12 Cubic Yard Container Rentals

So you're not sure of what size container to order. Don't worry, it's not an uncommon situation to be in, especially if this is your first time ordering a waste container. Let's figure out what size will work best for your needs.

The 12 cubic yard container (also known as a "12 yarder" or "12yd" for short) is the most commonly ordered size of container. A 12yd is big enough to hold alot of material, yet is small enough that it has a relatively light footprint on the ground. They are used for just about everything you can think of, from re-roof jobs to new home construction to homeowner junk cleanouts. The dimensions of a 12yd allow easy side loading, in addition to being equipped with a rear door that may be opened during loading. The container's construction is designed to handle higher density loads such as asphalt shingles and renovation materials.

 


 

12yd bins are ideal for:

  • New Home Construction Waste
  • Demolition Debris on smaller jobs (20yd bins are better for larger jobs)
  • Homeowner Needs (such as garage cleanups / basement junk, yard materials etc)
  • Asphalt Shingle Re-Roofs
  • Commercial Construction Sites (such as strip malls)
  • Dirt removal, Concrete removal (must be segregated to qualify for special rates; weight limits apply)
  • and pretty much everything else!
