Size a roofing dumpster by squares

Shingles are heavy. Weight, not space, decides the size.

Stout Bros · Odessa, TX

The math

80-lb bundles × 3 per square = 240 lb per square. Check the weight on your own bundle wrapper.

Stout Bros · Odessa, TX

One layer

  • 15-yard: up to about 20 squares
  • 20-yard: up to about 25 squares
  • 30-yard: up to about 33 squares

Stout Bros · Odessa, TX

Two layers?

A second layer doubles the weight. Halve the squares, or plan a swap.
