What Can You Fit in a Dumpster?
When making the decision to get rid of all that clutter in your home, the next step is to find a trusted dumpster company. The job might end up being a big one, especially if there are large items such as furniture or appliances. Do you know what size to rent? You don’t want to pay for a dumpster and then only use half of it, but then again you also don’t want to have to order a second dumpster due to having too many items for the size you got.
Size of Your Dumpster
Dumpsters are available in a variety of sizes. Daniel J. Clifford & Son offers 10, 15, 20, and 30 yard dumpsters for rent. 10-15 yard dumpsters are most popular for residential home clean outs and other medium-sized projects. 20 yards can be used for construction site clean outs, and 30 yards can be used for bigger residential projects. You can also use 40 yard dumpsters for both huge commercial and residential constructions jobs.
When choosing which size dumpster to rent, make sure it is fit for the size of your project. You don’t want to rent a dumpster and only use half the amount of space available – you’d be wasting money.
Rules for Dumpsters
There are plenty of rules on what you can put in a dumpster and what you cannot. You might not be able to dump specific types of waste when the dumpster you have at hand is a rental. In fact, you could be breaking the rental contract by putting such items in it. Dumpsters are a great resource to have when you are getting rid of a large amount of items, or doing a construction project.
Dumpster Policy
What can go in a rental dumpster can depend on the State you live in, and the dumpster company as well. Your rental company may not allow some wastes because of rules and regulations. Furniture including tables, couches, and chairs are usually allowed to be placed in dumpsters, but upholstered furniture may not be allowed in some locations due to regulations regarding waste disposal.
Fluid Removal
Air conditioner units, as well as washers and dryers can fit into a dumpster, but the fluids inside them must be removed prior to disposing of them. Always contact the dumpster rental company to make sure the appliances you wish to get rid of are okay to be put in a dumpster.
