Get matched with top dumpster providers in Almo, KY

Most furniture can be thrown in a dumpster, but some areas may have regulations prohibiting you from disposing of mattresses and upholstered furniture in a dumpster. The dumpster rental company will provide guidelines for what you can and can’t put in a dumpster, and you can also check local regulations to see what’s prohibited.

That depends on how much junk you have. For individual items, hiring a junk removal company is often more cost-effective. However, if you’re doing a major cleanout or completing a large home improvement project, renting a dumpster may be more cost-effective. On average, dumpster rental costs $300 to $480 per week.

Junk removal usually includes removing unwanted items from your property, loading it into a dumpster or a truck, and then carting the junk off of your property to be disposed of at a dump site. In most cases, your dumping fees—charged by the dump site—are included in your estimate, but you might want to confirm this expense with your junk removal team. Some junk removal companies offer additional services, like a deep clean after junk removal and moving and packing services, in case you’re getting rid of garbage as part of your relocation efforts.

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.
