Megabac Environnement — dumpster rental
20 yard Megabac dumpster delivered on a Montreal jobsite

Brick and mortar dumpster rental — 20 yards, sold by weight

The wall being redone, the chimney coming down, the veneer being stripped: masonry does not rent like a renovation — weight decides, not volume. One size goes out, the 20 yard: 7 tons included, 12 maximum, filled three quarters at most, never more — the truck's legal load is reached well before the rim. Enter your wall's dimensions below: the tool returns your tons and the number of trips.

Why bricks and mortar are sold by weight

The brick wall being redone, the chimney being dismantled, the masonry veneer being stripped: it all ends up in a pile that looks harmless on the ground. It is not: bricks and mortar weigh about one ton per cubic yard — the same order as concrete and soil, far above a renovation dumpster that fills with wood and drywall. That is why masonry never goes into the renovation box, and why it is not sold by volume.

One size goes out: the 20 yard. The price covers 7 tons included, 12 tons maximum; each additional ton is prorated from the disposal centre's weigh ticket — real weight, never rounded. And the box fills three quarters at most (45 inches from the floor): the truck's legal load is reached well before the rim. Concrete, soil and asphalt follow the same logic: each gets its own dumpster, each its own weigh ticket. Whether you are rebuilding a wall, dismantling a chimney or stripping a veneer, it is the number of trips that adjusts — never the size.

How many tons, how many trips?

Measure the wall coming down — or the pile already on the ground: the tool converts to cubic yards, then tons, and tells you whether one dumpster is enough.

The thickness of a brick wall is not intuitive: measure the real thickness of your wall or your pile. The result is an estimate — the weight that counts is the weigh ticket's.

Enter your dimensions — the math shows up here.

Jobsite benchmark: bricks and mortar weigh about one ton per cubic yard — the same order as broken concrete and soil. Thickness is not guessed: every wall is different, measure yours.

What goes into the brick and mortar dumpster

A single-material dumpster takes that material only: any mixing brings sorting fees. The rule is simple, and it protects your invoice.

Yes — bricks and mortar only

  • Bricks from a wall, a chimney, a veneer — mortar included
  • Masonry blocks, joint rubble and leftover mortar
  • Stone veneer: accepted, along with the masonry
  • Paving stones, except beige ones: beige goes in the concrete dumpster, other colours stay here

No — this stays out

  • Concrete, « while we're at it »: it has its own dumpster — slab, foundation, steps
  • Soil and asphalt: each gets its own, same logic
  • The frame's wood, windows, drywall: that is the mixed dry materials dumpster
  • The refused-everywhere items: tires, oils, paints, solvents, aerosols, propane tanks

How it unfolds, no surprises

  2. The box arrives, the driveway is protected PROTEC-O-SOL planks included under the dumpster. You load three quarters at most — the 45 inch mark is inside the box.
  3. Weighed at the disposal centre, billed at real weight The weigh ticket is what counts: 7 tons included, each additional ton prorated, never rounded.

A doubt while loading — leftover concrete, frame wood still attached? Call before the truck leaves: thirty seconds on the phone costs less than sorting at the disposal centre.

Masonry jobsite questions

I am taking down a chimney: do the bricks and mortar go together?

Yes — that is exactly this dumpster. A dismantled chimney is bricks plus the mortar that held them: both travel together, nothing to separate on your end. What stays out is the rest of the project — flashing, sheet metal, wood: that is the mixed dry materials dumpster.

Are paving stones accepted?

One call confirms it. Paving stones look like masonry, but we would rather answer before delivery than in front of a loaded box: describe what you are tearing out at 514 708-2424 and you get a clear answer before the box arrives.

Why do bricks get their own dumpster?

Because a single-material dumpster takes only its material: that is what lets it be sold by weight, off the weigh ticket, with no surprise on the invoice. Concrete has its own, soil and asphalt too — any mixing brings sorting fees. If your project produces brick AND concrete, we plan two boxes or two trips: it is your invoice we are protecting.

How many tons are included?

7 tons are included in the price, and a trip leaves at 12 tons maximum. In between, each additional ton is prorated from the disposal centre's weigh ticket — your load's real weight, never rounded.

The wall is already down?

A two-minute call gives you the exact price, the number of trips and the date. We do the math with you.
