Are you planning a home cleanout or a renovation project? A 20-yard dumpster rental gives you plenty of space for bulky items, construction debris, and household junk without taking up too much room on your property. EcoBox Dumpsters delivers 20-yard dumpster rentals in Northeastern Illinois, so you can start your project without delay.
A 20-yard dumpster is one of the most versatile sizes we offer. Measuring about 14 feet long, 7.5 feet wide and 5.5 feet tall, it holds about 8 pickup truck loads, counting a heaped pickup load as about 2.5 cubic yards, and is large enough for big cleanouts while still fitting in most driveways. It suits larger cleanouts across our service area. Check your ZIP code before you order. Dimensions are representative and vary by container within a size. If space or access is limited, contact us before booking and we will confirm the container and the clearance the truck needs.
It’s the right size dumpster for:
Clear bulky items, old furniture, and household junk.
Perfect for multi-room remodels or flooring replacement.
Load branches, brush and other green debris after landscaping projects.
Manage construction debris from small to mid-sized sites. Roofing, concrete, dirt, brick and asphalt go in the 10-yard, whatever the total amount; a larger quantity means more than one load rather than a larger container.
Efficient disposal for retail, office, or property management cleanouts.
Budgeting for your project means understanding the rental cost for your dumpster. Typically, our costs are based on:

Even though the 20-yard is our largest size, it is still a compact container, and we set it down on rollers rather than dragging it to reduce the risk of scrapes and cracks. No heavy-equipment placement is completely risk-free, especially on damaged, thin, soft or recently paved surfaces.

Before you book, we provide clear details about costs, the rental period, the included weight and the per-ton rate beyond it, and any disposal fees, allowing you to plan accurately.

Our 20-yard dumpsters are ideal for a range of projects, including large renovations, construction, and cleanups that generate bulky debris.
