Roofing Tear-off Dumpster Sizing by Squares
How big a roll-off container do you actually need for a roof tear-off in Eagan? Our low-wall roll-off is the standard choice: calculate your asphalt shingles at two-thirds of a cubic yard per square; a 20-yard container holds roughly 30 squares. Managing the tonnage requires planning, so call us at (651) 376-3585 for help.
15-Yard Roofing Dumpster
- Capacity: 15 cubic yards
- Fits: 15–20 squares of asphalt shingle
- Best for: Single-layer ranch and bungalow tear-offs
Our 10-yard can fits in a tight driveway and keeps shingle weight within legal tonnage for a single haul.
20-Yard Roofing Dumpster
- Capacity: 20 cubic yards
- Fits: 25–30 squares of asphalt shingle
- Best for: Most two-story residential tear-offs
The 20-Yard Container is our roofing workhorse because the low side walls let crews ground-throw shingles with ease.
30-Yard Roofing Dumpster
- Capacity: 30 cubic yards
- Fits: 35–45 squares of asphalt shingle
- Best for: Multi-layer tear-offs and small commercial roofs
Keep the 30-Yard Container on site to avoid delays in crew demobilization and second haul-out.
Asphalt Shingle Weight and Tonnage Planning
Most three-tab shingles average 250 pounds per square, architectural laminate closer to 400; a 25-square tear-off runs three to five tons before underlayment. That weight easily caps a standard container’s haul-out limit, which is why roofing dumpsters have lower side walls. A hooklift truck routes these cans with tonnage in mind, and for half-square jobs we cap it at a 10-yard can to stay within the weight limit?
When you mix shingle debris with framing or sheathing offcuts, we route the container to our general c&d debris service—instead of a standard roofing rate—to ensure the load is handled at the correct processing facility for your project.
Driveway Placement for Roofing Crew Workflow
We angle the roof tear-off container sizing so the swing-door faces your eave, allowing your crew to ground-throw shingles directly into the bin. Before I drop the roll-off in Eagan, I set down wooden planks to protect your concrete; this ensures the heavy rollers never leave a mark. We also suggest a six-foot tarp perimeter for a clean nail sweep. Consult this asphalt shingle disposal best practices guide to streamline your site management.
Drop angle
Rear door toward the roof line
Set the swing-door end of the bin to face the eave for efficient walk-in loading and easier ground-throw debris management.
Surface protection
Wooden planks under every roller
Loaded shingle weight can gouge concrete; driveway boards stay under the rear rollers for the full rental window.
Sweep zone
Six-foot tarp perimeter
Stage magnetic sweepers on the tarp side so nail cleanup runs in parallel with loading the heavy debris.
Tile, Slate, and Metal Roof Tear-off Containers
Concrete tile, natural slate, and standing-seam metal weigh two to four times what asphalt does per square; this material punishes a standard container that was not built for the load. For these jobs, we route in a heavy-duty 30-yard low-wall bin: it features reinforced sides and a heavier floor plate to survive the impact. We cap the fill volume below the rim to keep axle weight legal on our lowboy; we also handle any general construction debris service. Call (651) 376-3585.
