The best way to determine the right dumpster size for your project is to speak with a reputable dumpster rental company. Let them know what kind of job you're doing and the types of materials you'll be disposing of. These professionals have experience fitting heavy and bulky items into their dumpsters and can guide you on how to dispose of everything safely and legally. A representative should be able to recommend the best dumpster for your needs. Often, the company will advise you to choose a slightly larger size to help you avoid potential overage charges.

Most municipal or waste management companies do not allow you to put out a refrigerator for regular trash pickup. You can, however, call your waste management company and ask about the proper steps for “special” or bulk pickup (if it’s offered) or information about local community programs offering refrigerator recycling.

If your old bricks are in decent condition and you have the space to store them where they’ll be protected from the elements, keeping old bricks is often worthwhile. You’d spend anywhere from $70 to a few hundred dollars to have them removed from your property, in which case you won’t be able to use them for future projects. Holding on to old bricks in good condition means you can use them later for other DIY projects, potentially saving yourself some money on disposal and new materials down the road.

No, you can’t throw anything in a dumpster. For example, organic waste should not be thrown in a dumpster. While you can throw recyclable materials in a dumpster, it is encouraged to separate them and properly recycle them for the sake of the environment.
