The 20-yard dumpster measures about 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4.5 feet tall, holding roughly 8 pickup loads of debris. A 20-yard fits a full garage cleanout in Saddle Rock, a kitchen-and-bath remodel in Meadow Hills, or a mid-size roof tear-off on a Tollgate Crossing home. Its low 4.5-foot walls let you walk heavy items like broken concrete and shingles straight over the side instead of lifting them high.
Choosing the right size comes down to debris volume against driveway space. If a single-room cleanout or a small deck teardown is the job, the 15-yard at $650 is enough and takes a shorter driveway footprint. If a whole-house cleanout or a large roof tear-off is on the list, the 30-yard at $795 gives more room without a second haul. The 20-yard is the middle pick: enough volume for most home renovation projects, still short enough to sit on a standard two-car driveway in Southshore or Aurora Highlands without blocking the garage.
Remember that a dumpster rental is not junk removal, you load the container yourself, and the crew drops it off and hauls it away. The 22-foot length means it needs a clear, flat spot; measure the driveway before booking on tight lots in Hutchinson Heights or Sable Ridge. A dumpster placed on a public street in Aurora may require a right-of-way permit from the City of Aurora, while a dumpster kept entirely on private driveway usually does not. Roofing debris and concrete are dense, so a 20-yard loaded with shingles will hit its weight limit well before it looks full, for a large tear-off near Murphy Creek or Seven Hills, size up to the 30-yard to keep everything in one container.
Booking runs in four plain steps: 1) call (720) 901-5025 with your Aurora address and what you're throwing out; 2) confirm the 20-yard and the drop spot on the driveway or street; 3) receive the container, usually within 1 business day; 4) load it over the rental period and call for pickup when done. The $695 is flat, the total on the phone is the total on the invoice, with no back-end tonnage or fuel add-on.
