2 Questions To Ask When Renting A Dumpster For Your Home Construction Project

Blog

If you are planning a home construction project that will require a major overhaul of your house, renting a roll-off dumpster is a good way to help handle the disposal of both the old materials as well as scraps of the new ones. When you call to schedule the rental and delivery of such a container, ask the following questions to help give you enough information to prepare for its arrival and usage.

1.  How Much Space Will Be Needed in Your Yard for the Dumpster?

The first question you should ask when calling about renting a dumpster is in regards to how much space you will need on your property on the day it arrives. The answer to this inquiry will depend on the size of the container that you will need as well as its particular dimensions.

To help determine what size you need, speak with the rental service, and let them know exactly what you will be doing and how many rooms worth of refuse you will have. They can help guide you to the selection of the right size.

Once you have settled on the size, ask about the ground area it will require. You should also ask about its height to make sure that it will fit under any low-lying branches or the eaves of your home if you decide to have it placed close by.

2.  What Types of Debris Is Allowed for Disposal in the Container?

Another question you should ask when renting dumpsters for your home construction project is about the types of debris that are allowed in the container. While normal remodeling debris such as wood, drywall, plywood, and other materials are allowed, there may be restrictions, depending on the service from which you rent.

For example, while house debris may be allowed, they may not allow regular home garbage to be placed in the container. Also, specialty items such as automotive parts, old paint cans, and tires typically need special disposal methods. As such, you most likely will not be allowed to place any of these items in the container.

Knowing the answers to the above questions before the container is delivered to your property can help you prepare for its arrival as well as make other arrangements for items that are not allowed for disposal. For the answers to further questions as well as specific information and requirements, speak with a representative with a dumpster rental service near you.
