Spring cleaning doesn't just include your home and garage. Once the snow melts and plants start to grow back, it's time to give your yard a thorough cleanup to get you prepped and ready for the upcoming season.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCleaning up your yard and getting it ready for continued maintenance throughout the spring and summer season is a great way to boost your home's curb appeal and get fresh air and exercise while you're at it.
\r\n
Learn where to start and how to make your yard cleanup as efficient as possible in this quick guide.

\r\nOne of the very first things you should do if you haven't already is remove any seasonal decor that is still left in your yard or on the outside of your home. Any Christmas or Valentine's Day decor should be packed up and stored away for next year. If you love decorating your yard and home for different seasons, consider replacing your winter decor with spring-inspired decor. Tulips and other bright-colored flowers make beautiful front door wreaths, and patio string lights can replace the holiday-colored string lights people use during the winter months. Before you start putting out Easter decorations or patio furniture, be sure to complete the following yard cleanup steps.
\r\n\r\nMake sure that your entire yard is free from clutter and debris. This includes old play sets your children have outgrown, broken and worn bird baths, above ground pools, scrap metal, old bikes, rubber tires, stockpiled wood, or anything else that should otherwise be thrown away or recycled. Lawns should not be used for storage or to start your own backyard \"landfill.\" Allowing garbage and junk to pile up on your lawn will not only kill your grass, but it will collect sitting water that attracts bugs and other pests in search of shelter, not to mention unhappy neighbors if they have to look at your mess, too. Treating your yard like a scrap yard is a danger to any person or pet that steps foot on your property, and it's a huge liability for you as the homeowner.
\r\n\r\nWhen you purchase, inherit, or otherwise acquire a home with a completely unmaintained lawn full of junk and other yard scraps that need to be hauled away and disposed of, it's best to hire a professional yard cleanup company, or at the very least, rent a dumpster for safe and efficient disposal. A 10 or 20 yard dumpster rental will cost you around $250-$550 on average and typically includes 5-7 days of rental. Renting a dumpster is an affordable way to clean up and get rid of any junk in your yard that has been sitting, rotting, and devaluing your property.
\r\n\r\nIf you're unable or unwilling to do all of the heavy lifting and dirty work yourself, hiring a junk removal company to clear away all the waste in your yard is one of the easiest ways to do so. While a little bit more expensive than renting a dumpster, spring yard cleanup services with a professional junk removal company have an average cost of $500-$1,000, but the convenience of not having to lift a finger and not putting yourself at risk of harm or injury cannot be overstated.
\r\n\r\nRenting a dumpster or hiring a junk removal to help you clear out your yard of wanted items is a great way to instantly up your curb appeal and increase the value of your home.

\r\n\r\nAfter you make sure that your yard is clear of junk and scraps, the first thing you should do to prepare your yard for spring is go over it with a rake and remove all of the leftover dead debris that was trapped in place during the winter. If you have dogs, first do a yard sweep to pick up all their droppings so that it doesn't get mixed in with your yard waste.
\r\n\r\nFrom there, remove any fallen tree branches, sticks, or other large debris that can't be easily raked up. You can place these sticks and twigs into a bucket and later use them for kindling to start those sought-after summer bonfires. Also pick up any large rocks or stones that could damage your lawn mower. Having larger items out of the way will make raking your yard much easier.
\r\n\r\nThen, rake up any remaining dead leaves and weeds leftover from the fall. It's important to rake up as much loose debris as possible for the best results for a healthy lawn. The more material you have scattered across your lawn, the harder it will be for your lawn to get the water, nutrients, and sunshine needed to grow into a luscious, healthy lawn. After you've done this type of \"deep cleaning\" with a rake through your lawn, make it a habit to do this around once a month throughout the warmer seasons.
\r\n\r\nThese piles of dead leaves and other organic material can be conveniently composted or bagged in lawn waste bags approved by your city. Be sure not to place them in plastic bags and do not mix them in with your regular trash. Some municipalities will fine you for doing so. If you don't have an easy to way to compost your leaf pile and are unsure of what to do with it, research your weekly trash service to find out how they handle this type of waste.
\r\n\r\nIf you live in a cold climate and your yard is looking old, tired, and quite frankly, dead, consider starting a fertilizer schedule to jumpstart your lawn's regrowth. Fertilizer supplies your grass with nutrients needed to grow that depleted during the winter.
