"We had an above ground oil tank removed from the basement. The staff were professional. They came in and had the project done within a few hours which included removing the remaining oil, cutting the tank and removing the remaining lines. The oil smell was intense, but they had a spray or something that they used to minimize the smell. We are very pleased with the services."

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

You cannot put anything you want into a rented dumpster, as there are significant restrictions on certain items.

Generally allowed items include:

  • Household Junk: Furniture, old linens, carpets, toys, small appliances, and excess trash.

  • Construction & Yard Debris: Wood, yard debris, roofing materials, old finishes, and other construction waste.

Commonly prohibited items include:

  • Hazardous Materials: Toxic waste, medical waste, dangerous chemicals, items with lead paint, and asbestos.

  • Flammables: Gasoline, oil, and fuel.

  • Specific Banned Items: Paint cans, electronics, batteries, tires, refrigerators, and hot water tanks.

Because rules can vary, you should always check with your specific dumpster rental company for their guidelines if you are unsure about an item.

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.

No, you can’t. Don't make your old paint someone else's problem by dumping it in a public dumpster or garbage bin. You may be able to throw away water- or latex-based paint after you dry it out, but be sure to check your local regulations and follow the steps above. If you have a lot of paint cans to get rid of, the cost of renting a dumpster may be worth it. 

In some locations, regular sanitation will pick up large appliances at no cost, but in others, you’ll need to pay for “special pickup” or “bulk pickup.” While the cost of these services is usually less than hiring an appliance removal company, it’s still worth considering because they will disconnect the appliance and get it out of your home. This appliance removal service is especially worth it multiple doorways or flights of stairs leading from the appliance to the exterior.

How you get rid of old, expired paint or a mostly empty can of paint depends on the type and the rules where you live. If you have an empty, dried-out can of latex paint, you can often dispose of it with your household trash. 

For cans that still have some paint in them or for oil-based paint, your best bet is to contact a junk removal service or your municipality to see what its requirements are for paint disposal.
