Buy a New 14-Yard Roll-Off Dumpster — Canada-Wide Delivery

The mid-compact workhorse for full-room renovations.

A 14 yard bin rental is the dumpster size most Canadian homeowners actually need. This 14 yard roll-off dumpster swallows a full kitchen tear-out or a packed garage clear-out while staying narrow enough for a standard residential driveway, and the rear walk-in door lets you wheel heavy debris straight in instead of lifting it over the side.

At 16 ft long and 4.5 ft high it handles about four pickup-truck loads with a 2-tonne disposal allowance. It’s the go-to for kitchen and bathroom renovations, roofing tear-offs on a typical bungalow, and full basement or estate clean-outs.

Same-day delivery is available in 60 cities when you order before 11 AM, and the bin rides on pinewood runners to protect your driveway. One flat CAD rate covers delivery, the rental window, and pickup — add color or branding if you want it dressed for a job site.

What actually fits in a 14-yard dumpster

The 14-yard is the size most Canadian homeowners actually need. It swallows a full kitchen tear-out — cabinets, counters, flooring, and drywall — or a complete garage and basement clear-out, roughly four pickup-truck loads. The rear walk-in door is the difference-maker: you wheel a loaded wheelbarrow straight in instead of hoisting debris over a 4.5-foot wall.

It is also the default for a roofing tear-off on a typical bungalow. One layer of asphalt shingles off an average roof lands comfortably inside both the volume and the 2-tonne weight allowance, which is why roofers book this size more than any other.

Weight limits and the heavy-material rule

Two tonnes of disposal are built into the flat rate. For mixed renovation debris that is plenty — drywall, lumber, and old fixtures run out of space first. Shingles, by contrast, are deceptively heavy: a full bin of tear-off can approach the cap, so for a large or multi-layer roof we may recommend splitting the load or moving up a size.

Clean concrete, brick, and dirt should stay in a smaller bin where the weight is easier to quote. Tell dispatch the material at booking and the tonnage is priced upfront — there is never a mystery overage line at pickup.

14-yard vs 20-yard: how to choose

Stay with the 14-yard for a single major room or one roof. Move to the 20-yard once you are gutting a whole home, running several rooms at once, or working as a crew that fills a bin in a day or two — the 20 holds about 50% more without taking much extra space on the driveway.

Permits, placement, and delivery across Canada

On private property the 14-yard needs no permit; on a public street it does, and the rule varies by municipality. We flag the requirement at booking and can pull the permit for you with notice. Delivery covers 60 cities with bilingual dispatch, pinewood runners to protect your surface, and same-day placement when ordered before 11 AM local.

What can’t go in the bin

A few materials are banned from every roll-off in Canada — including this 14-yard — no matter how much room is left in the bin. Tell dispatch up front and we route restricted items to the right facility instead of charging a contamination fee at the scale.

• Hazardous waste — paint, solvents, oils, fuels, and asbestos
• Tires, propane tanks, and pressurized cylinders
• Batteries and electronics with refrigerant or lithium cells
• Liquids, wet paint, and uncured concrete slurry
• Medical, biological, or radioactive material