\r\n\r\nThere are plenty of different options available that make fertilizing your lawn straight forward and range from DIY options like Sunday to full-service options like TruGreen. Many experts believe that fertilizer should be applied at least twice a year, with the first fertilization typically planned for April or May. This will vary, however, based on the type of grass you have, your climate, soil nutrients, etc. Lawn care experts in your area will be able to tell you what will work best for your particular situation. For example, \"cool season\" grasses, like bluegrass and ryegrass, are typically fertilized in the early spring and beginning of fall, while other \"warm season\" grasses are typically fertilized in the spring and then again later in the summer.
\r\n\r\nUnderstanding your particular lawn's nutrient needs will help guide you on the best path for optimal lawn regrowth. It's also important to start mowing your lawn once it has grown to about 2.5-3 inches tall. Many people suggest mowing your lawn every 5 days once it has started to grow in the spring, and then slowing down to once a week during peak summer. When it's the warmest, you can allow your grass to grow longer, around 3.5-4 inches tall, to provide more shade and safety for the grass. Cutting your grass too short midsummer can result in scorched lawns that are a sight for sore eyes (and feet!).
\r\n\r\nAnother important aspect of a healthy lawn is not only removing weeds once they've shown up, but doing your best to prevent the start and spread of their growth before they can even be spotted. This is especially important if you noticed that weeds in your yard were very prevalent during the previous year. If weeds tend to be a problem in your yard, consider using a pre-emergent herbicide, or \"weed killer.\" Pre-emergent weed killers can be applied early in the spring where it will sit in the soil and destroy weed seed while it's germinating. If it's too late and weeds have already begun to sprout, using a post-emergent weed killer will work just as well, but will require more pruning and removal after the herbicide has taken affect.
\r\n\r\nOnce your lawn has been cleared of all debris and has been set up for success with fertilizer and pre-emergent weed killers, it's time to start giving your shrubs and trees some much needed attention. Remove any shrub shelters in place and make sure they're dry and dusted off. If there isn't any obvious damage to them, store them away so that they can be reused again in the fall.
\r\n\r\nThe goal of spring pruning is to remove any dead, damaged wood that is unpleasant to look at or could hinder the future growth of your plants. The trick of spring pruning, however, is to be careful to not prevent the growth of any buds or blooms. Making sure you know what to look for and properly timing out your trimming and pruning schedule is critical if you want to be successful. One of the more obvious things that you can feel confident in when you're trimming back shrubs is that if you can clearly see where the green part of the plant ends and a brown, dead spot of the plant begins, it is safe to remove and will instantly make your plant look more healthy and attractive.
\r\n\r\nIf you're someone who wants to trim your plant into a specific shape or length for aesthetic purposes, there are a few things to keep in mind before you go in with a pair of sheers. Shrubs that bud and flower have a specific growing schedule and prematurely cutting them off could ruin your chances of enjoying this season's bloom. There are many types of shrubs that grow their flowers (and sometimes fruit) from buds that were grown during the previous season before their winter hibernations. For example, pruning your blueberry bushes in the spring before they've fruited could result in you cutting off the buds that are suppose to flower and fruit.
\r\n\r\nIf you're unsure what your shrub or bush is, carefully inspect the branches of it in early spring, before any leaves have grown. If you spot any buds, be sure to only trim off dead branches and wait until after it blooms to trim it back. Other types of bushes and shrubs bloom later in the year on new growth that is produced in the current season. These shrubs are safe to trim back early on in the spring without fear of losing any buds and are safe to shape and trim to your preference.
\r\n\r\nTake a good look at any bushes or trees that are bordering any walls of your home, garage, sheds, or other outdoor structures. Large plants can retain and attract moisture and pests, which is why it's a good idea to have at least 2 feet of space between these plants and the exteriors of any structures on your property. Trim back any tree branches or shrubs that have grown too close to (or above) your home.
\r\n\r\nMulch is used for a variety of reasons, like retaining water, preventing weed growth, reducing soil erosion, and enhancing the look of your flowerbeds.
\r\n\r\nIf you previously laid down mulch over perennials for the winter, you'll need to remove it or brush it back so that it does not smother and hinder the regrowth of your perennials. Be sure to remove any old or excess mulch before applying your new mulch. When you're laying new mulch, you typically want to spread it between 2-4 inches thick, but you'll want to use it more sparingly around perennials, shrubs, and trees. Spreading mulch too heavily near these plants can either prevent water from getting to the roots, or cause too much water to pool and sit at the plant's base.
