Capacity
What Fits in a 15 Yard Dumpster
A 15 yard dumpster from TS Dumpsters holds a single room taken back to the studs, or the contents of a two car garage, with room left over. Where it runs out is weight, not space, and the table says which jobs hit which limit first.
Read the right hand column before you book. Comfortable means the walls fill before the scale does. Weight limited means the opposite, and those are the jobs where a bigger container solves nothing.
| Job | Typical fit |
|---|---|
| Single room cleanout | Comfortable. Furniture, carpet and stored contents together |
| Small bathroom remodel | Comfortable, unless the floor is tile. Tile is heavy |
| Garage clearout | Comfortable. A two car garage fits with room to spare |
| Small roof tear off | Weight limited. Shingles reach 2 tons before the walls fill |
| Deck removal | Comfortable on dry boards. Wet or pressure treated runs heavy |
Weight is measured on a certified scale at the landfill and the ticket is available on request.
Specification
15 Yard Dumpster Dimensions and Capacity
A 15 yard dumpster from TS Dumpsters measures 14' long, 7' wide and 4' high. Width is the same across the whole fleet, so if a 15 yard clears your access, every other size does too and only length and wall height change.
- Length14' Outside the box, front to back
- Width7' The same on the 12, 15, 18 and 20 yard alike
- Height4' Wall height, measured to the top rail
- Tonnage included2 tons Weighed on a certified scale at the landfill
- Rental period7 days Starts the day it is delivered
- 14' Floor length
Two feet longer than the 12 yard and two feet shorter than the 18, on the same width.
- 2 Tons included
The scale ticket at the landfill is what sets the tonnage on your invoice, and you can ask for a copy.
- 7' Wide, every size
Width never changes across the fleet, so the driveway footprint barely moves between the smallest and the largest.

Sizing
Is a 15 Yard Big Enough for Your Job?
TS Dumpsters builds the 15 and the 18 to include the same 2 tons. Stepping up to an 18 buys two more feet of floor and a foot more wall and no extra weight allowance, so if the load is heavy rather than bulky, the size is not what needs to change.
What pushes a load past 2 tons is density, not volume. Shingles are the usual one. Wet carpet is another, and in Florida carpet gets wet fast. Plaster and ceramic tile both run heavy for how little room they take. A load of any of those reaches the cap with the walls still visible.
Bulky and light is the opposite problem, and that is what a bigger box actually solves. Cabinets, framing lumber, deck boards and furniture take room without taking weight. For those, the 18 yard is the right step up. Going the other way, the 12 yard, which includes the same 2 tons, costs less and fits a tighter driveway.
Roofing is the exception. Tear offs get their own container, priced by the ton rather than with an allowance built in: see roofing dumpster rental.

Questions
15 Yard Dumpster FAQs
How many pickup truck loads is a 15 yard dumpster?
More than most people expect, which is the reason to rent one rather than make trips. A 15 yard container clears a two car garage in a single drop, and the loading happens on your schedule instead of across a weekend of driving. It also sits where you are working, so nothing gets carried twice.
Will a 15 yard dumpster fit on my driveway?
It is 14' long and 7' wide. Leave room behind it for the truck to tilt and roll off, keep the approach straight, and check for low branches and wires. Call if the access is tight and we will tell you before the truck is loaded.
What happens if I go over 2 tons?
Overage is $80 per ton, which is what the landfill charges us, passed through with nothing added on top. The scale ticket is available on request if you want to see the weight.
Can I keep it longer than 7 days?
Yes. Extra days on this container are $25 each. Call before the term is up rather than after, so we can move the pickup instead of turning a truck around.
