Good for
What a 12-yard is usually for
- Yard clean-ups
- A bathroom or small kitchen tear-out
- Garage clean-outs
- Heavy loads — concrete, dirt, brick — to the fill line
Weight usually decides before volume does. A 12-yard full of drywall, roofing or plaster can pass 3 tons well before it looks full. Run your job through the debris weight calculator first.

Two-week rental. Full rate sheet and rules.
Dimensions are approximate outside measurements from Eco Waste’s own size diagrams; box volume (14 × 8 × 3 ÷ 27 = 12.4 yd³) runs above the rated 12 yd³ because of the sloped nose and ribbed walls. Pickup loads assume ≈ 2.5 yd³ per level-full 8-ft bed.
