Bagster is an innovative waste removal option brought to market by Waste Management.
\r\n\r\nToday, there are also similar bag-style dumpster on the market.
\r\n\r\nWhile bag dumpsters do have low initial costs, there is an additional fee to have it picked up; this fee can be several hundred dollars in some cases.
\r\n\r\nThe fee to have the Bagster picked up and disposed of typically ranges from $120 to $300, depending on your location.\r\n\r\n
The total cost of a Bagster is comparable to that of a small roll-off dumpster or trailer dumpster rental.
\r\n\r\nIn this guide, we’ll compare and contrast these options and their average costs.
\r\n\r\n![\"Is](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/Bagster-costs.png\")
\r\nBagsters are purchased at various home improvement stores, such as Home Depot and others, at a price of around $20 to $30.
\r\n\r\nThis can be a bit deceiving to some because it does not include the cost to have the filled Bagster picked up by Waste Management.
\r\n\r\nAs previously mentioned, the cost to have the Bagster picked up by Waste Management typically ranges between $120 and $300 (based on 2022 pricing).
\r\n\r\nThe difference in cost is based on location and not on the amount, weight, or type of junk or debris.
\r\n\r\nIt’s important to note that putting prohibited items in the Bagster or overfilling it may lead to additional charges.
\r\n\r\nThe average total cost of Bagster service is $150-$350, including the cost of the bag, pick-up fee, and disposal.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Now that you know approximately how much it costs to utilize a Bagster, it’s a good idea to compare it to other small dumpster options.
\r\n\r\nA widely available option is a 10 yard dumpster, though some dumpster rental companies offer other small container sizes, such as 8 yard or 12 yard dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nThe average total cost of a Bagster is $150-$350 while a 10 yard dumpster costs $250-$450 on average.
\r\n\r\nAs you can see, the average costs of both options are comparable, but the cost per yard of a 10 yard dumpster is quite a bit less than the cost per yard of the Bagster.
\r\n\r\nA 10 yard dumpster costs $25-$45 per yard on average, and a Bagster costs $50-$117 per yard on average.
\r\n\r\nClearly, you get much more bang for your buck with a 10 yard dumpster.
\r\n\r\nEven if you don’t believe the debris from your project will require anymore than a 3 yard dumpster, it’s a smart idea to consider a larger dumpster.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIt’s not uncommon for customers to rent a dumpster that’s too small for the project, which is why we suggest getting a larger dumpster than you think you need to complete the cleanup.
\r\n
Because Bagsters and similar bag-style dumpsters only have about 3 cubic yards of loading capacity, it can be easy to exceed this limit.
\r\n\r\nBy renting a dumpster instead, you can avoid potential overage fees or having to buy a second Bagster to finish the job.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"Cost](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/cost-of-two-bagsters.png\")
\r\nEach Bagster pick-up incurs a fee.
\r\n\r\nWaste Management offers a slight discount on the pick-up of additional Bagsters, but the Bagsters must be picked up at the same time in order to receive this discount, and not picked up in separate trips.
\r\n\r\nFor example, if a customer uses two Bagsters in the Grand Rapids, MI area, they will pay $30 for each bag at their local home improvement store ($60 total). They then fill up their Bagsters and contact Waste Management to come pick them up. The pick-up fee in Grand Rapids is $199 for the first Bagster and $146 for the second Bagster, making this customer's pick-up cost $345 and the grand total cost $405 for 6 yards of loading capacity or less.
\r\n\r\nAs you can see, the customer could’ve rented a small dumpster and saved money while also having more loading capacity.
\r\n\r\nThis is a great example of why it’s important to do your due diligence when preparing to rent a dumpster.

Choosing the right size dumpster is important for managing your waste effectively and avoiding unnecessary fees as well. Dumpsters are measured in cubic yards, representing the volume of debris they can hold. One cubic yard is equivalent to a cube that’s 3 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet high—about the size of a standard kitchen stove. While common dumpster sizes include 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 yards, some companies also offer mini dumpsters (2-8 yards) or in between sizes (e.g. 12, 18, or 25 yards).
