Yes, you need shipping insurance. Don’t hesitate; it’s worth the cost. There’s always a chance for accidents and errors when transporting household goods, so it's good to be prepared for various circumstances, including bad weather, loss, and disabled ships at sea. Some providers include insurance in their rental prices while others add it separately. It’s also a smart idea to check in with your renters or homeowners insurance provider and ask about coverage included in your policy. 

To get the most out of your dumpster rental, regardless of its placement, you should review what you can put in it and strategically organize your disposal. For instance, putting large items on the bottom helps you save space when it comes to the little stuff at the end of the project.

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.

There are several types of small dumpsters that you can rent, and they all vary slightly in size. Roll-off dumpsters are typically between 10 and 12 yards and are among the most common and convenient options because you can simply roll off your trash rather than removing it by hand. Commercial dumpsters range from 2 to 10 yards in size and are often used to collect daily trash. Finally, bag dumpsters are the smallest option you have at 2 to 5 yards, but they’re also the most inconvenient because you have to personally carry them on and off your truck.
