Get matched with top dumpster providers in Sunbury, PA

The cheapest junk removal option is often through your city's bulk trash and recycling program, but this depends on the item in question. If your city doesn't accept the type of debris you want to remove, hiring a local junk removal team or renting a dumpster is your best bet. Additionally, research local dumps open to the public if the debris safely fits in your car.

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.

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.

While the cost to hire a junk removal service varies, the cheapest option would be to dispose of junk on your neighborhood garbage collection day. That being said, you can only dispose of so much on those days and you’d need to ensure the junk is being safely disposed of by referring to community guidelines for what is acceptable on garbage collection day.
