40-Yard Dumpster Rental Murfreesboro TN
When your project demands maximum capacity, the 40 yard roll off dumpster is the industry workhorse. This is the go to size for commercial renovations, major demolition, full home remodels, warehouse cleanouts, and large event cleanup throughout Murfreesboro and Rutherford County.
What Is a 40-Yard Dumpster
A 40 yard dumpster holds about 40 cubic yards of debris, which equals:
- Around 12 pickup truck loads
- About 230 to 250 standard trash bags
Typical dimensions are approximately 22 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, and 8 feet tall. Most rentals include a 5 to 6 ton weight allowance depending on debris type.
This size is best for large volume and bulky debris. For heavy materials like concrete, brick, or dirt, a smaller dumpster is usually safer and more cost effective.
Is a 40-Yard Dumpster Right for Your Project?
Choose the 40 yard when your project produces a high volume of mixed or bulky debris and you want to avoid multiple hauls.
| Project Type | Common Debris | Why 40 Yard Works |
|---|---|---|
| Commercial renovations | Drywall, framing, fixtures, racking | Fewer swap outs, more uptime |
| Demolition projects | Mixed debris, lumber, siding, windows | Handles long and bulky material |
| Full home remodels | Cabinets, flooring, doors, furniture | One container for big jobs |
| Warehouse and office cleanouts | Pallets, packaging, furniture | High sides improve safety |
| Large event cleanup | Staging, flooring, temporary structures | Faster site reset |

How Much Weight Can a 40-Yard Dumpster Hold
Most 40 yard dumpsters include 5 to 6 tons. Because this size holds so much volume, dense materials can hit the weight limit before the container looks full.
To avoid overage fees:
- Plan by weight as well as volume
- Load evenly across the container
- Keep debris below the top rail
- Use smaller bins for concrete, dirt, or brick
We will estimate your tonnage before delivery to keep you on budget.
