"They arrived on time as scheduled. The dirt delivered was excellent quality and not full of large clumps ! It was easy to spread in the yard. I have had dirt delivered in the past, but never the quality of Titan"
"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."
"Josh did a great job. He was easy to reach and responded quickly. He did an amazing job on our overgrown back yard, and got it to a place where it was manageable again."
"He did a really good job and I was very happy with his work. He was on time and very professional. I would highly recommend him to others and will probably have him back out to clean up my yard again next spring."
"Norbert and his team did a wonderful job weeding our landscape and trimming the small bushes. They did the job we hired them for in a timely and efficient manner. I would hire them again."
"They were 1 of the 2 companies suggested. Reached out to both and only S&C responded. The young man called back with in a few hours, came to the house, gave us a estimate. We thought that was a fair price and hired him on the spot. This young man did a wonderful job, gave us the backyard we loved and it only took him 2 days to clear a severly over grown yard and to clean up a large tree that fell. He worked by himself, in the heat and never complained. He was always pleasant, smiling and very courteous. I would hire this young man again as he has a great work Ethics. On a scale of 1 to 10 ,he rates a 20 in my book.
Will refer him to family and friends with no hesitation."
To prepare your yard for river rocks, smaller rocks may require laying landscape fabric to keep the stones from sinking into the ground while encouraging proper water drainage. You should also clear the land of weeds and larger boulders and, in some cases, test the density of the soil to ensure it can handle the weight.
While a rented dumpster can handle a wide variety of materials, there are significant restrictions on what is allowed. Generally, you can dispose of most non-hazardous household junk, yard waste, and construction debris.
Accepted items typically include:
Furniture, carpets, old linens, and toys
Wood and yard debris
Small appliances and excess trash
Renovation waste like old finishes, building debris, and roofing materials (unless they contain lead paint or asbestos)
However, you cannot put toxic, flammable, or hazardous materials in a dumpster. Prohibited items almost always include:
Paint, gasoline, oil, and other fuels
Household cleaners and other chemicals
Electronics, batteries, and tires
Refrigerators, hot water tanks, and medical waste
Since regulations can vary by location and company, it is essential to check with your dumpster rental provider for their specific list of accepted and prohibited items before you begin.
The fastest way to rid your yard of pesky stickers or burs is to go mechanical on them with a lawn mower or garden rake. Use a lawnmower with a bagger attachment to avoid spreading the seeds around and causing a bigger issue. If you choose to rake the stickers off the plants, be sure to dispose of them properly. Avoid putting them in with the composting and check local guidelines for disposing of lawn waste.
The legality of blowing leaves into the street depends on your city or county laws. Many cities have codes that restrict blowing leaves into the street because it can obstruct the view of nearby drivers and make cars dirty, not to mention angering neighbors. Violations can result in a fine or other problems. You can check the codes on your municipal government website to learn more local guidelines, but avoid spraying leaves into streets for now.
