Dimensions: 15.2′ long x 7.6′ wide x 5.2′ tall
Included weight: 3 tons included
Best for: medium to large remodeling projects, commercial construction, large property cleanups, and lighter bulky items

A 20-yard dumpster can be used for roofing jobs as long as the roofing material is not tile and the load stays within the allowed weight.
30 Yard Dumpster Rental
Dimensions may vary by unit:
17.5′ long x 7.6′ wide x 6.7′ tall
or

A 30-yard dumpster can be used for roofing jobs as long as the roofing material is not tile and the load stays within the allowed weight.
Which Dumpster Size Is Best for Heavy Debris?
For heavy materials such as concrete, brick, block, dirt, and tile roofing debris, the best choices are typically the 10-yard dumpster and the 15-yard dumpster. The 15-yard dumpster is the largest size we recommend for heavy materials. For lighter, bulkier debris, the better fits are typically the 20-yard dumpster and the 30-yard dumpster.
Roofing Dumpster Rental Information
If the roofing material is not tile, all of our dumpster sizes can be used for roofing jobs depending on the square footage, shingle type, and total weight of the material being loaded. If the roofing material is tile, the 15-yard dumpster is the biggest size available.

Why Contractors and Commercial Customers Rent Dumpsters Instead of Making Repeated Dump Runs
For contractors and commercial crews, repeated dump runs cost time, labor, fuel, and productivity. A roll-off dumpster keeps debris contained in one place so your crew can focus on the actual work instead of hauling material back and forth.
- Keeps jobsites cleaner
- Helps improve efficiency
- Reduces multiple dump trips
- Saves labor time
- Makes debris removal easier
- Helps crews stay organized
- Keeps waste centralized
- Supports a safer, cleaner workflow
- Makes demolition and renovation cleanup faster
- Helps commercial properties stay more presentable during projects
Placement, Access & Safety
We can place dumpsters at construction sites, commercial properties, office buildings, retail centers, warehouses, job sites, property management locations, and renovation sites. We also provide driveway protection during placement.
Final placement is always subject to safe access and driver approval. If a requested placement area is unsafe, inaccessible, unstable, or otherwise not suitable for safe delivery, the driver will determine the final placement location. If you need the dumpster placed in the street or public right-of-way, call to discuss placement requirements or permit-related questions.

