21 Yard — from $359 Multi-room renovations, basement finishing, siding and window replacement, and larger Forest Hills home projects.

25 Yard — from $359 Whole-home renovations and larger estate cleanouts on Forest Hills’ bigger properties. Same price as the 21 — more capacity.

For most Forest Hills renovation projects, the 21 or 25 yard is the right fit — these homes generate real debris when renovated properly, and the 25 is the same price with more room.
