A smaller dumpster, such as a 10 yard container, is ideal for heavy debris like dirt, wet leaves, or logs.
\r\n\r\n
The reason it’s not common for dumpster rental companies to rent out 30 or 40 yard dumpsters for heavy debris is that the weight would exceed the lifting capacity of the roll-off truck.
The cost to rent a dumpster for yard waste is generally the same as renting it for general household waste or construction debris.
\r\n\r\n
However, some rental companies charge less for yard debris due to some recycling centers being less expensive compared to paying for landfill tipping fees.
It’s hard to beat the time-saving convenience aspect of renting a dumpster for bulk amounts of yard debris.
\r\n\r\n
Alternative disposal methods, such as using a utility trailer and hauling it yourself, may seem like a money-saving option, but this is not always the case.
\r\n\r\n
Having a 10+ yard dumpster on site allows for fast, easy loading and offers the convenience of having the dumpster rental company pick it up and haul it to the processing facility for you.
\r\n\r\n
You save time and fuel costs compared to hauling it yourself.
Renting a dumpster for yard waste offers convenience, speed, and a great value for cleaning up large landscaping projects. Read our guide to get started with your yard waste removal today

The average time it takes for plastic to start decomposing in landfills is 700 years!
\r\n\r\n
Knowing this, it's no wonder consumers and businesses are being called now more than ever to recycle plastic as often as possible.
\r\n\r\n
We have a great opportunity to reduce the size of our landfills at a time when landfill \"real estate\" is limited and dwindling by the day.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
Recycling is a great cause but there are rules you must follow in order to not contaminate a batch of recyclables.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Not following these rules can lead to recyclables having to be tossed into a landfill, producing the exact opposite results you were trying for.
\r\n\r\n
We'll go over everything you need to know about plastic recycling for homes and businesses so you can ensure your recycling efforts don't go to waste.
As we've already mentioned, one of the more obvious benefits of recycling plastic is conserving landfill space, but that only just scratches the surface of the many benefits of plastic recycling.
\r\n\r\n
Many of us were taught in school that recycling helps keep our environment healthy, but exactly how do our efforts impact the earth?
\r\n\r\n
For every ton (2,000 lbs) of plastic that is recycled:
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\t
30 cubic yards of landfill space is conserved.
\r\n\t
5.774 kWh of energy is conserved. (This is equivalent to the average amount of energy 2 people use over the course of a year!)
\r\n\t
16.3 barrels of oil is conserved.
\r\n\t
98 million BTU's of energy is conserved.
\r\n\t
C02, methane, and other greenhouse gas emission is reduced.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
If you're more motivated by the economy than you are the environment, don't worry, we've got you covered there too.
\r\n\r\n
A new study by Eco-Cycle shows that if the United States could transition to a 75% recycling rate by the year 2030, we would create an estimate 1-2 million new jobs!
\r\n\r\n
Jobs created by the recycling industry aren't minimum wage jobs, either. The recycling industry offers theirs workers competitive wages and health benefits.
One of the most important things to keep in mind when doing recycling of any kind is that it is crucial to keep all recycling products clean of any oil, grease, food, or beverage.
\r\n\r\n
Not making sure to clean out plastic condiment containers or glass sauce jars can contaminate whole batches of recyclables, making your well-intentioned efforts cause more harm than good.
Always read the labeling on your recycling bin and do some independent research by reading your recyclers' website to discover exactly what types of plastic can and cannot be recycled at their facility.
\r\n\r\n
The best practices for recycling any type of material is to understand exactly what can and can't go in your bin, specifically in your area.
\r\n\r\n
Some recycling facilities can handle certain products that others cannot.
\r\n\r\n
That's why it's important to get a list of accepted material directly from your waste management company so that you aren't mistakingly contaminating the plastic or other items you're trying to recycle.
\r\n\r\n
Recyclable plastic is numbered to indicate what type of plastic it is.
