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_circleKitchen remodels
- 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 Pittsburg 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.

Pittsburg builds in layers: early-1900s bungalows getting repiped in Old Town, roofs coming off along the Railroad Avenue corridor, and builder punch-list debris rolling out of the San Marco hillsides above Highway 4. BookingDumpsters puts a roll-off on driveways all over the 94565 — Marina Park by the waterfront, Highlands Ranch off Kirker Pass, Los Medanos near the college — and the whole order happens online in about a minute, so nobody trades voicemails with a dispatcher.
Dumpster rules & permits in Pittsburg
One ZIP, two governments — Pittsburg's dumpster rules come with a twist most cities don't have. Here's the rundown:
gavelKeep it on your own Pittsburg lot: zero paperwork
A roll-off sitting fully on your driveway, yard, or jobsite needs nothing from the city — and in Pittsburg that also sidesteps the city-vs-county question entirely (see below).
gavelPittsburg streets: Encroachment Permit via Accela
Anything in the public right-of-way needs an Encroachment Permit under Pittsburg Municipal Code Chapter 12.01, handled by the Public Works Engineering Division (65 Civic Avenue) through the city's Accela Citizen Access online portal. Your application describes the exact spot, dimensions, and how long the box stays — and contractors working under an engineering permit also need a Pittsburg business license.
gavelOld Town wasn't built for roll-off trucks
The historic blocks downtown date to the early 1900s, and the streets show it — narrow, with overhead lines. The delivery truck wants about 60 feet of straight approach and 23 feet of clearance up top, so on Old Town and Railroad Avenue jobs, walk the drop spot first.
gavelPermitted work means 65% of debris gets recycled
CALGreen, California's building code, requires Pittsburg projects with a building permit to divert at least 65% of construction and demolition debris from landfill. Providers on our platform haul to certified facilities, so that box is checked.
gavelBay Point is in the 94565 — but it isn't Pittsburg
The 94565 ZIP also covers unincorporated Bay Point (called West Pittsburg until 1993), where the streets belong to the county. Street placement there goes through Contra Costa County Public Works, not Pittsburg City Hall. Driveway placement skips the whole jurisdiction puzzle.
Rules and fees are set by the City of Pittsburg and can change — always confirm current requirements with the city before placing a container in the public right-of-way.
