Is it worth hiring a professional for garbage removal?

• <div><p>Garbage removal is a project you can do yourself, but hiring a professional to get the job done is often worthwhile. Depending on the type and amount of junk, you could be looking at a very labor-intensive job, dumping fees, dumpster charges, and potentially unsafe working conditions. Hiring a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/7-signs-quality-junk-removal-services.htm">professional junk removal company</a> not only saves you time and energy and keeps you safe, but it also means you don’t have to worry about carting the junk away or coordinating a dumpster and getting a permit for it.</p></div>

What size dumpster do I need?

• <div><p>Most people who rent a dumpster choose a 20-yard dumpster, which should be large enough for the following:</p><ul><li><p>Bathroom remodels</p></li><li><p>Home cleanouts</p></li><li><p>Roof replacement</p></li><li><p>Large-scale landscaping projects</p></li></ul><p>A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for the following projects:</p><ul><li><p>Small bathroom remodel</p></li><li><p>Patio or deck demolition</p></li><li><p>Small landscaping projects</p></li></ul><p>You might need a 30- or 40-yard dumpster for the following projects:</p><ul><li><p>Large construction projects</p></li><li><p>Large demolition projects</p></li><li><p>Whole home renovations</p></li></ul><p>You can ask your local dumpster rental company what size dumpster you need based on the specific project you have lined up.</p></div>

Q: How long is the typical rental period for dumpsters?

• <div><p>Clear driveway space, ensure unobstructed pathways, and cover surfaces beneath. Noise and traffic considerations matter in residential areas.</p></div>

Q: How do I calculate how many dumpsters I need?

• <div><p>To calculate how many dumpsters you need for your disposal project, take a close look at the number of items you&rsquo;ll be disposing of and estimate or measure the total in cubic yards. From there, you can have the dumpster rental company inform you of their dumpsters&rsquo; capacities to determine how many you need.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal company?

• <div><p>That depends on how much junk you have. For individual items, hiring a junk removal company is often more cost-effective. However, if you&rsquo;re doing a major cleanout or completing a large home improvement project, renting a dumpster may be more cost-effective. On average, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-dumpster-rental.htm">dumpster rental costs</a> <b>$300 to $480 per week</b>. </p></div>

Since I have spent two months going back and fourth over this issue I have given up (I now open the soap container by hand each time I run a wash.) Part of the reason I gave up was because I was tired of telling my story every single time I called; they don't keep records of complaints it...
