20-Yard Dumpster Rental Near Me in Dandridge & Morristown

At 15 feet long and 8 feet wide, the 20-yard sits on a normal driveway without eating your whole parking pad. The walls are 4.25 feet tall, low enough that you can load it by hand or roll a wheelbarrow up to the edge instead of throwing debris over your head all day. It holds roughly 7 to 8 pickup truck loads, the sweet spot for the jobs most folks around here are doing. That covers a garage or basement cleanout, a single-room remodel, a whole-house clear-out, or a load of construction debris like old flooring, drywall, and lumber.

It is also the dumpster roofers reach for on a roofing tear-off. A 20-yard swallows the tear-off from a typical asphalt-shingle roof around Newport, Kodak, and Knoxville. Run your square footage through our shingle weight calculator before you book so you know the load will come in under the ton that is included. If the dumpster has to sit on the street instead of a driveway, our permit guide covers the local rules for Dandridge and Jefferson County.

20-Yard vs 15-Yard Dumpster Rental in Dandridge

The 20-yard is the one we recommend for almost everything. It is only a foot taller than the 15, costs about the same to run, and gives you the extra room so you are not paying for a second haul. The 15-yard is the original dumpster the company started with, and there is exactly one of it. It rents first come, first served when it is not out on a job of our own. If the 15 is busy, the 20-yard 3-day at $375 is the cheaper rental anyway. When in doubt, go with the 20 or give Jason a call and he will point you the right way.

Will a 20-Yard Dumpster Fit in My Driveway?

The short answer for most homes in Jefferson County: yes.

The footprint is about 15 feet long by 8 feet wide, so a standard driveway takes it with room to walk around. With 4.25-foot walls it is still low enough to load by hand, so you are not throwing debris over your head all day.

What matters more than the parking spot is the approach. The truck needs a straight run to back in and clear overhead room to tilt the dumpster off. Keep the drop spot free of low limbs, power lines, a basketball hoop, and parked vehicles. If you are not sure the truck can make the turn, tell us about the driveway when you book and we will sort it out before delivery day rather than on it.

Worried about the surface? Ask about our rolliskates when you book. They are pads that go under the dumpster and spread its weight so the steel is not resting directly on your concrete or asphalt. On your own driveway you need no paperwork; if it has to sit on a public street, check our permit guide first.

What One Ton Looks Like in a 20-Yard

Every 3- and 7-day rental includes up to 1 ton (2,000 lbs).

A 20-yard fills up long before it hits the weight limit on a normal household cleanout. Furniture, carpet, clothes and general junk are bulky and light, so most cleanouts finish under the ton. Roofing is the opposite: shingles run about 250 pounds a square (100 square feet of roof), so roughly eight squares is a ton on its own.

Go over the ton and it is a flat $85 per ton in Jefferson, Hamblen and Cocke County, or $125 per ton farther out. We bill the exact weight off the scale ticket and send it with your invoice, so you are checking the same number we saw rather than a rounded-up guess. Tearing off a roof? Run the numbers first with our shingle weight calculator.

Concrete, brick, block, dirt and rock are the one thing we say no to at any size. They can pass what the truck is legally allowed to carry while the dumpster still looks half empty. The acceptable items page has the full in-and-out list.
