Roofing debris, especially asphalt shingles, is extremely heavy. A single square (100 sq ft) of shingles weighs 200-350 lbs. That's why we double the included weight on roofing dumpsters: a roofing 20-yard comes prepaid at 4 tons. Roll-off dumpsters placed close to the roof allow crews to toss debris directly in, keeping the jobsite clean and the project on schedule.
For a 1,500 sq ft roof (single layer tear-off), a 20-yard dumpster is usually sufficient. For roofs over 2,000 sq ft or multi-layer tear-offs, a 30-yard dumpster provides the extra capacity you need. Remember: shingles are heavy, so you may hit the weight limit before the volume limit.
Position the dumpster as close to the roof edge as possible so your crew can drop debris straight in. This reduces cleanup time and keeps the yard safe. Make sure there's clearance for the delivery truck and that the ground can support the loaded weight.
Roofing dumpsters typically range from $525 to $995 for a 20 or 30-yard, depending on location. Because roofing debris is heavy, we double the included weight: a roofing 20-yard comes prepaid at 4 tons.
A 20-yard dumpster handles most single-layer residential tear-offs (up to 1,500 sq ft). For larger roofs or multi-layer removals, go with a 30-yard.