\r\n\r\nThe chart below breaks down the most common dumpster sizes and what they’re best used for…
\r\n\r\n| Size | \r\n\t\t\tApprox. Pickup Loads | \r\n\t\t\tTypical Use Cases | \r\n\t\t\tGood For... | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | \r\n\t\t\t3-4 loads | \r\n\t\t\tSmall home cleanouts, yard debris, minor remodeling | \r\n\t\t\tAttic or garage purge, 250 sq ft deck tear-down | \r\n\t\t
| 15 yard | \r\n\t\t\t5-6 loads | \r\n\t\t\tMedium cleanouts, small kitchen/bath renovations | \r\n\t\t\tBasement cleanouts, 300-500 sq ft remodels | \r\n\t\t
| 20 yard | \r\n\t\t\t7-9 loads | \r\n\t\t\tLarger renovations, flooring/carpet removal | \r\n\t\t\tMulti-room cleanouts, roof shingle tear-offs | \r\n\t\t
| 30 yard | \r\n\t\t\t10-12 loads | \r\n\t\t\tWhole-home cleanouts, large remodels, light construction | \r\n\t\t\tHouse flips, estate cleanouts | \r\n\t\t
| 40 yard | \r\n\t\t\t12-14 loads | \r\n\t\t\tNew construction, commercial demolition, hoarding situations | \r\n\t\t\tBig jobs with bulky debris or major cleanouts | \r\n\t\t
Note: The above figures are averages and recommendations only. Different dumpster sizes may be available in your area and may be able to accommodate different loads.
\r\n
Each dumpster has a designated weight limit as well, so you’ll want to consider the weight of your debris in addition to the volume. For example, household junk is relatively lightweight and not typically a concern of exceeding a dumpster’s weight limit. Construction and demolition debris or roofing shingles are much heavier, and therefore may require a larger dumpster or multiple dumpsters to stay within weight limits.
\r\n\r\nThe chart below shows the average weight of the most common debris types and which dumpster sizes are best for different debris.
\r\n\r\n| Debris Type | \r\n\t\t\tWeight per Cubic Yard | \r\n\t\t\tBest Dumpster Sizes | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|
| Household junk (furniture, trash, clothing) | \r\n\t\t\t100-250 lbs | \r\n\t\t\t10-20 yard (volume-based limit) | \r\n\t\t
| Lightweight construction and demolition debris (drywall, wood) | \r\n\t\t\t250-750 lbs | \r\n\t\t\t15-30 yard depending on job size | \r\n\t\t
| Heavy construction and demolition debris (concrete, brick, dirt) | \r\n\t\t\t2,000-3,000 lbs | \r\n\t\t\t10 yard max (heavy load restrictions) | \r\n\t\t
| Roofing shingles | \r\n\t\t\t~250 lbs per square (3 bundles) | \r\n\t\t\t10-20 yard (watch weight limit) | \r\n\t\t
Note: The above figures are averages only. Your debris may weigh more or less than the averages listed here.

Tip: The above information can help you determine which dumpster size is best for your project. However, if you’re still unsure, dumpster rental companies are experts at knowing which dumpster size is best for your particular project. You can reach out to local pros over the phone to explain your project to them and get their recommendation.

\r\n\r\nIn most cases, yes, a dumpster will fit in your driveway, but there are a few important factors to consider before scheduling delivery.
\r\n\r\nMost roll-off dumpsters are delivered on large trucks and are rectangular in shape. Here are typical exterior dimensions (may vary slightly by provider):
\r\n\r\n| Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tLength | \r\n\t\t\tWidth | \r\n\t\t\tHeight | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | \r\n\t\t\t12 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t\t3.5 ft | \r\n\t\t
| 15 yard | \r\n\t\t\t16 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t\t4.5 ft | \r\n\t\t
| 20 yard | \r\n\t\t\t22 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t\t4.5 ft | \r\n\t\t
| 30 yard | \r\n\t\t\t22 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t\t6 ft | \r\n\t\t
| 40 yard | \r\n\t\t\t22 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft | \r\n\t\t
Note: These are some of the most popular dimensions, but you specific dumpster may vary in exact dimensions.
\r\n
For a dumpster to fit in a driveway, you typically need:
\r\n\r\nPlacing a dumpster on a lawn, gravel, or dirt is possible but not always ideal. The dumpster and delivery truck are heavy and can leave ruts or damage landscaping, especially after rain. If your driveway is steep, let your provider know in advance. They may recommend street placement or a smaller size that’s easier to manage.
