I’ve worked with 417 dumpster multiple times and have had a great experience always!
A tear-off is the one job where weight matters more than space. Architectural shingles run about 250 pounds per square, and a typical roof is 20 to 40 squares, so even a modest house sheds a few tons of debris. Shingle loads are welcome here, and heavy loads like that are exactly what the 14-yard, starting at $249, is for. Tell us the squares and the layers when you call, and we'll match the dumpster to the job.

On tear-off day the dumpster wants to be as close to the eave as the driveway allows, so the crew is tossing debris straight down instead of wheelbarrowing it across the yard. Our 20-yard and 14-yard share the same 14 by 7 foot footprint, which fits a normal driveway with the cars moved, and the trailer delivery sets the dumpster down exactly where you point.
A second layer of shingles roughly doubles the debris, and older homes around Springfield surprise people with one more layer than anyone knew about. If your roofer finds a hidden layer mid-job, call us. It's better to talk through the extra weight than to bury the dumpster and hope.
A square is 100 square feet of roof, and your roofer's estimate lists how many you have. At around 250 pounds per square for architectural shingles, a 30-square roof is roughly 7,500 pounds of tear-off before felt and flashing. Run your numbers through our shingle weight calculator, it takes about a minute, then call with the result and we'll match the dumpster to the load.
Metal panels weigh a fraction of what asphalt does, but they're long, springy, and awkward, so they eat volume instead of weight. A re-deck adds old plywood or plank decking on top of the shingle load. Both change the sizing conversation, so mention them on the call. If the roof job is part of a bigger remodel,.
Construction Debris Dumpsters
If you're a roofer running jobs across Springfield, Nixa, Ozark, and the rest of the service area, we're a local supplier you can actually get on the phone. Homeowner dumpsters and crew dumpsters are the same dumpsters, but how we work with contractors is covered on the commercial page. Homeowners doing the whole project themselves should start at residential dumpster rentals or the what-size guide.
A square is 100 square feet of roof surface. Not floor space, roof surface, which is why a 1,600 square foot house with a steep pitch and a couple of dormers measures out bigger than the number people expect.
Your roofer's estimate lists the square count already, and a typical house lands somewhere between 20 and 40 of them. Architectural shingles run about 250 pounds a square. Three-tab is lighter, though not by as much as most people hope, and neither one is light once it's in a pile.
A second layer of shingles roughly doubles the tear-off, so a 30-square roof with two layers behaves like a 60-square roof on the scale. Then add felt or ice-and-water shield, flashing, drip edge, ridge vent, and any decking boards that turn out to be soft.
None of that is dramatic on its own and all of it adds up. Put your square count and layer count into the shingle weight calculator, then call with the number and we'll pick the dumpster together.
Set it below the eave on the longest run of roof, as close to the house as the driveway allows. Shingles thrown from a roof travel farther than anyone plans for, and every foot between the eave and the rail turns into debris in the grass.
If the crew is tearing off in sections, the dumpster wants to be under the section coming down first. Move cars, grills, and anything with a windshield well out of range before the first bundle comes off.
Keep a clear tarp path from the ground pile to the dumpster so nobody is carrying loaded tarps around a flower bed. Leave a couple of feet of working room on the side the crew loads from, and check overhead for limbs and service wires where the dumpster lands.
Nails come with a tear-off. Any roofer worth hiring runs a magnetic sweep across the driveway and the yard before they pull out, so ask yours to confirm they do.
How Delivery WorksUsually the 14-yard, the dumpster we run for heavy material. Shingles are dense, so a tear-off runs into the truck's legal weight limit before it runs out of room. That is why we ask for your square count and the number of layers on the phone. Both of our sizes share the same driveway footprint, so the answer is about weight, not where it will fit.
Shingles and old felt soak up water and get noticeably heavier, and the load is weighed when it is hauled. If rain is in the forecast, throwing a tarp over the dumpster overnight keeps the weight where you calculated it. Your roofer is doing the same thing with the exposed deck anyway.
Yes. Normal tear-off debris rides together: shingles, underlayment, flashing, drip edge, ridge vent, and the nails that come with all of it. Rotten decking boards can go in too. What stays out is the usual list, chemicals, fuel, and asbestos, which matters on very old roofs, so ask your roofer what is coming off.
Not if it sits on your own driveway, which is where roofing dumpsters almost always go. A dumpster on a public street is a city question. The dumpster permit guide covers how that works around Springfield.
The roofing crew does. Running a magnetic sweep over the driveway, the lawn, and the beds around the house is standard practice at the end of a tear-off. It is fair to ask your roofer to confirm they do it before they leave the job. Our end of it is the dumpster: we set it down where you want it and haul it off loaded.
