When you get sick of looking at that pile of junk sitting in your garage, basement, or attic, two of the most affordable solutions are renting a dumpster or buying a bag dumpster. Find out which option is the best deal.
Find out how much money you can save by renting a traditional roll-off dumpster instead of buying a Bagster or another bag dumpster in many situations.
Bagster dumpsters are a popular choice for small residential cleanups, but they may not be the optimal choice in all situations. Learn about Bagster pricing, what can and can't go in a Bagster, and other considerations.
Which is best: a dumpster bag or roll-off dumpster rental?
If you're only pitching 3 yards or less of smaller household junk, a dumpster bag is a great option.
But 3 yards of capacity fills up fast.
If you're unsure whether or not you'll have more than 3 cubic yards of debris, the safe bet is to rent a dumpster.
How much do dumpster bags cost?
Dumpster bags are inexpensive upfront, costing roughly $30 to purchase, but the cost of pick-up is more costly and can vary quite a bit depending on your location.
For example, Waste Management’s Bagster pick-up costs range from $120-$300, making the total cost to use a Bagster $150-$350, or $50-$117 per cubic yard.
How much can a dumpster bag hold?
A dumpster bag can hold 3 cubic yards on average or 1 cubic yard of heavy debris, like concrete or dirt.
Common dumpster bags measure 8 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 2.5 feet tall. Because the Bagster is only 2 ft 6 in. high, large bulky materials, like furniture, are not going to fit well.
