Dumpster rental for kitchen and bathroom remodels
Remodels create debris in waves: demolition fills most of the box in the first couple of days, then trim, packaging and leftovers trickle in for weeks. A dumpster on site means the old cabinets go straight out the door instead of piling up in the garage.
Sizes that fit kitchen or bath remodel jobs
Most kitchen or bath remodel jobs land between a 10 and a 20-yard. Our usual starting point is the 15-yard.

Which size for a remodel?
A single bathroom (tile, tub or shower surround, vanity, toilet, drywall) usually fits a 10-yard. A kitchen with cabinets, counters, flooring and drywall typically fits a 15. If you are doing both, or opening walls between rooms, go 20.
Tile and stone counters are heavy. If you are removing a lot of tile or a mortar-bed shower, mention it so the weight allowance matches.
Timing the rental
Book delivery for the day before demo starts. Most remodels fill the box in the first week; a 14-day rental covers demo plus the first round of install packaging.
If the job runs long, extra days are usually billed daily. Tell us and we will arrange it with the hauler.
Contractor or DIY, it works the same
Many homeowners book the dumpster themselves to save the markup a contractor adds. If your contractor is handling the job, they can request the quote with your address.
Debris type: construction or remodel
Drywall, lumber, cabinets, countertops, flooring, fixtures, small amounts of tile.
Some items can't go in any dumpster: paint, tires, batteries, appliances with refrigerant and hazardous chemicals among them. See the full list.
Kitchen or bath remodel questions
Can old cabinets and countertops go in?
Yes. Wood cabinets, laminate and solid-surface counters are standard remodel debris. Stone counters are fine too, just heavy, so mention them.
What about the old dishwasher or range?
Appliances without refrigerant (dishwasher, range, washer) are accepted by many haulers, sometimes with a small fee. Refrigerators, freezers and AC units are not, because of the refrigerant.
Is a 10-yard big enough for a bathroom?
For one bathroom, almost always. Cast iron tubs are heavy but still fit within a typical 10-yard weight allowance.
