What type and size dumpster should I use for my project?

The size of the dumpster you should rent for your construction project depends on the amount of debris and waste you expect to generate. Here are some general guidelines to help you decide on the right size: 

 For small projects, such as a bathroom remodel or a small landscaping project, a 10-Yard to 15-Yard dumpster may be sufficient. 

 For medium-sized projects, such as a kitchen remodel or a small roof replacement, a 20-yard dumpster may be appropriate. 

 For larger projects, such as a home renovation or a major landscaping project, a 30-yard or 40-yard dumpster may be necessary. 

Also things to consider: 

Cost: Choosing a dumpster that is too small may result in additional trips to dispose of waste, which can increase the rental cost. On the other hand, renting a dumpster that is too large can result in unnecessary fees and charges.

Efficiency: Having the right size dumpster ensures that you have enough space to dispose of all the waste and debris generated by your construction project. This can help keep your project running smoothly and efficiently, without having to take time away from the work to dispose of waste.

Safety: Overfilling a dumpster can create hazards for workers and the public, and can also result in fines or penalties. Renting the right size dumpster can help ensure that waste is properly contained and disposed of in a safe and legal manner.

When deciding on the size of the dumpster you need, consider factors such as the type of materials you will be disposing of, the size and scope of your project, and the duration of your project. It's also important to check with your local dumpster rental company for any specific requirements or restrictions they may have, such as weight limits or prohibited items.

Overall, renting the right size dumpster for your construction project is an important consideration that can help save you time, money, and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

 It's always better to err on the side of caution and rent a slightly larger dumpster than you think you'll need, rather than having to rent an additional dumpster or pay extra fees for overfilling. Timing is also a large factor; make sure you order the dumpster online and schedule it to arrive on a suitable date and time giving the driver instructions as to where to drop the dumpster.
