Specifications

The 20 yard at a glance

Dimensions

22 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 4.5 ft high

Capacity

20 cubic yards — about 6 pickup truck loads

Weight included

3–4 tons in the flat rate

Driveway space needed

About 25 ft long × 10 ft wide, plus door swing

Debris needs to stay below the container's top rail on every size so our driver can haul it safely — that holds whether it lands on your driveway or, on the rare job that needs a public right-of-way instead, wherever Manatee County 311 or Bradenton Public Works confirms is allowed.

Is this the one?

When the 20 yard is the right call

If we could keep only one container size, this would be it. At 22 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 4.5 ft high it holds about 6 pickup truck loads with a 3–4 ton allowance built for genuinely mixed debris, and it still fits a normal single-family driveway across Bradenton — from the tighter island lots on Anna Maria Island out to the more open new-build streets around Lakewood Ranch. It's also, alongside the 10 yard, the size we point roofing jobs toward — the weight allowance and the length both suit a fuller tear-off better than anything else on the list, which matters after a Gulf Coast storm season that can leave a roof needing a full replacement rather than a patch.

It's also the right call on a lot of jobs where people reach for a 30. Flooring, siding, drywall and finish debris from a remodel, a whole-home snowbird-season cleanout on a seasonal or vacation property near the beach communities, or a commercial office cleanout tied to Bradenton's own corporate presence all fill a 20's weight allowance before they fill a 30's volume. Whatever the job, remember concrete, dirt, brick and block still belong in a 10 or a 15 — mixing heavy material into a 20 yard load is the fastest way to run over the included weight, and everything still needs to stay below the top rail.

Straight advice: The one to default to when you're genuinely unsure. It's rarely the wrong answer for a remodel or a roof — just keep concrete, dirt, brick and block out of it and route that to a 10 or 15 instead, and keep everything below the top rail.

Ideal for

  • Whole-home cleanouts, including snowbird-season turnovers on Anna Maria Island
  • Flooring and siding replacement
  • Roofing tear-offs — the 20 pairs with the 10 as the two sizes built for the job
  • Drywall and general remodel debris
  • Office and commercial cleanouts around Bradenton
  • Most Bradenton driveways without crowding the garage
  • The default when a job description does not clearly point to a 10, 15 or 30

How it sizes up against the others

Same flat pricing model across all five. The real question is which weight allowance matches your material — heavy debris, roofing, or a construction phase.

Answers

20 Yard Dumpster questions

What are the dimensions of a 20 yard dumpster?

About 22 ft long by 7.5 ft wide by 4.5 ft high. Allow roughly 25 ft of clear driveway length plus about 10 ft of width so the rear doors can swing open.

Is a 20 yard dumpster right for a roofing job?

Often, yes — the 20 is one of the two sizes we point roofing jobs toward, alongside the 10. It suits a fuller tear-off or a two-layer roof better than a 10, where the shingle weight would use up a smaller allowance fast, and after a Gulf Coast storm season a full re-roof is common enough that this is our most-requested size.

Can I put concrete, dirt, brick or block in a 20 yard dumpster?

It's not the right container for that. Heavy, dense material like concrete, dirt, brick and block belongs in a 10 or a 15. If a job has both remodel debris and a slab of concrete coming out, we'll often pair a 20 with a 10 rather than try to fit it all in one box.

Do I need a permit for a 20 yard dumpster in my driveway?

No, if it stays on your own property, which is where nearly every 20 yard delivery lands. A permit only becomes a question if the container has to sit on a public street instead — call Manatee County 311 (311@mymanatee.org) or City of Bradenton Public Works, (941) 932-9400, and they can walk you through it if your job needs one.
