The 40 yard container in Corpus Christi, TX
The 40 yard is our biggest container: about 22 ft long, 7.5 ft wide and 8 ft high, holding roughly 230 to 250 kitchen-size trash bags with a 5 to 6 ton rating. It keeps the same footprint as the 20 and 30 yard, so the driveway space it needs is no larger — the difference is entirely in wall height and total capacity.
We deliver this size for commercial projects and major demolition work across Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend — building strip-outs, larger demolition jobs, and commercial cleanouts generating far more volume than a residential renovation.
Capacity
What actually fits in a 40 yard container
Rough working figures. Weight, not volume, is what stops most loads.
| Material | How much fits |
|---|---|
| Commercial building strip-out or interior demo | fits comfortably |
| Major residential demolition (garage, additions) | fits comfortably |
| Large-scale construction site debris | fits with room to spare |
| Multi-unit property cleanout | fits comfortably |
Suitability
Is the 40 yard the right size for you?
Choose the 40 yard for
- Commercial demolition and building strip-outs
- Major residential demolition (garages, additions, outbuildings)
- New-construction debris on larger builds
- Multi-unit or large commercial property cleanouts
- Industrial and refinery-adjacent facility debris
Pick a different size for
- Small residential projects — the 10 or 15 yard is far more cost-effective
- Sites with limited overhead clearance for an 8 ft-tall container
- Properties where a 22 ft container can't get a straight approach
Placing a 40 yard container on a Corpus Christi-area property
The 40 yard is the size we field the most calls about from commercial and industrial customers working near the Port of Corpus Christi and the refinery corridor, where demolition and facility-strip jobs run at a scale residential sizes just aren't built for. Because it shares the same 22 ft footprint as the 20 and 30 yard, placement planning comes down mostly to overhead clearance at 8 ft tall and making sure the delivery route — often off Airline Rd or the Crosstown Expressway corridor — has room for our truck to set it down straight.
For larger commercial sites across the service area, including Robstown's industrial areas and properties along the San Patricio County side past the Harbor Bridge, we coordinate delivery timing around site access and any permitting your project requires. Ask our dispatch team about scheduling ahead for multi-container or swap-out service on bigger jobs.

Answers
40 Yard Dumpster — questions we get asked
What's the biggest dumpster you offer?
The 40 yard is our largest size — about 22 ft long, 7.5 ft wide and 8 ft high, holding roughly 230 to 250 bags with a 5 to 6 ton rating.
Does a 40 yard dumpster need more driveway space than a 30 yard?
No — the footprint is the same 22 ft by 7.5 ft as the 20 and 30 yard. The 40 yard is taller (8 ft), so overhead clearance is the main placement consideration, not driveway length or width.
Is the 40 yard suitable for a residential job?
It can be, for major residential demolition like a full garage or addition teardown, but for most home renovation or cleanout projects a 20 or 30 yard is a better fit and more cost-effective. We're happy to help you size it correctly when you call.
Do you deliver 40 yard dumpsters near the Port of Corpus Christi and refinery area?
Yes — this is one of our most-requested sizes for commercial and industrial customers working in and around the port and refinery corridor, where demolition and strip-out volume runs well beyond residential scale.
