"Great experience, very prompt and courteous . It was a small job (removed an old couch for disposal), but got it done very quickly and efficiently. Very local for me in Damariscotta and was extremely affordable ($140 less than the only other quote I could get). Very satisfied and would recommend to anyone."

"Im a realtor and use/recommend Arwood waste for junk removal/dumpsters on properties that have renovations or rental cleanup. Cheapest Ive found and has always been right on time while providing a professional service. Last time I needed junk removal was for a home we were selling where the renter destroyed the home and left it full of junk and trash. The young man for Arwood Waste showed up a little early and removed all junk from inside and out on the driveway which required two loads. I came back to inspect and was surprised to see that not only was the junk/trash removed but both inside the house and the driveway had been cleaned and swept. I did not expect that...worthy of me coming online to write a review."

"Perfect service. They were early and very responsive, answered all and any questions I had. Was very professional. The gentleman and his helper were very strong.. like, I have never seen someone just pick up a dresser and go! They were very punctual, they were very very good at their jobs, very courteous. I have never met anybody in the state of Bangor Maine who is more courteous and better at their job than this company. I would recommend, 10 out of 10, if I could, I would give him a hundred stars! I highly recommend Bob Young and his crew to come out for either your landscaping or your junk removal. Very courteous and he was not expensive, he works with you on a budget, he is just overall a great person and he has a great company. I highly recommend!"

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for small amounts of waste. Professional services handle larger volumes efficiently.

You should never pour antifreeze down the drain or outside on the ground. Because it's highly toxic, antifreeze can still impact people and animals long after it drains. Antifreeze can contaminate water and sewage systems, and any that gets into storm drains and water supplies can attract animals and harm those that ingest it.

Seal bags firmly for materials like soil or mulch, store unused parts in dry and cool spaces to prevent decay and use material visually formed covers for extended periods.

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.

To eliminate waste without polluting, consider whether it can be recycled, reused, or donated. However, hazardous waste, such as chemicals or electronics, requires special handling and disposal to prevent it from polluting landfills. Organic waste can be composted or converted into fuel at a biogas generation facility.
