A dumpster rental may be the answer you need to get rid of all that extra trash in your life, but what’s the first step you should take in making this decision? The question above is a great place to start and can help gauge whether renting a dumpster is worth your time, money, and effort. Ultimately, each project will be different, so no two questions will be alike. But taking the time to ask these questions is half the battle to make the right choice for your needs.

How Much Waste Will I Generate?

The size of the dumpster bin you will need will be determined by the project you’re undertaking and how much waste it’s likely to generate. However, you also have several other factors to keep in mind. For example, you’ll have to consider where your bin will be stored once it’s full. If this location isn’t accessible for other people to access, you might have to schedule regular pick-up visits from your trash and recycling hauler.

Working with an expert like us will allow you to better understand how much waste you’ll generate, what your best options are for a bin, and ultimately whether or not a bin is right for the project you have in mind.

Will my Service Provider be Able to Handle the Increased Volume?

In this case, it may be worth talking with your waste disposal service provider to see if they have a policy on weight limits and other factors that may help you avoid unwanted fees and surprises.

You can increase your chances of finding the right dumpster service for your project by selecting a bin that’s the right size for your job. By doing a little bit of research before choosing a service and asking the right questions once they’re on your shortlist, you can find a waste disposal company that will take care of your needs quickly and easily.

What Type of Waste will I be Dealing With?

If you need help determining what kind of waste you’ll be dealing with, start by asking yourself the questions above and seeing if they match up with what you’ll be dealing with, like light materials like paper or cardboard and heavier materials like concrete or lumber. This will allow you to easily compare your service options and determine the best fit for you.

Using a smaller bin while removing as much waste as possible is your best bet if you have light materials. If not, renting a larger container will likely save you time and money in the long run.

How Long will my project Take?

When planning for your next project, consider how long the project will take. This is also worth considering when renting a dumpster because many factors can affect both your price and your plan for your project. For example, your choice of size will dictate how much waste can fit into the bin. Consider whether or not the dumpster includes features like an open top or whether it will be raised off the ground by supporters.
