Best Uses for a 17-Yard Dumpster
When you have a substantial amount of waste that exceeds a standard pickup truck, the 17-yarder is your ideal solution.
Kitchen & Bath Remodels
Easily accommodates cabinets, countertops, sinks, bathtubs, tile backsplashes, and large appliances from full kitchen or primary bathroom upgrades.
Roofing Tear-Offs
A favorite for residential roofing contractors. Comfortably holds up to 2,500–3,000 sq ft of single-layer asphalt shingle disposal within weight allowances.
Multi-Room Decluttering
Great for multi-room spring cleanouts, moving preparation, carpet/flooring tear-outs, and clearing out large double garages or sheds.
Driveway Clearance & Accessibility
At 14 feet long and 5 feet tall, the 17-yard unit gives you extra height and length while keeping a standard footprint. It comes equipped with heavy-duty back doors that swing completely open for walk-in loading.
