Garage, Attic, and Basement Cleanouts
Garage, Attic, and Basement Cleanout Dumpsters
Garages, attics, basements, sheds, and storage rooms often become overcrowded with items that are no longer useful, turning once-functional areas into cluttered catch-all spaces. Dumpster Dynasty offers a convenient solution for garage, attic, and basement cleanouts: one roll-off dumpster in your driveway so you can remove years of accumulated clutter in a single, streamlined project.
As you sort through your belongings, you can load the dumpster as you go and reclaim valuable space for parking, storage, or a workshop. We deliver dumpster rentals across Georgetown County, southern Horry County, and northern Charleston County from our yard in Georgetown, SC, making the process manageable and even rewarding.

Recommended Dumpster Size for Garage, Attic, and Basement Cleanouts
Storage spaces hold more than most people expect. Size the dumpster to the number of spaces you are clearing.
| Job size | Recommended dumpster | Dimensions | Holds | Starting price | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 10-yard | 15’ × 8’ × 3’ | About 4 pickup truck loads | From $275 | One-car garage, a single attic, a storage room, or a small shed |
| Medium | 15-yard | 15’ × 8’ × 4’ | About 8 pickup truck loads | From $305 | Packed two-car garage, full basement, garage plus attic |
| Large | 20-yard | 16’ × 8’ × 5’ | About 12 pickup truck loads | From $335 | Whole-home storage cleanouts, garage plus shed and workshop clutter |
Measurements are approximate and prices are starting rates; your quote depends on how long you keep the dumpster and what you are throwing away. Heavy materials like dirt and concrete have a 5-ton limit in a 10-yard dumpster, and we paint a fill line inside every container for reference. Not sure? Tell us what you are tossing and we will recommend a size.

Tips for Garage, Attic, and Basement Cleanouts
- Start with the biggest items. Clearing large furniture first makes sorting the rest easier.
- Set aside hazardous items. Paint, fuel, and chemicals need separate disposal.
- Use three piles. Keep, donate, and dumpster, and decide on each item only once.
- Mind attic stairs. Bag small items and lower bulky pieces carefully.
- Plan a weekend. Most storage cleanouts go fastest with a helper and a full day or two.
Garage, Attic, and Basement Cleanout FAQs
What size dumpster do I need for a garage cleanout?
A one-car garage or single attic usually fits in a 10-yard dumpster, about 4 pickup truck loads. A packed two-car garage, a full basement, or a garage plus attic cleanout usually needs a 15-yard. Tell us what spaces you are clearing and we will recommend a size.
How much does a garage cleanout dumpster cost?
Garage, attic, and basement cleanout dumpster rentals start at $275 for a 10-yard, $305 for a 15-yard, and $335 for a 20-yard. Your price depends on rental length and what you load. You will know the price before delivery, and veterans and active military save 15% with ID.
Can I throw away old paint and chemicals from the garage?
No. Paint, chemicals, pesticides, motor oil, and other hazardous materials are not allowed in the dumpster. Tires and car batteries are also off-limits. Set those items aside for your county household hazardous waste drop-off, and load the rest of your garage clutter into the dumpster.
Can I put a shed cleanout in the same dumpster?
Yes. Sheds and storage rooms are common additions to a garage cleanout. Old tools, broken furniture, boxes, and general clutter are all fine. If you are also tearing down the shed itself, see our demolition and debris removal page or call us to size up.
How long can I keep the dumpster while I sort?
Your quote is based on how long you need the dumpster. Many people sort over a weekend, but if you need more time, rental extensions are available for an added cost, based on current availability. Call us before your scheduled pickup to adjust.
Will the dumpster fit in my driveway?
Our dumpsters are about 15 to 16 feet long and 8 feet wide, so most residential driveways have room. We set each dumpster on wood boards to protect the surface and will help you choose a firm, level spot the truck can reach.
