Dumpster Sizes Available in Claymont
A dump trailer handles most Claymont cleanouts. Bigger remodels move up to a 20-yard roll-off. Every Claymont rental is either our 14-foot dump trailer or a 10- to 40-yard roll-off, and each comes with a set weight allowance.
14-Ft Dump Trailer
A 14-foot hydraulic dump box on a tandem-axle trailer; holds roughly as much as a 10- to 15-yard roll-off.
The dump trailer is easier to place precisely than a roll-off and rides on a tandem axle, so it leaves no rail marks. It's ideal for cleanouts, landscaping debris and single-room remodels.
10-Yard Dumpster
About 12 ft long, 8 ft wide and 3.5 ft high; holds roughly three to four pickup loads.
The pick for dense debris like plaster, concrete or dirt. Weight fills it before volume does.
15-Yard Dumpster
About 16 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4 ft high; holds roughly five to six pickup loads.
A step up in capacity without much more length. It fits a kitchen remodel with cabinets and countertops, or a whole-house carpet replacement in the streets near Naamans Road.
20-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4.5 ft high; holds roughly six to eight pickup loads.
The most-rented roll-off size across Wilmington & Northern New Castle County. It holds a full kitchen, a two-car garage cleanout or the tear-off from most single-story roofs.
30-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 6 ft high; holds roughly nine to twelve pickup loads.
For additions, siding jobs and gut renovations in New Castle County, the 30-yard saves you a mid-project swap.
40-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 8 ft high; holds roughly twelve to sixteen pickup loads.
Contractors on commercial sites around Claymont use the 40 for high-volume, lightweight waste like drywall offcuts, packaging and framing scrap.
Which size fits common Claymont projects
| Project | Best fit | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Garage cleanout | 14-ft dump trailer | Shelving, old furniture, boxes and yard tools from a two-car garage fit a 15. |
| Bathroom gut | 14-ft dump trailer | Tile, a tub or shower, vanity and drywall from one bath is dense debris that suits a 10. |
| Single-story roof tear-off | 15-yard roll-off | One layer of shingles on a typical single-story home is heavy, so we size by squares, not volume. |
| Whole-house cleanout | 20-yard roll-off | Furniture, boxes and basement storage from a three- or four-bedroom home usually fits a 20. |
| Multi-room renovation | 30-yard roll-off | Two or more rooms of drywall, trim, flooring and fixtures call for a 30 so you skip a mid-job swap. |

Types of Waste You Can Put in a Dumpster
Construction Debris
Renovation debris of almost any kind goes in: drywall, lumber, flooring, cabinets, fixtures and roofing. Just keep concrete and dirt in their own small box.
Household Junk
Household cleanouts in Claymont are our bread and butter: old furniture, rugs, boxes and years of garage and attic storage.
Yard Waste
Branches, leaves, grass and landscaping debris are fine. Old fencing, overgrown shrubs and storm-downed limbs are common.
Prohibited items. In New Castle County, hazardous items like paint, chemicals, batteries, tires and asbestos need separate disposal. We'll point you to the right place. The Delaware Solid Waste Authority holds household hazardous waste collection events around the state.
How to keep your Claymont dumpster cost down
- Keep heavy material separate. Concrete, brick, dirt and rock hit the weight limit fast. Put them in their own small container and use a larger one for bulky, light debris.
- Load flat and full. Lay large, flat items on the bottom and fill gaps with smaller debris. Air pockets cost money.
- Break things down. Take apart furniture, cut long boards and flatten boxes. A broken-down couch takes a third of the space.
- Call for pickup promptly. When you're done, call right away so extra days don't add up.
- Pick the right size up front. One correctly sized container is cheaper than a second haul or an overweight charge.
Debris from Claymont goes to the Delaware Solid Waste Authority's Cherry Island Landfill in Wilmington. Disposal costs are built into your price up to the included tonnage, which is why weight matters more than volume.

Choose Your Dumpster Size
Call and describe the job. We'll recommend the right dumpster size for Claymont.
Schedule Dumpster Delivery
Pick your date. We'll drop the trailer or roll-off where you want it on your Claymont property.

Weather in Claymont
Wind off the Delaware River and summer thunderstorms can lift loose debris, so tarp the load when you step away.
Dumpster placement
Most Claymont homes have driveways that fit a dump trailer or a 15-yard roll-off. Placement on a road needs approval from DelDOT and New Castle County first.
Dumpster Permits and Placement Rules in Claymont
Street placement permits
If the container sits on your driveway or other private property in Claymont, you usually don't need a permit. If it has to go on a street, boulevard, alley or sidewalk, approval comes from DelDOT and New Castle County, since most roads outside city and town limits are state-maintained. Ask about the fee, how many days it covers and whether cones or reflectors are required, and have it in hand before delivery day.
HOA and landlord rules
Some Delaware cities post snow emergency routes in winter. If your street is one, keep the container on the driveway, not the street.
What the delivery spot needs
The truck needs a straight approach of about 60 feet, roughly 10 to 12 feet of width and clear overhead space with no low branches, wires or eaves above the drop spot. In winter, the spot and the path to it need to be plowed or shoveled. Leave room for a car to pass on shared driveways, and keep the container clear of mailbox and garbage-cart access. Tell us about gates, trees and slopes on your Claymont property, and we'll confirm the fit before delivery day.
Storms, Seasons and the Best Time to Rent in Claymont
Spring and fall are the busiest months in northern New Castle County, when remodels start and landlords turn units over. Winter is steady with interior work, and summer storms keep tarps busy. Local conditions in Claymont: humid summers, wet winter storms and wind off the Delaware River.
Storms and winter weather
Freeze-thaw cycles crack older driveways. We lay boards under the rails to spread the load, especially on worn asphalt.
Older homes, coast and summer
Summer is short and busy, especially near the water. Book early for June through August, and plan around beach traffic on delivery day.
