What Is a Front Load Dumpster Rental?
Commercial trash dumpsters are lidded containers kept near businesses for waste disposal. These dumpsters are perfect for retail stores, community centers, universities and entertainment facilities. Since businesses produce waste on a regular basis, commercial dumpsters must be on-site permanently and emptied regularly.
Front Load Dumpster Sizes to Fit Your Waste Stream
We offer commercial dumpster sizes ranging from 2 to 8 cubic yards. To help visualize how much a dumpster can hold, read the description of each size before ordering one for your business.
2 Yard Dumpsters
The 2 yard dumpster is our smallest commercial dumpster size. With a volume of 2 cubic yards, this bin can hold about 12 large trash bags or four rolling trash bins (96-gallons). We typically recommend this size for regional chain restaurants and offices with fewer than 20 employees.
4 Yard Dumpsters
A 4 yard dumpster is a good fit for small retail stores and medical offices. It holds approximately 4 cubic yards of paper, food waste and other non-hazardous materials. You can typically fit 24 large trash bags or eight rolling garbage cans (96-gallons each) in our 4 yard dumpsters.
6 Yard Dumpsters
The 6 yard dumpster works best for large grocery stores and office parks. You can throw approximately 36 large trash bags or 12 rolling trash cans (96-gallons) in this size container. Its maximum capacity is 6 cubic yards. Unlike the 2 and 4 yard dumpsters, some of our 6 yard containers feature a large sliding door to make waste disposal even easier.
8 Yard Dumpsters
You can typically find our 8 yard dumpsters near large retail shops and warehouses. This size can hold approximately 48 large trash bags or 18 large rolling garbage cans (96-gallons), which equates to 8 cubic yards of waste. Like the 6 yard dumpster, our 8 yard container typically has the option of a sliding door so you can easily load your trash inside.
What Size Commercial Trash Dumpster Should I Get?
Choosing the right front load dumpster for your business depends on four key factors:
1. Debris type — What kind of trash you’re getting rid of.
2. Debris volume — How much trash you throw away daily.
3. Location — Where you’re keeping your commercial trash dumpster.
4. Pickup frequency — How often you’d like your dumpster emptied.

We offer commercial dumpster sizes ranging from 2 to 8 cubic yards. While specific measurements can vary, here are potential dimensions of each size:

Please remember that these are just guidelines. Your exact commercial dumpster dimensions will depend on your location.
2. Which commercial dumpster size is right for my business?
Before getting a commercial trash dumpster, think about how much trash your business generates on a weekly basis. You should also consider the type of debris. Our 2 yard containers are a great fit for small offices, while our 8 yard dumpsters are better suited for large warehouses. We also offer two sizes in between, and your account manager will help you choose one when you call to order.
3. Where should I keep my front load dumpster?
The right placement location depends on the dumpster size you need and how much space you have on-site. We recommend choosing an area that’s far enough away from your business so it doesn’t interfere with daily operations. You should also make sure it’s easily accessible for our trucks. If your business has an entry gate, give us the access code so we can empty your commercial trash dumpster without running into any unnecessary roadblocks.
4. How often will you empty my commercial trash dumpster?
We can empty your front load dumpster as often as six days a week. If you don't need that much service, we also offer weekly and monthly pickup schedules. We'll work with you to schedule the ideal number of pickups to keep your business waste under control. Just tell your account manager how much trash you throw away every week, and we'll take it from there.
