Roofing Dumpster Rental
Specialized roll-off containers for Fort Lauderdale roofing contractors. From residential shingle tear-offs to commercial flat roof replacements—we size it right and deliver on time.
The Right Dumpster for Every Roofing Project
Roofing projects generate heavy, bulky debris that requires specialized container sizing. Too small, and you'll need costly mid-project swaps. Too large, and you're paying for capacity you don't use. Fort Lauderdale roofers trust us because we know exactly which size container matches your specific roofing project—whether you're tearing off 15 squares of asphalt shingles from a Victoria Park bungalow or replacing a commercial flat roof near Port Everglades.
Florida's weather doesn't wait for anyone. Hurricane season, sudden storms, and aging roofs mean roofing work often happens on tight timelines. We offer same-day delivery throughout Broward County, understand the urgency of storm damage repairs, and can coordinate multiple container swaps for large commercial projects. Our drivers know how to position containers for easy loading from roof level while protecting landscaping and driveways below.

40-Yard: 35+ squares or commercial - Large residential, multi-unit, commercial flat roofs
Types of Roofing Projects We Handle
Asphalt Shingle Tear-Offs
Most common roofing project. Asphalt shingles are heavy—plan for 20-30 yards for average homes. Multiple layers require larger containers.
Heavy - 250-350 lbs per square
Tile Roof Replacement
Concrete or clay tiles are extremely heavy. Requires careful weight management and may need multiple containers or special heavy debris pricing.
Very Heavy - 600-1,000 lbs per square
Metal Roofing Removal
Lighter than shingles but bulky. Metal roofing takes up significant container volume. Can often be recycled—ask about metal recycling discounts.
Light - 50-150 lbs per square
Flat Roof Membrane Removal
Commercial flat roofs with tar, gravel, and membrane. Heavy and messy. Requires proper container sizing and placement for commercial sites.
Variable - depends on buildup
Storm Damage Cleanup
Hurricane and storm damage often means mixed debris—shingles, underlayment, damaged decking, and miscellaneous materials. We offer emergency delivery.

Important Roofing Dumpster Notes
- Weight Limits: Roofing materials are extremely heavy. A 20-yard container filled with shingles can easily exceed weight limits. Discuss your project scope for accurate pricing.
- Driveway Protection: We use protective boards, but heavy roofing loads can still stress driveways. Consider concrete pad or street placement for very heavy projects.
- No Mixing: Keep roofing debris separate from other construction waste when possible. Pure shingle loads may qualify for recycling discounts.
- Permit Requirements: Street placement for roofing projects often requires permits. We can guide you through Fort Lauderdale and Broward County permitting.
