• Be as detailed as you can be about the amount and the type of debris you are going to be putting into the dumpster when you talk to the rental company. They are experts and with their experience, they can give you an accurate estimate of the weight.
• You can avoid the common problem of other people throwing their trash into your dumpster and keep rain from getting in there by covering with it a tarpaulin.

It is especially vital if you chose a 10 yard container over a 20-yard container, because you may have to ultimately pay more if it exceeds the weight limit.
• When in doubt – select the larger size. Inevitably you will save money by the avoidance of overage charges.

Rebuilds and renovations are a dirty and backbreaking business that takes a lot of work and focus. With some luck everything is on track on staying on budget. While ripping out everything including the kitchen sink it’s easy to make huge mounds of waste in the dumpsters.

It probably seems like if everything is inside the dumpster and not laying on the street that you are good to go. There are a few guidelines that should be followed when using rental dumpsters. Safety is always priority #1 and when loading a dumpster you should think about safety. Follow these tips and you will be on your way to a successful remodel or renovation of your home.

Know What Hazardous Waste Is

Most of us don’t consider what we have in our homes as hazardous waste. It doesn’t glow green or give any of us super powers, so it must not be hazardous. When you are remodeling or cleaning out a shed or house there are some products that are common to homes in the United States that are considered hazardous.  The cleaners we have in our homes are considered hazardous, so is paint, solvents, pesticides, and fertilizers. These items should not be thrown in with the construction waste and need to be disposed of at the proper facility, or hazardous waste pickup. The dumpster is also not a place for old electronics. Don’t throw your old computers, TV’s, or batteries in the dumpsters.

Watch The Dumpster Door

Most dumpsters are equipped with doors on one or both ends. These doors are there for the cleaning of dumpsters after they have been used. These doors are commonly opened up for easier loading. While that is not the designed purpose it is a fact of life. If the door is not secured properly when items are being loaded against the door, it can swing open and dump garbage. Not only can this be a hassle but it can be potentially dangerous to people standing in the area, or if a vehicle is parked nearby.

Overfilling the Dumpster

When we pay for something it is human nature to want to get the biggest bang for our buck. While this urge might be hard to resist when piling everything you need to get rid of from your job site it can end up causing you problems. If the dumpster is overfilled it can pose a risk to bystanders. Wind or settling can allow items to move and possibly slide out and fall onto the sidewalk or street. In addition there are states that will not allow the pickup an over filled dumpster.  If this happens you’ll be required to remove the excess waste before the dumpster can be removed.

Lightweight Items In the Dumpster

During renovations there are a lot of lightweight materials that comes out of houses. This lightweight material can get blown out of the dumpster during transport and end up on our highways. The types of lightweight material that are common in renovation projects are things like old wallpaper, fiberglass insulation, cardboard, or even ceiling tiles. Naturally you need to get rid of these materials in the dumpster, but make sure that they are weight down and covered by heavier materials.

Distribute The Weight Evenly

Landscaping and construction projects many times mean getting rid of heavy materials. If all of the heaviest material ends up on one side, or in the back or front of the dumpster it can affect the way the truck drives. For highway safety and the safety of the truck driver it’s best if the weight is evenly distributed in the dumpster.

DIY projects are exciting and intimidating at the same time. Maybe you have already mapped out your process, but what comes after the project is completed? Should you dispose of the waste via junk removal or renting a dumpster? Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of both services.

DIY Projects

There are so many DIY projects that homeowners can tackle. A common project these days is essentially a full bedroom makeover. Homeowners can make and design their own headboards, nightstands and even dressers, in some cases. Building bookshelves is another popular exercise. Generally, this is done to improve upon or replace an old bookshelf. What happens with many of these DIY projects is homeowners underestimate how much waste will be produced. Believing your personal trash cans can hold all the waste can be a huge mistake. So, whether you are taking on a project in the bedroom or living room, look into the possibilities of renting a dumpster or calling a junk removal service.

Other common DIY projects:

• Painting/adding wall art
• Building a custom entertainment center
• Constructing a firepit
• Custom shelfing for storage
• Making a new set of curtains
• Closet shelfing or drawers
• Re-tiling bathroom floors

Dumpster Rentals

There are numerous benefits of choosing a dumpster rental for your upcoming DIY venture. The first pro in the dumpster rental checklist is the safety factor. Being able to dispose of items right away will keep your job site/home as safe as possible. Don’t leave dangerous materials laying around while you wait for a junk removal company. Instead, dispose of them right away, giving you peace of mind. Another benefit is flexibility. Most dumpster companies will give you upwards of ten days to keep the rental. This is definitely enough time to complete any at-home project. You can save money by choosing this route over junk removal, as well. Dumpster rental services offer plenty of sizes of roll off containers, with the smaller sizes working well for at-home cleanings and coming with a much smaller price tag.

• Eco-friendly
• Keeps the home safer
• Peace of mind
• Saves you money

Junk Removal

The first obvious benefit of hiring a junk removal service is it saves you work. Instead of hauling and tossing materials constantly, the professionals will handle everything for you. Saving you work and hassle is the main calling card for these companies. With saving work comes less time spent overall. This way, you can exclusively concentrate on your DIY project instead of worrying about making trips to and from the dumpster. Many of these services will recycle. Just make sure to ask about that ahead of time, if recycling is one of your bigger concerns.

• Less work for the homeowner/commercial property owner
• Saves time
• Recycling options available
