What Is a 40-Yard Dumpster?
A 40-yard dumpster holds 40 cubic yards of debris—about 12 pickup-truck loads or 230–250 standard 33-gallon bags. It offers the most volume and the tallest sidewalls, helping reduce the number of swap-outs on big jobs.
- Typical dimensions: 22′ L × 7.5′ W × 8′ H (external; internal volume = 40 yd³)
- Standard weight allowance:commonly 5–6 tons (varies by debris & service zone)
- Best for:high-volume, bulky debris and sustained commercial or construction work
Note: The 40-yard’s height is great for volume. For dense/heavy debris (concrete, brick, dirt), a 10-yard or a split-load strategy is usually more cost-effective and safer.

How Much Weight Can a 40-Yard Hold?
The 40-yard’s included allowance is typically 5–6 tons, but safe haul capacity depends on debris type and local regulations. Because this bin invites high volume, you can hit tonnage before reaching the fill line with dense materials.
Avoid overages with these tips:
- Plan by weight (tile, plaster, shingles, wet green waste are deceptively heavy)
- Load evenly across the container for transport safety
- Keep below the top rail so the tarp closes securely
- For concrete/soil/brick, book a 10-yard or ask for a split-load plan
We’ll estimate tonnage from your square footage, material list, or demo scope during your quote.
