"Top-notch service! Jimmy and his crew were courteous and professional at all times and I am very happy with the quality of their work. For demo & disposal, my new driveway was protected as the 20yd dumpster never left the back of the truck. His guys also moved a 300lb treadmill for me up a flight of stairs into a room on the second floor without any bumps or bruises. I recommend A Man With a Van & More without reservation."

"The junk boys are the pinnacle of hard work. After my spring cleaning I had a pile of junk I no longer needed, after putting off the work of removing my junk for too long I figured there had to be a better way. The junk boys answered my prayers. They were professional as they treated me with the utmost respect. They were efficient: I ran out for some errands and when I returned everything was gone. If you are looking for a professional, quick, easy, and efficient junk removal service I see no better option than the junk boys. Furthermore, they are a small business which I always love hiring over any other big option. Can’t say enough about how much I appreciated the Junk Boys service"

Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

The most affordable way to get rid of junk often involves a do-it-yourself approach, especially if you don't have a large amount of debris. Start by sorting your items into categories: donate, recycle, sell, or trash.

  • Donate or Sell: Usable goods can be donated to local charities. You can also list items for free or for a low price on platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist.

  • Use Municipal Services: Your city's regular garbage collection or bulk pickup days can be the cheapest option. However, be sure to check community guidelines for quantity limits and accepted materials. You can also take recyclables to a city drop-off center.

  • Haul it Yourself: If you have a truck or suitable vehicle, loading the junk and taking it to a local transfer station, public dump, or waste disposal facility is a very cost-effective method.

If a DIY approach isn't possible, consider these options:

  • Rent a Dumpster: You can rent a dumpster, fill it yourself, and the rental company will haul it away. This is a good middle-ground if you can do the labor but don't have a vehicle for transport.

  • Hire a Junk Removal Service: While typically the most expensive choice, hiring a professional junk removal team is the most time-efficient and requires the least effort from you. This is a good solution if your city's services won't accept the items or if you are unable to move them yourself.

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.

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.

If waste is not collected, you must first determine the reason why. Once you know your area's trash pickup rules and restrictions, you can contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or take your trash to the appropriate disposal facility.

Yes, construction materials like tile, lumber, drywall, and hardware can be disposed of in a dumpster, just not in your regular garbage. As you’re planning your project, just make sure to rent the correct size of dumpster based on the scope of your needs and be aware of weight limits. Tile weighs a lot (along with other construction materials), and your costs could increase if you exceed the weight limit in your contract with the dumpster provider.
