15-Yard Dumpster Rental
Mid-size container for kitchen remodels and basement cleanouts. Includes 3 tons of weight, delivery, and pickup -- all in one transparent flat rate price.
What Is a 15-Yard Dumpster?
A 15-yard dumpster is a mid-size roll-off container that bridges the gap between our compact 10-yard and our most popular 20-yard size. Measuring 16 feet long by 8 feet wide by 4 feet high, it offers 50% more capacity than a 10-yard while maintaining a footprint that fits comfortably in residential driveways and tight job sites. The 15 cubic yards of interior space translates to approximately 4.5 pickup truck loads of debris or about 75 standard 33-gallon trash bags.
The 15-yard is a favorite among homeowners tackling medium-sized renovation projects. It is the ideal choice for a kitchen remodel where you are tearing out cabinets, countertops, flooring, and drywall. It handles basement cleanouts, medium bathroom renovations, small roofing jobs (up to 15-20 squares of shingles), and whole-room flooring replacements with ease. Contractors appreciate the 15-yard for single-trade jobs where a 10-yard might be tight but a 20-yard is more than needed.
At 4 feet high, the walls are still low enough for most people to load over the side without climbing in or using a ladder. The rear swing-open door makes it easy to walk in heavy items like old cabinets, appliances, and furniture without lifting them over the walls. The 3 tons of included weight gives you a generous allowance for mixed renovation debris including wood, drywall, tile, and general construction materials.
Every 15-yard dumpster rental from Flat Rate Porta Potty includes free delivery, a 10-day rental period, 3 tons of included weight, and free pickup with disposal. There are no fuel surcharges, no environmental fees, no setup charges, and no surprises on your invoice. The flat rate price you see is the total price you pay, plus applicable Texas sales tax.