\r\n\r\n
Plastic with a recycling label of 1 or 2 is almost always accepted at any plastic recycling facility, plastic labeled as 3 almost never goes in your recycling, and plastic with a label of 6 is only accepted by some plastic recycling plants.
\r\n\r\n
Compostable plastic should never go into your recycling bin with other non-biodegradable plastic and should be composted for the most environmentally-friendly disposal.
\r\n\r\n
As the world becomes more eco-conscious, plastic grocery and shopping bags are starting to be labeled as recyclable, but it is very important to do research about your particular recycling facility and what materials they accept.
\r\n\r\n
While many of these types of grocery bags are labeled as recyclable plastic no. 2, some recycling plants have the proper machinery to recycle these types of plastic bags or film while others can suffer serious repercussions if these types of plastic are put through their machinery.
\r\n\r\n
Throwing plastic bags into your recycling bin that is being transported to a recycling plant that does not accept these items can do serious damage to the machinery it gets sent through, sometimes causing shut downs and delays for whole business days until the proper repairs can be made.
\r\n\r\n
In these instances, you can typically return the recyclable plastic bags back to the establishment that gave them to you so that they can responsibly recycle them for you.
\r\n\r\n
Here is a list of the different number classes that plastic falls into:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\t
PETE (Polyethylene Terephthalate): Plastic bottles, microwavable food trays, cosmetic bottles, mouthwash bottles, etc.
Polycarbonate, BPA, and Other Plastics: Baby bottles, water coolers, food containers, car parts, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n
The most commonly recycled types of plastic are 1 and 2.
\r\n\r\n
In some circumstances, some types of 4, 5, and 7 plastic can be recycled.
\r\n\r\n
Very rarely, some types of 3 and 6 plastic can be recycled.
\r\n\r\n
It can feel overwhelming when you first make the conscious effort to recycle, but it really is more straight-forward than it looks at first glance.
\r\n\r\n
Get used to looking for the recycling symbol on different types of plastic and check for a number in the center of it.
\r\n\r\n
After you've made sure you understand what types of materials are accepted at your recycling facility and once you get used to checking plastic for their number categories, it really does become second nature.
\r\n\r\n
If you're lucky enough to live in an area that offers a free curbside recycling program, take advantage of the program to save space in your trash bin and save money on monthly household disposal costs!
\r\n\r\n
Things to Avoid When Recycling Plastic
\r\n\r\n
There are many common mistakes well-intentioned people make when recycling plastic.
\r\n\r\n
One of the most common is tossing in plastic that isn't labeled as recyclable or contributing recyclable plastic that isn't accepted at your particular recycling facility.
\r\n\r\n
It's also important to crush items like plastic water bottles when possible.
\r\n\r\n
Doing so will help conserve space in transfer trucks and recycling bins.
\r\n\r\n
Another common mistake people make is throwing in plastic containers that haven't been cleaned and rinsed of whatever product they were containing.
\r\n\r\n
Plastic cutlery can be too lightweight to be picked up as plastic by recycling machines, placing them in a paper recycling section which can then contaminate and ruin entire batches of recycled paper.
\r\n\r\n
That's why it is so important to make sure what your particular recycling center accepts, because not all recycling machines are made the same.
\r\n\r\n
Check with your local recycling facility to learn more.
\r\n\r\n
Where to Recycle Plastic
\r\n\r\n
If your curbside trash service also offers recycling, having your recycling picked up at the end of your driveway is certainly the most convenient option.
\r\n\r\n
Better yet, if you live in California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Oregon, or Vermont, you can return plastic soda bottles to the place you purchased them to get your bottle deposit back.
\r\n\r\n
For those who live in areas where this isn't offered, however, there are plenty of other options available.
\r\n\r\n
Many communities have drop-off recycling programs or community dumpsters at different drop-off locations for recyclables.
