Dumpster size details
Three sizes, ready for your project
Every rental includes 10 days, plus a tonnage allowance. The day of delivery does not count toward the 10. Days past the tenth are $10.00 per day, and weight over the included tonnage is billed at $0.060 per pound against the scaled weight ticket.

Understanding the tonnage allowance
Each size includes a set tonnage in the price, and anything over it is billed at $0.060 per pound, supported by the scaled weight ticket from the disposal facility. That is why debris type matters as much as volume: a container of drywall and cabinetry rarely approaches its allowance, while dense material reaches it long before the container looks full. Tell us what you are loading when you order and we will recommend a size that keeps you inside the allowance.
Clean-fill concrete containers
Concrete goes in a dedicated clean-fill container, not a standard rental. It has to be clean concrete only, with no paint on the surface, no trash, no construction material mixed in. Tell us in advance if your concrete has rebar. Call and we will set up the right container for the material.
What cannot go in the dumpster
Some materials cannot go in a standard trash, construction or clean-out container, and loading them can result in a $150.00 additional trip charge if we cannot service the container as scheduled:
- Asbestos, friable or non-friable
- Paints, acids, chemicals, chlorine
- Batteries, tires, drums, propane tanks
- Fluorescent ballasts and bulbs
- Appliances that contain or previously contained Freon
- Electronics
- Tree stumps over 36 inches in diameter
- Railroad ties or any material containing creosote
- Soil, clean or contaminated
- Any hazardous or special waste
Sizing your project
How to choose the right dumpster size
- Accurate estimates prevent headaches. Knowing what fits means you are not stuck with an overfilled container on day two, or a second haul you did not plan for. We will help you estimate correctly from the start.
- Match size to timeline. Weekend cleanups need different capacity than month-long renovations. A smaller dumpster emptied mid-project is often smarter than renting capacity you never use.
- Common projects have predictable loads. Kitchen remodels, deck replacements, yard waste, office cleanouts: these are the project types we size most often, and you will recognize yours in the examples below.
- Heavier materials need planning. Masonry, roofing and scrap metal weigh far more per cubic yard than wood or drywall, so they reach the tonnage allowance faster. Soil is not accepted, and concrete needs a clean-fill container.
- Right-sizing is cost-effective. You pay for capacity you actually use. Oversizing wastes money; undersizing creates extra pickups and disruption. The middle path is the efficient one.
- Real-world comparisons help. “Ten yards” is an abstract number. We compare each size to pickup truck loads and typical project scope so you can picture the fit.

What the 20-yard handles

WHO SIZES YOUR JOB
Sizing Advice From A Local Hauler
KLS Dumpster is a locally owned and operated dumpster rental company based in Telford, Pennsylvania. The person who answers the phone is the person who knows what fits in each container, so a size recommendation takes one short conversation, not a form and a callback.
Locally Rooted
Being local is not a marketing line for us; it is the whole operating model. We know the neighborhoods we deliver to, which driveways need a careful approach, and which job sites need the container placed where the crew is actually working. That local knowledge is why our delivery is reliable: we are not guessing at drive times or routing a truck from two counties over.
How We Work
We keep the process short. You tell us what you are clearing out and roughly how much. We recommend a size. We confirm a delivery window that works for your project, including same-day service and weekend delivery when you need it. The container arrives, you fill it, and we haul it away when you are done. If your timeline shifts, call us and we will adjust.
Who We Serve
Our customers run the full range: homeowners doing a once-a-decade cleanout, business owners handling a property turnover, and contractors who need a dependable hauler on every job. The common thread is that all of them need the dumpster part of the project to be uncomplicated. That is the part we are good at.
Preparing for Your Delivery
A little preparation makes delivery day go smoothly. Clear the drop spot before the truck arrives: move vehicles and anything else in the way, and check that low branches or wires will not interfere with the container coming off the truck. A container parked as close as possible to the work saves an enormous amount of carrying over the course of a project.
Ready when you are
Book the Right Size
Once you have landed on a size, booking takes a couple of minutes: pick the container, pick the delivery date, and confirm.

WHERE WE DELIVER
All Three Sizes Across Our Service Area
KLS Dumpster delivers 10, 15 and 20-yard containers throughout a roughly 10 to 20-mile radius around Telford, Pennsylvania. Collegeville marks the southern edge of our regular delivery range, and every town on this list gets the full size selection.

There is a practical reason we define our service area this way rather than claiming to cover half the state: a hauler working a realistic radius can promise a delivery window and keep it. Staying inside a range we can actually serve is what makes same-day service and weekend delivery real rather than aspirational. If you do not see your town listed and you are somewhere in that radius, call us. Odds are good we already deliver there, and we will tell you honestly if you fall outside our range.
Dumpster size questions
Most kitchen renovations fit in a 15-yard dumpster. If you are also replacing flooring or cabinetry elsewhere, 20 yards gives you room. Ask us if you are unsure; one call gets you exact sizing.
Yes. Some projects work better with two pickups than with one oversized container. We will adjust your rental and bill for the additional pickup. Whatever works best for your timeline and budget.
Call us before the scheduled pickup. Weight over the included tonnage is billed at $0.060 per pound against the scaled weight ticket, so it helps to talk through your options first. Being upfront avoids surprises.
Tell us the project type and rough volume. Office furniture and boxes? A kitchen remodel with old appliances? A roof tear-off? Describe it and we will estimate the right size from your description.
Heavier debris reaches the tonnage allowance faster: masonry, roofing and scrap metal weigh far more per yard than wood or drywall. Tell us your debris type when you call and we will confirm the details for your rental. Note that soil is not accepted in any container, and concrete needs a dedicated clean-fill container.
No. Debris must stay level with the container walls for safe transport. An overloaded container that cannot be serviced as scheduled carries a $150.00 additional trip charge, so call us if you are approaching capacity.
The 10-yard is $415.00, the 15-yard is $460.00 and the 20-yard is $515.00, so the step up is a modest difference against the cost of ordering an extra pickup for a job that outgrew its container. Ask us when you call.
The 15-yard includes 1.5 tons, with anything over billed at $0.060 per pound. Lightweight items such as wood, drywall and household goods rarely reach that allowance; dense material like masonry or roofing gets there much faster. Call and we will confirm sizing for your debris type.
Drained water heaters are generally fine. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners are not, because appliances that contain or previously contained Freon are prohibited in our containers. Call us before you load one and we will point you toward the right disposal route.
Mention the full scope when you call (the number of containers, the site, and how long you will need them) and we will put together an estimate for the whole job.
Pick the size that fits your project
The right dumpster size keeps your project efficient, your budget predictable and your site organized. Whether you are comparing a 10-yard for a weekend cleanout or a 20-yard for a full renovation, describe the job and we will recommend the right fit.