\r\n\r\nTips:
\r\n\r\nDumpster rental prices can vary widely depending on a number of factors, like dumpster size, cost of living in your area, type of debris, rental duration, and weight. Understanding how these things affect pricing, and how to avoid unexpected overage charges, can save you hundreds of dollars.
\r\n\r\nThe average cost to rent a 10 yard dumpster is $250-$450. The average cost to rent a 15 yard dumpster is $300-$500. The average cost to rent a 30 yard dumpster is $350-$550. The average cost to rent a 40 yard dumpster is $500-$750.
\r\n\r\n| Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tAverage Price Range | \r\n\t\t\tIncluded Weight | \r\n\t\t\tTypical Projects | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$250-$450 | \r\n\t\t\t1-2 tons | \r\n\t\t\tGarage cleanouts, yard debris | \r\n\t\t
| 15 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$300-$500 | \r\n\t\t\t1.5-2.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\tSmall remodeling jobs | \r\n\t\t
| 20 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$350-$550 | \r\n\t\t\t2-3 tons | \r\n\t\t\tFlooring, medium renovations | \r\n\t\t
| 30 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$450-$650 | \r\n\t\t\t3-4 tons | \r\n\t\t\tLarge remodels, cleanouts | \r\n\t\t
| 40 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$500-$750+ | \r\n\t\t\t4-5 tons | \r\n\t\t\tConstruction commercial use | \r\n\t\t
Note: The above figures are averages only. Your dumpster rental may cost more or less than the averages listed here.
\r\n
The cost for dumpster rental varies significantly by location. For example, a 20 yard dumpster rental booked in Phoenix costs $350 on average while the same size dumpster in San Diego runs about $450.
\r\n\r\nWe recommend that you get at least 3 quotes from local dumpster rental companies to compare out-the-door pricing before committing. As a general rule, renting a dumpster from a company that is locally-owned is almost always cheaper than renting from a nationwide, big chain provider.
\r\n\r\nContinue reading:
\r\n\r\nThere can be, and they can add up quickly if you're not careful. Many customers are surprised by extra charges that appear after pickup. These fees are avoidable with a little planning and communication.
\r\n\r\nAll dumpsters have a weight limit, and dumpster rental companies will charge what’s commonly known as an “overage fee” if you exceed that limit. (In extreme cases, the dumpster may need to be at least partially unloaded for the dumpster to be safely loaded onto the truck and transported.)
\r\n\r\nOther common fees that can be incurred include:
\r\n\r\nExtended Rental Fee: Applies if you need to keep the dumpster longer than the agreed rental period (usually $10-$25 per extra day).
\r\n\tProhibited Items Fee: For throwing away items that aren't allowed in the dumpster, such as mattresses, tires, certain appliances, batteries, or electronics. Check with the dumpster companies you speak with to determine what items are not allowed in the dumpster.
\r\n\tDry Run/Trip Charge: A fee if the dumpster delivery or pickup can't be completed due to blocked access or an unprepared site.
\r\n\tHazardous Waste Fee: Applied if banned substances like paints, solvents, or chemicals are found in the load.
\r\n\tWhen booking a dumpster through Hometown, you'll provide a credit card at the time of booking. Once the booking is confirmed by the dumpster service, you'll be charged the agreed dumpster price.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
In most cases, a dumpster can be delivered as soon as the next business day, depending on availability and when you place your order. Some providers even offer same-day delivery if you call early enough in the morning.
\r\n\r\nFor pickup, most companies can remove the dumpster within 24 to 48 hours of your request, though timelines may vary based on how busy they are, your location, and whether the container is ready (i.e., not overfilled or blocked).
\r\n\r\nNo, you usually don’t need to be home for the dumpster to be delivered or picked up as long as the delivery area is clear and accessible.
\r\n\r\nBefore your scheduled delivery…
\r\n\r\nFor pickup, just make sure the dumpster is:
\r\n\r\nTip: If your driveway has a gate or any special access needs, let the company know ahead of time and do what you can to make drop-off and pick-up easy for the driver.
\r\n\r\nMost dumpster rental companies include a standard rental period of 7 days in the base price, giving you a full week to load up the container at your own pace. However, many providers offer flexible rental terms and are willing to adjust the timeline if your project requires more time.
\r\n\r\nDaily extension fees may apply, often ranging from $10-$25 per extra day. Availability may vary depending on how busy the provider is, so it's always best to call as early as possible if you think you'll need more time.
