FAQs

Proper preparation is key for efficient dumpster use. Consider the size and quantity of items you'll be disposing of, as this affects space utilization. Larger items take up more room, while numerous smaller items can add significant weight. Organizing your waste in advance will help you make the most of the dumpster's capacity and streamline the loading process.

Choose a location that offers easy access and ensures safe placement. Make sure there are no obstacles such as low-hanging wires or tree branches. It's also important to leave enough space to open the dumpster's rear door if needed. Contact us today to arrange your dumpster rental.

The ideal dumpster size depends on your specific project and disposal needs. We offer a range of sizes to suit various requirements. Consumer Affairs notes that the most common dumpster sizes are 10 to 40 yards, and we're pleased to provide options within this range. Please reach out to our office to discuss your project details, and we'll help you select the most appropriate dumpster size.

A firm, level surface is best to avoid property damage. If you're worried about rain or snow getting into the dumpster, ask us about our plastic tarp options designed to cover the container and protect its contents from the elements. Don't hesitate to call for more advice on dumpster placement.

Safety should be your top priority during the loading process. Handle items carefully and ensure you have sufficient help when lifting heavy or awkward objects. These precautions will help reduce the risk of accidents and injuries while filling the dumpster. Contact us to begin your dumpster rental experience.

Filling the dumpster beyond its top edge is not allowed. All items must remain at or below the container's upper rim. Exceeding this limit can create hazardous transport conditions and may lead to additional fees or even refusal of service. If you have any questions about our rental guidelines, please don't hesitate to contact our team.

When renting our dumpsters, certain materials are prohibited from disposal. These include hazardous substances like asbestos, chemicals, paints, and any type of liquid. If you're unsure about whether a particular item is acceptable, please contact our office for clarification before attempting to dispose of it.

While the dumpster itself can be positioned on your lawn, our trucks are not permitted to drive on or across grassy areas. This is to prevent potential damage for which we cannot be held responsible. Please plan the dumpster placement accordingly to protect your lawn. Call us today to schedule your dumpster rental.

We advise against attempting to reposition the dumpster on your own. If you need the dumpster moved, please contact our customer service department. We'll arrange for our trained personnel to safely relocate the dumpster. Get in touch with Affordable Dumpster Rentals for all your roll-off container and dumpster needs.
