Job site roll-offs for general contractors, subcontractors, and owner-builders across Daviess County — sized for real C&D debris, not an optimistic estimate.
Construction sites in Owensboro generate a different kind of mess than a home cleanout. Concrete chunks, framing lumber, drywall scraps, metal, roofing material, and packaging debris — all heavy, all piling up faster than most people expect. We’ve been servicing general contractors and owner-builders across Daviess County long enough to know what a job site actually needs. A construction dumpster isn’t just a bin — it’s part of your site logistics.
Right-Size for Your Job Type
10 Yard
Small remodels — bathroom gut, kitchen renovation, garage conversion
Covers one phase of a remodel. Light debris, drywall, framing scraps, packaging. Good for jobs in older Owensboro neighborhoods like Griffith Ave or Bon Harbor.
MOST COMMON
20 Yard
Full renovations, additions, commercial tenant buildouts
More runway without mid-job swaps. Handles mixed debris — old materials out, new materials in. Fits most Owensboro driveways and job site staging areas.
30 Yard
New construction framing, full-floor commercial demo
For high-volume jobs on the KY-54 corridor, new builds near Crossgate, or multi-phase commercial work in Owensboro’s East End industrial zone.
Weight, Placement & Swap Scheduling
Weight limits matter on concrete jobs. A 10-yard container filled with concrete exceeds standard weight allowances fast — sometimes after just a few cubic yards. If your job involves significant masonry demolition, tell us upfront. We’ll recommend a smaller container with more frequent swaps or a weight-adjusted rate. Loading a 20-yard with solid concrete and expecting standard pricing is how you end up with overage fees that eat your margin.
Placement in Owensboro’s tight spots. Infill lots near Downtown, older blocks off Parrish Avenue, and commercial sites along KY-54 all have different constraints. Street placement in city right-of-way typically requires a permit — we walk you through the process. We confirm gate clearance and surface type before the truck pulls in so there are no surprises on delivery day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size dumpster do I need for a construction job?
Most residential construction projects use a 20 yard dumpster. Larger ground-up builds, slab pours, or multi-trade remodels often need a 30 yard. If you’re unsure, check our size guide or call us and describe the scope — we’ll size it right so you don’t pay for space you don’t need.
Can I put concrete, brick, or asphalt in the dumpster?
Yes, but heavy materials like concrete and masonry must go in a 10 yard bin only due to weight limits. Mixing heavy debris into a 20 or 30 yard bin can create overages or make the load non-transportable. Keep it separated and we handle the rest.
How close to my work zone can you place the dumpster?
We can drop the bin within easy wheelbarrow distance of most work zones. For tight lots or active job sites, let us know in advance and we’ll coordinate the best drop angle. We use flat-bed roll-off trucks that have flexible placement options.
What’s not allowed in a construction dumpster?
Hazardous materials — including asbestos, lead paint debris, chemicals, and fuel tanks — are prohibited. Tires, appliances containing refrigerants, and wet paint cans also cannot go in. When in doubt, call us and we’ll clarify what’s accepted at the Daviess County landfill.
Can I keep the dumpster on site for the full project duration?
Absolutely. We offer flexible multi-week rentals for ongoing construction projects. You can extend your rental period at any time — just let us know before your scheduled pickup date and we’ll adjust. No complicated contracts, no surprises. See our Owensboro pricing guide for current rates.