\r\n\r\nIf you're done early, most companies are happy to pick up the dumpster sooner, sometimes even the same day you call.

\r\n\r\nWhile dumpsters are a convenient way to dispose of large amounts of different types of debris, not everything is allowed inside. Most roll-off dumpsters accept common household junk, construction debris, and yard waste, but there are important restrictions for safety and environmental reasons.
\r\n\r\nThe most crucial rule of thumb is that you generally cannot put any type of hazardous materials or liquids in a rented dumpster (e.g. paints, batteries, cleaning supplies), but there are a few other items that can incur additional fees if placed inside (e.g. mattresses, tires, certain appliances). It's always best to ask your dumpster rental company about any prohibited items as policies can vary between providers.
\r\n\r\nItems You Can Usually Throw in a Dumpster:
\r\n\r\nHousehold junk: Furniture, toys, boxes, clothing, non-electronic items
\r\n\tAppliances (non-refrigerated): Microwaves, stoves, washers, dryers (ask about extra fees)
\r\n\tConstruction debris: Drywall, lumber, flooring, siding, cabinetry
\r\n\tYard waste: Branches, leaves, grass, stumps (may vary by location)
\r\n\tRoofing materials: Shingles, underlayment, flashing (be mindful of weight limits)
\r\n\tRenovation/remodeling waste: Tile, countertops, toilets, sinks, tubs
\r\n\tItems You Typically Can’t Put in a Dumpster:
\r\n\r\nPaints and solvents: Includes latex, oil-based paint, stains, and thinners
\r\n\tBatteries: Especially car or lithium-ion batteries (contain hazardous chemicals)
\r\n\tTires: Most landfills charge extra for these or don’t accept them at all
\r\n\tRefrigerators and AC units: Contain refrigerants that must be properly disposed of
\r\n\tElectronics: TVs, computers, and monitors are restricted in many areas
\r\n\tFlammable/combustible items: Gasoline, propane tanks, motor oil, lighter fluid
\r\n\tHazardous materials: Pesticides, cleaners, asbestos, medical waste
\r\n\tReminder: Always ask your dumpster rental company for a list of prohibited items. They can vary slightly by location due to local landfill and environmental regulations.
\r\n\r\nFor items that can’t go in your dumpster, you can take paint, chemicals, and batteries to a local hazardous waste facility. Recycle electronics through an e-waste program. You can drop off tires and appliances at an approved recycling center.
\r\n\r\nSometimes, but not always. Whether you can mix different types of debris in one dumpster depends on your dumpster rental provider’s rules and local disposal regulations.
\r\n\r\nYou can generally mix light household junk like furniture, clothing, and boxes with non-hazardous construction debris such as drywall, wood, and flooring in a single general-purpose dumpster. However, be mindful that including very heavy materials like concrete, bricks, or roofing shingles along with lighter items can quickly lead to exceeding weight limits, potentially resulting in extra fees or disposal challenges.
\r\n\r\nAlways tell your dumpster provider what kinds of debris you'll be disposing of before booking. They’ll let you know:
\r\n\r\nEstimating debris weight is important when renting a dumpster because most rentals include a weight limit, and exceeding that limit can result in overage fees. To make an accurate estimate, consider both the type of material and how much of it you have.
\r\n\r\nOne cubic yard is roughly the size of a kitchen stove, so use that as a visual reference when estimating how much you’re going to be disposing of.
\r\n\r\nHousehold Trash & Junk Removal
\r\n\r\nThe average weight of 1 cubic yard of household junk is 100-250 lbs.
\r\n\r\n| Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tVolume (yd³) | \r\n\t\t\tWeight Range | \r\n\t\t

|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t10 | \r\n\t\t\t1.25-5 tons | \r\n\t\t

| 40 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t40 | \r\n\t\t\t5-20 tons | \r\n\t\t
Note: The above figures are averages only. Your C&D debris may weigh more or less than the averages listed here.
\r\n
Roofing Shingles
\r\n\r\nThe average weight of 1 cubic yard of roofing shingles is 2,400-2,800 lbs (1.2-1.4 tons).
\r\n\r\n| Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tVolume (yd³) | \r\n\t\t\tWeight Range | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t10 | \r\n\t\t\t3-3.75 tons | \r\n\t\t

| 40 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t40 | \r\n\t\t\t12-13.5 tons | \r\n\t\t
Note: The above figures are averages only. Your roofing debris may weigh more or less than the averages listed here.

