So, if for example, you would like to remodel your bathroom or kitchen, the most obvious way to haul away all that trash and materials is to use a roll-off.

Preparing The Site For Your Residential Dumpster Rental

After you decide that you do need a dumpster you may have questions concerning site preparation and where to put the dumpster when it arrives. Our sales staff can give you a ton of tips and help you make the right decisions. You may want to know if you should put the bin on your lawn, in the driveway, or possibly in the street.

If you decide that the lawn is the best choice for your needs, it will be a great idea to go to your local lumber store and get some plywood. The plywood would be placed under the dumpster’s wheels to protect your yard. The dumpsters do get quite heavy. Ditto for the driveway.

If you feel a better option is to place it in the street, you may need to check with your local city officials concerning the permitting process. We will also instruct you on the proper method of filling the dumpster so that you optimize all the volume available to you.

And make sure nothing is piled too high or sticking out of the sides. We have laws we must abide by to protect the public as the dumpster travels city streets. If you live in a gated community make sure you talk to the homeowners association so there will not be any issues bringing a dumpster into the community.

And, if all possible, try to be home when we deliver the dumpster so there is no miscommunication on where you would like it placed. So, there you go. Easy. Just like our name implies, Easy Dumpster Rental.
