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 we deal in the Cubic Yard of anything, but the chart below makes it easy. For example, if a garage has 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, divide 288 cubic feet by 27 (3 x 3 x 3) to calculate cubic yards.
Our experienced professionals will also help you select the right size(s) for your residential clean out, remodel or demolition project.
How to Calculate Cubic Yards
| Length in Ft | Width in Ft | Square Ft | Height in Ft | Cubic Ft | Divide by | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 want the Coastal Rolloff driver to unload the container and to check that 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 needed and up to 20 feet of aerial space is needed for safe container delivery and pickup.
If there isn't room to deliver the container on private property, please refer to Encroachment Permits.
Step 4 - Choose a delivery date.

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 will impact safety, and California state law forbids us from transporting the container in this unlawful condition.
