You may be amazed by how quickly a dumpster can fill up once you’re throwing your rubbish in it, so here are some handy tips to help you decide on the best sized dumpster for your demands.

Dumpster Sizes for Typical Projects

Remodeling or Waste Removal: In general, a 20 cubic yard dumpster is ideal for remodeling a single room in your residence, or performing a general cleanup. This size dumpster can hold around six truckloads of trash, which is normally adequate, but you may need a larger one for rooms with many cabinets or appliances to dispose of.

Multi-Room Remodeling: When remodeling various rooms in your house or having contracting work carried out a 30 cubic yard dumpster is generally an ideal option. This permits 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 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. However, if you are disposing of large items or appliances, then a 20 cubic yard dumpster rental option would be a great deal better.

Complete Home Cleanout: For things 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 average house. Much larger homes, however, could benefit from making use of a 30 cubic yard dumpster to deal with all the unwanted items you’re getting rid of.

Landscaping Projects: Landscaping, yard or gardening jobs typically only produce a small amount of waste that will not take up a large amount of space in a dumpster. Therefore, the ordinary 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 Work: The best dumpster rental solution for contracting work or large scale projects would be the 40 cubic yard option. If you have a significant renovation project ahead of you, then you can bet they’ll be a lot 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.

The weight of the waste you’re disposing of will typically depend on the materials they’re made out of.

Will I Require a Permit for Dumpster Rentals in Skowhegan?

If you intend on placing the dumpster on public property or an area outside your own property in Skowhegan, then a city permit might be needed first. Most of the time a permit may be required if you’re making use of the dumpster for a construction, cleanup or renovation project that requires the dumpster to be placed on what’s viewed as public property. This includes areas such as sidewalks, street sides and other public areas. In nearly all cases you won’t need to worry about obtaining a permit as long as you’re putting the dumpster on your own private property, with a customer’s driveway being the most popular location.

Avoiding a dumpster placement permit in Skowhegan is fairly easy, as you can simply rent a dumpster that is sized perfectly to fit in your own driveway or any other position on your property. If you own your home then you’ll rarely need a permit as long as you always keep the dumpster on your property and not the public’s. If you are unsure of the local requirements, you can always get in touch with the appropriate Public Works Office in your municipality. Generally, you can simply visit their website and fill out the necessary form for a permit. Keep in mind that if you’re part of a neighborhood Homeowner’s Association, then you may want to look at the local guidelines to see if they contain rules around dumpster rental placements.
