Types of Yard Projects That Need Dumpsters
Seasonal Yard Cleanups
Every season brings its own yard waste. In spring, you have old plants and winter debris. Summer brings grass clippings and garden waste. Fall means lots of leaves. Winter storms can drop branches and pine needles. A yard waste dumpster from Zap Dumpsters makes cleanup easy in any season. Our 10-yard option works well for most seasonal cleanups in Colorado Springs.
Tree Removal and Trimming
Taking down trees or cutting big branches makes a lot of waste very fast. Even small trees can fill up your regular yard waste bins in no time. For tree projects, a 20-yard dumpster usually works best. It has plenty of room for branches, trunks, and leaves, but still fits in most Colorado Springs driveways.
Landscape Renovations
Changing your whole yard design? You'll have plants, sod, old mulch, and more to get rid of. For big landscape projects, our 30-yard dumpster gives you all the space you need. It's perfect for complete yard makeovers when you have lots of different plant materials to throw away.

How to Plan Your Yard Waste Dumpster Rental
Consider Your Project Size
Before you call Zap Dumpsters, think about how much yard waste you'll have. A good rule is that a 10-yard dumpster holds about 10 mature trees worth of leaves. For branch trimming, think about how many pickup truck loads you'd need. If it's more than 3-4 loads, go with a 20-yard dumpster.
Check Your Space
Our yard waste dumpsters need a flat, sturdy place to sit. Measure the spot where you want the dumpster. A 10-yard needs about 10 feet by 8 feet of space. A 30-yard needs about 22 feet by 8 feet. Make sure there's clear space above too - watch for power lines or tree branches that might be in the way.
