A 20-yard dumpster holds approximately 60 cubic feet of debris. It's loaded from the back and delivered on a roll-off truck. For reference, that's roughly the equivalent of 6–7 pickup truck loads.

The 20-yard is Tampa's most common size for kitchen/bath remodels and standard single-story roofing. Important Tampa caveat: storm-damaged shingles that have absorbed water weigh significantly more than dry material. A single-story wet shingle tear-off can hit the 3-ton limit faster than expected. If your roof has any storm saturation, consider the 30-yard.
A 20-yard dumpster in Tampa typically costs $320–$480 for a standard 7–10 day rental. Off-season (December–February) rates are often 5–15% lower. Pinellas or Pasco County delivery may add a $25–$65 surcharge.
Most Tampa operators include 3–4 tons in the base price. Overage fees run $55–$80 per ton over the limit. For storm debris or water-damaged materials, weight limits are hit faster than on dry loads — always confirm before booking.
Standard rentals are 7–10 days. Extensions typically cost $10–$20 per day. Ask about extended rates upfront if your project may run longer — it's almost always cheaper than requesting an extension after delivery.
Only if it goes on a public street. Driveway placement requires no permit. Street placement requires a City of Tampa right-of-way permit ($45–$85, 2–5 days to process). Many operators handle it — ask when booking.