\r\n\r\nOnce your entire yard is cleaned up, consider using a pressure washer to give the exterior of your property an extra \"wow-factor.\" Spring time is the best time of year to power wash the exterior of your home, garage, shed, concrete sidewalks, driveway, and slabs, as well as composite and wooden decks and fencing. Washing away all signs of dirt, age, and other grime with a power washer gives your property an instant facelift and tells anyone driving by, \"This property is well maintained.\"
\r\n\r\nYou should only operate a power washer if you read the manual and understand exactly how to safely operate one, and you wear the appropriate shoes and safety gear. Failing to follow directions could at best end up in damaged property, and at worst could end up with serious injury.
\r\n\r\nPower washers should never be operated when it's under 40 degrees Fahrenheit out, as this can ruin the machinery. It's also important to understand the different types of pressures and chemicals that should be used on different surfaces so that you don't cause damage to the surfaces you're cleaning. Using caution when operating a power washer is crucial, as contact to people, pets, and plans can be extremely dangerous and harmful.
\r\n\r\nIf you have a wooden deck or fence that needs to be re-stained, you should wait until the summertime to do so. Stain should be applied to completely dry wood, so the wet and sometimes chilly spring weather is a less than ideal time to stain your deck or fence.
\r\n\r\nIf all the power washing and re-staining in the world wouldn't be able to salvage the look of your deck, fence, concrete, or shed, considering light demolition could be a worthwhile investment.
\r\n\r\nHiring a professional to handle your light demolition is easily the safest and most time-efficient way to reinvent your property and make room for improvements. Light demolition costs vary based on a number of factors, including the type and size of the shed, deck, fence, or concrete slab, the materials being removed, the location and accessibility of the structures/material, and who you hire. That being said, we've put together a list of the average costs for these types of projects across the U.S.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
| Project Type | \r\n\t\t\tAverage Cost | \r\n\t\t
| Shed demolition | \r\n\t\t\t$600-$2,000 | \r\n\t\t
| Deck removal | \r\n\t\t\t$600-$1,000 | \r\n\t\t
| Fence removal | \r\n\t\t\t$600-$800 | \r\n\t\t
| Concrete patio removal | \r\n\t\t\t$300-$4,500 | \r\n\t\t
| Concrete sidewalk removal | \r\n\t\t\t$500-$2,000 | \r\n\t\t
| Concrete driveway removal | \r\n\t\t\t$500-$2,500 | \r\n\t\t
\r\n\r\n
Your exact project cost will depend on the variety of factors described above, but the best way to get an accurate estimate for your project is to reach out to multiple contractors in your area for a quote. This not only ensures you get the best price but also allows you to choose the best contractor for the job, not just the cheapest.
\r\n\r\nSearch your zip code on Hometown Demolition and answer a few short questions about your project to find local contractors who can provide the demolition you need, when you need it.

Old cabinets, drywall, flooring, and scrap wood pile up fast, and most household trash bins can’t handle it. That’s where a dumpster rental comes in.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRenting a roll-off dumpster makes cleanup faster, safer, and more efficient, but only if you know what to expect.
\r\n
Homeowners rent dumpsters for all kinds of renovation projects, big and small. You might be:
\r\n\r\nDoing the demolition yourself on a kitchen or bathroom remodel and need a convenient place to toss old materials
\r\n\tHiring a handyman or small crew to handle the demo, but it’s up to you to arrange the dumpster
\r\n\tTackling a full DIY renovation, where you’re managing both demolition and construction
\r\n\tOverseeing multiple contractors for a larger project, and you want to keep waste removal organized
\r\n\tPreparing your home for sale and removing fixtures, furniture, or other junk and debris before staging
\r\n\tNo matter which situation fits you, this guide will help you understand how dumpster rentals work, what questions to know before renting, and how to avoid common mistakes.
