To calculate how many dumpsters you need for your disposal project, take a close look at the number of items you’ll be disposing of and estimate or measure the total in cubic yards. From there, you can have the dumpster rental company inform you of their dumpsters’ capacities to determine how many you need.

In most municipalities, you won’t need a permit for a dumpster if it’s parked in your driveway or yard, but this varies by location. You should always check with your local Department of Transportation or junk removal company to determine if you’ll need a permit. If you need to park your dumpster in the street, you will likely need a permit. Permit fees for dumpsters are usually affordable, totaling between $25 and $75. Your garbage removal company should pull the permit for you and just pass the permit fee to you via your invoice.

The cost of junk removal services for private garbage collection factors in wages for labor, the cost of maintaining and operating vehicles and trailers to haul garbage to a dump or recycling center. Landfills also charge a fee to dump garbage, which varies depending on what kind of waste it is. 

Choosing a junk disposal method begins with considering what kind of junk you’re getting rid of. If it’s hazardous waste, you’ll be more limited in your options and will either need to haul it to a dedicated disposal facility yourself or find a junk removal company that works with hazardous materials. If it’s general waste and mostly consists of small items, renting a dumpster is a great way to save money if you and some friends can move the junk into the dumpster yourselves. To save time and energy, though, hiring a junk hauler is the best option.
