You’ve probably put a lot of thought into what type of materials you want to use as you plan your roofing project, and whether you’ll have to tear off old layers of roofing and how much all of that will cost. In fact, you’ve probably requested multiple bids from trusted contractors in your area. However, have you considered what type of dumpster you’ll need for all the debris that a roofing project generates?

The first step is to figure out what type of shingles you have on your roof and whether or not they will come off before your new roofing system is installed. That matters, because some shingle types are heavier than others and dumpsters, while categorized in cubic yards, have a weight limit.

Red Dog Dumpsters will deliver you a 10 yd dumpster, which holds 20 square of a single layer roof and carries a 7000lb weight limit. We strive to prevent overweight containers that are unsafe to transport as well as the fees that are affiliated with an overweight dumpster. It’s important to remember that you can not fill the dumpster with roofing material because the dumpster will be overweight, you need to measure capacity at the 20 square area. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

As always, thank you for choosing Red Dog Dumpsters.