\r\n\r\nChoosing the right size dumpster is one of the most important parts of a smooth project. If it’s too small, you’ll pay for multiple hauls; too large, and you’ll overspend on unused space.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
| Project Type | \r\n\t\t\tRecommended Size | \r\n\t\t\tNotes | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|
| Small bathroom remodel | \r\n\t\t\t10 yard dumpster | \r\n\t\t\tGreat for tile, drywall, small fixtures | \r\n\t\t
| Kitchen renovation | \r\n\t\t\t15-20 yard dumpster | \r\n\t\t\tCan handle cabinets, countertops, and appliances | \r\n\t\t
| Whole-home renovation | \r\n\t\t\t30 yard dumpster | \r\n\t\t\tBest for large volumes of debris | \r\n\t\t
| Roofing project | \r\n\t\t\t10-15 yard dumpster | \r\n\t\t\tIdeal for shingles and underlayment | \r\n\t\t
\r\n\r\n
Pro Tip: Always round up in dumpster size if you’re unsure. It’s cheaper to have a little extra room than to pay overage fees for going over the weight limit.
\r\n\r\nBefore booking your dumpster, clarify the details. Every dumpster company operates differently, so it pays to look at the fine print.
\r\n\r\nWhen you book with Hometown, you'll see all pricing details. Each company's transparent pricing details include all necessary information, like the rental period length included in the cost, as well as the cost of extending your rental period, what items you're prohibited from placing in the dumpster, and how much weight is included in the dumpster price and the cost per ton if you exceed that weight.
\r\nMost dumpster rentals last 7-10 days. Companies typically offer the option of extending your dumpster rental period, charging a small fee around $50-$100 per day on average.
\r\n\r\nPaints, solvents, tires, electronics, and appliances often aren’t allowed due to disposal regulations. Ask for a full list so you can plan ahead.
\r\n\r\nWeight limits vary by dumpster size and material type. Heavy debris like concrete or roofing shingles can reach the limit quickly. Knowing how much different C&D debris weighs or how much general junk weighs will help you know you're renting the right size for your project.
\r\n\r\nIf the dumpster will sit on the street or sidewalk, your city may require a dumpster permit. Your provider can usually help you obtain one.
\r\n\r\nMake sure there’s enough clearance for the delivery truck and protect your driveway with plywood if needed.
\r\n\r\nThe driver will need a clear, flat surface for placement. Move vehicles out of the way, and if possible, mark your preferred spot with cones or tape. Placing plywood under the dumpster helps protect driveways from scratches or cracks. Oftentimes, companies provide boards for under the dumpster themselves.
\r\n\r\nOnce you’ve filled the dumpster, it will be picked up on the scheduled pick-up day. However, you can often call and let the company know your dumpster is ready for pick-up if you're done filling it before your rental period is up. Some companies require 24-48 hours’ notice, so keep that in mind as well. If your project runs long, don’t wait until it’s full. Extend your rental before it expires to avoid daily overage fees.
\r\n\r\nPro Tip: Take photos of your driveway or yard before and after delivery. It helps resolve any disputes if damage occurs, though this is rare.
\r\n\r\nKnow when major demo days will happen and time delivery accordingly. Having the dumpster arrive too early or late can waste money.
\r\n\r\nSeparate heavy materials like tile or concrete from lighter items. This helps balance weight and makes recycling easier.
\r\n\r\nKeep waste below the top edge of the dumpster. Most haulers won’t pick up an overloaded container for safety reasons.
\r\n\r\nAsk your provider about recycling options for metal, wood, or cardboard. Some companies offer discounts for recycling clean loads.
\r\n\r\nIf multiple people are using a dumpster, like on a job site, label what goes in which dumpster to prevent accidental dumping of prohibited items or contaminating \"clean loads.\"
\r\n\r\nRenting too small a dumpster. It’s the most common mistake, but is easily avoidable. Estimate how many cubic yards (3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft or roughly the size of a kitchen stove) of debris you have and estimate how much the debris will weigh.
\r\n\tIgnoring prohibited item rules. Tossing in paint cans or electronics can result in fines. Different companies have different prohibited items. When you book with Hometown, you'll be provided clear information on what is and
\r\n\tNot checking weight limits. A half-full dumpster with dense debris can still exceed limits. If you're disposing of heavy debris, make sure you abide by the company's directions. Often, you're limited to filling the dumpster halfway or less.
\r\n\tOverfilling or blocking access. If your dumpster is filled above the fill line inside, or if there is insufficient access, the truck driver has the right to refuse pickup if it’s unsafe to pick up the dumpster and haul it,.
\r\n\tForgetting about permits. Many neighborhoods and HOAs have placement rules and limits to how long a dumpster can be placed in your driveway. Check before delivery and make sure you abide by said rules to avoid any HOA headaches.
\r\n\tSchedule delivery early in the week for better availability and quicker swap-outs.
