"Mauricio R from Solid Ground Landscaping did a great work at my property, the crew installed a flagstone patio, upgrade the sprinkler system and build 120 LF of picket fence between our properties. He gave us a fair price for the project, but the most important he did the work according to the code. I recommend this company for any landscape project."

Hauling questions, answered by experts

Products that are hazardous, such as aerosol sprays, top the list of what to leave behind during a move. Avoid packing perishables, garden and garage chemicals, pool supplies, compressed gases, and combustible items. If you are trying to move by yourself, you may want to downsize so you have fewer belongings to pack and move (and then unpack).

The cost-effectiveness of renting a dumpster versus hiring a junk removal company depends on the amount of junk you have. For a few individual items, junk removal is often cheaper, with average costs ranging from $140 to $380. However, for major cleanouts or large home improvement projects, renting a dumpster may be the more economical choice. Dumpster rentals cost an average of $300 to $480 per week. Junk removal companies typically charge based on how much space your items take up in their truck, so the cost can increase significantly if you have a large volume of debris.

Most companies that haul away old hot tubs build the cost of disposal into the price. However, there's no guarantee. Always ask for confirmation before agreeing to an estimate. If the removal company does not also dispose of the hot tub, you will need to rent a dumpster or hire a local junk hauling service.

You cannot put anything you want into a rented dumpster, as there are significant restrictions on certain items.

Generally allowed items include:

  • Household Junk: Furniture, old linens, carpets, toys, small appliances, and excess trash.

  • Construction & Yard Debris: Wood, yard debris, roofing materials, old finishes, and other construction waste.

Commonly prohibited items include:

  • Hazardous Materials: Toxic waste, medical waste, dangerous chemicals, items with lead paint, and asbestos.

  • Flammables: Gasoline, oil, and fuel.

  • Specific Banned Items: Paint cans, electronics, batteries, tires, refrigerators, and hot water tanks.

Because rules can vary, you should always check with your specific dumpster rental company for their guidelines if you are unsure about an item.

When it comes to disposing of mattresses, metal, and untreated wood items, these are typically recyclable. In comparison, things like treated wood, chipboard or particleboard, and some types of sofa foam padding aren’t. Older items of furniture also often contain chemicals that are a health hazard. However, it might be possible to break the furniture down and recycle some, if not all, of the pieces. Contact your government trash management division or a local, authorized recycling center for more advice.
