The 10 yard container in Canton, GA
The 10 yard dumpster is the one we send out most for small jobs around Canton and Holly Springs — a single-room flooring tear-out, a garage that's been collecting junk for a few years, or a load of shingles off a small roof section. It's built low to the ground and short in length, so it tucks into a standard residential driveway without eating up the whole yard.
If you're clearing out a spare bedroom, tackling a small bathroom demo, or hauling brush and limbs after storm cleanup in Waleska or Nelson, this is usually the size that gets the job done without paying for space you won't fill. It's also the easiest size to place on tighter, older driveways in Canton's mill village streets near downtown.
We deliver it out of our yard on P Rickman Industrial Drive just off I-575, so turnaround across Cherokee County is usually same-week.
What fits in a 10 yard dumpster
A 10 yard container holds roughly 50 to 70 kitchen-size trash bags of material, or about 1-2 tons of mixed debris. That's enough for a single-room cleanout, a small deck tear-off, a few hundred square feet of old flooring, or a modest pile of yard waste after trimming trees and clearing brush.
10 yard vs. 15 yard: which one do you need
If you're only clearing one room, one small job site, or doing yard cleanup, the 10 yard is usually enough. Once you're combining two rooms, tackling a garage plus yard debris, or you're not sure how much debris a project will generate, the 15 yard gives you breathing room for not much more in rental cost — and it's a better bet than ordering a 10 yard and needing a second pickup.
Capacity
What actually fits in a 10 yard container
Rough working figures. Weight, not volume, is what stops most loads.
| Material | How much fits |
|---|---|
| Single room cleanout | one bedroom or home office worth of furniture and boxes |
| Small bathroom demo | tub, vanity, tile, and drywall from one bath |
| Roofing debris | up to about 1,500 sq ft of asphalt shingles, single layer |
| Yard waste | brush, limbs, and a few small trees' worth of trimmings |
| Concrete or dirt (small) | a small walkway or patio slab — mind the weight limit |
| Garage cleanout | light-to-moderate accumulation, not a packed two-car garage |

Placing a 10 yard container on a Canton-area property
In Canton's older mill village streets near downtown, driveways and curb space can be tight, and the 10 yard's shorter footprint is usually the easiest size to place without blocking the street. If you're in a newer subdivision in Woodstock or Holly Springs with an HOA, check your covenants — some associations ask that a dumpster sit behind the front setback line or be removed within a set number of days, and the compact size of a 10 yard makes that easier to manage than a longer container.

Answers
10 Yard Dumpster — questions we get asked
How much weight is included with a 10 yard dumpster?
1-2 tons of mixed debris is included in the base rental. If you're loading heavy material like concrete, dirt, or brick, ask us about weight limits before you fill it — those materials add up fast in a small container.
How much driveway space does a 10 yard dumpster need?
Plan on about 22 feet of clear, level run, plus roughly 10-12 feet of width and 23-25 feet of overhead clearance for our hoist truck to place and pick it up.
Will a 10 yard dumpster fit on a Canton mill village lot?
Yes — it's our most compact size and the one we recommend most often for the shorter driveways and tighter street frontage common in Canton's older neighborhoods near downtown.
How long can I keep a 10 yard dumpster?
Call (770) 629-0113 and we'll set a rental period that fits your project timeline.
What if I fill it faster than expected?
Give us a call — we can often swap you into a 15 or 20 yard, or arrange a second pickup, without much delay since we're dispatching out of Canton.
