Lost Lake Construction is a veteran-owned company based in northern Minnesota. I'm Dave Berry — I've spent 20+ years in the trades and run a crew of four, so we handle everything from a single afternoon's work to a full-scale build.\nBig job or small, we do it: junk removal and hauling, landscaping and yard cleanup, brush clearing, kitchen and bath remodels, basement finishing, decks, siding, roofing, concrete, painting, and general handyman work. We also specialize in custom fine finish carpentry, log construction, and standing seam metal roofing — the kind of work most crews around here won't take on.\nI'm a licensed Minnesota Residential Building Contractor (BC809295) and fully insured. You'll deal with me directly, not a call center. Free estimates, straight pricing, and a clean job site when we leave.\nGive me a call and let's talk about what you need done.

"Good service in certain ways but brought me sofa full of fire ants and broken big screen TV. Their sales pitch claimed they own their fleet but all I saw were Ryder rental trucks. Only my initial deposit was paid directly to mayzlin. I can't get anybody on the phone to talk about broken TV."
"They did contact me with an email right away. The only thing was, I got a dumpster with another company at a cheaper price. It was only a dumpster, so we went with the cheapest company for the same dumpster"
A dumpster is a dumpster, right? Maybe, but the company behind the container is crucial. In our history we have built a reputation for responsiveness, on-time delivery and pickup, and personal service that begins with the first phone call. We are successful because we keep our promises to contractors, homeowners and businesses throughout the nation.
"I was very protective of how much limbing had to be done. We had some sick branches up high and we were concerned about loosing the tree altogether at some point. Jesse kept assureing me that it would fill back in and it would be ok. Only time will tell on that account, at this time I am confindent he knows that it will. All and all good experince. "
"It was really wonderful. I have not had a lot of time, and I tried to have moving sales ahead of time. My business was merging with another company so I had to get rid of a lot of things. They made it really easy to contact them. They responded via text message immediately when I emailed them. They understood my needs and they went above and beyond to make it work with my limited time schedule. Also, they were really fun to work with during a very stressful time. They were very accommodating and they focused on putting a smile on my face as they worked. I would recommend them to anyone who asks."

Costs depend on waste volume, service frequency, and additional options like bulk pickups.
An empty 20-foot shipping container weighs between 3,970 and 4,850 pounds. Once you’ve added your belongings, that weight will increase significantly.
The smallest dumpsters typically available for rent are 2 cubic yards. These are ideal for small cleanup jobs, minor home remodeling projects, or decluttering a garage. A 2-cubic-yard dumpster can generally hold around 400 pounds and often measures about 6 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet high. The cost to rent one typically ranges from $75 to $200 per week.
For even smaller jobs, or as an alternative, you can consider a dumpster bag. These come in various sizes (often 2 to 5 cubic yards) and can cost between $100 and $180 per week. Other small dumpster types include commercial dumpsters (starting at 2 yards) and small roll-off dumpsters (which usually start at 10 yards).
Junk removal usually includes removing unwanted items from your property, loading it into a dumpster or a truck, and then carting the junk off of your property to be disposed of at a dump site. In most cases, your dumping fees—charged by the dump site—are included in your estimate, but you might want to confirm this expense with your junk removal team. Some junk removal companies offer additional services, like a deep clean after junk removal and moving and packing services, in case you’re getting rid of garbage as part of your relocation efforts.
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.
