"I’ve used Smith General Contracting twice. Both times were for shingles blown off my roof because of high winds. First time, everything went well. It was raining and needed a responsive service and they showed up within an hour. Fixed it but the cost I thought was extreme for replacing 3 shingles. Second time was this past week where 3 shingles again were ripped off. Wasn’t happy to use them again but no one else even called me back. So they are responsive! But they decided to replace several more, including the area they already worked on earlier in the year. They tell me I need a new roof and I should put in an insurance claim. They again charge me a massive amount of money for 2 hours of work. The son calls Gary after I complain who starts saying his employees make $35/hr, material cost, and taxes. Well added it up and added an extra hour of service time because they had to run and get a packet of shingles. Took them another 30 minutes, but I add an hour. What he charged me was $200 more than the numbers he threw at me during our conversation. Ridiculous. He says you around on Saturday? I say yes. Says I’ll be out at 8:30 AM sharp. We’ll walk the roof, take pictures, and get an estimate for an insurance claim. He ghosted us. No call, didn’t even show up. Steer clear of this company unless you want to overpay and be treated poorly."

Dirt Hauling questions, answered by experts

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

  • Bathroom remodels

  • Home cleanouts

  • Roof replacement

  • Large-scale landscaping projects

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:

  • Large construction projects

  • Large demolition projects

  • Whole home renovations

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

Alternatives to a dumpster include junk removal services and dumpster bags. These are good options if you have limited space and can’t fit a dumpster on your property or if a dumpster isn’t available. You can also take smaller loads of waste to a disposal facility yourself if you have a vehicle that can fit your items.

Yes, many companies recycle concrete, metal, and other materials to minimize landfill waste.

Whether you should demolish your garage or renovate it depends on your needs and the condition of the garage. You might want to build a new garage if yours is too small or in bad shape. However, if your existing garage is simply unsightly, outdated, or needs renovations, a garage remodel is a smart answer. Code changes can require you to do repairs, so talk with your contractor for a personalized bid. 

Sometimes you may be able to leave the bags with your regular trash. However, that’s not always the case. Call your local waste management prior to starting the removal and ask about the proper ways to recycle or dispose of removed insulation. In many cases, your town or municipality has a designated dumpster for building waste.
