Get matched with top dumpster providers in Northport, ME

While the cost to hire a junk removal service varies, the cheapest option would be to dispose of junk on your neighborhood garbage collection day. That being said, you can only dispose of so much on those days and you’d need to ensure the junk is being safely disposed of by referring to community guidelines for what is acceptable on garbage collection day.

Several types of items aren't allowed in roll-off dumpsters. First of all, hazardous materials and hazardous liquids are a no-go. This includes asbestos, oil, wet paint and other materials. Other banned items include batteries, electronics with lithium batteries, propane tanks, tires, and appliances with refrigerants. Some areas have shifting requirements (for instance, certain locations do not allow mattresses), so check with your local regulatory agency.

Permits depend on local regulations concerning street use and public spaces. Check requirements with community authorities to avoid fines or logistical issues.

Finding the right dumpster rental company for your needs requires interviewing companies to ask about rental timelines, costs, and weight limits. Here are some questions you can ask a dumpster rental company you’re considering:

• How long are your standard rental contracts? Can I extend it?

• What is the maximum weight your dumpsters can hold?

• Does the rental include dumping fees?

• Do I need a permit, and will you pull it for me?

• Will you protect my driveway from damage?
