20 yard dumpster specs
About two parking spaces end to end — it still fits most standard driveways, with the box sitting roughly as long as two sedans.

Ideal for

- check_circleRoof tear-offs
- check_circleWhole-garage and basement cleanouts
- check_circleFlooring replacement across a whole home
- check_circleDeck and fence demolition

When to pick a different box
- swap_horizConcrete, dirt, brick, or asphalt — the 2-ton allowance disappears after a few wheelbarrows of concrete; use the 10 Yard Heavy box (flat rate, no weight limit) instead
- swap_horizWhole-home gut renovations or new construction — the volume runs out; that's 30 yard territory
- swap_horizA single-room cleanout — you'd be paying for air; a 10 yard does the job for less
What fits in a 20 yard dumpster
Real-world loads Brentwood customers put in this box — it holds about 6–8 full-size pickup truck loads of debris.
lightbulbTips before you book the 20 yard
- arrow_forwardThis is the 'when in doubt' size: it covers the widest range of projects, which is exactly why it's the most-booked box on the platform.
- arrow_forwardWatch the 2-ton allowance on demo debris — tile, plaster, and roofing are deceptively heavy even when the box looks half empty.
- arrow_forwardThe 4.5 ft walls are still walk-up loadable; save your back by loading heavy items first, flat on the floor of the box.
- arrow_forwardAt 22 ft long, measure your driveway — the box plus the truck's straight-line approach (~60 ft) is what decides the drop spot.

location_on20 Yard delivery across Brentwood
Brentwood built out fast: most of the housing here went up after 1995, which means bare-dirt backyards waiting for landscaping, 2000s kitchens hitting remodel age, and pool digs in the Shadow Lakes and Deer Ridge communities off Balfour Road. Roll-offs land all over the 94513 — new tracts near The Streets of Brentwood and Lone Tree Way, established streets around Downtown City Park, even the u-pick orchards and rural parcels on the city's agricultural edge. Choose your dumpster, reserve it online in a couple of minutes, and nobody waits on hold.
Dumpster rules & permits in Brentwood
Brentwood's stance on dumpsters is refreshingly clear: the city would rather see the box in your driveway than on its streets. Here's how that plays out:
gavelBrentwood wants the box in your driveway anyway
City guidance says containers belong on your own property, out of the right-of-way — and a driveway drop needs zero paperwork. Keep the dumpster fully off the street and sidewalk and there's nothing to file.
gavelCan't avoid the street? Encroachment Permit through Engineering
When street placement is truly unavoidable, submit an Encroachment Permit Application to Brentwood's Engineering Division (forms at brentwoodca.gov/government/engineering/forms). You'll list the container's dimensions and how long it will sit in the right-of-way; the city engineer approves each request case-by-case and can attach conditions.
gavelGive the truck a 60-foot run-up
Delivery trucks want roughly 60 feet of straight approach and 23 feet of clear air overhead. Easy on Brentwood's wide newer streets — trickier in the cul-de-sacs of Shadow Lakes and Deer Ridge or under street trees along Balfour Road, so walk your drop spot first.
gavelPermitted jobs: 65% of debris stays out of the landfill
Pull a building permit in Brentwood and California's CALGreen code kicks in — at least 65% of construction and demolition debris must be diverted. Providers on our platform haul to certified facilities, so the diversion side takes care of itself.
gavelThis is HOA country — clear it first
Most of Brentwood is master-planned: Shadow Lakes and Deer Ridge enforce master-planned community standards (Deer Ridge's golf course has closed, but its HOA rules still apply), parts of Garin Ranch have HOA sections — check whether yours does — and gated 55+ Trilogy at the Vineyards is the strictest of the bunch. Get the association's OK on a driveway dumpster before you book the delivery window.
Rules and fees are set by the City of Brentwood and can change — always confirm current requirements with the city before placing a container in the public right-of-way.
