Q: Is it cheaper to get a dumpster or go to the dump?

• <div><p>It depends on the amount of trash you need to unload.

Q: What furniture can you not throw in a dumpster?

• <div><p>Most furniture can be thrown in a dumpster, but some areas may have regulations prohibiting you from disposing of mattresses and upholstered furniture in a dumpster.

Q: What is the cheapest way to haul away junk?

• <div><p>The most cost-effective way to haul junk is to load it into a truck and take it to your local waste disposal facility yourself. If you don&rsquo;t have the proper vehicle, consider renting a dumpster and filling it yourself; the dumpster rental company will remove it once it is full. Junk removal services are typically the most expensive way to haul away junk, but also the most time-efficient method that requires the least manual labor from you.</p></div>