\r\n\r\nA dumpster can typically be placed in a driveway, parking lot, or another flat, easily accessible surface on your property. However, dumpster placement in each instance will depend on your specific location, local regulations, and the size of the dumpster.
\r\n\r\nCommon Placement Options
\r\n\r\nAvoid Placing Dumpsters On:
\r\n\r\nYes, in most cities and towns, you’ll need a permit if you plan to place a dumpster on a public street, sidewalk, right-of-way, or public parking space. If you live in a downtown area or residential neighborhood with strict codes, you may also need to get a permit.
\r\n\r\nIf your dumpster is placed entirely on private property, like a driveway, parking lot, or construction site you own or manage, you typically do not need to get a permit.
\r\n\r\nDumpsters are extremely heavy, especially once filled, so yes, there is a risk of surface damage if you’re not careful. Concrete driveways can develop cracks under the concentrated weight of a loaded container, while asphalt may soften in hot weather and form deep indentations. On softer ground like grass or dirt, the weight of the dumpster or delivery truck can easily create ruts, sinkage, or torn-up turf.
\r\n\r\nHow to Prevent Damage:
\r\n\r\nUse plywood: Place plywood or boards under the dumpster to help distribute weight evenly and protect the surface.
\r\n\tAvoid wet or soft ground: Try to place the dumpster on a solid, level surface.
\r\n\tTalk to your rental provider: They may offer their own protective boards or pads, or make recommendations based on your property.
\r\n\tAfter your dumpster is picked up, the waste is transported to a local facility for sorting, recycling, or disposal.
\r\n\r\nMost dumpster rental companies aim to divert as much material from landfills as possible. Recyclable items, like clean wood, cardboard, metal, and concrete, are separated and sent to appropriate recycling centers. Non-recyclable or contaminated waste is typically taken to a landfill or incineration facility, depending on local regulations.
\r\n\r\nIn some cases, especially for construction or roofing debris, companies may take the entire load to a specialized material recovery facility where items are sorted by type. It's worth asking your rental provider about their waste handling practices if you’re environmentally conscious or want to ensure proper disposal.
\r\n\r\nScheduling a dumpster pickup is usually quick and straightforward. Most dumpster rental companies offer multiple options, so be sure you have a thorough understanding of the pick-up process when booking your dumpster so you're not caught off guard.
\r\n\r\nThe most common ways to arrange for your dumpster to be picked up:
\r\n\r\nCall the company: This is the most common method. Just contact your provider when you're finished loading the dumpster, and they’ll arrange a pickup time, often within 24-48 hours.
\r\n\tPre-schedule at booking: If you anticipate keeping the dumpster for your entire rental period, you can often pre-schedule pick-up when you book the dumpster. At some point on your pre-determined pick-up day, the dumpster rental company will come pick up the dumpster.
\r\n\tIf you need the dumpster removed quickly or you need more time, let the company know. It’s often possible to get same-day or next-day pick-up depending on their schedule, and they can likely extend your rental for a daily fee.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLuckily for condo owners and renters, more and more dumpsters companies are offering more compact disposal containers for customers with limited space.
\r\n
If you're wondering how to find small or \"mini\" dumpsters near you, Hometown has you covered.
\r\n\r\nThe most common temporary dumpster rental sizes come in 10-40 yard capacities.
\r\n\r\nThere are, however, \"mini\" dumpsters that are similar in shape to typical roll-off dumpsters that are able to fit in tighter, more compact spaces.
\r\n\r\nMini dumpsters come in sizes ranging from 2 yards to 9 yards and are notably smaller than the average roll-off dumpster size, which is 10 yards.
\r\n\r\nAnother popular dumpster is a commercial dumpster, which is typically rented by brick and mortar businesses and stays put outside the business for weekly or bi-weekly pickup throughout the year.
\r\n\r\nCommercial dumpsters normally come in 2-8 yard sizes and, unlike roll-off dumpsters, feature top lids without any doors on the side for walk-in loading access.
\r\n\r\nThe biggest difference between commercial dumpsters and roll-off dumpsters is that commercial dumpsters are normally used for long-term use at an establishment that produces a large volume of trash every week, like a grocery story or apartment complex, while a roll-off dumpster is only meant to stay on location for a limited period of time for one specific project, like a home cleanout or construction site.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAs large cities throughout the U.S. see a surge in new home and office builds with tighter spacing, more and more dumpster companies are now offering their commercial dumpsters for temporary rent to property owners.
