The weather of Indianapolis can be harsh. Winter ice, hail storms, and high winds can cause roof damage that needs to be addressed quickly to protect your central Indiana home. If a new roof is in the works for your property then you’re going to need a way to dispose of the current roofing material.

When planning to order a dumpster for a roofing job the following should be considered:

What type of roofing materials will you be removing? – Some roofing materials are heavier than others and that may play a role in which dumpsters are available for use.

How many squares of shingles are being removed? – Check out the guide below for more details on how many squares of shingles will fit in to each size of dumpster.

Is it a single, double, or triple layer of shingles? – A new layer may have been placed on top of the existing layer.

If you will be hiring a roofing company they will often request that you order a specific size of dumpster or they may include the dumpster as part of their job bid. For homeowners tackling a DIY roofing job on their own the following information is helpful.

Dumpster Guide For Asphalt Shingles
6 yard bin – holds up to 18 squares, single layer
10 yard bin – holds up to 30 squares, single layer
15 yard bin – holds up to 50 squares, single layer
