Tips for Choosing the Right Size
When in Doubt, Size Up
It's better to have a little extra room than to need a second dumpster. The price difference between sizes is often minimal compared to ordering twice.
Consider the Weight
Heavy materials like concrete, brick, and dirt fill up weight limits quickly. For these materials, you may need a larger dumpster even for smaller volumes.
Think About Access
Make sure you have enough space for the dumpster you choose. Measure your driveway and consider overhead clearance. Our drivers are experienced with tight spaces.
