Real reviews from Birmingham customers
“I used Call-N-Haul over. the Christmas holidays and could not have asked for better help. The dumpster arrived exactly when promised, and placed where it was needed. I would suggest anyone moving, renovating, or just needing a Spring Cleaning to contact this company. Excellent.”
Beth Dozier
via Call-N-Haul Dumpsters →“Delivered same day. Nice dumpster with rear opening door. The only minor issue was I didn’t realize that if you want it for more than a week you have to notify them. They did come to pick it up on day 7 but issue was quickly resolved. Will definitely be using again.”
“We own a deck and fence construction company and we only use dumpster daddy! Hands down best in the business! They are the only ones we trust with our projects. From start to finish they are easy to use and they care about their customers.”

What size dumpster do you need in Birmingham?
Roofing Projects
A typical Birmingham roof tear-off generates 3–5 tons of shingles and underlayment. A 20–30 yard dumpster handles most single-layer residential roofs, but go with a 30 if you have a multi-layer strip or architectural shingles. Ask your hauler about weight limits — asphalt shingles are heavy and overweight fees in Alabamacan add $75–$150 per extra ton.
Kitchen Remodels
Kitchen gut-outs produce cabinets, countertops, flooring, and drywall — bulky but relatively light. A 10–15 yard dumpster is usually enough for a standard kitchen demo in Birmingham. If you're removing tile flooring or concrete countertops, size up to a 20 yard to stay under the weight cap.
Estate Cleanouts
Clearing an entire home in Birminghamtypically requires a 20–30 yard dumpster. Furniture, mattresses, clothing, and household items fill space fast. Plan for 2–3 loads if the property has a garage, attic, and basement. Schedule a 7–14 day rental so you can sort donations from trash without rushing.
Garage Cleanouts
Most Birminghamgarage cleanouts fit comfortably in a 10–15 yard dumpster. That covers accumulated tools, storage bins, old furniture, and miscellaneous junk. If you're also tearing out shelving, drywall, or a workbench, bump up to a 20 yard to be safe.
Construction Projects
New builds, additions, and major renovations in Birmingham generate heavy mixed debris — concrete, lumber, drywall, and metal. A 30–40 yard dumpster is standard for active job sites. Most contractors in Alabama keep a roll-off on site for the full project duration and swap it out when full.
