Roofing Dumpster Rental in Columbia, SC

Roofing tear-off debris is dense. Shingles, underlayment, and sometimes an old layer or two below. The right size depends on your roof.

Dense debris, sized by your roof

Roofing tear-off debris is dense. It is shingles, underlayment, and sometimes a layer or two of old roofing below.
The right box depends on square footage, how many layers come off, and how much decking gets replaced.

Sizing by roof area

Up to about 1,500 square feet, single layer — a 15 yard handles it.
1,500 to 3,000 square feet single layer, or a smaller multi-layer roof — a 30 yard.
3,000 square feet and up, or a big multi-layer tear-off with decking work — a 40 yard, or a 30 with one swap.
Shingles are heavy. A 30 yard full of shingles is at the weight limit. We quote flat-rate based on your roof size. See all sizes on our roll-off dumpster sizes page.

On-site with your roofing crew

We usually deliver the day before tear-off and pick up the day after the new roof is on.
For a multi-day job we set pickup around the crew's schedule. Tell us the plan and we will work to it.

Roofers and homeowners both

We work with roofing crews and with homeowners doing their own re-roof. Either way, the box shows up on time and the quote holds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size dumpster do I need for a roof tear-off?

A 15 yard handles most single-story roofs up to about 1,500 square feet. Most homes run a 30 yard. Big or multi-layer roofs run a 40. Call and we will size it.

Why does roof size matter so much?

Shingles are heavy. A 30 yard full of shingles is already at the weight limit. We size by roof area so the box holds the load and the price stays flat.

When do you deliver and pick up?

We usually drop the box the day before tear-off and pick it up the day after the new roof is on. For longer jobs we set pickup around your crew.

Do you rent to homeowners doing their own roof?

Yes. Roofing crews and homeowners both. Same flat-rate pricing and the same on-time delivery either way.