\r\n
The advantage of these smaller commercial dumpsters is that they can fit in tighter spaces, as mentioned, but also have a built-in protective top door(s) to prevent the elements and critters from getting into the container.

\r\n\r\nRenting a larger dumpster usually costs no more than $50-$100, but running out of room in the smaller dumpster and having to rent a second dumpster to get rid of all your waste can end up costing you anywhere from $250-$750 on average.
\r\n\r\nEven with this rule of thumb in mind, situations can arise where the dumpster you rented isn't big enough to accommodate all of your debris.
\r\n\r\nIf you run out of room in your dumpster rental and still have junk/garbage/debris to dispose of, there are several removal options available.
\r\n\r\n![\"How](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/leftover-infographic_0.png\")
\r\nCost
\r\n\r\nIf you have 5+ yards of debris left over, renting an additional dumpster is the most efficient strategy.
\r\n\r\nOftentimes, the dumpster company will haul your dumpster to the landfill to be emptied and then return it back to you to be refilled.
\r\n\r\nThe rental process is quick, and a dumpster can accommodate a large capacity of waste or debris.
\r\n\r\nIdeally, you’d want to plan ahead and rent a dumpster that’s big enough to handle all your debris in one trip, but estimating the amount of debris from a project is not an exact science, so a second dumpster makes sense in cases where you’ve greatly underestimated it.
\r\n\r\nLearn more:
\r\n\r\nCost
\r\n\r\nIf a trailer or truck is available, hauling the excess to the local landfill yourself is a valid option.
\r\n\r\nThis does require some extra effort and a lot more time, but it can be a very cost-effective disposal method.
\r\n\r\nThis strategy is best for small amounts of waste or debris, as multiple trips to the landfill can take up quite a bit of time, incurs additional fees, and is twice as much legwork for you.
\r\n\r\nLandfill dump fees vary by location and type of debris. Some cities have recycling rules for certain types of debris, such as concrete or roofing shingles.
\r\n\r\nCheck with your city to ensure you follow all laws.
\r\n\r\nRelated reading:
\r\n\r\nCost: Varies greatly depending on type, volume, and weight of waste, generally starts at $150 and goes up from there
\r\n\r\nHiring junk removal services is the easiest and usually the fastest way to get rid of your leftover debris, junk, or yard waste.
\r\n\r\nWhen you hire a junk removal provider, they come to your job site, load up your waste, and haul it to the nearest landfill or recycling facility.
\r\n\r\nAll of the heavy lifting, loading, and manual labor is left to the pros so that you can focus on more important aspects of your project.
\r\n\r\nSome companies will allow you to send them photos or video so that they can quote you a price over the phone or via email, while others will need to send one or two crew members over to do a walk through to provide an in-person estimate.
\r\n\r\nGetting multiple quotes allows you to compare pricing, availability, and the type of customer service you can expect from the company you hire.
\r\n\r\nHometown makes it easy to get multiple quotes from locally-owned and operated junk removal and dumpster rental providers that service your area.
\r\n\r\nEnter your zip code, answer a few short questions about your waste removal, and you'll be given up to 3 different quotes to compare and ultimately choose the best service for your cleanup.

\r\n\r\nCost: $40+ per yard
\r\n\r\nYour weekly trash hauling company may offer a “special wastes” or bulky item pickup option for some types of waste or debris.
\r\n\r\nThere are additional fees on top of your regular weekly trash service for this type of pick-up.
\r\n\r\nGet in touch with your municipal waste service to learn more about what they will accept and when.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCost: FREE
\r\n\r\nThis is a viable option for gently used goods but would not work for general wastes, damaged items, or most types of construction wastes.
\r\n\r\nDonating your materials or giving them away for free is a great option for undamaged furniture, reusable lumber, kid’s toys, home decor, and more.
\r\n\r\nYou can drop off your gently used items at local restore stores (like Goodwill) or list items for free curbside pickup online (like Facebook Marketplace).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCost: Negotiable
\r\n\r\nThis option may not be available very often, but it’s worth a try if one of your neighbors is in the middle of a project or about to start one.
\r\n\r\nSharing a dumpster can cut your costs in half, or more.