\r\n\r\n
Visit Earth 911 to find recycling centers or programs near you. You can type in the specific type of material you'd like to recycle, as well as your zip code, and you'll be shown recycling solutions in your area.
\r\n\r\n
If you're a business or contractor that has large amounts of plastic to recycle that won't fit in your curbside collection, consider renting a dumpster for your recycling efforts.
\r\n\r\n
Or, if you have a lot of plastic to recycle but not enough to justify renting a dumpster, consider hiring a junk removal company to haul away your plastic waste for you.
\r\n\r\n
A junk removal company will be able to recycle all your plastic products without you having to lift a finger, and will donate salvageable items on your behalf.
Learn everything you need to know about plastic recycling to ensure that your recycling efforts don't go to waste.

Most homeowners and business owners know what it's like to have junk here and there that gets set aside to be handled later, only to have the pile grow and grow.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
When you get sick of looking at that pile of junk sitting in your garage, basement, or attic, two of the most affordable solutions are renting a dumpster or buying a bag dumpster.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
This guide is designed to help you determine whether buying a bag-style dumpster is the best deal for your specific debris disposal project or if renting a dumpster from a local provider is the better, more cost-effective option.
The Bagster bag itself costs roughly $30 regardless of where you live, and you can buy one online via Amazon or in-person at your local Home Depot, Lowe's, Target, etc. The upfront cost of a bag-style dumpster is inexpensive and consistent, but the cost of pick-up is more costly and can vary quite a bit depending on your location.
\r\n\r\n
Bagster pick-up costs range from $120-$300, making the total cost to use a Bagster $150-$350, or $50-$117 per cubic yard.
\r\n\r\n
Bagster pick-up costs are all-inclusive, meaning whether you fill your bag completely or halfway, the pick-up fee will be the same (as long as the load is 3,300 lbs or less).
\r\n\r\n
For most general household junk and random furniture, you can fill the entire 3 yard bag while remaining within the weight restrictions of the bag and the truck that picks it up.
\r\n\r\n
However, for heavy debris disposal, like concrete, brick, or soil, you are limited to filling the bag 1/3 of the way, or one cubic yard's worth of debris. Bagsters can be a costly disposal choice for heavy debris when you have more than a single cubic yard of it.
A 10 yard dumpster typically costs slightly more than a dumpster bag, but it holds more than 3x more debris and usually has less restrictions. With that said, it is possible to find 10 yard dumpsters that cost less than Bagsters in certain areas with certain providers.
\r\n\r\n
On average, 10 yard dumpsters cost $250-$450, or $25-$45 per cubic yard.
Like the prices for Bagster pick-up, dumpster rental prices fluctuate from one town to the next.
\r\n\r\n
The rental period included with a dumpster's price varies by hauler, but 7-14 days is common. If you need your dumpster for longer, this can be arranged with the dumpster rental company ahead of time. (They often charge a per-day or per-week fee on top of the normal cost.)
Comparing the cost of a Bagster and regular dumpster rental is not like comparing apples to apples because a 10 yard roll-off dumpster holds 3x more debris than the Bagster.
\r\n\r\n
The Bagster costs $150-$350 for 3 yards or less, making a $250-$450 10 yard dumpster rental much less expensive per cubic yard.
\r\n\r\n
For many parts of the country, a 10 yard roll-off is the smallest dumpster available to rent, so this comparison represents the real life options available to most people with relatively small-scale disposal needs.
\r\n\r\n
To truly compare the cost of a Bagster vs a dumpster rental in your area...
\r\n\r\n
1. Get quotes from local dumpster providers in your area.
\r\n\r\n
Hometown can help you find local dumpster rental services, read customer reviews, and reach out to as many providers as you'd like to compare each company's price.
\r\n\r\n
2. Find out how much Bagster collection is in your city.
As previously mentioned, the average cost of a Bagster per cubic yard is $50-$117 and the average cost of a 10 yard dumpster rental is $25-$45 per cubic yard, making traditional dumpster rental the better deal.
