Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

There are several types of small dumpsters that you can rent, and they all vary slightly in size. Roll-off dumpsters are typically between 10 and 12 yards and are among the most common and convenient options because you can simply roll off your trash rather than removing it by hand. Commercial dumpsters range from 2 to 10 yards in size and are often used to collect daily trash. Finally, bag dumpsters are the smallest option you have at 2 to 5 yards, but they’re also the most inconvenient because you have to personally carry them on and off your truck.

When deciding on renting a dumpster vs. hiring a junk hauler, the project and the items are the important deciding factors. A dumpster rental is best for projects like remodeling, including removing broken tile, drywall, fixtures, or other debris. That way, you can easily throw everything in one safe space to remove for later. 

If you're clearing out boxes or other items like furniture from your home, it's best to hire a professional junk hauling company. They can do the heavy lifting to clear out the unwanted items from your home, which are often heavy or bulky.

When deciding what order to pack your home, starting with non-essential items such as seasonal decor, rarely used kitchenware, and extra linens is always a smart idea. Next, pack decorations and out-of-season clothing. Then move to kitchen items, electronics, and bathroom supplies, leaving essentials for last. Finally, pack a "first-night" box with must-haves like toiletries, clothes, and essential documents.

To get the most out of your dumpster rental, regardless of its placement, you should review what you can put in it and strategically organize your disposal. For instance, putting large items on the bottom helps you save space when it comes to the little stuff at the end of the project.

The length of time you can keep a dumpster in your driveway depends on local guidelines and your rental provider’s policies. Many companies offer rentals for 5 to 10 days, while others allow extended periods. Many cities limit the total dumpster time for residential areas, typically to no more than 30 days per year. To avoid fines or issues, check with your local public works office and your dumpster rental company to understand the specific limits in your area.
