10 Yard Dumpster

Our 10 yard dumpster is ideal for smaller home projects, DIY renovations, and quick cleanouts throughout Louisville, Bardstown, Elizabethtown, Shepherdsville, and Mount Washington. This compact dumpster holds up to 2 tons of material, or about three pickup truck loads.

Best Uses:

• Small home remodels and DIY projects

Its low walls make loading heavy items simple, and its compact footprint fits easily into driveways in both suburban and tighter city areas.

15 Yard Dumpster

When a 10 yard dumpster isn’t quite enough but a 20 yard feels too large, the 15 yard dumpster provides the perfect balance. This size is popular for renovation and cleanout projects throughout Louisville, Bardstown, Elizabethtown, Shepherdsville, and Mount Washington.

Best Uses:

• Large room cleanouts
• Flooring or carpet removal
• Estate cleanouts or rental property turnovers
• Medium-sized renovations
• Light construction or remodeling projects

With plenty of room yet still driveway-friendly, this size works well for homes and job sites in all five service areas.

20 Yard Dumpster

The 20 yard dumpster is the best choice for large cleanouts and major renovation work across Louisville, Bardstown, Elizabethtown, Shepherdsville, and Mount Washington. This size offers more space without sacrificing the ability to fit in most driveways.

Best Uses:

• Multi-room home renovations
• Roofing projects and shingle disposal
• Large-scale cleanouts before selling or renting
• Deck, shed, or interior demolition
• Removal of cabinets, flooring, drywall, and bulky debris

It is the top option for heavier projects that generate more waste and require dependable hauling capacity.
