"I've used The Dump Guy twice now. This last time, I needed our basement cleaned out so we could have a leaking oil tank removed. They gave us an estimate of $1,500 and came out the same week. I know the job was bigger than they expected but the crew stayed at it. Among other things, they hauled out an old stand-up freezer and two large, metal desks. When they were done, I asked how much I owed them and Jason stuck to the estimate. I'll definitely hire The Dump Guy again because they are reliable, honest, and easy to work with."

"Keith and his team did a great job. They showed up on time, were enthusiastic. They were very careful when moving the furniture so there were no issues with ding or scrapes in walls and they were respectful of light fixtures. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing moving services"

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

Unlike other types of roofing materials, metal roofs are among the most sustainable because they can almost always be recycled after they’re no longer useful. Once your old roof is removed, contact your local recycling facility to find out what you can and can’t leave with them. While most accept all the types of metals used in roofing, you may need to make an advance appointment to drop off such a large delivery.

The only packing material that isn’t often recyclable is rubber, but rubber bands aren’t common for packing and moving. Some materials used for moving, like cardboard, paper, and hard plastic, are easy to recycle and can often just go out for regular pickup with your other recyclables, like cans and bottles. Plastic films and packing peanuts can be a bit more difficult to recycle and usually need to go to a dedicated recycling facility that can handle those specific materials.

When considering how to dispose of other appliances, a landfill is also usually not an option. The biggest difference is that electrical appliances like refrigerators, washing machines, or dishwashers aren’t as easy to transport as a portable microwave. Some local councils offer bulky uplift services (although a fee may apply), scrap metal recyclers might pick yours up, trade-in options on big items are more common, and some utility companies offer incentivized recycling programs.

In some areas, tipping garbage and recycling workers around the holidays is a kind and common practice. Tipping between $20 and $50 once a year is a kind gesture for a team you've gotten to know or who does an exemplary job. While tipping junk haulers and waste management pros is not expected, it is a great way to show your appreciation.

Yes, a mattress will fit in a 10-yard dumpster. While a 10-yard dumpster is a compact roll-off dumpster size, it can still hold about 60 standard trash bags or 5,000 pounds of waste. They're ideal for small demo or renovation projects, appliances or furniture, and yard waste.
