How to rent a dumpster in Guilford in four easy steps

Follow the process listed below to ensure you have a smooth dumpster rental experience:

  • Renting a dumpster is generally not a spur of the moment thing. Determine your project’s disposal needs at least two weeks ahead of time. Call at least a week in advance to book the dumpster, or two week in advance during busy months (spring, summer and fall). That way you can rest assured knowing the dumpster will be there when you need it.

  • Be sure you’re getting the best price, dumpster and service for your project by getting quotes from multiple dumpster provideres. Our recommendation is for you to contact at least two or three.

  • Make sure the drop off location has easy access and no obstructions, such as cars, furniture, kid’s toys, or even fences (if applicable).

  • Avoid the headaches later on and: Don’t over-fill the dumpster, avoid disposing of prohibited items (e.g., hazardous wastes), don’t mix trash in with clean loads (e.g., concrete only), and follow other guidelines given to you by the dumpster rental company.

If you follow those 4 easy steps, you’ll find the experience to be much more smooth! If you need any assistance, feel free to call us for fast and friendly help!

The first thing you’ll want to do when renting a dumpster is get a basic idea of the sizes available and types of jobs each one will fit. You don’t want to end up going over the dumpster’s weight restriction or space, and you definitely don’t want to rent one too massive for your job and end up with too much leftover volume. Renting the ideal dumpster for your job will save you a lot of money and time over hauling the garbage by yourself. You might be surprised by how rapidly a dumpster can fill up once you’re throwing your rubbish in it, so here are some helpful tips to help you come to a decision on the best sized dumpster for your demands.

Below are just a few of the standard jobs customers have used our dumpsters for and the sizes that could possibly be right for your own project:

Basic Remodeling or General Waste Removal: In general, a 20 cubic yard dumpster is perfect for remodeling a single room in your house, or performing a basic 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.

Home Remodeling: When remodeling several rooms in your house or having contracting work performed a 30 cubic yard dumpster is generally an ideal option. This size will make sure you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but instead it would only take a single trip.

Storage Area Cleanups: Sorting through unwanted items or debris from your storage areas is a great way to free up more space or room in your home. For the average home storage area, a simple 10 or 15 cubic yard dumpster is best. However, if you are getting rid of large items or appliances, then a 20 cubic yard dumpster rental choice would be better.

Complete Home Cleanout: For stuff such as furniture or large appliances that you’re cleaning out of your home, a 15-20 cubic yard dumpster would be perfect for the typical house. For larger sized homes, however, a 30 cubic yard dumpster would be a considerably better option since it would amount to around 9 regular truckloads of waste.

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 considering disposing of many tree branches or full shrubbery.

Contracting Projects: For large renovation, home improvement or construction tasks a large dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be ideal. If you have a significant renovation project ahead of you, then you can bet they’ll be lots of waste 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.

If you have a particularly one of a kind project or are not sure of the dumpster size that would be the best fit for you, you can always get in touch with our representatives at (844) 923-1888 and simply tell us a little bit about the waste you’re disposing of.

What is the Average Cost of a Dumpster Rental in Guilford?

In general,you can expect to pay around $185 to $1,000 for a roll-off container rental in Guilford. Dumpsters for rent in Guilford can vary in fees based on many things.

One of the largest factors you need to consider is the size of the dumpster. You must plan which type of bin to get so you can avoid paying extra rental fees. For small types of bins, you can expect to pay around $200. If you require a larger dumpster, you may spend close to $1000. Most rental services include the travel costs into the final bill without you even knowing. Always double check the final fees with the provider before handing over your credit card information.

You may be asking yourself, how is the level for my dumpster rental going to be determined? The main way in which dumpster rental rates are worked out is by the size/volume of the container. The larger and more volume the dumpster holds, the higher rate it will have. The next factor in cost is how long, or how many days, you’ll need your dumpster rental for. Other than size and length of time the dumpster is being rented for, there may also be charges depending on the materials you’ll be disposing of. Items with a lot of weight to them, like concrete, bricks or roofing shingles, may require a special type of dumpster that can handle these heavy loads. For this reason, it’s important to take into consideration the types of materials you’ll be tossing in the dumpster, as even if it’s returned only part of the way filled, it may still exceed its weight capacity in the end.

Also be aware of the following guidelines that could factor into the price of your dumpster rental:

– Overall weight of the waste items.
– Hazardous materials or waste requiring special disposal treatments.
– Possible landfill fees for large goods such as mattresses or big appliances.
– Going above your dumpster’s weight limit.
– Possibly needing to acquire municipal permits for your area.
– Extending the initial period of rental for the dumpster.

Will I Need a Permit in Guilford for a Dumpster Rental?

If you intend on placing the dumpster on public property or an area outside your own property in Guilford, then a city permit might be necessary first. A permit may also be necessary if you are taking part in a construction, cleanup or renovation undertaking that requires the dumpster to be positioned in a location other than your driveway, such as the sidewalk or alongside the street. In many cases you won’t need to worry about getting a permit as long as you’re positioning the dumpster on your own private property, with a customer’s driveway being the most frequent location.

One of the very best ways to avoid requiring a permit is to simply rent a dumpster size that is ideal for your own driveway or property. This will ensure that you can avoid setting it on public property and possibly having to obtain a permit. When in doubt you can also confer with the Guilford Public Works Department. As long as the dumpster doesn’t get in the way of public access most locations won’t require a permit for placement. If you do end up needing a permit it’s as simple as contacting the local Guilford Public Works department or checking out their website and filling out the appropriate forms.