\r\n\r\nSkipping some of the bases and crossing your fingers when hiring a company is not an ideal approach.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe importance of thoroughness when paying for dumpster rental or junk removal services cannot be overstressed, and there are a handful of red flags that make it obvious you should steer clear of a certain company.
\r\n
While we would like to think that all contractors and service companies are honest and straightforward people, that unfortunately isn't always the case.
\r\n\r\nThis is why it's so important to do your research rather than choosing a dumpster rental or junk removal company based on face value alone.
\r\n\r\n![\"dumpster](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/waste-removal-junk-hauler-red-flags-infographic.png\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nA single unhappy customer or two isn't necessarily a sign of bad service, but when the majority of a company's reviews are negative, we recommend finding another company.
\r\n\r\nIf a company has zero reviews, they may be a brand new business or, worst case scenario, they don't allow customers to leave honest reviews because they provide suspect service and don't want other customers to catch on.
\r\n\r\nA brand new dumpster rental or junk removal business may be highly capable of providing great service for a great price, which is why we also recommend keeping an eye out for other red flags before you count them out.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nA big mistake homeowners commonly make when renting a dumpster or hiring a junk removal company is not getting the pricing details in writing or moving forward with services before having a clear understanding of what the services do or don't include.
\r\n
It can be easy to lose sight of all your questions (and follow-up questions) once you get on the phone or speak with the company in-person, so we recommend being prepared with your questions before reaching out to dumpster rental services just as we advise having certain questions you get answers to from junk removal companies.
\r\n\r\nAt a minimum, a dumpster quote should include:
\r\n\r\nFor junk removal quotes, most are provided in-person after the crew has a chance to assess the work. Because junk removal is relatively straightforward and involves hauling away the items you want removed, most quotes are simply invoices for the job done.
\r\n\r\nIf you're unsure what is included in a company's price, make sure you get answers to those questions before moving forward.
\r\n\r\nLearn more:
\r\n\r\nWe all love a good price. However, unlicensed and unqualified companies may take advantage of unsuspecting homeowners under the guise of a great deal.
\r\n\r\nA little research may reveal that the company with the crazy good deal also has bad customer reviews or they're simply not qualified or licensed to do the work.
\r\n\r\nWhile a good price is important, it isn't the most important consideration when it comes to hiring a contractor.
\r\n\r\nMake sure you don't lose sight of the big picture when you see a low price. The best service provider will offer a balance of competitive pricing, experience, and good customer service.
\r\n\r\nKeep reading:
\r\n\r\nIf a dumpster rental or junk removal company asks you to pay them before your disposal project is done, this is a red flag.
\r\n\r\nWith other contractor jobs, it's common to pay for a small percentage of the project before it begins, but this is not standard practice for disposal-related services.
\r\n\r\nA reputable business will provide an invoice for your services following completion of the work and will request payment at that point.
\r\n\r\nFor the sake of proof of payment, we always recommend paying with a debit or credit card, check, or money order rather than cash.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe importance of insurance cannot be overstated. If your dumpster rental or junk removal company doesn't have adequate insurance, you could be the one left responsible should property be damaged or a worker is injured.
\r\n\r\nAlong the same lines as insurance, a contractor should be properly licensed to perform the work in that state.
\r\n\r\nThese licensing laws are designed to protect property owners from negligent or dishonest companies and contractors.
\r\n\r\nEach state's licensing requirements are different, but this is often a basic indication that said company is qualified to provide those services.
\r\n\r\nHometown is a convenient source for finding dumpster rental or junk removal services in your area.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nJunk removal pricing depends primarily on how much you have to get rid of, how much space your items take up in the truck or trailer, and whether or not your items require special care or handling, like with heavy, fragile, or hazardous items.

\r\n\r\nIn most cases, dumpster rental prices fall between $250 and $550 for a seven-day rental, while junk removal can be as low as $75 or as high as thousands of dollars.
\r\n\r\nTypically, junk removal services cost more than renting a dumpster because of the added labor costs involved.
\r\n\r\nHowever, the exception to this is smaller cleanups, such as hauling away a couple pieces of furniture or getting rid of a refrigerator.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIn general, if you need to get rid of only a few larger items like appliances or furniture, junk removal is the more cost-effective option, but if you have a larger project, then dumpster rental is likely less expensive.
\r\n
Renting a dumpster is the more economical choice for bigger jobs where you have to throw out seven or more cubic yards of material.
