Dumpster Sizes Available in Peoria
Choosing the right dumpster size ensures you have enough capacity without overpaying for unused space. Here’s what each container offers for your Peoria project.
10-Yard Dumpsters
A 10-yard dumpster typically measures 14 feet long by 7.5 feet wide by 3.5 feet tall. This size holds about 3-4 pickup truck loads with a weight limit of 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 pounds).
Perfect for small bathroom remodels, garage cleanouts, minor landscaping projects, and disposing of heavy materials like concrete or dirt. The compact size fits easily in most driveways.
15-Yard Dumpsters
Standard dimensions are 16 feet long by 7.5 feet wide by 4.5 feet tall. This container holds approximately 4.5 pickup truck loads with a typical weight allowance of 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 pounds).
Best for medium renovations, flooring removal, deck demolition, and single-room remodels. The low walls make tossing debris over the side easy.
20-Yard Dumpsters
Our most popular size measures 22 feet long by 7.5 feet wide by 4 feet tall. Capacity is about 6 pickup truck loads with a 2-3 ton weight limit (4,000-6,000 pounds).
Ideal for large home cleanouts, roof replacements, major landscaping, and multi-room renovations. This versatile size handles most residential projects efficiently.
30-Yard Dumpsters
Dimensions are 22 feet long by 8 feet wide by 6 feet tall. This size accommodates approximately 9-12 pickup truck loads with weight limits typically between 3.5-5 tons (7,000-10,000 pounds).

Peoria Service Areas & Delivery Details
UWS provides comprehensive dumpster rental coverage throughout Peoria and surrounding northwest valley communities. We deliver to all major neighborhoods including Vistancia, Fletcher Heights, Dove Valley Ranch, Westbrook Village, Arrowhead Ranch, Camino A Lago, Parkridge, and The Meadows.
Our service area covers all Peoria zip codes: 85345, 85381, 85382, and 85383. We also serve nearby communities including Sun City, Sun City West, Glendale, Surprise, and El Mirage within our standard delivery radius.
Same-day and next-day delivery options are available based on dumpster availability and your location. We recommend booking 2-3 days in advance during peak spring and summer months to guarantee your preferred delivery date.
Placement Requirements: Dumpsters need 60 feet of clear, level space for safe delivery. We require 23 feet of overhead clearance for standard trucks, though compact trucks are available for tighter spaces with low-hanging branches or wires.
Driveway Protection: We use wood boards under dumpsters when placed on asphalt or concrete driveways to prevent surface damage. This protection is included at no additional cost.
HOA Considerations: Many Peoria master-planned communities have homeowner association rules regarding dumpster placement, duration, and visibility. We recommend checking your HOA guidelines before delivery and can help coordinate street permits if driveway placement isn’t allowed.
Our drivers are familiar with every area of Peoria, from the 83rd Avenue corridor and P83 Entertainment District to northern communities near Lake Pleasant Regional Park.
Accepted Materials & Prohibited Items
Understanding what goes in your dumpster prevents delays, contamination fees, and disposal issues. Here’s your complete guide to acceptable and prohibited materials.
Accepted Materials: Our dumpsters handle most common debris including construction materials (wood, drywall, siding, roofing shingles, doors, windows), household items (furniture, carpeting, toys, décor), appliances without Freon (washers, dryers, water heaters, stoves), yard waste (branches, stumps, sod, soil, leaves), and concrete or asphalt in smaller quantities.
Mixed loads are perfectly acceptable—you don’t need to separate materials.
Prohibited Items: We cannot accept hazardous materials (paint, chemicals, oil, solvents, pesticides), electronics (computers, TVs, printers, phones), tires, appliances with Freon (refrigerators, air conditioners, dehumidifiers), batteries of any type, propane tanks, or medical waste.
Heavy Material Guidelines: Concrete, dirt, brick, and stone are extremely heavy. These materials should only go in 10 or 15-yard dumpsters filled halfway to avoid exceeding weight limits. Roofing shingles are denser than they appear—one roofing square weighs approximately 250-300 pounds, so calculate your roof size carefully when selecting dumpster capacity.
Prohibited Item Disposal: The City of Peoria offers household hazardous waste collection by appointment at (623) 773-7160. For electronics recycling, retailers like Best Buy and Staples accept e-waste, or visit certified local recyclers. Batteries should go to electronic stores or designated drop-off locations—never place them in your dumpster or regular trash.
Common Peoria Dumpster Rental Projects
UWS serves diverse projects across Peoria’s growing residential and commercial landscape. Here are the most common uses we see.
Residential Projects: Kitchen and bathroom remodels top our rental list, typically requiring 15-20 yard containers. Roof replacements are especially common in Arizona’s intense climate—asphalt shingles deteriorate faster under desert sun, making re-roofing a regular need for Peoria homeowners.
Desert landscaping conversions generate substantial green waste as residents replace traditional grass with water-wise xeriscaping. Pool removals and installations create heavy concrete debris requiring 10-yard dumpsters.
Garage cleanouts, estate cleanouts, and downsizing projects fill 15-20 yard containers with accumulated household items. Moving projects also drive steady dumpster demand throughout Peoria’s growing neighborhoods.
Commercial Projects: Peoria’s expanding business corridor along 83rd Avenue drives demand for retail construction and remodeling dumpsters. Property management companies handling multi-family turnover rely on our 20-30 yard containers.
New construction sites throughout Vistancia and northern developments need regular debris removal. Office renovations in established areas generate mixed waste loads requiring flexible scheduling.
Seasonal Patterns: Spring brings a surge of cleaning and renovation projects as temperatures become more comfortable. Pre-monsoon season (June-July) sees increased demand as residents prepare properties and clear potential hazards.
Winter months draw snowbird property maintenance projects throughout Sun City and nearby retirement communities. These seasonal residents often need dumpsters for home updates before or after their Arizona stay.
