If you’re planning a major construction or demolition project in Northwest Denver, you’ll likely generate a significant amount of debris that needs to be disposed of properly. Dumpster rentals are a convenient and efficient way to dispose of large quantities of waste, but it’s important to know what materials are allowed in dumpsters.
Dumpster Types & Sizes
redbox+ Dumpsters of Northwest Denver offers a variety of dumpster sizes and types to meet the needs of any project. We have dumpsters ranging from 20 yards to 40 yards in size, so you can choose the perfect dumpster for your job.
If you’re working on a small residential project, such as a kitchen remodel or bathroom renovation, a 20-yard dumpster may be sufficient. For larger projects, such as a new home construction or commercial renovation, you’ll likely need a larger dumpster, such as a 30-yard or 40-yard model.

Additional Tips
To help reduce the amount of waste that goes to landfills, consider recycling or reusing materials whenever possible. Many organizations, such as Habitat for Humanity, will accept used appliances and furniture. You can also donate unwanted materials to local thrift stores or charities.
To ensure that your dumpster is used efficiently and safely, follow these tips:
- Don’t overfill the dumpster. This can create a safety hazard and make it difficult to transport the dumpster.
- Place heavy items on the bottom of the dumpster. This will help to distribute the weight evenly and prevent the dumpster from tipping over.
- Avoid placing hazardous or toxic materials in the dumpster. These materials should be disposed of properly at a designated facility.