\r\n\tCheck weather forecasts. Cover your dumpster if rain or snow is predicted to prevent water-logging debris and adding weight. Learn more about preparing for rain or severe weather during a dumpster rental.
\r\n\tDon't assume volume equals weight. Heavy debris like concrete, stone, or tile can quickly reach weight limits, so double check how much weight is included in the dumpster's price before booking.
\r\n\tCheck driveway clearance for trucks. Some residential driveways and streets are too narrow, requiring on-street or off-street parking. If that's the cases, you'll likely need a dumpster permit.
\r\n\tWhether you’re doing your own demolition, coordinating with a handyman or local demolition company, or managing a full home renovation, understanding how dumpster rentals work will save you time, money, and stress. By asking the right questions and planning ahead, you’ll keep your project running smoothly from demo to cleanup.

\r\nLocal rental companies don't have to navigate transferring their dumpster inventory from one city/state to another in order to serve their clients, which isn't always the case with large dumpster chains.
\r\n\r\nDue to lower overhead fees, local dumpster rental companies tend to charge less for their services than national disposal chains, like Waste Management.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLarge chains tend to focus on weekly residential trash pickup services, while local dumpster companies specialize in renting temporary residential containers.
\r\n
The average cost to rent a 20 yard dumpster in the U.S. from a local provider is $350-$550, while the same size dumpster typically averages around $100 more in the same area from national chains.

\r\n\r\nOne of the most common and costly mistakes that will have you overpaying for your dumpster rental is to exceed your container's weight limit.
\r\n\r\nMost dumpster rental companies will add an additional fee for going over the container's weight allowance, and this is referred to as an overage fee.
\r\n\r\nThe average cost of overage fees in the U.S. ranges from $50-$100 per ton over the weight limit, but can be more or less depending on where you live and the company's policies.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRenting the right size dumpster is important to help prevent overfilling your container.
\r\n
When speaking with different dumpster rental companies, be as descriptive as possible when discussing your disposal needs.
\r\n\r\nDumpster pros are great at recommending the correct size container for each individual's project as long as they know exactly what is going into the container and how much.
\r\n\r\nRead on:
\r\n\r\nIf you have the time and manpower to load your dumpster in 1-3 days, you may be offered a discount for not taking up the entire rental period.
\r\n\r\nOftentimes, companies aren't willing to offer a discount for shorter rental periods unless they are extremely busy and in need of their dumpsters back as quickly as possible.
\r\n\r\nSome dumpster companies require that you call them once you are ready for them to come pick up your rental, while others will schedule a pickup date and time before they even deliver the container.
\r\n\r\nIf you need an extension to keep the dumpster longer than the initial rental period, you'll be charge a small fee of around $20 per day on average.
\r\n\r\nThere is certain material that cannot be mixed with other material.
\r\n\r\nYard waste, for example, cannot be mixed with any other type of material. The same is typically true of construction or demolition debris.
\r\n\r\nIf the company you rent a dumpster from tells you not to mix certain types of material and you do not abide by those rules, you will likely be charged additional fees and penalties for their additional labor to separate the material or to cover the additional fees they receive at the landfill.
\r\n\r\nThere are certain items banned in landfills across the U.S., like tires, motor oil, car batteries, paint, and more.
\r\n\r\nBe sure to get a complete list of prohibited items from the dumpster rental company and be diligent in making sure to follow that list.
\r\n\r\nFailing to do so will result in additional fines and fees.

\r\n\r\nIf applicable, military, veteran, student, and senior discounts are all common small discount programs that are often honored by smaller, locally-owned companies.
\r\n\r\nIt's also not unusual for companies to run promotions across different platforms online, so doing a quick Google search for promo codes or simply asking the dumpster company you speak with if they have any current promotions is ever a bad idea.
\r\n\r\nAs the saying goes, \"You'll never know unless you ask.\"
\r\n\r\nIf you only have a couple large items to get rid of that won't necessarily fill a whole dumpster, you might save money by hiring a professional junk removal service instead.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWith less than 7 cubic yards of items to get rid of, not only can junk removal services be more cost-efficient than renting a dumpster, but it is unarguably more convenient.
\r\n
Junk removal companies will typically send a crew of 2 people to come and remove your items for you, so you don't have to do any of the heavy lifting or loading.
