A 20 yard roll-off dumpster measures about 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4.5 feet tall, holding roughly 20 cubic yards of debris. For Nashville homeowners and contractors, daily rental for a roll-off dumpster rental this size runs between $51 and $112, per our pricing data.
Dumpster dimensions on a 20 yard unit land close to 22 feet by 8 feet by 4.5 feet, which is why it handles a mid-size cleanout or a roofing tear-off without crowding a driveway. This 20 yard dumpster size sits between the smaller 10 yard dumpster rental and the larger 30 yard dumpster rental, and it is the most requested size for kitchen remodels around Nashville. Full dumpster sizes and measurements for every unit, including this one, are laid out on our dumpster sizes and dimensions page. Placement matters as much as size: the truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind it to set the container down safely, so check driveway length and overhead wires before booking.

Delivery is billed separately, and a weekend rate for short jobs is also available. Full breakdowns by term live on our dumpster rental cost and 20 yard dumpster rental pages, and if you are unsure which size fits your job, our general dumpster rental cost guide compares all sizes side by side. Nashville jobs near Berry Hill, 4.4 miles south, or Oak Hill, 9.3 miles south, run the same rate bands since delivery zones overlap.
No. Certain materials are barred from any roll-off, and loading past the fill line or exceeding the weight limit brings extra charges. Nashville Porta Pros follows local disposal rules, and our what cannot go in a dumpster page lists the specifics, while dumpster weight limits covers tonnage caps for a 20 yard trash dumpster. Construction debris, shingles, drywall and yard waste are typical loads; paint, tires, batteries and anything hazardous are not. If your project also needs permit clearance to sit in a Nashville right of way, review our dumpster permit requirements page before delivery day, since placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city.
That depends on where the container sits. A dumpster placed entirely on private property, like a driveway, usually needs no city sign-off, but street or sidewalk placement in Nashville needs confirming with the city, and we name no specific rule here because it varies by address. Our dumpster permit requirements page walks through what to check before delivery. Construction sites also have separate obligations: OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets toilet ratios for crews on site, a detail covered fully on our construction site services and construction dumpster rental pages, since dumpsters and portable restrooms often get ordered together for the same job.
Most Nashville rentals run by the day, week, or month, matching the price table above. Weekly rentals suit a full remodel, while a single day covers a quick garage cleanout. Longer jobs, like a home renovation, often use our home renovation porta potty service alongside the dumpster.
A 20 yard unit fits a kitchen remodel or roof job; a 30 yard, detailed on our 30 yard dumpster rental page, suits whole-home cleanouts or new construction. Both share the same 60 foot clearance rule for delivery trucks.
Yes, and many Nashville contractors do. Pairing a standard porta potty rental with a roll-off keeps a job site compliant with OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) toilet ratios while debris gets hauled separately.
