15 Cubic Yards
15 Yard Dumpster Rental in Newnan, GA
A mid-size roll-off built for a deck removal, a kitchen remodel, or a garage-and-attic cleanout combined — big enough to skip a second trip, compact enough for most driveways.

The 15 yard is the size a lot of homeowners in the Newnan area land on once a project outgrows a single small cleanout — a deck coming out, a garage and attic getting cleared in the same weekend, or a kitchen remodel with cabinets and old flooring both headed for the box. It splits the difference well — more room than a 10 yard without the footprint of a 20 yard.
At roughly 16 ft long by 7.5 ft wide by 4 ft tall, the 15 yard holds about 4–5 pickup-truck loads of debris. That’s enough to combine a garage purge with an attic cleanout, or a kitchen tear-out with cabinet, countertop, and flooring debris, into one container instead of hauling loads yourself.
Weight allowance runs 2–3 tons, which covers most mid-size cleanout and remodel debris without issue. A load that’s mostly old deck lumber, tile, or flooring can still add up fast — tell us up front what you’re loading and we’ll confirm the 15 yard is the right call, or point you to a size that fits the weight better. Call (470) 241-2574 if you’re not sure.

Why the 15 Yard Fits These Projects
A deck removal or a kitchen remodel generates more debris than most people expect once old lumber, cabinets, and flooring start coming out. Combining two spaces — a garage and an attic, say — adds up the same way. The 15 yard gives that kind of mid-size project enough room to finish in one container without paying for space a smaller job won’t use.
15 Yard vs. 10 and 20 — Which Way to Go
If your project is a single small cleanout, a garage or shed purge on its own, or a small bathroom gut, the 10 yard is usually enough and takes up less driveway space. Step up to the 20 yard if you’re tackling a whole-house cleanout, a multi-room remodel, or a full roofing tear-off. For a deck removal, a kitchen remodel, or a garage-plus-attic cleanout, the 15 yard is the size we recommend most. Still not sure? Our dumpster size guide walks through it.
What Doesn’t Fit / Weight Considerations
The 2–3 ton weight allowance covers most mixed remodel, deck, and cleanout debris, but a load that’s heavy on old flooring tile or dense lumber can reach that limit before the container is visually full — let us know if that’s what you’re loading. Whole tires turning up during a garage or attic cleanout can’t go in with mixed debris either — Georgia restricts whole tires from landfill disposal, so those need to go to a tire dealer instead. Electronics and TVs shouldn’t go in with mixed debris — Georgia doesn’t landfill-ban them by law, but most facilities won’t take them mixed in, so Coweta County’s electronics-recycling options are the better route. Paint, solvents, and other hazardous materials are never allowed in any size, including the 15 yard — see our what can go in a dumpster in Georgia guide for the full list.
Typical Rental Period
Most 15 yard rentals cover a standard rental period sized for a deck removal, a kitchen remodel, or a garage-and-attic cleanout. If your project runs longer — a remodel with delays, or a bigger cleanout than expected — ask about extending the period when you book.

The 15 yard in Newnan driveways
Most 15 yard rentals across the Newnan area sit entirely on a driveway, yard, or parking pad, which is unregulated everywhere we serve — no permit needed, full stop. That covers the typical driveway you’ll find on properties out toward Sharpsburg, Turin, and Moreland, as well as most lots inside Newnan itself, including many around the historic downtown square.
If a job genuinely needs the container on a Newnan street instead, that falls under the City’s published Sidewalk Regulations — a real, confirmed process, though no dumpster-specific fee is posted anywhere on the City’s site, so we’ll tell you to call City Hall directly to confirm before we book street placement. Outside city limits the rules shift by address: on unincorporated Coweta County land such as Welcome, Madras, Roscoe, or Arnco Mills, it’s the County’s own Engineering division that handles local roads and rights-of-way, while every other incorporated town on our route runs its own separate process. See our Newnan dumpster permit guide for the full breakdown, or call (470) 241-2574 and we’ll tell you exactly what your address needs.

15 Yard dumpster questions
How many pickup-truck loads does a 15 yard hold?
About 4–5 pickup-truck loads of debris.
What's the weight limit on a 15 yard dumpster?
2–3 tons, which covers most deck-removal, remodel, and cleanout debris. Loads heavy on tile or dense lumber can reach that limit faster.
Is a 15 yard big enough for a deck removal?
Yes, in most cases — a standard residential deck removal fits comfortably within the 15 yard’s volume and weight allowance. A larger or multi-level deck is worth mentioning when you book.
Will a 15 yard fit on my driveway?
Most residential driveways across the Newnan area can accommodate a 15 yard at roughly 16 ft x 7.5 ft x 4 ft, though we recommend confirming your specific space when you call (470) 241-2574.
Do I need a permit for a 15 yard dumpster in Newnan?
Not if it sits entirely on private property, which covers the large majority of 15 yard rentals. A permit only comes into play if it needs to sit in a public street — see our permit guide for what that involves.
What's the difference between a 15 yard and a 20 yard?
The 20 yard holds more volume and a higher weight allowance, and is the better call for a whole-house cleanout, a multi-room remodel, or a full roofing tear-off. For a deck removal, a kitchen remodel, or a garage-plus-attic cleanout, the 15 yard is usually enough — see our 20 yard page for comparison.
