How to rent a dumpster in Lexington in four easy steps

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

• PLAN AHEAD OF TIME

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.

What Size Of Dumpster Will I Need For My Project in Lexington?

10 Yard Dumpster

10 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 4 pick-up trucks of waste material. These dumpsters are most often used for smaller projects such as garage/basement clean outs, small bathroom remodels, kitchen remodels, small roof replacements up to 1500 sq ft or a small deck removal up to 500 sq ft.

20 Yard Dumpster

20 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 8 pick-up trucks of waste material. They’re often used for projects like flooring or carpet removal for a large house, roof replacements up to 3,000 sq ft, deck removal up to 400 sq ft, or large garage/basement clean outs.

30 Yard Dumpster

30 yard roll off dumpsters hold about 12 pick up trucks of waste material. They are most often used for projects like new home constructions, large home additions, siding or window replacements for a small to medium sized house, or garage/basement demolition.

40 Yard Dumpster

40 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 16 pick up trucks of waste material. They’re often used for large projects like commercial clean outs, window replacement or siding for a large home, large home renovations, large construction projects, or large commercial roofing projects.

Renting the right sized dumpster is the most crucial factor in having your waste removal project go smoothly. You don’t want to end up going over the dumpster’s weight limitation or space, and you certainly don’t want to rent one too massive for your project and end up with too much leftover volume. Dumpster rentals are a great way to save both effort and cash over alternative garbage removal options like driving to the landfills yourself. The following are some useful tips when trying to make a decision on which size dumpster to go with for your particular project so you can be sure you won’t go overboard or underestimate the needed space.

Dumpster Sizes for Common Projects

Basic Remodeling or General Garbage Removal: Each person’s job is different, but in general a 20 cubic yard dumpster is adequate for a single room remodel or cleanup. This size dumpster can carry around six truckloads of trash, which is generally more than enough, but you may need a bigger one for rooms with a lot of cabinets or appliances to dispose of.

Multi-Room Remodeling: If you have more than one room you’re going to be working on, then it’s a great idea to upgrade to a 30 cubic yard dumpster size. 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 one trip.

Garage, Attic or Basement Cleanouts: It’s a great 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 perfect. If you have sizeable items, such as appliances, you may want a 20 yarder just to be on the safe side.

Complete Home Cleanup Projects: For items such as furniture or large appliances that you’re cleaning out of your home, a 15-20 cubic yard dumpster would be best for the average house. For larger homes, however, a 30 cubic yard dumpster would be a much better choice since it would amount to around 9 regular truckloads of waste.

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

Construction Projects: For large renovation, home improvement or construction initiatives a large dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be perfect. Anytime you expect a large amount of debris to be produced by your job, having a larger sized dumpster is the safest bet. Keep in mind, if you will be disposing of very heavy objects such as concrete or bricks, you’ll require a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

What Can I Expect to Spend on a Dumpster Rental in Lexington?

Generally,you can expect to pay around $190 to $1,000 for a roll-off container rental in Lexington. Dumpsters for rent in Lexington can vary in fees based on many things.

One of the major 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 companies include the travel costs into the final bill without you even knowing. Always double check the final rates with the provider before handing over payment.

One of the most common questions we hear is how is a dumpster rental price 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 based upon on the materials you’ll be disposing of. Items with a lot of weight to them, like concrete, bricks or roofing shingles, may call for a special type of dumpster that can handle these heavy loads. It’s important to take this into consideration, as you may not end up filling your dumpster to the top, but you could still exceed its weight capacity depending on the type of waste material you’re disposing of.

Cost of your dumpster rental may also be impacted by the following:

– Weight of items.
– Waste that would be deemed hazardous materials.
– Possible landfill fees for big objects such as mattresses or big appliances.
– Going over your selected dumpster’s weight limit.
– Any permits that must be acquired.
– Trying to keep the dumpster for longer than the original rental period.

Does Lexington Require a Permit for Dumpster Rentals and Placement?

If you plan on placing the dumpster on public property or an area outside your own property in Lexington, then a city permit may be needed first. A permit may also be essential if you are taking part in a construction, cleanup or renovation undertaking that requires the dumpster to be placed in a location other than your driveway, such as the sidewalk or alongside the street. In the majority of cases you won’t need to worry about getting a permit as long as you’re placing the dumpster on your own private property, with a customer’s driveway being the most prevalent location.

There is a Public Works Department located in your local Lexington municipality that is accountable for issuing numerous permits, including ones for setting dumpsters on public property. You can either visit the office in person and fill out the form there or they’ll in most cases just have an electronic form on their website to fill out. Just fill out the correct form provided and submit it to the department. You can usually perform this either in person, over the phone or online. Your application should be approved within 24 hours of submission, which means it won’t hold you up or stop your dumpster from being delivered on time. How much your permit will cost you depends on where you’re positioning it, the type of project you’re performing and how long it will take up public property for.
