15 Yard Dumpster Rental in Murfreesboro
The 15-yard dumpster is the middle ground for home projects: 16 feet long, 8 feet wide and 4 feet high, holding four to five pickup-truck loads with a 2-ton weight allowance. It is the size we send for flooring and carpet removal, a deck tear-down, a small roof, a kitchen remodel, or a basement cleanout that has outgrown a 10-yard.
It still fits a standard driveway and is low enough to load over the side without a ramp.
