Cleaning out a garage or gutting a small bathroom always seems to produce more junk than you planned for, and hauling it away one truckload at a time turns a weekend project into a month of trips to the transfer station. A giant construction container feels like overkill for a job that size, but doing nothing leaves a pile in your yard that only grows. Trash It Dumpsters LLC handles exactly this problem for homeowners in and around Hickory, NC, with a 15-yard dumpster rental that fits in your driveway and is sized for the kind of project most people take on a few times in their lives.
Trash It Dumpsters LLC is a locally owned and operated company based in Hickory, NC, serving Catawba County and communities within roughly a 50-mile radius. We specialize in short-term roll-off container rentals for residential cleanouts, remodels, and light construction work. Our 15-yard container measures 14 feet long by 8 feet wide by 4 feet tall, rents for $325 over a seven-day period, and includes 1.5 tons of disposal. Delivery typically happens within 24 hours of your call.
Here's the situation almost everyone runs into. You start pulling up old carpet or emptying the attic, and within an hour, you have a mountain of debris in the middle of the garage with nowhere to put it.
The reason it snowballs is that household junk takes up far more room loose than it did when stacked on shelves or nailed down. A single bathroom demo takes up more space than people expect once the vanity, tile, and drywall come out. Your pickup holds maybe 2 cubic yards if you load it carefully, so you're looking at seven or eight round trips, assuming the landfill is open when you have time to go.
Our fix is simple. Call us, tell us what you're working on, and we'll drop a container in your driveway, usually the next day. Everything goes in as you work, at whatever pace suits you, and when the week is up, we come get it. No sorting into truck-sized batches, no borrowing a trailer from your brother-in-law, no weekend spent driving back and forth.
What you end up with is a clean workspace and a finished project on the timeline you actually wanted. The debris leaves in one trip instead of eight, and you spend your Saturday doing the work rather than hauling the results.
Below is a closer look at how our smallest roll-off container works, what it holds, and what it costs.
Our smallest container runs $325 for a full seven days and includes 1.5 tons of material. Keeping it longer costs $10 per day after the first week, and we bill for any weight over the included amount at 5 cents per pound. Pricing can vary a bit depending on how far out you are and what type of debris you're disposing of, so give us a quick call for an exact quote.
The main difference between our two smaller containers is 1 foot in height and half a ton in weight allowance, which may sound minor but matters more than you would think. We usually point people toward our 20-yard container for full kitchen renovations, roofing tear-offs, or anything involving a lot of dense material. When your project sits somewhere between the two sizes, going bigger with us usually costs less than paying overage fees on the smaller one.
We get most orders out within 24 hours of the phone call, though a Saturday evening request will likely land on Monday morning. Our drivers place the container where you want it and set down protective boards first, so your concrete or asphalt doesn't get scuffed. Once your week is over, we swing back through and haul it off without you needing to be home.
Each of our containers measures 14 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4 feet tall, which fits comfortably in a standard two-car driveway with room to spare. We ask for about 60 feet of straight approach so our truck can back in and set the box down cleanly. Low branches and power lines are worth a quick look before delivery day, since we need vertical clearance to lift and lower the container.
Household junk, furniture, carpet, drywall, cabinetry, wood, yard debris, and general remodeling waste all go in without any trouble. We also take shingles, though roofing material is heavy enough that it deserves a conversation first. Anything you're unsure about is worth running by us before delivery day rather than after.
Certain items can't go in our containers, either due to landfill rules or because they damage our equipment. Our list covers tires, brick, block, concrete, oil, wet paint, hazardous materials, and large appliances. Call us if you're unsure about something specific, and we'll tell you straight whether it can ride along.
We see this container used for small home cleanouts, garage and attic clear-outs, bathroom renovations, and modest kitchen remodels. Flooring removal and general yard cleanup work well too, along with smaller roofing jobs, though we'll tell you up front that a tear-off can hit the weight limit before the box is full. Anyone gutting a whole floor of a house or handling a full estate cleanout should let us bring something bigger.
