Residential Dumpster Rental in Columbia, SC

Roll-off dumpsters for home cleanouts, garage and basement clear-outs, attic projects, and DIY remodels. Driveway-friendly sizes with swinging back doors so you walk waste in.

Two sizes cover most homes

Most residential projects fit a 15 yard or a 30 yard. The 15 is the right call for a single-room cleanout, a garage, or a small bathroom remodel. The 30 covers a whole-house clean-out, a kitchen redo, or a roof tear-off on most South Carolina homes.

Every container fits in a standard residential driveway. The swinging back doors mean you walk in rather than heave over the side — easier on your back and easier on what you're throwing away if any of it is going to a thrift store first.

Residential is one slice of our roll-off dumpster rental in Columbia, SC — same trucks, same flat-rate pricing, same swinging back doors.

Driveway sizing

A 15 yard roll-off sits roughly 14 feet long by 8 feet wide and clears most home driveways with room to walk around it. The 30 yard is longer — about 22 feet — and may need to sit toward the street end of the driveway depending on slope.

We'll talk through where the container goes when you book. If a tree limb or a power line is in the way, we'll work around it.

Common residential projects

Whole-house cleanouts after a move, an estate, or a serious declutter. Kitchen and bathroom remodels — drywall, cabinetry, tile, old appliances (note: refrigerators have to be drained; see the prohibited items page). Garage and attic clear-outs. Re-roofing projects. Yard cleanups after storm damage.

If you're not sure which size fits, the rough rule is: half of a two-car garage filled to chest height is a 15 yard. A whole garage or a full kitchen tear-out is a 30. We're happy to size it on the phone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I get to keep it?

Standard rental periods are long. Most residential customers finish in 3 to 7 days. If you need more time, just call — we don't run a tight clock as long as we know.

Will it fit in my driveway?

A 15 yard fits virtually any driveway. A 30 yard fits most. If you have a particularly short driveway or a tight street, mention it when you call and we'll plan placement.

Can I put a mattress in?

Mattresses are on our prohibited list — separate disposal requirement. Same with tires, batteries, appliances containing refrigerant, and household chemicals. See the full prohibited items list before you load.
