Real reviews from Memphis customers
“This was my first time renting a roll off dumpster and it couldn’t have been smoother. They suggested the right size based on my project and it worked out perfectly. The unit was dropped off early morning and taken away soon after I was done. The staff kept everything easy to understand and clear.”
Katherine Pleasant
via Dumpster Rental Champs →“Called several companies. It was cheapest. Customer service rep was great. It's an easy instruction with a text what they needed to do and they did. They are prompt for any of my questions. Text before they arrive. Everybody should know this company.”

What size dumpster do you need in Memphis?
Roofing Projects
A typical Memphis 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 Tennesseecan 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 Memphis. 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 Memphistypically 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 Memphisgarage 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 Memphis generate heavy mixed debris — concrete, lumber, drywall, and metal. A 30–40 yard dumpster is standard for active job sites. Most contractors in Tennessee keep a roll-off on site for the full project duration and swap it out when full.
