In a perfect world your roof would last forever. In reality, a good roof will last 20-plus years before it has to be replaced. In some cases, the old roof needs to come off, so the question becomes, “what dumpster size for a roof tear off will work?” The short answer is: it depends on the size of your roof, the type of material and the number of layers coming off.

Most roofs are made of asphalt shingles, but others are cedar or metal. You’ll need to know what materials and how many layers of it are coming off your roof before you know what size dumpster will work for a roof tear off project, as different materials have different weights. Most cities and townships have a limit of two layers of roofing, which means if your new roof will be layer three, you’re going to need a larger dumpster.

You’re planning a project that you know will generate a fair amount of waste. How will you get rid of it?
