10 Yard Dumpster Rental in CT
The 10 yard dumpster is our most versatile mid-range container — ideal for renovations, roofing jobs, and construction cleanup across Connecticut.
The 10 yard roll-off dumpster is the workhorse of our fleet and one of the most-requested sizes across Fairfield County. At 12 feet long and 3.5 feet high, it keeps a low profile on your property while still swallowing up to 2 tons of renovation debris, roofing materials, or mixed construction waste. Contractors love it for single-layer roof tear-offs, and homeowners use it for kitchen remodels, flooring replacement, and multi-room cleanouts. The 3.5-foot sidewall height makes it easy to toss debris over the edge without a ramp. Associated Refuse has been delivering 10 yard containers to job sites and driveways from Stamford to Waterbury for over 44 years — we know exactly how to position the container to protect your property and keep your project moving.

Driveway & Placement

10 Yard Dumpster FAQs
What fits in a 10 yard dumpster?
A 10 yard dumpster holds about 30 to 40 trash bags, or roughly 3 pickup-truck loads — enough for a garage or attic cleanout, a flooring tear-out, or a single-layer roof tear-off. Its low 3.5-foot walls make loading easy.
How many pickup truck loads fit in a 10 yard dumpster?
A 10 yard dumpster holds approximately 3 full pickup truck loads of debris, making it significantly more efficient than hauling loads to the dump yourself.
Can I use a 10 yard dumpster for a roof replacement?
Yes. A 10 yard dumpster handles a single-layer roof tear-off for most average-sized homes. For multi-layer tear-offs or larger roofs, consider a 20 or 30 yard container.
