Spring cleaning in Old Colorado City? Start with the right dumpster.
As homeowners and property managers gear up for seasonal cleanouts in Old Colorado City, having a dumpster on-site makes things faster and more efficient. Whether you're clearing out a garage, prepping a rental, or tackling a full-home purge, choosing the right dumpster size, managing your timeline, and keeping your load within the weight limit are key to staying on budget.
Here’s how to get it done without headaches—and how EZ Roll-Off Services makes it simple for Colorado Springs locals.
How Long Should a Spring Cleanout Take?
A typical spring cleanout for a home in Old Colorado City takes about a weekend to a week. But things can stretch longer if you’re handling:
Estate cleanouts
Multiple property units
Junk from sheds, garages, or attics
Yard debris or old construction materials
That’s why EZ Roll-Off offers a 14-day rental period on every dumpster. You get two full weeks to load up at your pace. If you need more time, it’s just $20 per extra day.
Tip: Plan ahead. Reserve your dumpster a few days before you begin so it’s delivered right when you’re ready to start loading.
Dumpster Sizes: What Fits a Cleanout in Old Colorado City?
EZ Roll-Off Services offers four dumpster sizes that cover nearly every type of spring project in Colorado Springs:
12-Yard Dumpster
Best for: Small cleanouts, single-room purges, garage junk
Capacity: About 4 pickup loads
Stays light, making it ideal if you’re aiming to stay well below weight limits.
15-Yard Dumpster
Best for: 2–3 room cleanouts, small rental properties
Capacity: About 5–6 pickup loads
Popular for moderate cleanouts in tighter spaces around Old Colorado City’s older homes.
20-Yard Dumpster
Best for: Full-home cleanouts, major garage cleanouts, downsizing
Capacity: About 8 pickup loads
A solid middle ground—large enough for bulky items, but still manageable for driveways.
30-Yard Dumpster
Best for: Estate cleanouts, multi-family properties, big renovations
Capacity: Around 12 pickup loads
Go big if you’ve got a large volume or heavier waste types (but mind the weight).
If you’re unsure which size fits your project, call EZ Roll-Off at (719) 492-2292. or email ez.roll.off53@gmail.com. They’ll help you choose based on volume, access, and expected debris type.
Stay Under the Weight Limit (and Avoid Extra Charges)
Each dumpster has a weight limit based on its size and what's being thrown inside. Going over that limit means additional disposal fees.
Here’s how to stay under the limit:
Sort and donate usable items before tossing
Don’t mix heavy materials like roofing or concrete with general junk (these add up fast)
Avoid water-logged materials like soaked carpet or wood
Break down furniture and boxes to save space and weight
Know what not to toss—hazardous or restricted items can’t go in (call for details)
Important: Certain items like mattresses, electronics, or appliances may carry extra fees or restrictions. Don’t guess—call EZ Roll-Off for clarification.
What You Can (and Can’t) Toss During a Cleanout
Acceptable:
Old furniture
General household junk
Yard waste
Boxes, paper, and light construction materials
Not accepted (or may require special handling):
Paint, solvents, chemicals
Tires, batteries, or large appliances
Medical or biohazard waste
Electronics (call for local recycling options)
Always confirm if you’re unsure—better safe than stuck with a rejected load.

FAQ: Spring Dumpster Rentals in Old Colorado City
What size dumpster do I need for a 2-bedroom house cleanout?
A 15-yard or 20-yard dumpster usually works well for this type of project. The 15-yard is great if you’re decluttering, while the 20-yard gives more flexibility for heavier or bulky items.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
Every rental comes with 14 days. If you need more time, you can extend for $20 per day. Just let EZ Roll-Off know in advance.
Can I throw away yard debris with household junk?
Yes, but don’t overload the dumpster with wet branches or sod, as that can increase the weight quickly. Mix wisely and stay within limits.
What happens if I go over the weight limit?
You’ll be charged an overage fee based on the extra tonnage. To avoid this, break down items, avoid mixing heavy materials, and don’t overfill past the top line.
Do I need to be home for delivery or pickup?
No, as long as the drop-off area is accessible and clear. EZ Roll-Off drivers will place the dumpster exactly where you specify.
Can I dispose of an old mattress or refrigerator?
These may require special handling or extra fees. Call EZ Roll-Off at (719) 492-2292.for confirmation before tossing them in.
