Roofing dumpsters sized for shingle weight

Roofing debris is one of the heaviest loads that goes into a dumpster. A roofing "square" is 100 square feet, and one layer of asphalt shingles weighs roughly 250 to 400 pounds per square. That means a roof tear-off usually fills a dumpster by weight long before it fills by volume.

Snappy delivers 15, 20 and 30-yard roll-off dumpsters for shingle tear-offs across Monroe, Union County and the Greater Charlotte area, set where your crew can drop debris straight off the eave. Every rental includes delivery, pickup, 7 days and a weight allowance, so you know the cost before the first shingle comes off.

What size dumpster do I need for a roof?

15-yard roofing dumpster · $425

Includes 1.5 tons (3,000 lbs), roughly 8 to 12 squares of single-layer shingles.

  • Small homes, garages and additions
  • Single-layer tear-offs
  • Porch and shed roofs

20-yard roofing dumpster · $450

Our most-rented size for roofs. Includes 2 tons (4,000 lbs), roughly 10 to 16 squares.

  • Most single-layer residential roofs
  • Shingles plus some rotted decking
  • Room to spare by volume

30-yard roofing dumpster · $650

Includes 3 tons (6,000 lbs), roughly 15 to 24 squares.

  • Large or steep roofs
  • Two-layer tear-offs
  • Roof plus siding or decking

Most single-layer roofs on an average home fit in a 20-yard by volume, but bigger roofs often go over the 2-ton allowance. Weight over the allowance is $95 per ton, billed to the hundredth of a ton, so you only pay for what you actually throw away. Tearing off two layers? Plan on roughly double the weight.

Tips for a smoother roof tear-off

Put it near the drop zone

Tell us which side of the house you are tearing off and we will set the dumpster as close to the eave as access allows. Driveway protection boards are available on request.

Load below the rim

Shingles must stay below the top of the container. An overfilled dumpster can be delayed or charged extra, so call for a swap if you are running out of room.

Tell us about layers and decking

Two layers or a lot of rotted decking changes the right size. Text us the square count and we will size it so you are not paying for a second haul.

Roofing dumpster FAQs

What size dumpster do I need for a roof tear-off?

A 20-yard dumpster handles most single-layer residential roofs by volume. Smaller roofs fit in a 15-yard, and large roofs, two-layer tear-offs or jobs with a lot of decking usually need a 30-yard. Because shingles are heavy, weight often matters more than volume.

How much do roofing shingles weigh?

One layer of asphalt shingles weighs roughly 250 to 400 pounds per roofing square (100 square feet), depending on the shingle type. A 20-square roof can produce 2.5 to 4 tons of debris, so check the weight allowance as well as the size.

How much does a roofing dumpster cost?

A 15-yard is $425 with 1.5 tons included, a 20-yard is $450 with 2 tons and a 30-yard is $650 with 3 tons. Every rental includes delivery, pickup and 7 days. Extra weight is $95 per ton, billed to the hundredth of a ton, and a $2 per one-way mile fuel surcharge applies.

What happens if my roofing debris goes over the weight allowance?

Nothing changes on the job. We weigh the load at the landfill and bill anything over the allowance at $95 per ton, to the hundredth of a ton. For example, 0.42 tons over is $39.90.

Can the dumpster go in my driveway for a roofing job?

Yes. Most roofing dumpsters sit in the driveway as close to the work as access allows. Driveway protection boards are available on request; just ask when you book.

Do you rent roofing dumpsters to contractors?

Yes. Roofers and builders who rent regularly can set up an account for job-site pricing and swaps on active projects. Call or text 704-690-4445 to get started.

Can I get a roofing dumpster the same day?

Yes. Call or text 704-690-4445 by 10 AM and same-day delivery is guaranteed within 30 miles of our Monroe yard. Online orders can be scheduled from the next day on.
