Shingle bins delivered before tear-off starts

Roofers need the bin on site at 7 a.m. and gone the same day the job wraps. That's how we run it.

How we run it for roofing companies

How many squares fit in a 20-yard

For asphalt shingles, plan on a 20-yard handling roughly 25 to 30 squares of single-layer tear-off. That's a comfortable fit for most single-story ramblers and split-levels in Sandy, Murray, Taylorsville, and Kearns. A two-layer tear-off halves that: 12 to 15 squares per bin. A big two-story on the Holladay or Cottonwood Heights bench with two layers of architectural shingles will need a swap mid-job, and it's better to plan it than to call it in at 2 p.m. with the crew standing on a full bin. Tell us the square count and layer count when you book and we'll size and schedule the swap up front.

Weight, and why shingles are different

Shingles are the heaviest common load we haul by volume. A square of three-tab weighs around 200 to 250 pounds; architectural runs heavier. Twenty squares of single-layer three-tab runs about three tons, so a full 20-yard of shingles will go past the 2 included tons. That's not a problem; it's just math, and we'd rather you know it up front. It's $55/ton over in commercial accounts, straight from the landfill scale ticket and attached to the invoice. If you want a predictable number for the homeowner, ask us for a per-square estimate before the job and we'll give you one.

Placement before tear-off

Most roofers book the bin for the afternoon before the job so it's on site at 7 a.m. We stage it tight to the house on the side the crew will drop from, with boards under both rails when needed. If the driveway is steep, send a photo and we'll confirm the truck can retrieve it safely. The bin has a rear door, so a crew can wheelbarrow in from ground level instead of throwing over the side. Street placement is possible in most cities with a permit, but the driveway is faster and needs none.

Storm response

After a wind or hail event, the roofers who already have accounts with us get first call on containers. If you run regular jobs, set up the account now so the paperwork isn't in the way when the phone starts ringing. Net 30, and the contractor rate for crews running regular jobs with us.

Roofing Companies questions

How many squares fit in a 20-yard dumpster?

As a rule of thumb, a 20-yard bin handles a single-layer tear-off of roughly 25 to 30 squares of asphalt shingles. Two-layer roofs or heavier materials fill it faster; tell us the roof size and layers and we'll size it right.

Can you deliver the day before the job?

Yes. Most roofers book the bin for the afternoon before tear-off so it's ready first thing.
