Construction & Roofing Dumpster Rental in Greenville, SC
Job-site debris doesn't wait. Get a construction dumpster delivered to your Greenville job, swapped when it's full, and billed the way your business works.

Roofing dumpsters
Roofing is the job where dumpster size matters most, because shingles are heavy. One layer of asphalt shingles runs about 200 to 250 pounds per roofing square. Use this as a starting point, then confirm with the provider:
| Roof size | Approx. weight (1 layer) | Typical dumpster |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 15 squares | 1.5 to 2 tons | 10 or 15 yard |
| 15 to 25 squares | 2 to 3 tons | 15 or 20 yard |
| 25 to 35 squares | 3 to 4.5 tons | 20 yard, or two smaller loads |
| Two layers | About double | Ask about weight before booking |
Ask for a dumpster set as close to the eave as the driveway allows, so your crew can drop debris straight in. Many roofers put a tarp down along the house to catch nails and stray shingles.
New construction dumpsters
From Greer to Simpsonville, new subdivisions keep going up across Greenville County. Builders typically use 30 yard dumpsters for framing scrap, drywall offcuts, packaging and general job-site waste. Many providers offer:
- Swap service so a full can leaves and an empty one arrives in one trip
- Scheduled swaps on a set day each week
- Multiple dumpsters across a subdivision
- Contractor accounts with invoicing
Remodeling and demolition
Interior demo produces drywall, plaster, cabinets, tile, flooring and fixtures. Plaster and tile are heavy, so a 15 or 20 yard dumpster with a realistic weight allowance often beats a half-full 30 that goes over the limit. For concrete, brick, block or dirt, ask about a dedicated heavy-debris container.
Job-site placement
- The truck needs firm ground. After heavy rain, unpaved lots can be a problem for delivery and pickup.
- Leave about 60 feet of straight approach and about 20 feet of overhead clearance.
- If the dumpster must go on a public street, check permit rules with the City of Greenville or Greenville County first.
Keep your bill clean
- Keep paint, solvents, tires and batteries out (see restricted items).
- Don't overfill. Debris must stay below the top rail.
- Keep neighbors and passersby from using your dumpster. A locking lid or placement near the house helps.
What contractors should have ready when they call
- Job-site address and gate or lockbox details
- Type of debris and an estimate of tonnage
- Start date, expected length of the job, and swap frequency
- Who on site can guide the driver and confirm placement
- Billing contact and PO number if your company uses them
