If you’re planning a big project that will produce lots of mess, renting a roll-off dumpster may be the answer. These types of containers are frequently used for commercial jobs however, they can also come in handy for home projects as well. To get started, here’s what to consider when selecting which one is best suited to you so you can make sure your project runs smoothly.
What Size do You Need
Choosing the right size dumpster for your project is critical. With sizes ranging from 2 yards to 40 yards, there’s an array of options available including 10-, 20-, 30- and 40-yard models. These large rental containers are perfect for residential projects while smaller varieties such as those under 10 yards are best suited to commercial needs like apartments, hotels, or restaurants.
A 10-yard dumpster can hold the equivalent of around three pickup truck loads of debris, or about 10 cubic yards of material. This size is suitable for small renovations or cleanouts.
A 20-yard dumpster can hold up to about six truckloads of debris, or around 110-130 trash bags. This size is good for roofing, small construction projects, landscaping projects, or flooring removal.
A 30-yard dumpster can fit about nine truckloads of debris and is suitable for complete house cleanouts, major remodeling jobs, or large landscaping projects.
A 40-yard dumpster, which can hold about 12 truckloads of debris, is suitable for large house cleanouts, huge remodeling projects, and roofing jobs.
What You’ll Pay
When it comes to dumpster rental prices, there are many potential factors that must be taken into account. These include the size of the unit and duration of use, as well as what type and amount of waste you’re disposing of, and the possible fees for dumping at a landfill may also come into play. Depending on the company there can be fixed or variable rates with each having its own pros and cons.
When estimating the cost of a dumpster rental, remember to factor in extra fees that could come into play. Putting too much waste inside your dumpster can cause overflow or overloading fees from your provider. Additionally, if placing it on public property like streets and sidewalks and sometimes even driveways consider obtaining clearance for this action by applying for a permit with your local city or homeowner’s association.
Choosing the Right Dumpster Rental Company
When choosing a dumpster rental company, be sure to ask about their pricing and fees, the size and availability of their dumpsters, their policies on overfilling, and their permit requirements. You should also ask about their pickup and delivery schedules and their customer service policies.
