40-Yard Dumpster Rental in Longview, TX $679 flat rate â our largest container for commercial-scale projects
The 40-yard is the biggest roll-off we deliver â a full-scale commercial container built for new construction sites, warehouse cleanouts, and major demolition projects. At 22 feet long and 8 feet tall with a 5-ton weight limit, this container handles the debris volume generated by Longview’s largest active projects, including the LISD school construction under the $456 million bond program and the $36.9 million I-20 Sabine River Bridge replacement.

Quick answer: A 40-yard dumpster rental in Longview costs $679 flat rate â delivery, 7-day rental, pickup, and TCEQ-compliant disposal included. The container measures approximately 22 feet long by 8 feet wide by 8 feet tall and holds about 12 pickup truck loads with a 5-ton weight limit. This is for commercial-scale projects: new construction, warehouse cleanouts, large-scale demolition, and multi-unit renovation. It requires a commercial lot or wide job site â most residential driveways cannot accommodate this container.
40-yard dumpster dimensions and capacity
The 40-yard measures approximately 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet tall â the same footprint as the 30-yard but 2 feet taller. It holds approximately 12 full-size pickup truck loads of debris, making it our highest-volume container.
At 8 feet tall, this container is above eye level for most people. All debris goes in through the rear swinging door or is loaded from above by machinery. The 5-ton weight limit supports high-volume, moderate-weight construction waste â framing lumber, drywall, insulation, packaging, and mixed job site debris.
The 40-yard requires a commercial lot or wide job site. It does not fit most residential driveways in Longview. The 22-foot length combined with 8-foot height and the truck clearance requirements (60 feet of straight approach, 23 feet of vertical) make this a commercial-placement container. If you are running a job site with adequate staging area â a parking lot, a cleared construction pad, or a wide commercial driveway â the 40-yard is the most efficient way to manage debris without multiple container swaps.
What the 40-yard handles
New construction
The 40-yard is the standard for active construction sites generating framing waste, drywall scrap, insulation cutoffs, roofing material, and packaging. Longview’s new LISD school buildings â four facilities under the $456 million bond program approved by voters â use 40-yard containers during framing and interior phases. Mixed construction waste accumulates fast: a single framing phase on a commercial building can fill a 40-yard in one to two weeks.
Warehouse and commercial cleanout
Clearing a warehouse, retail space, or large commercial property of old inventory, fixtures, racking, and accumulated materials requires the 40-yard’s volume. We service the Loop 281 commercial corridor, the East Marshall Avenue business district, and industrial properties along McCann Road and Judson Road.
Large-scale demolition
Major structural demolition â tearing down interior walls, stripping a building to the frame, or clearing a commercial property for redevelopment â generates debris that smaller containers cannot handle in a single load. The 40-yard minimizes swap frequency on demolition timelines.
Multi-unit renovation
Apartment complexes, multi-unit housing, and commercial tenant turnovers generating debris from four or more units simultaneously are a natural fit. The volume exceeds what a 30-yard handles in a single load, and the 40-yard avoids mid-project swaps that disrupt scheduling.
5-ton weight limit: what to know
Five tons (10,000 pounds) is the highest weight capacity we offer. For light to moderate construction waste â framing lumber, drywall, insulation, packaging â you will fill the 40-yard by volume well before you approach 5 tons. That is the ideal scenario for this container.
Never load concrete into a 40-yard. Concrete weighs approximately 4,000 pounds per cubic yard. Just 2.5 cubic yards of concrete hits 5 tons â and 2.5 cubic yards barely covers the bottom of a 40-cubic-yard container. Concrete, brick, and heavy masonry require specialty heavy-debris containers regardless of the container size.
East Texas clay soil is equally deceptive: at 2,200 to 2,400 pounds per cubic yard, about 4 to 5 cubic yards maxes the 40-yard’s weight limit while the container looks nearly empty. If your project involves soil removal, call us at (903) 555-0192 for a specialty setup.
Delivery, placement, and swaps
We deliver 40-yard containers across Longview, White Oak, Hallsville, and Gregg County. For commercial sites on tight timelines â like the active LISD construction corridor â we coordinate delivery and swap schedules with your project manager to avoid any gaps in waste management coverage.
- Confirmed placement location â commercial lot, construction pad, or wide staging area with at least 60 feet of straight truck access and 23 feet of vertical clearance
- Surface type â asphalt, concrete, or compacted gravel. Soft ground may require plywood underlayment to prevent sinking
- Access schedule â when the truck can enter and exit without conflicting with other construction equipment or traffic
- Swap timing â for multi-week projects, we schedule container swaps (pick up full, drop empty) on a timeline that matches your debris generation rate
How to book a 40-yard dumpster in Longview
Booking takes about five minutes, and you do not need to be home for delivery. Here is exactly how it works.
- Tell us the job and your ZIP code — Call or text (903) 555-0192 Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 6 PM. Tell us what you are clearing and whether you are in 75601, 75602, 75603, 75604, or 75605.
- Confirm the drop spot — Pick the flat, clear patch where the container goes. A 40-yard is 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet tall, and our truck needs a straight approach. Because of its size, we confirm access before delivery.
- Get delivery next business day, or same day — Most orders go out the next business day. Call before 10 AM to ask about same-day delivery on in-stock containers. The driver texts a photo of the placed container, and you do not need to be home.
- Load it, then call or text for pickup — Fill to the top edge only, never above the walls. Call or text when you are done, or before day seven, and we add you to the next pickup route, usually within 24 hours.
40-yard dumpster site requirements
The 40-yard is the biggest roll-off we put on a Longview property, so a little planning pays off. Eight-foot walls mean you load through the rear swinging door instead of over the side, and at 22 feet long the container needs a firm, flat, level pad.
- Straight approach — 60 feet of straight clearance from the street to the drop zone.
- Overhead clearance — 23 feet of vertical height, with no power lines, crane booms, or branches in the way.
- Solid ground — asphalt, concrete, or compacted gravel. East Texas clay turns soft after rain, and plywood underlayment may be needed.
- Door swing — leave room behind the container so the rear door opens fully.
