"Excellent transaction! The Viking Junk Removal guys who came to take my extremely heavy Traeger grill down 12 steps from my deck were so professional and friendly. I called in the morning and they came out in the evening. I would not hesitate to do business with them again!"

"The gentleman that we worked with was very professional. He was in constant communication and provided a quote and a timeframe in which the work would be done. Once we accepted the quote, he communicated prior to arrival to give us confirmation that he was on his way and even arrived half an hour early. Highly recommend and will definitely use again if the need arises"

Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

While a rented dumpster can handle a wide variety of materials, there are significant restrictions on what is allowed. Generally, you can dispose of most non-hazardous household junk, yard waste, and construction debris.

Accepted items typically include:

  • Furniture, carpets, old linens, and toys

  • Wood and yard debris

  • Small appliances and excess trash

  • Renovation waste like old finishes, building debris, and roofing materials (unless they contain lead paint or asbestos)

However, you cannot put toxic, flammable, or hazardous materials in a dumpster. Prohibited items almost always include:

  • Paint, gasoline, oil, and other fuels

  • Household cleaners and other chemicals

  • Electronics, batteries, and tires

  • Refrigerators, hot water tanks, and medical waste

Since regulations can vary by location and company, it is essential to check with your dumpster rental provider for their specific list of accepted and prohibited items before you begin.

When used properly according to the rental safety guidelines, a dumpster is safe to use. To avoid injury, use safety precautions like work gloves and sturdy shoes, load the dumpster as recommended by the rental company with heavier items going in first, don’t overload the dumpster, and don’t put hazardous or prohibited material inside the dumpster.

You can only take your grill to the dump in some circumstances. Some landfills won’t accept grills due to their size, electronic parts, fire risk, or other reasons. Those that do may charge a fee. Call ahead for information to find out if your local dump will accept your old grill. They may instruct you to take your grill to a specific bulk drop-off location or event in your community instead.

If waste is not collected, you must first determine the reason why. Once you know your area's trash pickup rules and restrictions, you can contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or take your trash to the appropriate disposal facility.

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.
