"Mauricio did an excellent job of clearing my very dirty brick patio, front steps, paths and driveway. He was efficient and the result is amazing. The bricks on the patio were black with moss growing on them. Now they look like new."

"I am so thankful I found Go Time Hauling. Since I don’t live in the area, I basically had one long weekend to empty out my brother’s apartment after he died suddenly. Tevin was professional, met me at planned times, and helped haul away everything to donation centers and a storage unit. More importantly, he was compassionate, kind, and gave good suggestions about places to bring things so they didn’t just end up in a dumpster. This wasn’t just junk…it was my brother’s home. I’m not sure I could have survived the death of my brother without Tevin’s help."

"Joseph and Chris did an excellent job removing our tool shed and moving its contents as well as disposing unwanted items. They were courteous and polite and cleaned up the area. I would hire them again for other hauling needs."

"Roy and his helper Fernandez did a terrific job installing our new refrigerator and disposing the old one. They brought the new fridge up the stairs, maneuvered it into place in the kitchen, and removed and took the old fridge away. They were conscientious and through, taking their time and cleaning up after themselves when finished, and completed the job sooner than Roy estimated. They did a great job, and I would not hesitate to recommend RC Handyman to anyone who needs assistance with a home project."

Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

Most services offer weekly or biweekly pickup schedules. Additional pickups may be available upon request.

While a rented dumpster can handle a wide variety of materials, there are significant restrictions on what is allowed. Generally, you can dispose of most non-hazardous household junk, yard waste, and construction debris.

Accepted items typically include:

  • Furniture, carpets, old linens, and toys

  • Wood and yard debris

  • Small appliances and excess trash

  • Renovation waste like old finishes, building debris, and roofing materials (unless they contain lead paint or asbestos)

However, you cannot put toxic, flammable, or hazardous materials in a dumpster. Prohibited items almost always include:

  • Paint, gasoline, oil, and other fuels

  • Household cleaners and other chemicals

  • Electronics, batteries, and tires

  • Refrigerators, hot water tanks, and medical waste

Since regulations can vary by location and company, it is essential to check with your dumpster rental provider for their specific list of accepted and prohibited items before you begin.

The cost of junk removal services for private garbage collection factors in wages for labor, the cost of maintaining and operating vehicles and trailers to haul garbage to a dump or recycling center. Landfills also charge a fee to dump garbage, which varies depending on what kind of waste it is. 

The ideal dumpster location is flat, accessible, and out of the way. If local guidelines allow it, a street, driveway, or paved area near or in front of your home is a good option. However, you should avoid soft ground, tight corners, or blocking entrances. If you live in a neighborhood with restrictions, always check with your city or HOA before placing a dumpster.

When deciding between renting a dumpster and hiring a junk removal service, the key factors are the type of project, the items you're discarding, and your timeline.

  • Rent a dumpster for longer projects like remodeling or construction. It offers flexibility, allowing you to dispose of debris like broken tile, drywall, fixtures, and yard waste over several days. You will be responsible for loading the dumpster yourself.

  • Hire a junk removal service for quick, hands-free disposal. This is ideal if you want to get rid of a pile of junk quickly, or if you have heavy or bulky items like furniture and boxes that you don't want to lift yourself. The professionals handle all the labor, often clearing everything out within a few hours.
