Yard
The most room we offer
For projects that produce serious volume.
When a project involves several rooms, structural materials or a crew working over multiple days, debris adds up fast. A 20 yard dumpster provides the most capacity in our lineup, which helps large jobs keep moving without waiting on an extra haul.
It's the size homeowners most often choose for full kitchen remodels and whole-home cleanouts, and a common pick for contractors, roofers and businesses. Cabinets, countertops, drywall, flooring, furniture and packaging from new materials can all go into one container.
The trade-off is footprint. A 20 yard container is longer than our other sizes, so it needs a clear, level placement area and room for the delivery truck to approach in a straight line. Planning placement early is especially important at this size.

How a 20 yard compares
Compared with our 10 and 15 yard containers, the 20 yard offers the most volume at the cost of a longer footprint. For a large project, that extra room can mean the difference between one container and two.
For heavy materials, bigger isn't always better — a full load of dense debris can become very heavy. Tell us what's going in so we can confirm the 20 yard is the right choice for your project.

FAQ
20 yard dumpster questions
Have a different question? Call 217-795-9580.
Is a 20 yard dumpster enough for a kitchen remodel?
For many kitchen remodels, yes — it's one of the most common uses for this size. Very large remodels, or projects that combine several rooms, may need a swap partway through.
Does a 20 yard dumpster need more space?
Yes. It's our longest container, so it needs a clear, level area and room for the truck to back in straight. Tell us about the placement area when you call.
Can I use a 20 yard dumpster for roofing?
Roofing is a common use, but shingles are heavy. Share the roof size and number of layers when you request a quote so we can confirm the right container.
