Is the 40 Yard the Right Size?

The 40 yard is one of three roll-off sizes WG Waste runs in metro Atlanta. All three share the same 20 foot footprint and differ only in height, so the choice comes down to volume:

20 cubic yards, starts at $450 — 50-70 trash bags, attic cleanouts, light demolition and landscaping junk
30 cubic yards, starts at $525 — 80-100 trash bags, two room remodels, large declutter, moving in or out
40 cubic yards, starts at $645 — 110-130 trash bags, whole home cleanout, large remodeling projects

Getting the Most From a 40 Yard

The 40 yard is for the biggest jobs. It fits a whole-house clear-out after a sale, an estate or foreclosure cleanup, or a gut renovation. It has the tallest walls, so plan how you will get items inside before the truck arrives.

Load in layers

Start with large furniture and mattresses along the walls. Fill the middle with boxes and small items. Finish with light bags on top. Do not climb on the container sides. Ask for help with heavy pieces.

Sorting a big cleanout

Set up three zones in the house: keep, give away, and dumpster. Move old appliances and electronics out together. See appliance disposal and e-waste disposal for what to expect. When you are ready, request a free quote.

Who rents the 40 yard

Property managers, estate representatives, and builders pick this size most. It suits a full remodel schedule with demo, framing, and finish waste in one container. If a project crosses several weeks, tell us your timeline so we can plan the pickup.
