Get matched with top waste removal pros in Smith River, CA

Most ceiling tiles and the support material that holds them in place can simply go in the garbage, a dumpster, or a landfill, as they're not considered hazardous materials. However, if your home's ceiling tile is older than 1990, it may contain asbestos, which can require testing and special disposal methods.

Household products such as paints, cleaners, oils, and batteries are considered hazardous and should not be disposed of with regular household waste. Instead, look for local household hazardous waste collection facilities where you can safely dispose of these items without harming the environment or human health.

Most people who rent a dumpster choose a 20-yard dumpster, which should be large enough for the following:

A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for the following projects:

• Small bathroom remodel

• Patio or deck demolition

• Small landscaping projects

You might need a 30- or 40-yard dumpster for the following projects:

You can ask your local dumpster rental company what size dumpster you need based on the specific project you have lined up.

There are a few ways you can save money on concrete disposal, including hiring a company that specializes in the service. While you’ll pay for the labor, professional removal companies can save you money on dumping fees if they can recycle or sell the old concrete. If possible, you can also do your own concrete demolition, which can cut down on labor costs. Paying for haul-away service only, you could save between $1.50 and $5.50 per square foot of concrete instead of paying for demolition and removal.
