Dumpster Rental in Smyrna, Georgia

How dumpster prices models are determined

There are 4 factors that are considered that impact our pricing model.

• Landfill costs. These will vary from city to city. Each city or county has different fees based on taxing policies. Smyrna uses The Solid Waste Transfer Station located in Marietta. The current minimum price for disposal is $7 for the first 400 pounds of waste. Additional prices will be tacked on for certain items such as propane tanks. Check with Cobb County for a more comprehensive list. The number is:(770) 485-8940. Keep in mind this information is for your edification. Easy Dumpster Rental will gather all this information for your convenience.
• Debris Type is typical of two kinds; Recyclable and hazardous materials. A recyclable item will tend to be charged at a lower price and will be taken to special recycling centers. Hazardous waste will cost more because of the danger inherent in these items and as such, require special handling and need to be dropped off at special facilities that can process hazardous waste.
•  The Weight of the Debris. Typically dumpster range in sizes from a  10- yard up to 40 yards. Obviously, a 40-yard bin can handle much more weight than a 10-yard dumpster. And if you use a larger roll-off, the price will be a little more that say a 20-yard bin. Because you may be concerned that you may need a 20-yard bin so you feel more confident that you will not experience a situation that you will fall short of your needs. But because we have a skilled sales team we will not give a bigger size just to make more money. Easy Dumpster Rental will find the perfect size, no more or no less than what you need. We guarantee that perfect fit. The Length of the Rental Period. Most dumpsters are rented for 14 days or 30 day periods. But don’t worry if your needs change we will work with you and ensure that you have an experience that will not stress you out

Hazardous waste is considered one of the biggest threats to our environment. Many products contain chemicals that can adversely affect not only you but the environment. There are many entry points for these chemicals and you should be aware of them. Factories, landfills, and tanks are few vehicles for hazardous waste to get into our water sources and into you. That’s right. The air we breath is exposed to hazardous chemicals and so is the water we drink. Factories spew toxins all day long. And there isn’t a day or week that goes by when you hear of a spill in the Gulf of Mexico or we find lead in our drinking water lines. We can be exposed to contaminated soil or even dust particles.

Hazardous waste can find a pathway even into our food. We live in a very dangerous world. When chemicals get into our bodies, kidney’s and liver organs do their best to detoxify our systems but not all chemical are eliminated. And they begin to slowly build up and cause damage that is beyond repair. So what can we do to prevent the potential hazardous that these wastes products present?

Well, first of all, know what is considered hazardous. Every product that you bring into your home make sure you read the labels and warnings. Try to find alternative products to use so you can help reduce the amount of waste you are exposed to. If you do have a hazardous waste product that you are using, take steps to ensure you are following the manufacturer’s guidelines on how to use and dispose of the product wisely. If this is unclear call your local county officials for some proper advice. We can’t completely eliminate all hazardous waste we are exposed to on a daily basis but we sure can go a long way of reducing our exposure. Educate yourself and take steps to help us all have a greener, cleaner city. It starts with just one person. And hopefully, we all will do our part to eliminate the dangers that we can control.
