Hauling questions, answered by experts

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.

Follow the instructions of your dumpster company to pack it correctly, both for safety and efficiency. In most cases, bulk items are best at the bottom, and smaller items fill in the gaps. Try to balance the weight of your dumpster by filling the base end-to-end before piling anything else on top. Additionally, never fill the dumpster higher than the top rim so your team can safely transport it to the dump.

Ensure bins are accessible and follow guidelines for separating recyclables and hazardous materials.

The cost for junk removal is $240 on average, but prices can range from $60 to $600. Your total price largely depends on the items you’re having removed. Certain appliances, like window air conditioners, range from $75 to $90 to remove. However, more oversized items, like hot tubs, fall on the expensive side of the range, costing between $200 and $600 for removal. You should also consider the amount and weight of your junk, with most junk removal companies requiring a minimum of 2 cubic yards.

Begin by calling your waste management company to check if there was a reason the garbage truck skipped your home this time. If there is no clear explanation or you cannot reach a representative, call your local sanitation department to report the issue. In this case, be sure to take notes about how often the company doesn't pick up your garbage or and whether you were able to contact the business.
