Jobsite Roll-off Containers for General Contractors
Our heavy-duty fleet manages 20-, 30-, and 40-yard roll-offs across Palo Alto and Santa Clara. These units feature reinforced steel sidewalls, walk-in rear swing doors, and steel bottom rollers for easy loading by framers, roofers, and demo crews. We set every container on driveway boards to protect your pavement; call (650) 910-3823 for contractor pricing and tonnage rates on multi-phase hauling agreements.
20-yard construction roll-off
The 20-Yard Roll-Off measures 20 ft long, 7 ft wide, and 4 ft tall, holding up to 2 tons of debris.
A 20-yard roll-off serves kitchen and bath remodels, single-room demo, and small framing jobs in Palo Alto.
30-yard construction roll-off
The 30-yard roll-off runs 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 6 feet tall, with about 4 tons of debris included.
The 30-yard container handles whole-house remodels, additions, and new-build framing, stacking bulky drywall and lumber without a problem.
40-yard construction roll-off
The 40-yard roll-off stretches 22 feet long by 8 feet wide and stands 8 feet tall, with about 5 tons of debris included.
Sized for commercial builds, large tear-outs, and multi-phase jobs, the 40-yard container is the largest roll-off we carry.
Construction Debris, Drywall, Lumber Acceptance
Our construction roll-off containers accept the full range of mixed C&D debris: framing lumber, drywall, plaster, subfloor, insulation, packaging, pallets, and light metals. Material is sorted at the Palo Alto transfer station to maximize recovery — contractors on active sites often manage these through commercial recurring hauling agreements. Review the EPA construction debris recycling guidance for proper waste stream management. Call (650) 910-3823.

Concrete, Brick, and Asphalt Heavy-debris Pricing
Dense materials need the right container. Our reinforced-steel lowboy roll-offs handle concrete slab tear-out, brick demo, asphalt millings, and clean dirt loads up to 10,000 pounds in a single haul. The low 2-to-3-foot side walls let skid steers and wheelbarrows load over the rim safely without pushing past USDOT truck weight limits on Palo Alto routes.
Heavy-debris jobs run on weight tickets from the scale house, not on the yard; the cleanest loads — with no mixed wood, drywall, or trash — earn the lowest per-ton rate, and the rest are billed by the tonnage. I size your container and dispatch the dumpster after talking to the site super.
Tonnage Limits and Weight Overage Policy
Every roll-off arrives with an included tonnage allowance: additional weight is billed at a transparent per-ton rate based on the scale-house ticket. Your upfront quote lists the cap by container size—which keeps costs clear. Heavy shingles from a roofing tear-off jobsite containers require separate service; otherwise, the weight eats your mixed-debris allowance. We track load weight when the truck weighs in.

On-site Swap-out and Dispatch Coordination
Long-term jobs run on a swap rhythm; text or call dispatch when the container is full — we will roll a fresh roll-off to the same staging pad the same or next business day across the Palo Alto metro and Santa Clara.
Step 1
Text dispatch when full
Site supers text the dispatcher a photo and the container number — no portal logins, no ticketing.
Step 2
Same- or next-day swap
We haul the full container and drop an empty one on the same staging pad so the crew never loses a loading hour.
Step 3
Weekend dispatch available
Saturday pulls keep Monday starts clean; coordinate Friday afternoon for weekend turns.
