Shingles are deceptively heavy — a full tear-off on an average-sized roof fills a bin faster than most people expect, and the material sits denser than a typical cleanout load. That's worth knowing before you book so you order the right size the first time.
We deliver early so the bin is on-site and ready before the crew starts tearing off, keeping shingles and old flashing off the lawn and driveway and out of the way of foot traffic.
It depends on the size of the roof and how many layers of shingles are coming off. For most single-layer tear-offs on an average home, the 15-yard is the safer choice — tell us the roof size when you book and we'll help you pick.
Shingles are dense and heavy compared to household debris, so a bin that looks half-empty by volume can already be carrying a lot of weight. That's normal for roofing jobs.
Yes, standard roofing debris including flashing and nails can go in with the shingles.
Let us know when booking — a double-layer tear-off produces significantly more material and we'll help you plan for the right bin size or a second bin.