\r\n\r\nJust like with dumpsters rental services, it's recommended to get multiple junk removal quotes before choosing a provider to hire to make sure you're getting the best price.
\r\n\r\nSome junk removal companies will be able to give you a quote if you provide a photo of the items you need removed while others will require that they send a crew to come asses your items in person in order to provide you with the most accurate quote possible.
\r\n\r\nHometown can help you find local junk removal providers in your area and request quotes from multiple providers in order to get the best price, customer service, and availability.

Because basements are out of sight, they tend to collect years (or decades) of stored items, from old furniture and boxed belongings to broken appliances and unused exercise equipment. Add in stairs, narrow doorways, and heavier materials, and it’s easy to underestimate how much debris you’ll actually be removing.
\r\n\r\nThat’s why renting a dumpster is one of the easiest and safest ways to handle a basement cleanout.
\r\n\r\nIf you’re planning your first basement cleanout or renting a dumpster for the first time, the big question is usually:
\r\n\r\n\"What size dumpster do I need for a basement cleanout?\"
\r\n\r\nBelow, we’ll break down the most common dumpster sizes for basement projects, what each size can realistically hold, and how to choose the right option based on the amount and weight of what’s stored in your basement, without paying for space you won’t use.
\r\n\r\nA 10 yard dumpster can work well for small basements or partial cleanouts, especially when you’re only removing items from one area rather than clearing the entire space.
\r\n\r\nA 10 yard dumpster is typically a good fit for:
\r\n\r\nTypical capacity: 50-70 contractor bags
\r\n\r\nBest for: Homeowners doing a light declutter or cleaning out only part of the basement
\r\n\r\nIf your basement contains furniture, shelving, or bulky items, this size may fill up faster than expected.
\r\n\r\nFor many homeowners, a 15 yard dumpster offers the best balance of space and cost for a basement cleanout. It’s large enough to handle mixed household items without being oversized.
\r\n\r\nThis size works well for:
\r\n\r\nTypical capacity: 80-100 contractor bags
\r\n\r\nWho it’s for: Homeowners who want a safe middle-ground size that can handle most basement projects
\r\n\r\nIf you're unsure how much is really down there, this size is often the safest starting point.
\r\n\r\nIf your basement is packed wall-to-wall or hasn’t been cleaned out in years, a 20 yard dumpster is usually the smartest choice. Basement items tend to be bulkier and heavier, which means space and weight limits matter.
\r\n\r\nA 20 yard dumpster is ideal for:
\r\n\r\nTypical capacity: 110-130+ contractor bags
\r\n\r\nWho it’s for: Homeowners who want everything gone in one load without worrying about running out of space
\r\n![\"piles](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/piles-of-old-junk-in-basement.png\")
\r\nBefore booking a dumpster, ask yourself the following basement-specific questions:
\r\n\r\nPartially full → 10-15 yard
\r\n\r\nCompletely packed → 20 yard
\r\n\r\nYes → 15-20 yard
\r\n\r\nNo → 10 yard
\r\n\r\nBasement cleanouts often include weighty items like old furniture, appliances, or gym equipment. Heavier debris fills dumpsters faster and counts toward weight limits.
\r\n\r\nA 20 yard dumpster gives you extra breathing room and typically includes a higher weight allowance, often 3-5 tons (6,000-10,000 lbs).
\r\n\r\nIf yes, choose the next size up.
\r\n\r\nIt’s almost always cheaper to get a slightly larger dumpster than to order a second one later.
\r\n\r\nWhile junk removal services are an option, a dumpster is often the simplest solution for basement cleanouts, especially when stairs and tight access points slow the process.
\r\n\r\nA dumpster allows you to:
\r\n\r\nHaving a dumpster on-site also makes it easier to sort items for donation, recycling, and disposal without feeling pressured to finish in a single day.
\r\n\r\nWorking with a local dumpster rental company offers several advantages:
\r\n\r\nSearch local haulers on Hometown that offer 10 yard, 15 yard, and 20 yard dumpsters so you can choose the size that fits your basement cleanout without overpaying or running out of space.
\r\n\r\nConclusion: Most Basement Cleanouts Need a 15 or 20 Yard Dumpster
\r\n
\r\nBecause basements often hide years of storage and include heavier, bulkier items, most basement cleanouts require more space than homeowners initially expect. For anything beyond a light declutter, a 15 or 20 yard dumpster is usually the best choice.
