Dumpster sizes
Dumpster sizes for Brevard County projects
Dumpster sizes at Brevard Binworks run from a smaller container for tidy household jobs up to larger ones for big cleanouts and building work. Each size has its own page on this site, and every page speaks in general terms. Exact dimensions, weight limits, prices and rental periods are not listed here, because they depend on the job and are confirmed when you call.
Choosing well saves a second trip and avoids paying for space you never use. The right container depends on what you are throwing away, how heavy it is, and where the container can sit. Our team does the delivering and hauling itself, so the person you talk to knows how the truck works on local driveways and streets.

How our range is laid out
We rent five container sizes, named by the yard figure: the 10 yard, 15 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard and 40 yard. The numbers climb from a compact container for one room or one weekend to a large one for demolition and major construction.
Think of the names as a ladder rather than a promise. A smaller step suits a focused job with a clear end point. A larger step gives room for mixed debris, bulky items and projects that run over several days. The page for each step lists typical jobs and the questions worth asking yourself.
Questions that point to a size
Answer these before you phone and the conversation moves quickly.
- What is the main material: furniture, drywall, shingles, branches, concrete or a mix?
- Is the debris light and bulky, or dense and heavy?
- Will the project finish in one push, or build up over days?
- How much open, level space is there for the container and the truck?
- Does the street or neighborhood need a permit or association approval?
From project to container
Describe the job
Tell us what you are clearing and in which Melbourne-area town. Mention anything large, such as appliances or a deck.
Weigh the material
Heavy debris such as masonry limits how full a container can safely be. We will explain what that means for your job.
Check the spot
We talk through your driveway or lot, overhead wires and the path the truck needs.
Confirm by phone
Pricing, rental period and the container itself are confirmed when you call (321) 341-3232 or use LIVE CHAT.
Why weight matters as much as volume
A container can look half empty and still be carrying too much. Concrete, brick, soil and roofing material are dense, so a smaller container is often the sensible pick for those loads even when the pile looks modest. Light but bulky loads, like old furniture and cardboard, fill a container by volume long before weight becomes the concern.
If your project mixes both kinds, say so. We would rather hear about the pallet of tile at the start than discover it at pickup. For more on reading a load, see our guide to choosing a container for your load.
What never goes in any size
No container size changes the rules about hazardous material. Under Florida DEP guidance, hazardous waste cannot go in local landfills, so a dumpster cannot take it. Paint, chemicals, batteries and asbestos stay out, and used oil filters are banned from landfills in Florida and must be recycled. Ask your local disposal program how to handle them before delivery day.

Common questions, answered
Quick answers about sizes, loading and scheduling, so you know what to expect when you call.
Which dumpster size is the most common choice?
There is no single answer, because the right container depends on your job. Brevard Binworks matches the size to the material, its weight and your available space. Describe the project when you call (321) 341-3232 and we will recommend a step in the range, then confirm all details with you.
Do you list dimensions and weight limits for each size?
We do not publish dimensions or weight limits on this site. Brevard Binworks confirms them when you call, since they depend on the container assigned and the material you are loading. Call (321) 341-3232 or use LIVE CHAT and ask for the specifics of the size you are considering.
Can I swap to a different size after ordering?
Possibly, but it depends on availability and timing. Tell Brevard Binworks as early as you can if your estimate changes, and our team will explain what is possible. Calling (321) 341-3232 before delivery gives the most flexibility.
Does the size affect whether I need a permit?
It can, mostly through where the container sits. A container on your own driveway is treated differently from one on a street. Brevard Binworks cannot decide this for you, so check with your city or county before delivery, and we can talk through the placement.
