Houston construction dumpster
At Frontier Waste Solutions, we have specialists to take good care of you and answer any questions you might have. We offer free site surveys to make sure that your site is equipped with the perfect-sized dumpster rental Houston offers. When we arrive, we survey your site to ensure the placement is in a spot that’s safe and convenient for your needs as well as our drivers. Here are the specs on each construction dumpster rental in Houston, TX:
The 20-yard dumpster is a popular choice because of its versatility to be matched with many different kinds of projects. When you’re deciding on the size of your container, you need to consider the size and nature of your project.
A 20-yard dumpster is perfect for roofing projects that require tearing off and disposing of asphalt shingles. It can also be suitable for single-room home renovations (such as a bedroom, kitchen, or bathroom). You can also use 20-yard roll-off containers for heavy brush and landscaping tear-outs.
What’s the capacity of a 20-Yard dumpster?
A 20-yard dumpster holds 20 cubic yards of waste. Another way of thinking about it is by saying it can hold about 6 pickup trucks worth of garbage or about 120 33-gallon trash bags.
The weight of the material you’re loading not only affects what size dumpster you receive but also affects how high the container can be filled. Typically a 20 yd roll-off is generally 3 to 5 tons or 6,000 to 10,000 pounds. This of course varies on the density and heaviness of the material you are throwing away.
20-yard dumpster dimensions
Our 20-yard construction dumpsters are approximately 20 feet long X 8 feet wide X 4 feet in height.
Next up is the 30-yard roll-off. A 30-yard dumpster is the next size up from the 20-yard container. A 30-yard construction dumpster is reserved for projects that generate construction and demolition debris. This includes new home construction, building demolitions, estate cleanouts and large renovations.
What’s the capacity of a 30-yard dumpster?
A 30-yard dumpster holds 30 cubic yards of waste. This is about the equivalent of 8 pickup trucks worth of garbage or 180 33-gallon trash bags. Remember this is volume only and the weight of your load also needs to be taken into account. There is a limit to how much you can fill a dumpster depending on the weight of your waste.
Think about 30 cubic yards of concrete compared to 30 cubic yards of dry brush. The weight of the container would be incredibly different.
Dimensions of a 30-yard roll-off container
Our 30-yard roll-off dumpsters are approximately 20 feet long X 8 feet wide X 6 feet 2 inches tall.
The 40-yard roll-offs are the largest roll-off containers available. They are perfect for large items, homes or buildings, new home construction and demolitions. If your project generates a massive amount of waste you may need the big daddy of roll-off containers: The 40-yard construction dumpster.
What’s the capacity of a 40-yard dumpster?
A 40-yard dumpster holds 40 cubic yards of waste. You can also picture the equivalent of about 240 33-gallon trash bags or 12 pickup trucks worth of garbage. Again, the weight of the material you’re loading will affect the height that you can fill your container.

Heavy-trash day or a roll-off?
Houston’s heavy-trash pickup comes every other month, up to six collections a year for eligible homes, and each set-out is capped at 8 cubic yards. Only 4 cubic yards of that can be building material a resident removed, and shingles, brick, plaster and concrete are excluded entirely. Contractor debris isn’t collected at all, and apartment buildings with more than eight units aren’t eligible.
That’s why a re-roof, a kitchen gut or a flooded-room tear-out ends up in a roll-off. For an interior job, start with a renovation container.
Storm debris, the City's way
Hurricane Beryl came ashore near Matagorda at 4 a.m. on July 8, 2024. Less than two months earlier, the May 16, 2024 derecho pushed winds over 100 mph through the Houston metro, the National Weather Service reports. After storms like these, the City asks residents to keep storm debris separate from bulk waste and from construction and demolition debris at the curb.
Apartment complexes work differently. The City treats them as commercial property, so the owner or management company arranges its own debris removal. That’s where a 40-yard comes in, the size we list for storm debris.
Storm cleanup or a gut job?
Running a business? Know the dumpster permit
The City of Houston requires a Combustible Waste Storage permit for commercial properties that keep a dumpster or roll-off larger than 50 cubic feet. For one dumpster, the annual fee is $201.40, and fines for skipping it range from $750 to $2,000, according to the Houston Permitting Center. Our commercial bins run from 2 to 8 yards, emptied up to six times a week.
From our Beltway 8 yard
Our Houston location is at 5959 South Sam Houston Parkway East, inside the city limits on Beltway 8 in southeast Houston. A lot is being built around it. Hobby Airport’s $470 million West Concourse topped out on December 5, 2025 and is due in 2027. In 2025, Gulfbelt Logistics Park broke ground at I-45 and Beltway 8, with six warehouses totaling 943,887 square feet planned. Nearby Glenbrook Valley, built between 1953 and 1962, is Houston’s largest intact neighborhood of ranch and mid-century modern homes. For a whole-house renovation, look at the 30-yard.
Our Houston trucks also run west to Katy, southwest to Sugar Land and north to Spring.
What can't go in, and where it goes
Paint, chemicals and batteries go to the City’s Environmental Service Centers. ESC-South is at 11500 S. Post Oak Road. ESC-North, at 5614 Neches Street, opens on the second Thursday of each month. Harris County’s household hazardous waste facility at 6900 Hahl Road serves county residents who live outside Houston city limits. Refrigerators and freezers need a certified technician’s tag showing the refrigerant was removed before the City’s heavy-trash crews will take them.
How much does it cost to rent a dumpster in Houston?
The short answer is that it depends on the nature and area of your project. Your price is determined by the transportation and disposal costs at the closest landfill in the market. Our specialists will need to know what you plan on loading into the container. We also need to estimate how heavy the haul will be, how long you plan on renting for and the duration of your project.
Our rates are extremely competitive and transparent, unlike some of our competition. It’s not uncommon for other companies to hit you with unannounced fees, surcharges and add-on’s until they bill you. We offer haul plus disposal rates as well as flat rates for our containers. It’s important to have a quick discussion on the details of your project before we quote you on roll away container rental services.
How to prepare for your container rental:
Choose the right location
The most ideal situation is to have your Houston dumpster placed on a hard flat surface. This makes it easy to be delivered and easy to load on our truck once you’ve filled it up.
The area should be free of long hanging branches or wires that could potentially obstruct the delivery of an empty container or get in the way of hauling your waste away. The trucks we use to deliver and haul away your dumpster will need at least 60 feet to approach the delivery spot and 21 feet in clearance height.
