This is the overview page. A roll-off is an open-topped steel container built to be carried on a truck with a hydraulic hoist and a cable winch rather than lifted by forks. The truck backs in, the hoist raises the bed, and the container rolls down its own rails on the wheels at the back until it sits on the ground. Collection is the same in reverse: the cable hooks the front bar and winches the box back up the rails. That is the whole mechanism, and it is why approach room matters more than anything else on a Mesa lot.

We run five sizes out of the yard at 1913 N Rosemont — 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40 yard. The number is the volume in cubic yards, but volume is rarely what runs out here. Rock, tile, block, concrete and caliche all reach payload while the box still looks half empty, so the honest Mesa answer to which size is usually a smaller container and a swap. Ruben and Marco Salazar have run this outfit since 2013. Compare the five container sizes side by side.

Every set comes with protection boards under the rails and a driver who walks the placement with you rather than dropping the box where it is easiest. Same-day delivery is real when you call early and the route allows it, next-day is the reliable default, and next-day swaps keep a jobsite moving. If you have never rented one before, the Mesa size guide is the fastest way to get it right the first time, and the clearance section below tells you whether the container will physically fit where you want it.

The Five Sizes And What Each One Is For

10 Yard

Low sides and a short body. The right box for concrete tile tear-off, landscape rock, block, caliche and concrete, where payload arrives long before the container looks full.

15 Yard

The size that fits an original single-car drive in Dreamland Villa or Velda Rose. Good for a garage, a shed, a single room, or a shingle tear-off on a modest house.

20 Yard

The workhorse for house cleanouts and commercial fit-outs. Garage, attic and shed in one box, and it still sits inside a striped parking bay without taking the fire lane.

30 Yard

New residential framing and drywall phases, whole-house cleanouts and multi-suite turnovers. High volume of light material, swapped on trade dates rather than upsized.

40 Yard

Large build-outs, builder accounts and big demolition. Needs real length on the lot to set and to pick up, so we confirm the approach before the truck leaves the yard.

How The Hoist Works

A hydraulic hoist raises the bed and a cable winch lets the container roll down its rails on its rear wheels. Nothing is lifted over anything, so the truck has to line up straight.

Swaps On Active Jobs

Full box out, empty box in, usually the next working day. Builder and property management accounts get swaps scheduled against trade dates instead of a phone call each time.

Loading To The Rails

Load level and stay under the rails. County dust rules require three inches of freeboard and a covered load, so a box heaped above the rails cannot be tarped and cannot be lifted.

Clearance, Approach And Overhead Room

Three measurements decide whether a roll-off can be delivered at all. Length first: the truck needs roughly 60 feet of straight approach to line up, back in and let the container roll off, and more than that for a 40 yard. Width next: about 10 and a half feet of clear running room, which rules out a drive with a block pilaster on one side and a parked car on the other. Height last, and this is the one that catches Mesa, because the hoist raises well above the truck and you need 20 feet or more of clear sky over the set point. A mature date palm canopy or a low mesquite limb over the driveway will stop a delivery that had plenty of width. Tell us what is overhead when you ring, or send a photo, and we sort it before the truck rolls rather than in your driveway.

Swaps, Rental Days And Where We Run

Protection boards go under the rails on every set and we photograph the surface first. From May through September asphalt goes soft by mid-afternoon, so heavy boxes get set early in the day. Standard rental covers a normal job and we extend if the work runs long, provided you call before the pull date — the real constraint is usually the association, because CC&Rs across the master-planned communities out east govern where a container may sit and how many days it may stay. On an active site, swaps are the routine: full box out, empty box in, next working day when you ring before the cut-off. From the Rosemont yard just off McKellips we run daily across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale, Queen Creek and Apache Junction, and out to Fountain Hills, Gold Canyon and San Tan Valley, which crosses the Maricopa and Pinal county line and several separate city rulebooks. Give us the street address rather than the town when you call the yard.

Roll-Off Dumpster Rental FAQs

What actually is a roll-off dumpster?

An open-topped steel container designed to be carried on a truck with a hydraulic hoist and a cable winch. The truck backs into position, the hoist tilts the bed, and the container rolls down the rails on its rear wheels until it sits on the ground. Collection is the reverse: the cable hooks the front bar and winches it back up. Nothing is lifted over your block wall or your car, which is why the truck needs a straight approach rather than just a parking space. Sizes run 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40 yard.

How much room does the truck need?

Roughly 60 feet of straight approach, about 10 and a half feet of width, and 20 feet or more of clear height over the set point. Length and width are usually obvious when you look at the drive. Height is the one that surprises people in Mesa, because the hoist raises well above the cab and a mature date palm canopy or a mesquite limb hanging over the driveway will stop the delivery even though the container itself would fit underneath. Send a photo of the drive and we will tell you before the truck leaves the yard.

Which size should I take if I am between two?

The smaller one, plus a swap. An oversized container costs more and still cannot be filled past its weight limit, and in Mesa weight is almost always what runs out first: concrete tile, landscape rock, block, caliche and mortar-bed tile all reach payload while the box looks half empty. Take the smaller box, load it level, and call for a swap when it is full. The Mesa size guide works through real examples, and the size chart compares all five.

How do swaps work on an active job?

Full box out, empty box in, usually the next working day when you call before the cut-off. Builder and property management accounts get swaps scheduled against trade dates so nobody has to make the call at all. Two things stop a swap. A container blocked in by a delivery truck, a trailer or a parked car, and a load heaped above the rails: county dust rules require at least three inches of freeboard and a covered load, so an overfilled box cannot legally leave the site until it has been levelled.

Do I need a permit, and how far do you run?

A container on your own driveway generally needs nothing from the city. Placing one in a Mesa street requires a City of Mesa Temporary Traffic Control, or barricade, permit — 480-644-4882 or barricade@mesaaz.gov. There is no permit called a Mesa dumpster permit, whatever other sites tell you. We run daily from the Rosemont yard across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale and Queen Creek, and out to Fountain Hills, Gold Canyon and San Tan Valley. That crosses the Maricopa and Pinal county line and several city rulebooks, so give us the address rather than the town.
