15-Yard Dumpster Rental in Des Moines and Ankeny, Iowa
WE OFFER SAME DAY DELIVERY!

Need a 15-yard dumpster in Des Moines or Ankeny? The 15-yard roll-off is the middle-ground container that handles medium projects without the footprint of a larger bin. It holds about four to five pickup truck loads and is a favorite for roofing jobs, bathroom remodels, and two-car garage cleanouts.
Dumpster King is a family-owned company headquartered in Ankeny at 1617 S Ankeny Blvd, with a second location in Pleasant Hill. We deliver across Des Moines, Ankeny, and more than 80 communities throughout central Iowa. Our 200+ Google reviews and 5.0 rating come from showing up on time and doing the job right.
How Much Fits in a 15-Yard Dumpster?
A 15-yard dumpster holds roughly four to five pickup truck loads of material. It strikes the balance between the compact 10-yard and the high-capacity 20-yard, giving you extra room while still fitting comfortably in most driveways across the Des Moines metro.
The 15-yard includes up to 2 tons (4,000 pounds) of weight in the base price. It is a strong choice for roofing tear-offs and remodel debris, where volume and weight both matter.

15-Yard Dumpster Rental Cost
Our 15-yard dumpster starts at $335 and includes delivery, pickup, disposal, a 7-day rental period, and up to 2 tons of weight. You get meaningfully more capacity than the 10-yard for just $10 more at the base rate.
Every rental includes delivery, pickup, and disposal up to the included weight limit. Additional weight is $60 per ton, prorated. A fuel surcharge is added based on distance from our Ankeny shop, and we tell you the full price before you book. Appliances are $60 each and mattresses are $20 each. No hidden fees.
What Can and Cannot Go in the Dumpster
Most household and construction debris is fine: drywall, lumber, flooring, shingles, siding, furniture, appliances (with surcharge), mattresses (with surcharge), yard waste, and general junk.
Not allowed: wet paint, oil, adhesives, chemicals, batteries, tires, engines, dirt, sand, concrete (use our dedicated concrete dumpster instead), or anything flammable or explosive. Not sure about an item? Call us before you load it.
Is a 15-Yard the Right Size?
If you are doing a focused single-room project, the 10-yard may save you money. If you are renovating a kitchen, clearing a whole house, or tearing off a large roof, step up to the 20-yard or 30-yard. For heavy material like concrete or dirt, our dedicated concrete dumpster is the better fit. Call us and we will help you choose.

Adnan Isic, Owner of Dumpster King
"The 15-yard is our quiet workhorse. It covers a roof tear-off or a bathroom gut without the size of a 20. A lot of contractors default to it for exactly that reason."
