There is always a perfect sized dumpster for each task, but figuring out which size is the best for your specific needs can be challenging. Most people tend to underestimate the quantity of space and volume of the materials they’re disposing of, so it’s always more beneficial to be on the safe side when choosing a dumpster size. You definitely won’t need to rent a super large dumpster if you’re just clearing out your garage or basement. So how can you decide on the right container size for your waste removal job? Here are some of the normal jobs that dumpster rentals are perfect for and the sizes that match effectively with them.

The following are the most frequent projects our customers need a dumpster for and the suggested sizes to rent:

Waste Removal or Basic Remodeling: Each person’s task is unique, but in general a 20 cubic yard dumpster is sufficient for a single room remodel or cleanup. A 20 cubic yard dumpster rental will handle about 6 truckloads of waste, unless you have bigger objects like appliances you’re getting rid of.

Multi-Room Remodeling Projects: When remodeling several rooms in your home or having contracting work done a 30 cubic yard dumpster is generally an ideal option. This size will ensure you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but instead it would only take just one trip.

Basement, Garage or Attic Cleanouts: It’s a good idea to clear out undesired items from your home’s storage areas to free up more space. For the average home storage area, a simple 10 or 15 cubic yard dumpster is ideal. However, if you are getting rid of large items or appliances, then a 20 cubic yard dumpster rental solution would be far better.

Complete Home Cleanup Projects: For stuff such as furniture or large appliances that you’re cleaning out of your home, a 15-20 cubic yard dumpster would be ideal for the typical house. Much bigger homes, however, could benefit from making use of a 30 cubic yard dumpster to handle all the unwanted items you’re removing.

Landscaping or Yard Work: Landscaping, yard or gardening work normally only produce a small amount of waste materials that will not take up a significant amount of space in a dumpster. Therefore, the average yard project will only require a 10 to 15 cubic yard dumpster, unless you are thinking about disposing of numerous tree branches or full shrubbery.

Contracting Work: For large renovation, home improvement or construction initiatives a big dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be ideal. If you have a big renovation project ahead of you, then you can bet they’ll be a lot of waste materials to dispose of. Keep in mind, if you will be disposing of very heavy objects such as concrete or bricks, you’ll want a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

In order to prevent spending more on a large dumpster that you won’t make use of fully you’ll want to very carefully consider the weight of the waste you’re disposing of. In the end, renting a dumpster from Discount Dumpster Rental Columbus is always more efficient and will save you money over traditional waste disposal alternatives.
