The 30-yard roll-off measures roughly 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 6 feet tall, and holds about 30 cubic yards, the equivalent of around 12 pickup-truck loads. That capacity handles the big jobs: a full roof tear-off on an Upper Arlington two-story, a whole-house cleanout in Bexley, a gutted kitchen-and-bath remodel in Clintonville, or an estate clear-out where a family is emptying decades of belongings. The tall 6-foot walls still let a worker toss debris over the side without a walk-up ramp, which keeps a crew moving on a Hilliard job site.
Size choice comes down to volume versus footprint. A 30-yard fits a roof tear-off or a multi-room renovation where debris piles up fast; a 20-yard at $695 fits a single-room remodel or a moderate cleanout; the 40-yard at $895 is for large construction or commercial jobs with bulky, high-volume debris. The trade-off is real estate: a 22-foot container needs a driveway or approved street space, and on the narrow lanes of German Village or Victorian Village that footprint can be tight, a smaller box may be the practical pick even when the debris seems large. A 30-yard is not junk removal; the container is dropped and you load it, then it gets hauled once you call for pickup.
A dumpster placed on a public street in Columbus generally requires a right-of-way permit from the city, while a container sitting entirely on your own driveway in Worthington, Dublin, or Grandview Heights usually does not. Heavy, dense loads, concrete, brick, dirt, or asphalt, are the one case where a 30-yard is the wrong tool: those materials hit weight limits long before the box fills, so a smaller heavy-debris container is the right call. For light, bulky renovation debris the 30-yard is the workhorse.
How it works is straightforward. First, call (380) 248-7216 with your address and project. Second, pick a drop date and confirm the flat $795. Third, the container arrives on schedule and sits for the rental period. Fourth, you load it at your own pace. Fifth, one call brings the pickup and the debris is hauled to a Franklin County transfer facility, with the price already settled, there is no surprise invoice after the weigh-in.
