Dumpster Sizes Available in Gilbert
Choosing the right dumpster size ensures you have enough capacity without overpaying for unused space. Universal Waste Systems offers four roll-off container sizes to match your Gilbert project needs.
10 Yard Dumpster
Our smallest dumpster measures approximately 14 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, and 3.5 feet tall. It holds up to 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 pounds) and fits roughly 3-4 pickup truck loads of debris.
Perfect for small bathroom remodels, garage cleanouts, minor landscaping projects, and attic decluttering. This compact size fits easily in most Gilbert driveways and is popular for renovating historic downtown Gilbert homes where space is limited.
20 Yard Dumpster
Measuring 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4.5 feet tall, this is our most popular size. Weight capacity reaches 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 pounds), holding approximately 6 pickup truck loads.
Ideal for medium kitchen or bathroom renovations, roof replacements, estate cleanouts, and flooring removal. This versatile size is the top choice for Gilbert’s ranch-style home remodels, handling everything from carpet removal to cabinet demolition with ease.
30 Yard Dumpster
Our large-capacity option measures 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 6 feet tall. It accommodates 3-5 tons (6,000-10,000 pounds) and holds about 9 pickup truck loads of material.
Best for whole-home renovations, new construction debris, major demolition projects, and large-scale landscaping. This size is commonly used for new builds in Gilbert’s developing neighborhoods near Power Ranch and San Tan Ranch.
40 Yard Dumpster
Our largest dumpster measures 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet tall. Weight capacity ranges from 5-6 tons (10,000-12,000 pounds), equivalent to 12 pickup truck loads.
Perfect for commercial construction, large-scale demolition, multi-unit renovations, and industrial cleanouts. Businesses along the Gilbert Road corridor frequently choose this size for major commercial development and property management projects.

Same-Day Dumpster Delivery in Gilbert
Need a dumpster fast? Universal Waste Systems delivers same-day dumpster rentals throughout Gilbert when you order by noon. Our local dispatch team coordinates rapid delivery across all Gilbert zip codes, getting your roll-off container on-site within hours.
How Same-Day Delivery Works
Call (877) 450-5161 before noon for same-day placement. Our team confirms your delivery window, typically within 2-4 hours of your order. We serve the entire Gilbert service area, from downtown Heritage District to Power Ranch and everywhere in between.
Permit Requirements
Dumpsters placed on private property (driveways, yards) typically don’t require permits in Gilbert. However, street placement requires a right-of-way permit from the Gilbert Public Works Department at (480) 503-6400. The department is located at 900 E Juniper Avenue and processes permits during business hours (Monday-Thursday, 7 AM-6 PM).
HOA Considerations for Gilbert Communities
Many Gilbert master-planned communities have specific placement rules. Before delivery, check with your HOA if you live in Power Ranch, Ashton Ranch, Val Vista Lakes, or similar communities. Most HOAs prefer driveway placement over street placement and may require advance notification for dumpster deliveries.
Optimal Placement Tips
Gilbert’s typical lot configurations work well for driveway placement. Ensure 60 feet of straight-line access and 23 feet of overhead clearance (watch for low-hanging tree branches or utility lines). Place dumpsters on flat, hard surfaces away from irrigation systems, and consider using protective boards under the dumpster to prevent driveway scuff marks.
Emergency and Rush Options
Facing an urgent cleanup? Our emergency dumpster rental service handles time-sensitive situations like storm damage, emergency renovations, or last-minute project deadlines. Call our Gilbert dispatch team to discuss rush delivery—we’ll work with your timeline to get you sorted quickly.
What You Can Put in Your Gilbert Dumpster
Understanding what belongs in your dumpster helps you avoid disposal fees and keeps your project running smoothly. Universal Waste Systems accepts most common debris types while following Gilbert and Arizona disposal regulations.
Accepted Materials
Construction debris like wood framing, drywall, siding, shingles, and roofing materials are perfect for roll-off dumpsters. Household junk including furniture, mattresses, non-hazardous appliances, and general clutter can be disposed of easily. Yard waste such as tree branches, brush, soil, sod, and landscaping debris is acceptable. Concrete and asphalt can be placed in dumpsters but come with strict weight restrictions due to their density—discuss heavy materials with our team before loading.
Prohibited Items
Federal and Arizona regulations prohibit certain materials in standard dumpsters. Hazardous materials including paint, chemicals, motor oil, pesticides, and pool chemicals cannot be accepted. Electronics (e-waste) like TVs, computers, and monitors require special recycling. Tires, car batteries, propane tanks, and fluorescent bulbs need alternative disposal methods.
Gilbert Disposal Options for Prohibited Items
Gilbert residents have convenient options for items that can’t go in dumpsters. The Gilbert Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 2224 E Queen Creek Road accepts batteries, e-waste, paint, chemicals, and much more—free for Gilbert residents. The facility operates Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 7:00 AM to 2:30 PM. Call (480) 503-6400 for questions about acceptable items.
The facility even features a free “Swap Shop” where residents can pick up usable household items and recycled paint dropped off by other Gilbert residents. For large appliances with Freon (refrigerators, freezers, AC units), Gilbert offers pickup services for a $16 fee during your bulk trash week or $85 outside your scheduled week—schedule by calling (480) 503-6400.
