How to rent a dumpster in Ottawa in four easy steps

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

• PLAN AHEAD OF TIME

  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.

  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.

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 match. 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 big for your job and end up with too much leftover volume. Renting the perfect dumpster for your job will save you a lot of dollars and time over hauling the garbage by yourself. The following are some very useful tips when trying to decide on which size dumpster to go with for your specific project so you can be sure you won’t go overboard or underestimate the required space.

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

General Garbage Removal or Remodeling Projects: In general, a 20 cubic yard dumpster is perfect for remodeling a single room in your home, or performing a general cleanup. This size dumpster can carry around six truckloads of trash, which is ordinarily sufficient, but you may need a bigger one for rooms with many cabinets or appliances to dispose of.

Multi-Room Remodeling: When remodeling several rooms in your home or having contracting work performed a 30 cubic yard dumpster is usually an ideal option. This allows for a greater volume of trash to be effortlessly disposed of and will make sure you don’t need various trips to dispose of it.

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

Cleaning Out a Full Home: If you’re undertaking a home cleanup and are removing furniture items, then you’ll likely want a 15 to 20 cubic yard dumpster rental for the average sized home. Much larger homes, however, could benefit from working with a 30 cubic yard dumpster to take care of all the unwanted items you’re getting rid of.

Yard Work or Landscaping: In general, yard work and landscaping waste materials won’t need to have a huge amount of dumpster volume. Because of this, these types of projects usually 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 tasks 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 great deal of waste to dispose of. Heavy waste objects, such as concrete or asphalt, will require a unique heavy-duty dumpster.
