15 Yard Dumpster Rental in San Antonio
The 15 yard dumpster is the in-between size, and for a lot of San Antonio projects it's the right one. It holds 15 cubic yards, about 4 to 6 pickup truck loads, in the same 12 ft x 8 ft footprint as our 10 yard, with taller 5 ft walls. You get about 50 percent more room without needing more driveway space.
Homeowners pick it for medium kitchen remodels and gut-outs, multi-room remodels, flooring across the main living area, and multi-room cleanouts. It also works well for deck removals and big yard cleanups after a spring of cedar and live oak trimming. Pricing starts at $429 and includes delivery, pickup, 28 days on site and disposal of up to 2 tons.
It fits the same spots a 10 yard does, whether that's a 1970s ranch driveway on the Northwest Side or a newer build in Converse or Universal City. Order online in a few minutes. Same-day delivery is available for most orders placed before 2 PM.

15 Yard Dumpster Weight Limit Notes
- 2 tons (4,000 lbs) of disposal is included, the same as the 10 yard. Anything over is billed at $90 per ton from the disposal scale ticket.
- Light remodel and cleanout debris rarely reaches 2 tons, but a full bin of tile, plaster or wet yard waste can.
- Shingles are accepted with a per-ton shingle fee, and they're heavy. A 15 yard full of shingles can pass 2 tons. For a full house roof, the 20 yard is the size the home page recommends.
- Dirt, concrete and brick go in the 10 yard heavy duty, not the 15.
