"Steve from Heavenly Hauling did a great job removing a downed tree limb from my yard, at a reasonable price. I would definitely use his services again and will share his contact information with my neighbors."

"Justin and his crew displayed great sensitivity during an emotional time, kept in constant contact, sent updates and photos throughout, and worked to proactively set aside sentimental items that I overlooked. He worked closely with my real estate agent to get this house, which was incredibly stuffed, cleared out in record time. This was immeasurably helpful to me as I am out of state and he handled it as if it were his own property. I have already hired him to clean out additional storage units, knowing that they are in good hands!"

Hauling questions, answered by experts

Cardboard is one of the easiest leftover packing materials to upcycle, as you can cut it and glue it to create crafts, drawer organizers, weed blockers for your garden, templates for woodworking, and more—your creativity is your only limitation. Plastic is best for crafts, but depending on the shape, you can use plastic components as indoor planters, organizational baskets, and more. Rubber bands are great for creating grips for jar or bottle lids, preventing clothes from falling off of hangers, or creating a grip for screws in damaged wood.

Only throw soil in a dumpster rental if you have permission in your contract to do so. Organic materials such as soil often make the list of items that shouldn't go in a dumpster, but this depends on the agreement. Some dumpster companies will accept non-contaminated soil as well as rocks, yard debris, and compost.

To take advantage of any deals on ordering gravel in bulk, it can also be beneficial in the long run to work on other gravel projects you plan to complete someday. These may include filling in a gravel driveway, building a patio, constructing a fire pit area , planning a garden walkway, or using stone instead of mulch in your flower beds.

It’s not difficult to dispose of wood pellet ash, but you should always let it cool completely before disposal to avoid it sparking a fire. If you’ve got an energy-efficient pellet stove, there shouldn’t be much to empty from the ash box, anyway. However, once the ash has cooled, you might consider composting it or simply adding it to your garden or plant soil. The ash is full of minerals, not chemicals, so it’s a wonderful fertilizer for grass and plants.

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.
