For carpet, pad, hardwood or laminate coming out of a full house, the 16-yard is the size. Flooring is bulky, awkward, springy stuff. Rolled carpet fights back, hardwood comes up in splintery strips longer than you'd like, and a house's worth of it fills space fast while barely registering on weight. That's exactly the load the 16's taller walls exist for, and it all rides at the ordinary flat rate.
One or two rooms of the same material fits the 12-yard fine, and if the flooring is part of a bigger remodel, count the full job's debris, not just the floors.
Rolling carpet tight and taping it makes a big difference. Loose carpet is mostly air, and the same material rolled packs into a third of the space. Cut pad into manageable sections rather than dragging it out in one piece, and stack plank flooring flat like lumber instead of tossing it in a bird's nest.
Tile is the exception, and it's worth taking seriously. Tile itself is dense, and what's under it is the main weight: thinset, backer board, sometimes an inch or two of old mortar bed in older Richmond houses. A tiled kitchen and bath taken up together can run into four figures of pounds. Depending on the job, Jeff may run it under the heavy material arrangement, 1,000 lbs included and $50 a ton after, in the 12-yard. Say tile up front when you call and he'll tell you which way your job prices.
The same warning goes for the surprise under the flooring. If you pull carpet in a pre-war house and find plaster ceilings coming down with the remodel, or the subfloor is coming up too, mention it. The quote stays right when the load description is right.
