Container Sizes

Containers and Measurements

Here's information on our residential and commercial container sizes. Read more about containers' dimensions.

Residential Carts

Sanipac's carts come in three sizes: 32 gallon, 60 gallon and 90 gallon.

The 32-gallon cart is our standard can size. It works well for small households and people who commingle and hardly waste a thing.

The 60-gallon cart equals two normal-size cans and serves homes with more than two people.

Our 90-gallon cart equals three standard cans. It is suitable for large households with extra trash

Dumpster-style Containers

Sanipac offers Dumpster-style containers in sizes from 1- to 6-cubic yards. To help you visualize how much this is, a 1-yard container will hold six of the 30-gallon carts. Or, picture a pickup truck. When it is loaded level to the sides, it contains about 3 cubic yards; if material is heaped above the sides, it equals about 6 cubic yards.

Drop Boxes

Our drop boxes come in 20- or 30-cubic yard sizes. That's 7 to 10 pickup loads in one box. The box occupies about the same area as a standard parking space. Truly large volumes often require compaction equipment for the most efficiency in controlling costs of trash disposal.
