Description
20yd Can
Our most common size can is the 20yd size. Like its name alludes, it holds up to 20 cubic yards of material. This is great for large clean outs, construction projects, renovations, and outdoor cleanup projects. This can is equivalent to approximately 7 pickup truck loads or 2500 square feet of one layer of roofing shingles. This can features a single swinging style barn door that allows for easy walk-in access.
Outside dimensions: 14ft long x 8ft wide x 6ft tall
Loading and unloading area needed:40ft long x 10ft wide x 16ft tall
Tonnage included: Our price includes up to 4 tons (8000 pounds) of waste. Anything over 4 tons is subject to an additional fee.
Rental Period: Our price includes up to a 7 day rental. Don’t need it that long? No problem, just select the period you would like on the schedule. Over 7 days is fine too, there is a daily rental fee each day beyond the 7th day.
Waste Types
MSW stands for municipal solid waste and is most commonly referred to as your typical household waste. C&D represents construction and demolition. It is as straight forward as its name. Waste generated from construction jobs such as new builds, renovations, and tear downs.
Roofing
Determining the volume and weight of shingles can be tricky. A simple rule of thumb is there are 100 square feet in 1 roofing square. Architectural shingles are roughly 400 pounds per roofing square, where smaller 3-tab shingles are closer to 250 pounds per roofing square.
Roof square feet / 100 x weight of shingles in a roofing square x number of layers = estimated pounds of shingles
Example: 2500 sq ft / 100 x 250 pounds x 1 layer = 6250 pounds or 3.13 tons
