This comparison covers Tor Bin Rental’s 10-yard, 14-yard, and 20-yard bins for common home projects. You will also see current July 2026 starting rates, rental inclusions, loading rules, and the difference between Regular and All-In pricing.
Whether you need an Alliston home renovation bin rental or reliable Alliston construction waste disposal, use the guide below to match the bin to your project.
Quick Answer: Which Bin Should You Choose?
Use this simple if/then guide:
If you are renovating one bathroom or completing a small single-room project, then choose the 10-yard bin.
If you are gutting a standard kitchen or renovating more than one room, then choose the 14-yard bin.
If you are demolishing a finished basement, completing an addition, or renovating most of the home, then choose the 20-yard bin.
If your load is only soil, concrete, or asphalt, then choose the specialty 8-yard bin.
If your project includes both heavy material and mixed renovation debris, then contact Tor Bin Rental before booking. These materials may need separate disposal planning.

Bin Size Comparison
The 10-yard and 14-yard bins have a lower 3.5-foot wall height, which makes loading easier. The 20-yard bin is taller, providing more volume while keeping the same approximate 8' x 14' footprint as the 14-yard option.
Actual capacity depends on the material you load. Drywall, lumber, cabinets, flooring, and furniture take up space quickly. Concrete, soil, asphalt, tile, and masonry add weight much faster.
10-Yard Bin: Best for Bathrooms and Small Projects
The 10-yard bin measures 7' x 11' x 3.5'. It is the most practical option when your renovation is focused on one room.
Choose the 10-yard bin if you are:
Renovating one standard bathroom.
Updating a powder room.
Removing a vanity, toilet, tub, tile, and drywall.
Completing a small kitchen update.
Clearing one garage, room, or basement section.
Working with a short or narrow driveway.
Removing limited flooring, trim, or cabinetry.
A bathroom demolition can include:
An old tub or shower.
Vanity and cabinets.
Toilet.
Tile and flooring.
Drywall and trim.
Small amounts of lumber.
Packaging from new fixtures.
For a single bathroom in Alliston, the 10-yard bin is usually the right starting point.
⚠️ Watch the weight. A bathroom renovation with thick tile, concrete, masonry, or a heavy mud bed can reach weight limits quickly. Ask before booking if your project includes unusually dense materials.
14-Yard Bin: The Best Fit for Most Kitchen Renovations
The 14-yard bin measures 8' x 14' x 3.5'. It offers more room than the 10-yard option without the taller wall height of the 20-yard bin.
For many homeowners, this is the best all-around bin for a full kitchen renovation.
Choose the 14-yard bin if you are removing:
Upper and lower cabinets.
Countertops.
Backsplash tile.
Kitchen flooring.
Drywall.
Appliances.
Trim and shelving.
Light framing.
Cardboard and construction packaging.
A small galley kitchen update may fit in a 10-yard bin. A full kitchen gut usually makes more sense in a 14-yard bin.
Choose the 20-yard bin instead if you are:
Opening walls into another room.
Removing flooring throughout the main floor.
Renovating the kitchen and dining room together.
Removing several layers of old flooring.
Dealing with plaster, masonry, or other heavy materials.
Combining the kitchen renovation with a large household cleanout.
Why upgrade from 10 yards to 14 yards?
If your kitchen project is close to filling a 10-yard bin, upgrading can cost less than ordering another delivery and pickup.
Use this rule:
If you are replacing a vanity, a few cabinets, and limited flooring, then choose 10 yards.
If you are removing cabinets, counters, appliances, flooring, drywall, and packaging, then choose 14 yards.
If you are renovating the kitchen plus other rooms, then consider 20 yards.
20-Yard Bin: Best for Basements, Additions, and Large Renovations
The 20-yard bin measures 8' x 14' x 5'. It is the best choice when your project creates a high volume of bulky waste.
Choose the 20-yard bin for:
A full basement demolition.
A finished basement renovation.
A basement and bathroom renovation together.
Several rooms of drywall and flooring.
A home addition.
Structural renovation work.
A large contractor-led project.
A whole-home renovation.
A renovation combined with a furniture or household cleanout.
Basement projects often produce mixed debris, including:
Carpet or laminate flooring.
Drywall.
Drop ceiling tiles.
Framing.
Insulation.
Shelving.
Furniture.
Doors and trim.
Bathroom or kitchenette materials.
Construction packaging.
A partial basement cleanout may fit in a 14-yard bin. A full gut job usually needs a 20-yard bin.
For a true whole-home renovation, plan for more than one haul. Even a 20-yard bin may fill quickly when you are removing flooring, drywall, cabinetry, fixtures, furniture, and framing from multiple rooms.
