How Much STUFF Is 20 Yards Worth?

If you’re renting a 20-yard dumpster and you’re unsure how much will fit, here are some real-life examples to help you visualize:

Home renovation debris — A 20-yard dumpster can typically hold debris from a small to medium-sized kitchen or bathroom renovation, including cabinets, countertops, flooring and drywall.

Household cleanout — If you’re doing a cleanout, it can handle the contents of a garage, attic or basement, which might include old furniture, boxes of junk and other household items. It’s about enough space to dispose of 100-120 standard-sized kitchen trash bags.

Roofing projects — For roofing projects, a 20-yard dumpster can hold around 20 square feet of asphalt shingles, which is generally enough for a small to medium-sized home.

Yard waste — If you’re clearing a large yard, it can accommodate a significant amount of yard waste, like branches, leaves and shrubs, or about 300 square feet of deck boards if you’re tearing down a deck.
