How The Process Of Dumpster Rentals Work

Renting a dumpster is an extremely easy way for you to dump out large amounts of debris in your home. This is great for big home projects, such as kitchen remodeling or landscaping remodeling. However, many people are wary about the process of renting a dumpster. Here's how it works and why it's going to be a great option for you when going through the process of a large home project:

  • First: The first thing you are going to do is hire a dumpster rental company. You can call by phone to discuss the size you need and the length of time you will need it for. From here, they will set up a time for the dumpster to be dropped off at your home. Be sure that there is a clear spot for it on your property that is flat and does not have anything hanging overhead of it, such as wires or tree branches. 
  • Second: Once the dumpster is delivered, you are going to want to fill it according to the rules. Do not dump anything that is considered hazardous. The dumpster rental company will provide you with a list of what items are considered hazardous. You should also not go over the weight limit. The best way to ensure that this does not happen is to not overfill the dumpster while also not dumping anything that is extremely heavy. If you have something extremely heavy, such as an old toilet or refrigerator, you can have someone pick it up to take it to the dump. 
  • Third: Schedule a pickup time once you are done with the use of the dumpster. Once you do this, the dumpster company will pick up the dumpster and take it to the landfill to dump it. However, before they dump it, it will be weighed. This is the exact reason you don't want to go over the weight limit. If the dumpster is heavier than weight capacity, you will be charged a fee at this point. 
  • Fourth: If you still need to dump items, be sure to let the dumpster rental company know that you will need the dumpster back. They can either bring back the same one or you can schedule to have a smaller or larger size delivered to your home. 

When you know how the process of dumpster rentals work, you can be sure that you go into it with a bit more knowledge and confidence knowing that this is the right thing to do for your home project. Contact a company like Horizon Disposal Servies Inc. for more information and assistance.
