"Jason promptly responded to my inquiry. Called me to go over the details of my pool needs. Was able to set up an appointment within 48 hours. He assessed, pleasantly explained, and even willing to teach a bit on how the management of the pool should be handled. Hired him for maintenace for the whole summer so that we can enjoy the pool we worked so hard to have."

Dumpster Service FAQs, answered by experts

The most affordable way to get rid of junk often involves a do-it-yourself approach, especially if you don't have a large amount of debris. Start by sorting your items into categories: donate, recycle, sell, or trash.

  • Donate or Sell: Usable goods can be donated to local charities. You can also list items for free or for a low price on platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist.

  • Use Municipal Services: Your city's regular garbage collection or bulk pickup days can be the cheapest option. However, be sure to check community guidelines for quantity limits and accepted materials. You can also take recyclables to a city drop-off center.

  • Haul it Yourself: If you have a truck or suitable vehicle, loading the junk and taking it to a local transfer station, public dump, or waste disposal facility is a very cost-effective method.

If a DIY approach isn't possible, consider these options:

  • Rent a Dumpster: You can rent a dumpster, fill it yourself, and the rental company will haul it away. This is a good middle-ground if you can do the labor but don't have a vehicle for transport.

  • Hire a Junk Removal Service: While typically the most expensive choice, hiring a professional junk removal team is the most time-efficient and requires the least effort from you. This is a good solution if your city's services won't accept the items or if you are unable to move them yourself.

No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.

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

Most people who rent a dumpster choose a 20-yard dumpster, which should be large enough for the following:

  • Bathroom remodels

  • Home cleanouts

  • Roof replacement

  • Large-scale landscaping projects

A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for the following projects:

  • Small bathroom remodel

  • Patio or deck demolition

  • Small landscaping projects

You might need a 30- or 40-yard dumpster for the following projects:

  • Large construction projects

  • Large demolition projects

  • Whole home renovations

You can ask your local dumpster rental company what size dumpster you need based on the specific project you have lined up.

A dump trailer consists of an open box bed with a short barrier that’s equipped with wheels and can be easily attached to a vehicle for transportation. This option is a favorite because it’s easy to navigate to and from destinations and is ideal for hauling small waste quantities. On the flip side, a dumpster may not have such features and will need to be loaded onto rather than attached to a vehicle to get it where you want to go. Check out the cost to rent a dump trailer or even the cost of junk removal when deciding between your options.