\r\n
\r\nThe cost difference is often minimal, and the extra space helps ensure your entire basement cleanout is completed in one haul — without stress, delays, or surprise overage fees.
From forgotten storage to bulky furniture, find the right dumpster size for a basement cleanout and avoid paying for space you don’t need.

\r\n\r\nReplacing old carpet with water-resistant laminate or beautiful hardwood increases the beauty and overall value of your home or business.
\r\n\r\nRemoving carpet is a relatively simple DIY project, but you'll also be responsible for disposing of that carpet.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRenting a temporary roll-off dumpster is typically the best solution for carpet disposal.
\r\n
If you are only disposing of carpet from a single room, or less than 7 cubic yards (189 square feet) of carpeting, then junk removal services may be a more cost-effective option.
\r\n\r\nA 10 or 20 yard dumpster rental costs $250-$550 on average and can accommodate a relatively large carpet removal project.
\r\n\r\nHiring a junk removal company to remove a single room's worth of carpet can quickly end up costing $200-$400 in some cases.
\r\n\r\nOn the rare chance your carpet is still salvageable, a local charity or Habitat for Humanity ReStore may accept it for donation, so reach out to them first to see if they accept the carpet you're getting rid of.
\r\n\r\nIf you have more than a single room's worth of carpet to get rid of, the specific amount of carpet you're removing will dictate the dumpster size that's best for your project.
\r\n\r\nFor example, removing an entire home's worth of carpet—or an entire corporate office's worth—will require a larger dumpster than a project that only involves replacing the carpet in a single room, like the basement or main living room.
\r\n\r\nWith average dimensions of 12 feet long by 8 feet wide, most 10 yard dumpsters can easily hold standard-width carpet rolls without issue. However, cutting your carpet into more manageable pieces will make it easier to handle and carry your carpet out of the building and into the dumpster.
\r\n\r\nHere's a closer look at how much carpet can fit in the most popular dumpster sizes to give you a better idea of which container size is right for your carpet removal project...
\r\n\r\n10 yard containers are ideal for 1,000-2,000 sq ft of carpeting or less.
\r\n\r\nAverage Dimensions: 12 ft L x 8 ft W x 3.5 ft H
\r\n\r\nAverage Weight Limit: 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 lbs)
\r\n\r\n20 yard containers are perfect for holding 2,000-4,000 sq ft of carpet.
\r\n\r\nAverage Dimensions: 22 ft L x 8 ft W x 4 ft H
\r\n\r\nAverage Weight Limit: 3-5 tons (6,000-10,000 lbs)
\r\n\r\n30 yard containers are the best choice when you have 3,000-6,000 sq ft of carpeting or less.
\r\n\r\nAverage Dimensions: 22 ft L x 8 ft W x 6 ft H
\r\n\r\nAverage Weight Limit: 4-6 tons (8,000-12,000 lbs)
\r\n\r\n40 yarders are best for very large carpet removal projects that involve removing 4,000-8,000 square feet of carpeting or less.
\r\n\r\nAverage Dimensions: 22 ft L x 8 ft W x 8 ft H
\r\n\r\nAverage Weight Limit: 6-8 tons (12,000-16,000 lbs)

\r\n\r\nLandfill \"real estate\" is precious and limited, and we are all sitting on a huge opportunity to reduce our contributions with plenty of recycling options at our fingertips.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRecycling is the environmentally responsible thing to do, but there are rules you must follow in order to not contaminate a batch of recyclables.
\r\n
Not following these rules can lead to recyclables having to be tossed into a landfill, producing the exact opposite results you were trying for.
\r\n\r\nWe'll go over everything you need to know about cardboard recycling for homes and businesses so you can ensure your recycling efforts don't go to waste.
\r\n\r\nAs mentioned above, one of the more obvious benefits of recycling cardboard is conserving landfill space, but that is only the beginning of a long list of cardboard recycling benefits.
\r\n\r\nMany of us were taught in school that recycling cardboard and paper helps reduce the amount of trees that are cut down, but how many trees are we actually preserving?
\r\n\r\nFor every ton of cardboard that is recycled, 17 trees are preserved, which can absorb around 250 pounds of carbon dioxide from the air each year!
\r\n\r\nFor every ton (2,000 lbs) of cardboard that is recycled, we save roughly:
\r\n\r\nIf you're someone who is less concerned with the environment than you are the economy, there are plenty of economical benefits to recycling cardboard and other materials as well.
