Large Projects

30 Yard Dumpster Rental — Built for Big Jobs Across North Metro Atlanta

When a renovation, large cleanout, or construction project requires serious capacity, the 30 yard dumpster is your workhorse. At 20 feet long and holding about 12 pickup truck loads, it’s our most popular size for multi room house remodels, whole estate liquidations, and larger commercial jobs.

Dumpster Brothers delivers 30 yard dumpsters to homes and businesses across North Metro Atlanta from our base in Alpharetta, GA. Same day delivery is available if you call by 10 AM. Our CDL A licensed driver will place your dumpster safely, walk your property, and leave you with a clear timeline for pickup. No hidden fees. No surprises. Just straightforward, professional service.

Whether you’re a contractor managing a major tear out or a homeowner who needs the room to do it right, we’ve got you covered.

30 Yard Dumpster Dimensions and Specs

The 30 yard roll off dumpster is one of our largest offerings, engineered to haul serious volume while still fitting on most residential and commercial driveways.

Physical Specs

Specification	Dimension
Length	20 feet
Width	7.5 feet (90 inches)
Height	5 feet 8 inches (68 inches)
Capacity	9–12 pickup truck loads
Weight Included	3 tons
Rental Period	14 days (flat rate)

Visual Comparison

Think of it this way: a 30 yard dumpster is roughly the size of two 15 yard dumpsters placed end to end. If a 20 yard holds about 8 loads, a 30 yard gives you 50% more room. That extra capacity makes a real difference when you’re trying to keep a large project organized and contained.

Why the 3 Ton Weight Limit Matters

Your rental includes 3 tons of disposal. Heavy materials like concrete, asphalt, brick, and roofing debris add up fast. A yard of concrete alone weighs about 1 ton. Concrete requires its own dedicated container and cannot be mixed with other debris. A 20 yard dumpster is the maximum for concrete projects. Call us if you’re unsure—we’ll walk you through sizing to avoid overage charges.

What Fits Inside a 30 Yard Dumpster

The 30 yard is large enough to handle mixed debris from substantial projects. Here’s what works well:

Residential Projects:

Entire kitchen and bathroom remodels with debris (drywall, old cabinets, flooring, tile)
Whole house cleanouts and estate liquidations
Roof tear offs and underlayment
Large deck removals and construction waste
Flooring replacement across multiple rooms
Garage and attic cleanouts

Commercial and Construction:

Overage:

If you exceed the 3 ton weight limit, a pro rated amount will be charged for overages.

Driveway Protection:

We offer driveway protection with fiberglass pads for $19.99 as an optional upgrade to your rental. The pads protect your driveway from the dumpster’s weight and prevent tracking debris onto the pavement.

Projects That Need a 30 Yard Dumpster

Multi Room House Renovations

When you're gutting more than one room—say a kitchen and two bathrooms—the 30 yard gives you the space to keep debris organized and contained. You're not making multiple trips to the dump or renting two smaller containers. One large dumpster, one rental fee.

Whole House or Estate Cleanouts

Estate cleanouts involve furniture, appliances, seasonal décor, and general household items that add volume fast. A 30 yard lets you clean out efficiently without stopping halfway through to schedule another pickup.

Large Deck Removal

Removing a substantial deck—30 by 20 feet or larger—with posts, framing, decking, and railing generates considerable debris. The 30 yard handles it without overage worries.

Roof Tear Off and Replacement

Roofing projects max out at a 20 yard dumpster — a 30 yard is not recommended for roofing. If you're doing a roof tear off combined with a major interior renovation, the 30 yard can handle the interior debris while a separate 20 yard handles the roofing material. Call us to discuss your specific project.

Commercial Renovation and Cleanout

Small commercial spaces undergoing renovations, office moves, or warehouse cleanouts benefit from the 30 yard's capacity. One rental covers the entire project without needing to arrange multiple containers.

Construction Site Cleanup

Contractors managing small to mid size construction projects often use the 30 yard for mixed construction debris, sawdust, pallets, drywall scraps, and packaging materials.

Every project is different.

These are typical uses, not hard rules. If you're unsure whether a 30 yard is right for your job, call us at (678) 787-2733. We'll discuss your project and help you pick the right size.

How Dumpster Rental Works

Renting a 20 yard dumpster is simple. Here’s the process:

Step 1: Choose Your Size and Call or Book Online

Look at your project scope and decide if a 30 yard feels right. If you’re not sure, that’s fine—call us at (678) 787-2733 and we’ll walk through it.

Or book online at dumpsterbrothers.com/rent-a-dumpster/ and we’ll confirm your details.

Step 2: Pick Your Dates

Tell us when you need the dumpster delivered. Same day is available if you call by 10 AM. If you call after 10 AM or need delivery tomorrow, we’ll schedule the next available slot. Deliveries happen Monday through Saturday; Sunday delivery is also available.

Step 3: We Deliver

Our driver will call you 30 minutes before arrival. He’ll walk your property with you, place the dumpster in the best spot (driveway, yard, street—whatever works), and make sure you understand the rental terms and pickup timeline. No surprises.

Step 4: Fill It Up

You’ve got 14 days. Fill the dumpster at your pace. Keep in mind the 3 ton weight limit if your debris is heavy (concrete, brick, roofing). Keep the waste inside the rim—nothing above the top edge.

Step 5: Call When Done

When your project is complete, call or text us. We’ll arrange pickup within 24 to 48 hours. The rental price is the same whether you finish early or use all 14 days.
