In order to make the ideal, most educated decision for your waste removal efforts it’s crucial to have a general idea of the sizes available. However, it can be tough to estimate the exact quantity of waste that a particular job will generate. Thankfully, there are a range of dumpster sizes that can fit any waste removal job you may have. Although it’s always a good idea to describe your project in detail when renting a dumpster so we can help you select a suitable size, below are some examples of common jobs and the average sized dumpster you’ll need to rent.

Typical Projects and Dumpster Sizes Needed to Finish Them

Remodeling or Waste Removal: Each person’s task is different, but in general a 20 cubic yard dumpster is sufficient for a single room remodel or cleanup. This size dumpster can hold around six truckloads of trash, which is typically enough, but you may need a bigger one for rooms with a lot of cabinets or appliances to dispose of.

Home Remodeling: When remodeling numerous rooms in your house or having contracting work carried out a 30 cubic yard dumpster is typically an ideal option. This permits for a greater volume of trash to be effortlessly disposed of and will make sure you don’t need numerous trips to dispose of it.

Cleaning Out Your Basement, Attic or Garage: It’s a great idea to clear out unwanted items from your home’s storage areas to free up more space. The typical sized home storage area can be cleaned out using a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster. However, if you are disposing of large items or appliances, then a 20 cubic yard dumpster rental solution would be much better.

Full Home Cleanup Projects: For objects 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 average house. Bigger homes, however, could benefit from working with 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 large amount of space in a dumpster. Because of this, these types of projects typically only require a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster unless it consists of a large amount of tree branches.

Contracting Work: For large renovation, home improvement or construction undertakings a large dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be ideal. If you have a sizeable 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 require a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

The weight of the waste products you’re disposing of will typically depend on the materials they’re made out of. If you need help deciding or are unsure of which dumpster would best fit your needs, simply contact Discount Dumpster Rental Lexington at (844) 923-1888 and our helpful staff will get you set up swiftly and easily.

How Much Do Lexington Dumpster Rentals Cost?

In general,you can expect to pay around $180 to $1,000 for a roll-off dumpster rental in Lexington. Dumpsters for rent in Lexington can vary in fees based on a few factors.

One of the biggest factors you need to consider is the size of the roll off 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 payment.

One of the most consistent questions we hear is how is a dumpster rental price determined? The main way in which dumpster rental rates are calculated 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 those two points, the types of materials you’ll be putting in the dumpster may also have an impact on price. 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 think about the types of materials you’ll be throwing in the dumpster, as even if it’s returned only part of the way filled, it might still exceed its weight capacity in the end.

Here are some frequent points that might also factor into the dumpster’s cost:

– Weight of materials.
– Waste that must be specially disposed of.
– Landfill fees on specific goods such as appliances or large furniture.
– Exceeding your selected dumpster’s weight limit.
– Perhaps needing to acquire municipal permits for your area.
– Trying to keep the dumpster for longer than the initial rental period.

Should I Apply for a Permit in Lexington for a Dumpster Rental?

Whether or not you require a dumpster permit is determined by the location of the dumpster and Lexington’s local specifications for the use of public property. You’ll generally only need a permit if you have to place your dumpster on public property. Places like sidewalks, streets and additional public areas are the most common places that may require a permit. The requirements for placing a dumpster on public property are different between areas, but in general you will generally not need one for putting it on your own property.

In order to refrain from having to obtain a permit in Lexington, it’s always better to make sure the dumpster rental size is suitable to be placed on your own property, such as on your driveway. This way you can steer clear of having to obtain a permit as you may if you want to place it on the sidewalk. Applying for a permit is a fairly quick and easy process, however, as simply visiting Lexington’s Public Works website and filling out the proper form will get the job done. In the case of a customer being a part of a local Homeowner’s Association, you’ll want to check with your representative to see if they have guidelines surrounding dumpster placement.
