"I had been living with piles and piles of trash in all my spaces for over a year before I started reaching out to companies for help. I had contacted 10-15 places on a frantic Saturday, not expecting a fast response. Nicole with Bio One responded to me not only immediately, but with COMPASSION and EMPATHY for what I was going through. Together we made a plan, and four days later she met me in my embarrassingly disgusting apartment and got to work. Throughout the entire process she communicated with me what was happening as I was too embarrassed to stay there while her team worked. They got more done in one day than I could’ve in months. Never once did they make me feel ashamed or embarrassed with anything they did. They sorted through my piles and piles of trash to make sure nothing important would get thrown away. Bio One has changed my life. After just a couple short days of work (I live on the third floor in a walk up if you can imagine how laborious it must’ve been to get box truck after box truck full of trash to the dump), my apartment is completely changed. They organized my kitchen. They washed my dishes. They got the nasty bugs out of my sink and fridge. They cleaned a bathroom that was disgusting. They got my sinks going full power again. They went through my pantry and got rid of moldy food. They made sure I was ok with each step of the process. This is the first time in this apartment that I am able to have a Christmas tree. My dogs have a safe home. I have my life back. Anyone can be hired to throw away trash. But I truly believe that it takes a special type of person to sift through it, clean a home with kindness, and treat the client with compassion and understanding. I felt such despair prior to having Bio One come help me. The estimate was fast (the day I first messaged them), the price was EXTREMELY reasonable, and it is honestly really nice they they want to help you and will work with you. They put the PERSON 1st."

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

The fastest way to remove carpet is to remove carpet in strips instead of trying to remove it in one large piece. Wear protective equipment such as gloves and goggles, use a utility knife to cut the carpet in long strips, and then pull at the edge of the strip to loosen the staples or glue. Carpet-cutting razor blades are best on your utility knife for the quickest removal.

If you choose to break down a piano on your own, a 10-yard dumpster should be large enough to hold the individual parts. Keep in mind that junk haulers may not allow you to place a whole piano in a rollaway dumpster, but this will depend on the company, your contract, and local laws. That being said, choosing the right dumpster size will save you from the headache of over-filling the container during your cleanout.

You cannot put anything you want into a rented dumpster, as there are significant restrictions on certain items.

Generally allowed items include:

  • Household Junk: Furniture, old linens, carpets, toys, small appliances, and excess trash.

  • Construction & Yard Debris: Wood, yard debris, roofing materials, old finishes, and other construction waste.

Commonly prohibited items include:

  • Hazardous Materials: Toxic waste, medical waste, dangerous chemicals, items with lead paint, and asbestos.

  • Flammables: Gasoline, oil, and fuel.

  • Specific Banned Items: Paint cans, electronics, batteries, tires, refrigerators, and hot water tanks.

Because rules can vary, you should always check with your specific dumpster rental company for their guidelines if you are unsure about an item.

The cost of biohazard cleanup averages between $3,000 and $5,000 for most homeowners. Some services, like sanitizing high-traffic areas or sanitizing surfaces from a virus, cost closer to $1,500. However, other circumstances, like the extensive cleanup after a major sewer backup, could cost as much as $25,000. 

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.
