Is a 30 yard the right size for your project?
A 30 yard dumpster is serious capacity for serious projects. It's the right choice when you're clearing an entire house — whether for an estate cleanout, a move-out, or a major remodel that spans the whole home. The 6-foot height means it holds 50% more than a 20 yard while taking up the same driveway space. Choose a 30 yard if you're gutting multiple rooms, removing a large roof (especially multi-layer), or handling disaster cleanup. If you're a contractor working on a residential remodel, this is your workhorse size.
Pro tip for St. Louis rentals: If you're unsure about sizing, call a few local haulers and describe your project. Most St. Louisdumpster companies will recommend the right size based on years of experience with local projects — and it's in their interest to get it right, since swapping out a dumpster mid-project costs everyone time and money.

30 Yard dumpster rental FAQ — St. Louis, Missouri
What projects need a 30 yard dumpster in St. Louis?
A 30 yard dumpster is built for large-scale projects: whole-house cleanouts (estate cleanups, hoarding situations), major renovations spanning multiple rooms, large roof replacements (2,500+ sq ft or multi-layer tear-offs), and disaster restoration work. If your project produces more than 8 pickup truck loads of debris, a 30 yard is the right call.
How is a 30 yard dumpster different from a 20 yard in St. Louis?
A 30 yard dumpster has the same 22' x 8' footprint as a 20 yard but is 6 feet tall instead of 4.5 feet. That extra 1.5 feet of height adds 10 cubic yards of capacity — 50% more volume. The higher walls mean you'll need to toss debris over a 6-foot wall, which can be challenging with heavy items.
Can I mix different types of debris in a 30 yard dumpster in St. Louis?
Yes, most haulers allow mixed debris (household junk, construction materials, furniture, appliances) in a single 30 yard dumpster. The main exceptions are hazardous waste, tires, batteries, and items containing refrigerants. Some haulers charge extra for mattresses. If you're disposing of heavy materials like concrete mixed with light debris, be mindful of the 4-ton weight limit.
