What size fits your Leadville job?
Leadville jobs mix historic-home remodels and mining-era cleanouts. A garage or single room fits a 10-yard dumpster. A multi-room cleanout or kitchen remodel fits a 20-yard dumpster. Full tear-downs need a 30-yard or 40-yard dumpster. Old plaster, lathe, and masonry are heavy, so a small dumpster often fits best by weight.
- 10-yard dumpster: small cleanouts, one room, or heavy concrete and dirt.
- 15-yard dumpster: mid-size cleanouts and two-room remodels.
- 20-yard dumpster: the most rented size. Kitchens, roofing, and multi-room cleanouts.
- 30-yard dumpster: whole-house cleanouts and big renovations.
- 40-yard dumpster: major demolition and light bulky debris only.
