Regular garbage bags A 6-yard dumpster is used most commonly in multi-family housing. It can hold 72 regular garbage bag. A large apartment complex with a capacity for 96 garbage bags will often use an 8-yard dumpster. Large warehouses and manufacturers often use the 10 yard dumpster, which can hold up to 5 tons.
A 10 yard dumpster is often too small to handle a typical renovation, move, or cleanout. However, for residential purposes, 20 and 30 cubic yard dumpsters will almost always be too large. For example, a 20-yard dumpster is equivalent to 10 pickup truck loads of stuff.
