"Project was never completed. Paid over half the cost of the project. Don completed a portion of the project, but then he never came back to finish the project. Called and texted him numerous times to no avail. I wish I had read reviews from previous customers posted here before I hired him. BUYERS BEWARE and do your research."

Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

For most homeowners, it’s cheaper to rent rather than buy a dumpster. However, if you expect to need the dumpster for a long-term project, it might be more cost-effective to buy a dumpster instead. However, most homeowners rent a dumpster, while construction companies or commercial businesses may prefer to buy one.

You can cut costs and expedite the process of junk removal by following a few essential steps. Use these methods to save on junk removal costs:

  • Sorting items and debris into one area to reduce sorting costs. 

  • Contacting local charities or donation centers for free or reduced-cost pickup of donations.

  • For tree-related items like branches, advertise to community members looking for free firewood.

  • Conduct one large clean-out instead of many smaller ones to reduce materials and labor costs.

The average cost to rent a dumpster is around $400, but you could pay as low as $200 or up to $800 or more, depending on a few factors. The size of the dumpster is one of the biggest factors, with $400 covering a standard 20-yard dumpster, lower prices covering smaller ones, and higher prices covering up to a 40-yard dumpster. You might pay higher prices if you need access to the dumpster for longer than the standard week, as might be the case if you’re doing demolition or a large home renovation project.

No, you can’t throw anything in a dumpster. For example, organic waste should not be thrown in a dumpster. While you can throw recyclable materials in a dumpster, it is encouraged to separate them and properly recycle them for the sake of the environment.

One of the best ways to reduce packaging waste is to purchase materials that are made using recycled materials. While these don’t eliminate waste, they do help provide uses for old packaging materials and prevent the need to collect more raw ingredients for continued manufacturing. Recycling those same products helps complete the cycle and reduces the need for new materials in the supply chain. You can also upcycle some packing materials, like cardboard and plastic, for use in crafts and organizational tools.
