Looking into getting a dumpster? We highly recommend it! As you know, dumpsters are a convenient way to get rid of large amounts of trash. Throwing everything in a dumpster can be a tempting prospect, but only certain materials should go in your dumpster. Here's an overview of what our roll off dumpster rental clients tend to use them for.
In our experience, a large percentage of dumpster rentals are for trash. Standard household trash and old furniture are perfectly acceptable to throw in a dumpster. It’s also quite common for landlords or property owners to rent dumpsters if tenants leave the house full of trash or clean out garages. Dumpster rental is an efficient way to eliminate large amounts of garbage.
According to the EPA, 23.1% of solid waste generated consists of paper and paperboard products. Paper and cardboard can pile up quickly, but most trash companies will only take so much cardboard. Many encourage you to recycle it instead of throwing it away, but taking it to the recycling center can be time-consuming. If you have significant amounts of paper or cardboard, like a garage full of Amazon boxes, a dumpster rental can help you clean everything up within days.
Construction projects are known for generating large amounts of waste. Ripping down a wall creates piles of old drywall that must be disposed of. Most trash companies won’t take demolition or construction debris. You’ll also have electric wires, metal, wood, and other materials to dispose of. It’s fine to throw all these in a
roll off dumpster rental instead of hauling them to the dump.
Yard waste is a pain to get rid of. Most trash companies refuse to take yard waste like brush and dead leaves. This is because it takes up a lot of space in landfills. In some states, you also can’t burn yard waste. These states have an open burn ban, meaning you’re not supposed to burn cardboard boxes either. In these cases, a dumpster rental is the best choice.
As you might imagine, it’s also necessary to know what to avoid putting in your dumpster. We highly recommend asking your provider for a list of banned substances, but in general, you should never put toxic chemicals or hazardous waste inside your dumpster. Instead, look up local regulations to determine how to dispose of them properly.
We offer a range of dumpster sizes to ensure you have one to meet your needs. Our customer service representatives can happily answer any questions you have. Contact our team at A-Tex Dumpster for more information today.
