"Dump It Away was wonderful. I wasn't sure when or how I could get this project completed. Dump It Away made it super easy. They gave me a great quote, stayed connected so that I'd know when they would arrive, and easily completed the project. This went from a project I didn't even know I could get done to one that was completed in a manner of hours. And they are super professional! Would definitely recommend."

"I needed to get rid of our old couch ASAP and my cousin was rushing me to get her couches that she was gifting. Otherwise she would have tossed perfectly good couches. So I called KevNCal and they were able to come by within 45 mins. My apartment was on the third floor (no elevators) but they were able to get my heavy recliner couch down with ease. The stairwell was a tight fit but they made sure not to damage the walls. They were able to haul away the couch to toss at the dumps. After that, they helped me pick up sofas from my cousins house. Very thankful for their help especially on short notice. 10/10 would contact them for future services."

"I have worked professionally with RH&D for a few years now and I would fully recommend them for any Hauling and Demo needs. I have used them for many home remodel projects varying in scope from simple debris hauling, to very complicated structural demolition. I have found the pricing very fair and competitive, their scheduling is on time, their demo skills are aligned with professional standards, and this is an odd one.., but important, they fill the truck! That may sound odd but I have worked with with many companies like this and have noticed that Rick and crew consolidate and really pack the truck full to optimize space.., that alone saves me money, very much appreciated. Rick is exceptionally smart, I have no problem pointing to complicated demolition projects and knowing the he and the crew can handle it without any worry from me. I use RHD on average once a month, and sometimes 4-5 times a month on my residential home building and remodel projects. Each time when I return to look at the work it is always done right, very clean, and everyone I have seen working has a great attitude. RHD is the real deal without a doubt, and I count myself lucky to have found them."

Dumpster Service FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can put tree branches in a dumpster. In most places, tree branches, brush, logs, and other wood are considered yard waste, which is allowed in most dumpsters. Check with your local municipal authority to determine whether there are any rules about yard waste disposal and how much yard waste you can place in a single dumpster.

Depending on the rules and regulations set by your local municipality or sanitation company, you might be able to place a small amount of bricks in your regular garbage. However, you should call your local government or sanitation company first to double-check. If it’s not allowed, or you’d prefer to recycle them, you can haul them to a recycling facility or hire a trash removal company to pick them up and bring them in for recycling for you.

Permits depend on local regulations concerning street use and public spaces. Check requirements with community authorities to avoid fines or logistical issues.

The cost varies based on the weight and type of waste. You should discuss options with the rental company regarding project scale for an appropriate fit.

You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.
