15-Yard Dumpster Rental

The 15-yard is the bin most Fort Collins homeowners actually need but rarely order, because the internet keeps pushing 10s and 20s. A 15 gives you real breathing room over a 10-yard for about the same footprint on the ground, which matters on the tighter driveways in Old Town and the alley-loaded lots around Bucking Horse. It's low enough to walk debris in over the back door on most units, so you're not heaving drywall over a tall wall.

Pick a 15-yard when your project has some bulk but not endless volume: a kitchen or bathroom gut, a single-layer roof tear-off on a smaller home, a full garage or basement clear-out in Rigden Farm or Maple Hill, or a landscaping refresh where you're pulling sod and old shrubs in Registry Ridge. If you're framing an addition, taking a whole house down to studs, or running a multi-week job site, size up to the 20, you'll pay less than renting a 15 twice. If it's just a closet and a couple of old couches, the 10-yard saves you money. The trade-off is simple: too small and you're calling for a second bin, too big and you're paying for air.

Weight is where people get surprised, so here's the plain version: heavy stuff like concrete, dirt, tile, and shingles hits the weight cap long before the bin looks full. If your Warren Farms patio demo or Miramont driveway job is mostly concrete, tell us on the call, we'll flag the weight allowance so there's no overage shock. Lighter mixed debris fills the box, not the scale, so you get the full 15 yards.

Placement in Fort Collins is usually easy in a driveway on the newer streets around Harmony Crossing and The Landings. Curb or street placement near the CSU corridor or the older Old Town blocks can need a right-of-way permit from the city, we'll tell you straight whether your spot needs one before we roll out. We drop on plywood if you want to protect a fresh driveway, and we come back on your schedule.
