"Excellent company and customer service. Communication was fantastic. Work superior. Highly recommend. Super job and very happy with the results and communication from start to finish. Had a large old shed and playset requiring removal. Also lots of leftover stuff from previous homeowner and yard debris that I created from extensive tree pruning. All of it was removed to perfection. AAA+++"

"Five Brothers Junk Removal exceeded expectations. I posted on Angie’s List and had a callback within 90 seconds — they came out same day for an estimate, and their bid matched my budget exactly. We scheduled the work for day three, and their two-man crew arrived and worked diligently for one solid hour, completing the entire project: old play structures, two oversized 100+ lb sandboxes, tarps, Power Wheels, bikes, yard waste, and debris — all cleared, leaving the yard spotless. The estimate matched the final invoice exactly, and they delivered everything promised, on schedule. Efficient, hardworking, and completely reliable. THE BEST! I’ll be recommending them on every neighborhood app I use. As a Chevy Chase/Bethesda homeowner, I refer Five Brothers with complete confidence. Sara"

"Potomac Pros is fantastic! We had a project to remove trash from our cluster common areas (where homeowners left old fence lumber, tires, etc.) Mauricio and crew were fast & efficient. They kept me informed of the work progress and sent me pictures where trash debris was larger than originally surveyed. They made sure the area was clear so the natural vegetation can grow (and our community mowing service has access to maintain/control natural growth). I would highly recommend Potomac Pros to other clusters (and homeowners) looking for a dependable company to give them a fair quote for their trash removal."

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

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 most common alternative is burning the stump first, then dealing with the cinders and ashes. As you can imagine, this option creates fire hazards, especially since roots can burn underground, hidden, for long afterward. That’s why many states and cities have outlawed the use of stump burning entirely. We do not recommend this option as a viable alternative unless you get a permit from the local fire department and practice all safe burning procedures.

Others prefer a more long-term DIY approach of degrading the stump with home mixtures like Epsom salt and vinegar injected directly into it. This may help the stump decay faster, allowing homeowners to dig it out themselves, but it’s still a lengthy process. It usually takes months for a stump to start falling apart with such treatments, and in the meantime, it can be vulnerable to rot, insects, and other problems.

To cut up a couch for disposal, remove the cushions and fabric first. Then, grab a utility knife to slice the upholstery and expose the frame. Afterward, cut through wood or metal with a handsaw or reciprocating saw. Next, break the couch down into manageable pieces for easier transport and to meet local trash guidelines.

When considering how to dispose of other appliances, a landfill is also usually not an option. The biggest difference is that electrical appliances like refrigerators, washing machines, or dishwashers aren’t as easy to transport as a portable microwave. Some local councils offer bulky uplift services (although a fee may apply), scrap metal recyclers might pick yours up, trade-in options on big items are more common, and some utility companies offer incentivized recycling programs.

How to dispose of excess sealant depends on the type of sealant you need to get rid of. You can simply allow latex or water-based sealants to dry out before including them in your normal household waste. Sealants that contain oils or polyurethanes require disposal at a hazardous waste disposal site or recycling facility.