Fifteen cubic yards is roughly six pickup truck loads, which is where the math starts to make sense for most people. That 1.5-ton allowance covers a typical mix of household junk, furniture, drywall, and light construction debris without any trouble. Heavier material like wet lumber, plaster, or dirt adds up faster than expected, so keep an eye on the load if that's what you are throwing away.
Most orders go out the door within 24 hours of your phone call, which means a Tuesday project doesn't have to wait until the weekend. Our dumpster rentals come in three sizes with a full seven-day window, and every rate is published on this site so nobody gets surprised at invoice time.
Short jobs sometimes call for something quicker than a week-long container, and that's where our dump trailer rentals earn their keep. You can rent 12-, 14-, and 20-foot trailers by the day for $200, $250, and $350, respectively, so you pay only for the time you need. With seven trailers in the fleet, availability is rarely an issue around Hickory.
Homeowners tackling a remodel or finally clearing out the garage make up a big chunk of who we serve. Our residential dumpster rentals fit standard driveways, and we place protective boards before dropping off a container to keep your concrete unmarked. Sizing help comes free with the phone call if you're not sure what your project needs.
Real estate agents prepping a property, investors flipping a house, and businesses clearing out a space all call us for the same reason. Commercial dumpster rentals through Trash It Dumpsters LLC are for one-time cleanouts rather than recurring pickup service, which keeps things simple for both parties. Tell us the square footage, and we'll help you land on the right container.
Jobsites generate debris in waves, from framing scrap early on to packaging and offcuts near the end. Our new construction dumpster rentals give builders a place to put it all without stopping work, and containers hold between 1.5 and 3 tons, depending on the size you choose. Swaps are arranged around your build schedule rather than ours.
Trash It Dumpsters LLC started because roofers and remodelers around Hickory couldn't get containers when they needed them, so our contractor dumpster rentals are built around how crews actually work. Longer rental periods, repeat drops, and next-day turnarounds keep shingles and demo waste off the lawn.
Most people call us about a project that sits right in the middle, too big for the small box and not quite construction scale. That's the sweet spot for our 20-yard dumpster rental, which holds about eight pickup loads and 2 tons, for $440 over 7 days. Five feet of wall height means you can pitch material over the side instead of hauling it up a ramp.
Running out of room on day three costs more than the container ever would, especially with a crew standing around. Our 25-yard dumpster rental holds roughly 10 truckloads and 3 tons, which is enough for major renovations and larger roofing jobs without a mid-week swap. Seven days at $550 gives you time to work through the whole thing.
Plenty of companies will drop a box in your driveway, but here's what keeps folks around Hickory calling us back.
We keep rates on our containers and dump trailers reasonable because your budget matters to us as much as it does to you.

We list every rate and extra charge on this website in plain language, so there are no awkward surprises when our invoice arrives.
Fifteen cubic yards come out to roughly six pickup truck loads. That's plenty for a garage cleanout, a bathroom demo, or a small kitchen remodel. Just remember that the 1.5-ton weight limit is often the real ceiling for heavier debris like wet lumber, plaster, or dirt, which can max out the load before the box looks full.
We charge $300 for a full seven days, which includes 1.5 tons of material. If you need it past the first week, we tack on $10 per day, and anything over the weight allowance is charged at 5 cents per pound. Pricing can vary depending on how far out you are and what you are throwing away, so a quick phone call will get you an exact number.
The 20-yard gives you another foot of height and half a ton more weight allowance, which matters more than it sounds like it would. We steer people toward the bigger container for full kitchen renovations, roofing tear-offs, and anything dense or heavy. If your project feels like it sits between the two sizes, going bigger usually costs less than paying overage on the smaller one.
Tires, brick, block, concrete, oil, wet paint, hazardous materials, and large appliances all have to stay out, either because of landfill rules or because of what they do to our equipment. Everything else you would expect from a household project is fair game, including furniture, carpet, drywall, cabinetry, and yard debris. When something has you second-guessing, call us before delivery day, not after.
In most cases, yes. The container measures 14 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4 feet tall, which leaves room to spare in a standard two-car driveway. We do ask for about 60 feet of straight approach so our truck can back in, and it helps to glance up for low branches or power lines beforehand since we need overhead clearance to set the box down.
