Roll-off Service

Ted’s Trash Service offers a roll-off service that provides waste removal of construction debris or industrial waste for the greater Kansas City area.We are offering 6 yard (72x55x50) temporary clean up containers! The 6 YARD is only available in the following cities; Independence, Blue Springs, and Raytown.The Missouri Department of Transportation requires that all containers be LEVEL FULL for any transport and within Missouri State law weight requirements (8 tons). All terms and conditions are listed on individual customer invoices.Ted’s Trash Service works hard to ensure that we do our part to divert recyclable materials from the waste stream. We specialize in roll-off services for the collection, processing, and disposal of construction and demolition (C&D) debris in the KC Metro area.Roll-off rental can be a difficult thing to gauge when you’re a first-time renter. With these steps, hopefully you can properly assess what size container you’re going to need for the particular job you’re working on.

How HEAVY is the stuff you’re dealing with? If you’re dealing with dirt, concrete, brick, trees and/or tree stumps your most important question is going to regard tonnage – followed next by volume of the container. Missouri DOT sets weight restrictions that we cannot exceed. A larger size box (30 or 40 yard) loaded with concrete or other inert debris may weigh easily more than 20+ tons – which would be dangerous and illegal us to carry. If you are dealing with light materials, all the sizes we offer (10-40 cubic yards) are usually available to you. Your only concern is the amount of space your disposables (and the container itself) are going to take up.We get a lot of calls for containers to throw roofing in. In this case, a 20 yard waste container can manage up to approx. 60 squares. Much like dirt, concrete shingles can get heavy, quickly. We do not set anything larger than a 20 yard for asphalt shingles.

In dumpster rental, it’s crucial to have too much than too little — coming up 10 yards short on getting rid of your stuff when you could have ordered a 40 over a 30 is going to cost you more in the end than ordering the 40 to begin with. Dumpsters can’t be loaded over the top, so having to pay for another container just to get rid of a few more things will be a headache best avoided.Home renovations such as overhauling a bathroom or cleaning out a garage can usually be served with smaller containers in few cases 10 yards are enough, in others you may need a 20 or a 30.In summary, heavy stuff usually means you need a container with a higher tonnage limit — roofing and common single-room household renovations usually only require up to a 20 yard.