Commercial and Contractor Dumpster Rental
Contractors and commercial operators need different things from a dumpster provider than homeowners do: containers that arrive when promised, swaps that happen on schedule, a certificate of insurance on file, and invoicing with PO numbers and net terms. Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal delivers commercial roll-off containers across St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park, Seminole, and all of Pinellas County.
Sizing for Commercial Work
- 10 yard – all dense material: concrete, tile, brick, dirt, asphalt, and roofing tear-off
- 15 yard – tight job sites and medium-volume mixed debris
- 20 yard – the default for most residential-scale contracting and remodels
- 30 yard – new construction, additions, gut renovations, and structure demolition
The Weight Reality on Job Sites
Roll-offs have legal weight limits, not just volume limits, because trucks and roads have load caps. On a job producing concrete, tile, or roofing, a 10 yard is the correct container – it will reach weight before it reaches the rim. Framing lumber, drywall, siding, cabinetry, and insulation are what the large boxes are built for. Getting this wrong is the most common source of overage charges on commercial accounts.
How Commercial Accounts Work
1. Set Up Once
We put your certificate of insurance on file, confirm billing, PO, and net terms requirements, and record site-specific details – gate codes, delivery restrictions, and permitted work hours. After that, ordering a container takes one call or email.
2. Delivery on Your Schedule
We coordinate delivery around your trade sequence, not the other way around. Delivery needs roughly 60 feet of straight clearance and clear overhead space. On active sites we place containers where they will not block material deliveries, trade parking, or inspector access.
3. Scheduled Swaps
On projects running weeks, scheduled swaps keep the crew productive and are usually more economical than one oversized container plus overage. Tell us your production rate and we will build a swap cadence around it rather than waiting for you to call in a panic.
4. Sorted Disposal and Documentation
Loads are sorted for recycling – metal to scrap recycling, clean concrete crushed for road base, cardboard to a paper mill, clean wood separated. For projects with waste diversion requirements or green building credits, we can provide documentation of what was diverted.
Permits, Compliance, and Prohibited Materials
Right-of-Way Permits
Containers placed on public streets or right-of-way require a permit from the municipality, and requirements differ across St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park, and the beach communities. On private commercial property, generally no permit is needed – but property management approval usually is, and we can supply the COI they will ask for.
What Cannot Go in a Container
Paint, solvents, waste oil, industrial chemicals, propane and pressurized cylinders, batteries, tires, refrigerant-containing equipment, asbestos, and medical or biohazard waste are all prohibited. Commercial generators of hazardous waste need a licensed hazmat hauler. Refrigerant equipment requires certified recovery – we handle that separately through appliance removal.
Asbestos on Demolition Projects
This one matters. Florida requires an asbestos survey by a licensed inspector before demolition of pre-1981 structures, and asbestos-containing material cannot go in a roll-off under any circumstances. It must be removed by a licensed abatement contractor and disposed of through the proper channel. We will stop a job rather than accept suspect material, and we would rather have that conversation before your container is loaded.
Loading Compliance
Material must stay below the top rail – an overloaded container cannot legally be hauled and will delay your swap. Distribute weight evenly across the floor rather than concentrating it at one end.
Who We Serve
General contractors and remodelers, roofing contractors, demolition contractors, concrete and hardscape crews, landscapers and site clearing operations, restoration companies, commercial property managers (property management services), HOAs and condo associations (HOA services), retail and restaurant operators mid-build-out, and warehouse and industrial facilities (warehouse cleanouts).
Why Contractors Use Us
We are locally owned in Pinellas County, so you reach a decision-maker when a swap needs to move up a day – not a national dispatch queue. You get flat all-in pricing covering delivery, rental, pickup, and disposal to the included weight, COI issued in advance and kept current, invoicing with PO numbers and net terms, reliable swap scheduling, honest size guidance that keeps you out of overage, and no price gouging after storms – which matters when the whole county needs containers at once.
We also provide full-service business junk removal, construction debris removal, and demolition when labor makes more sense than a container.

Commercial Dumpster Rental Frequently Asked Questions
Can you provide a certificate of insurance?
Yes, and we keep it current on file once your account is set up. We can name the property owner, management company, or general contractor. Most Pinellas County commercial sites require a COI before any vendor works on site.
Do you invoice with PO numbers and net terms?
Yes. We set up billing requirements when the account opens and invoice against purchase orders with net terms where your accounting requires it, so project costs reconcile cleanly against the job.
Can you schedule regular container swaps?
Yes. Tell us your production rate and we will build a swap cadence around it rather than waiting for a panicked call. On multi-week projects, scheduled swaps are usually more economical than one oversized container plus overage.
What size should I use for concrete or roofing?
A 10 yard, always. Dense material reaches the legal weight limit long before the container reaches the rim. Getting this wrong is the most common source of overage charges on commercial accounts.
Do I need a permit for the container?
On private commercial property, generally no, though property management approval usually is required and we can supply the COI they will ask for. On a public street or right of way, a municipal permit is required.
Can asbestos material go in a roll-off?
No, under any circumstances. Florida requires an asbestos survey by a licensed inspector before demolition of pre-1981 structures, and abatement must be performed by a licensed contractor with disposal through the proper channel. We will stop a job rather than accept suspect material.
What else is prohibited in the container?
Paint, solvents, waste oil, industrial chemicals, propane and pressurized cylinders, batteries, tires, refrigerant equipment, and medical or biohazard waste. Commercial hazardous waste generators need a licensed hazmat hauler.
Can you provide waste diversion documentation?
Yes. Loads are sorted so metal goes to scrap recycling, clean concrete is crushed for road base, cardboard goes to a paper mill, and clean wood is separated. For projects with diversion requirements or green building credits we document what was diverted.
What if labor makes more sense than a container?
We provide that too. Full-service business junk removal, construction debris removal, and demolition are available when hauling out with a crew beats staging a container. We will tell you honestly which option costs your project less.