\r\n\r\nA new study by Eco-Cycle indicates that if the United States could transition to a 75% recycling rate by the year 2030, we would create an estimate 1-2 million new jobs!
\r\n\r\nThese job creations aren't your run-of-the-mill minimum wage jobs, either. The recycling industry offers their employees competitive wages and health benefits.
\r\n\r\nWith so many benefits to recycling, it's a wonder why anyone would choose not to take advantage of free recycling programs.

\r\n\r\nOne of the most important things to keep in mind when recycling cardboard is that it is crucial to keep all paper and cardboard products clean.
\r\n\r\nIn a mixed recycling bin where you throw aluminum, glass, plastic, paper, and cardboard, you're much more likely to get cross contamination from foods or liquids which can ruin an entire bale of recyclable cardboard.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe best recycling practice is to keep cardboard and paper separate from other types of recyclables so that they can remain clean and free of contaminants.
\r\n
It's also important to understand the different types of cardboard products we use and what they can sometimes be lined or mixed with.
\r\n\r\nWhile most cardboard and paperboard products can be recycled, there are some products that are lined with plastic film or coated with wax, and these items should be thrown away rather than recycled.
\r\n\r\nIt's not unusual for boxes that contain frozen items to be lined with wax or plastic to prevent them from getting soggy, so if you can't verify that your frozen boxes are recyclable, err on the side of caution and throw it away.
\r\n\r\nAnother important note to remember is that cardboard that has embellishments like foil, glitter, or velvet should also be thrown away rather than recycled.
\r\n\r\nThe best practices for recycling any type of material is to understand exactly what can and can't go in your bin, specifically in your area.
\r\n\r\nSome recycling facilities can handle certain products that others cannot.
\r\n\r\nFor example, most recycling centers can't recycle cardboard lined with plastic.
\r\n\r\nThere are, however, some recycling centers that have special machines that can separate this plastic from cardboard or paperboard.
\r\n\r\nAs a general rule, cardboard boxes with mailing labels or packing tape are okay to be tossed into your recycling, but there are some exceptions to this rule at certain facilities.
\r\n\r\nThat's why it's important to get a list of accepted material directly from your waste management company so that you aren't mistakingly contaminating the cardboard or other items you're trying to recycle because rules can vary from one community to the next.
\r\n\r\n![\"Cardboard](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/cardboard-2.jpg\")
\r\nThere are many common mistakes well-intentioned people make when recycling cardboard.
\r\n\r\nOne of the most common is tossing in pizza boxes with grease stains.
\r\n\r\nWhile cardboard is a recyclable material, no paper products that are contaminated with food should be recycled.
\r\n\r\nIf the top half of your pizza box does not have any grease on it, feel free to separate that from the bottom half of your pizza box and put it into your recycling as long as you're sure it's clean.
\r\n\r\nAnother common mistake people make is not breaking down large cardboard boxes when placing them into their recycling bin.
\r\n\r\nMake sure to always break down cardboard boxes to preserve space not only in your personal bin, but in the recycling truck.
\r\n\r\nDepending on how large the box is, it may be necessary to cut your cardboard up into more manageable sized pieces.
\r\n\r\nCheck with your local facility to learn more.
\r\n\r\nIf your curbside trash service also offers recycling, having your recycling picked up at the end of your driveway is certainly the most convenient option.
\r\n\r\nFor those who live in areas where this isn't offered, however, there are plenty of other recycling options available.
\r\n\r\nIt's becoming more and more common for communities to offer drop-off recycling programs or community dumpsters at different drop-off locations for recyclables.
\r\n\r\nMichigan, for example, has a cardboard and paper recycling program called PaperGator where residents can deposit their recyclable paper products into dumpster containers at several designated drop-off locations.
\r\n\r\nIf you need help locating a community recycling program, visit Earth 911 to find recycling centers or programs near you. You can type in the specific type of material you'd like to recycle, as well as your zip code, and you'll be shown recycling solutions near you.
\r\n\r\nIf you're a business or contractor that has large amounts of cardboard to recycle that won't fit in your curbside collection, consider renting a dumpster for your recycling efforts.
\r\n\r\nOr, if you have a lot of cardboard to recycle but not enough to justify renting a dumpster, consider hiring a junk removal company to haul away your cardboard for you.
\r\n\r\nA junk removal company will be able to recycle all your cardboard products on your behalf without you having to lift a finger.
