Yard Waste Dumpster Rental in Ankeny
Which size fits your project in Ankeny? Our team manages your Yard Waste Roll-Off rental—paired with our residential cleanout coordination—for homeowners and landscapers across the local Polk area.
Branch and Brush Yard Debris Dumpster Rental
Our Hooklift trucks deliver a Roll-Off Dumpster Rental across Ankeny; we set the container on boards for stable wheelbarrow loading after you clear out the brush and hedge for the season.

10-yard yard waste roll-off
A 10-yard container holds about three pickup loads of debris, measuring roughly 12 feet long by 8 feet wide and 3.5 feet high, and the rental is covered by our landscape debris flat pricing for a simple, clear transaction.
A natural fit for a single tree trim, a hedge, or a brush pile: the 10-yard bin has low side walls for easy wheelbarrow loading—you can view our yard debris container sizing guide.

15-yard yard waste roll-off
The 15-yard roll-off holds about four to five pickup loads of yard debris and measures roughly 14 feet long by 8 feet wide and 3.5 feet high. You can check our yard waste dumpster service area coverage for local delivery.
The 15-yard is the most popular size across Ankeny for a full-yard fall leaf cleanup, a storm-damaged tree, or a landscape overhaul; the EPA home composting and yard waste guide covers what to keep on site.

20-yard yard waste roll-off
A 20-yard roll-off holds about six pickup loads of yard debris and it measures roughly 22 feet long by 8 feet wide and 4.5 feet high, so the taller walls keep material from spilling over the side.
The 20-yard handles a full landscape tear-out, a large-lot clearing, or a storm-recovery job; its tall walls and long floor keep crews moving when the load mixes brush with heavy bagged debris.
Leaf, Sod, and Landscape Disposal Containers
Loose leaves and raking debris fill a 15-yard bin easily; however, a sod or soil container load shifts the weight for an Ankeny Roll-Off Rental, common in spring and fall.
Sod and wet topsoil quickly max out your tonnage; a 20-yard container handles mixed loads—brush plus heavy dirt—for our Roll-Off Container Rental service, which we dispatch to clear sites efficiently.
Rental day-rates for a container align with our Residential Dumpster Rental pricing; you pay the daily fee, plus a dump fee at the transfer station. Wet sod adds weight to your roll-off, unlike leaves.

Seasonal Cleanup Container Scheduling
Dispatch coordinates roll-off movements across Polk using hooklift trucks; this ensures that a back-to-back project stays on track even if a mid-week fill occurs during your seasonal cleanup.
Post-thaw cleanup
Spring cleanup covers April through May: winter dieback, perennial cutback, and the first major mow get a container with a standard 5-day rental and a swap-out.
Storm-response dispatch
Wind event and hail drop branches across Ankeny without warning; Dispatch holds same-week capacity, so a downed limb does not sit for days while we clear the Roll-Off.
Leaf-haul window
Fall raking and shrub cutback jobs fill our schedule quickly during October and November. Reserving a 15-yard or 20-yard container two weeks ahead helps ensure you have the right equipment for your yard debris.
Tree-removal projects
Winter dormant tree work and post-storm cleanup continue; drivers route around snowpack and set the container level on driveway boards for safe loading.
Weight Planning for Wet Leaves and Soil
Wet leaves and topsoil push the tonnage of a container past the weight limit faster than expected; we level each load on Driveway Boards—ensuring an even load for safe transport.
Loads approaching the weight cap can trigger a mid-rental Swap-Out; our dispatch team schedules this to avoid an overage. We weigh every bin at the transfer station, providing the actual ticket.
Wet soil and saturated leaves carry more weight than dry brush—expect the included weight cap on a 15-yard to fill much faster during a rainy week than a dry one.
Acceptable Green Waste and Stump Policy
What counts as green waste? For your roll-off rental, we accept branches, brush, leaves, grass clippings, shrub trimmings, mulch, and wood chips—but not painted lumber, treated wood, or chemicals.
Small stumps under six inches ride in a roll-off with brush; however, large root balls and heavy tree stumps require a separate dirt-rated container because soil and root mass weigh out a standard bin fast. Please keep food scraps and compost out of the container—these items belong in home organic piles.
Accepted in the bin
- ✓ Branches and brush up to 8′ long
- ✓ Loose leaves, grass clippings, mulch
- ✓ Sod strips and small root balls
- ✓ Stump-grinder chips and shavings
Not in the yard-waste bin
- ✕ Loose dirt or fill soil (use a lowboy)
- ✕ Whole stumps over 18″ diameter
- ✕ Construction lumber, drywall, concrete
- ✕ Trash bags of household garbage
