To save you time and headaches, here's the step by step process:
Step 1 – Write a description of the type and quantity of materials you need removed.
For a comprehensive list of what materials are accepted or not accepted in rolloff containers, please refer to the Materials section.
- Construction & Demolition (C&D) Debris
Materials used to build a house or structure like boards, wood, drywall, windows, doors, roofing shingles, tile, plywood, toilets, bathtubs, shower stalls, cabinets, countertops, etc. - Household Waste
Items placed inside the home or building after it was built like clothes, furniture, carpet, etc. - Heavy Materials
High-density materials like concrete, stone, asphalt, dirt, sod, brick, block, stumps, logs, etc.
Step 2 – Choose a container size.
It's not every day that most of us deal in Cubic Yards, but the chart below makes it easy. To start, think about the size of your garbage pile. For example, if a you have a pile of debris 18 feet long by 8 feet wide, that equals 144 square feet. If the pile is 2 feet high that's 288 cubic feet. Knowing that a yard is 3 feet, in this case we will divide our 288 cubic feet by 27 (3 x 3 x 3) to calculate cubic yards.
Our experienced professionals are also available and ready to help you select the right size(s) for your residential clean out, remodel or demolition project.
How to Calculate Cubic Yards
Pile Length in Feet | Pile Width in Feet | Square Feet | Pile Height in Feet | Cubic Feet | Divide by | Cubic Yards | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
18 | x | 8 | = | 144 | x | 2 | = | 288 | 27 | = | 10 |
10 | x | 10 | = | 100 | x | 10 | = | 1,000 | 27 | = | 37 |
Length in Ft | 18 | 10 |
---|---|---|
x Width in Ft | 8 | 10 |
= Square Ft | 144 | 100 |
x Height in Ft | 2 | 10 |
= Cubic Ft | 288 | 1000 |
Divide By 27 = | 10 | 37 |

Step 3 – Measure the area for adequate and safe rolloff placement.
Before ordering a container, it is wise to measure the area where you would like our driver to unload the container, and ensure there are no overhead hazards like power lines and tree branches.
The images below show a dump-style truck unloading a rolloff container to a site. Note: the overall length, and up to 20' of vertical space, needed for safe container delivery and pickup.
If there isn't room to deliver the container on private property, you may need an Encroachment Permit.

Step 4 - Choose a delivery date.
There is generally a 24-hour lead time (on weekdays) to consider when selecting your delivery date options. We are closed on the following holidays:
- New Year's Day
- Thanksgiving Day
- Christmas Day
Step 5 – Review the payment options.
Advance payment is required, based on the estimate provided. Coastal Rolloff accepts American Express, MasterCard and Visa over the phone, and checks or cash at the location below:

Step 7 – Meet the driver for the container delivery and placement.
Someone at least 18 years of age is required to be on site to meet the driver to explain where the container is to be placed, and to answer the pre-delivery phone call from the driver.
Step 8 – Load acceptable materials evenly.
Please load the materials evenly in the container and do not fill above the top level. If the container is loaded unevenly or too high, it may impact transportation safety, and California state law forbids us from transporting the container in this unlawful condition.
Step 9 – Request for container pickup online or call Coastal Rolloff.
