Depending on the type and amount of junk, you could be looking at a very labor-intensive job, dumping fees, dumpster charges, and potentially unsafe working conditions. Hiring a professional junk removal company not only saves you time and energy and keeps you safe, but it also means you don’t have to worry about carting the junk away or coordinating a dumpster and getting a permit for it.

The best way to determine the best dumpster size for your project is to speak with the dumpster rental company. These professionals have specific experience with fitting heavy and bulky items in their dumpsters and how to dispose of each item safely and legally. In most cases, the dumpster company will err on the side of caution and advise you to size up to avoid overage charges.
