Dumpster volume estimator

Visual picker math. Cubic feet per icon are rough furniture averages — your crew's stack job and local roll-off policies still decide the ticket. Yard ratings vary by hauler; we map to common U.S. roll-off names only as a conversation starter.

Frequently asked questions

Why cubic feet first?

Many junk operators think in truck pack, then map to yard bins. Showing ft³ keeps the math transparent.

Dense debris like concrete?

Not modeled. Weight limits often cap concrete jobs before volume does — call your hauler.

Can I add custom items?

Not in v1. Pad the count on a close line item or use the spreadsheet export from your CRM.

Affiliate note?

Pair with whatever dispatch software you sell after you book the bin — the tool stays vendor-neutral.
