Dumpster Size for a Roofing Job
Roofers measure in squares. One square is 100 square feet of roof, so a 1,500 square foot roof is 15 squares. Shingles are heavy, so weight decides the size long before space does.
One square of torn off shingles weighs about 200 to 240 lbs for 3 tab and about 240 to 420 lbs for architectural shingles, including nails and felt. The range comes from two shingle makers, IKO and GAF, and real loads vary.
| Roof Size, One Layer of Architectural Shingles | Rough Weight | Suggested Size | Included Weight | Estimated 7-Day Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Squares (About 1,000 Sq Ft) | About 1.2 to 2.1 Tons | 10 or 15 Yard | 2 or 3 Tons | About $300 to $400 |
| 15 Squares (About 1,500 Sq Ft) | About 1.8 to 3.2 Tons | 15 Yard | 3 Tons | About $350 to $400 |
| 20 Squares (About 2,000 Sq Ft) | About 2.4 to 4.2 Tons | 20 Yard | 3 to 4 Tons | About $370 to $430 |
| 25 Squares, Lighter Shingles (About 2,500 Sq Ft) | About 3 to 4 Tons | 20 Yard | 3 to 4 Tons | About $370 to $430 |
| 25 Squares, Heavier Shingles (About 2,500 Sq Ft) | About 4 to 5.3 Tons | Two 15 Yard | 3 Tons Each, 6 Tons Total | About $700 to $800 Total |
| 30 Squares (About 3,000 Sq Ft) | About 3.6 to 6.3 Tons | Two 15 Yard | 3 Tons Each, 6 Tons Total | About $700 to $800 Total |
These are rough planning estimates, not measured data. The costs assume your load stays within the included weight. For loads near the upper end of these estimates, confirm sufficient included weight or budget for overweight charges. Weight over the allowance costs $50 to $55 per ton. For the 30 square row, at the upper estimate, overweight charges may apply. Each container must stay within its approved loading limit. Roofs larger than 30 squares need their own sizing, so call with the measurements. See our dumpster prices and sizes guide for every size and fee.

Why a Bigger Dumpster Is Not Better for Shingles
Placing a Roofing Dumpster at a Saginaw Home
Dumpster or the City Drop Off?
The city of Saginaw runs a free Convenience Station for residents, but its policy excludes roofing shingles. Hauling a full roof yourself would also take several trailer trips. For a tear off, a shingle dumpster rental is usually the simplest choice.
Dumpster Rentals for Roofing Contractors
Roofers who work in Saginaw can book a dumpster for each job with one call. Have the job address, roof squares, number of layers, and start date ready. Each rental includes 7 days, which covers most tear offs, and extra days cost $10 per day. Delivery and pickup run Monday to Friday, so plan a Friday pickup if your crew finishes late in the week. If you run several jobs at once, ask about a second dumpster or a swap when you book. We will confirm timing and cost before you commit. For siding, remodel, or demolition debris on the same job, see our construction dumpster rental page.
What Can Go in a Shingle Dumpster
Ask first: cedar shakes or other roofing mixed with asphalt shingles, and any roof with more than one type of material.