\r\n\r\n
Once you know exactly what the price is for dumpster rental and Bagster pick-up in your area, you'll be able to have a clear picture of which dumpster option is the best choice for you.

A standard dumpster rental period is seven days, although some dumpster companies offer shorter or longer rental periods. Most rental providers are willing to accommodate your schedule as best they can whether it’s short term or long term.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Dumpster rental period is an important topic to address, and in this guide, we'll also discuss other key aspects of dumpster placement worth considering.
A seven-day rental period is far and away the most common rental duration.
\r\n\r\n
Some rental providers specialize in short-term rentals of one to three days, while others offer rentals as long as 30 days or even longer.
\r\n\r\n
A good dumpster rental company will work within the timeline of your project to accommodate the needs of the cleanup.
\r\n\r\n
For quick cleanups, such as a shed cleanout, this may be a one-day rental.
\r\n\r\n
Other jobs, such as a disposing of interior renovation debris, may require that the dumpster remain onsite for a week or longer.
\r\n\r\n
There is no reason to have the dumpster remain in the driveway for longer than it needs to be, which is why it’s important to be accurate in describing your project with the rental provider to ensure the optimal rental period is determined before the container is dropped off.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
We suggest getting several quotes before booking the dumpster. Don’t base your decision on price alone, as the reputation of a company and how accommodating they can be to your project are key factors in finding the right company.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Local Rules and Regulations
\r\n\r\n
Some customers may be subject to local rules or regulations when it comes to how long a dumpster is allowed to remain on their property. (These rules are separate from a dumpster rental company's terms and services policy.)
\r\n\r\n
A common example of this would be a Homeowner’s Association (HOA) rule stating that roll-off dumpsters are only allowed on a property for more than a certain number of days, must remain out of public view, or other rules.
\r\n\r\n
If you are part of an HOA, check the rules regarding dumpster rental placement and duration prior to renting one.
\r\n\r\n
It’s also advisable to check with the public works department (or equivalent department) of your city to make sure all dumpster rental regulations are followed. Your dumpster rental company is a great source of information in this regard.
\r\n\r\n
When placing a dumpster in your driveway, it’s not required to get a dumpster permit.
\r\n\r\n
A dumpster permit is required when the container is placed in the public right of way, such as the side of a city street or across a sidewalk.
\r\n\r\n
In this case, the dumpster rental period will be dictated by the permit, so be sure to coordinate drop-off and pick-up of the container with your dumpster rental company to avoid any fees or penalties from the city.
The first form of prevention is driveway protection, which is usually accomplished by placing boards under the feet of the dumpster, providing softer contact with the concrete or asphalt driveway.
\r\n\r\n
The second form of prevention is minimizing the amount of time a dumpster sits on a driveway when temperatures are extreme.
\r\n\r\n
For example, in extreme heat, the weight of a dumpster can cause indentations on a driveway, especially if it is placed there for an extended period of time.
\r\n\r\n
Asphalt can soften in extreme heat, and heavy items, such as a loaded roll-off dumpster, can leave impressions or even cracks by the time it’s picked up.
\r\n\r\n
Consider placing your dumpster in the yard or other area and keep the rental period as short as possible if you have an asphalt driveway.
Since dumpster rental companies make money by moving dumpsters from customer to customer, it can be advantageous to them to keep the rental duration short.
\r\n\r\n
During the busy dumpster rental months (Spring to Fall), rental companies can experience a shortage of containers. Keeping dumpster rental periods short helps to control this issue.
\r\n\r\n
Of course, if you need a dumpster for a longer duration, a reputable dumpster provider will accommodate your request.
\r\n\r\n
Consider requesting a shorter term dumpster rental from your dumpster rental provider to see if that scores you a slight discount on the rental rate.
\r\n\r\n
For example, a 10 yard dumpster may cost $350 for a seven-day rental; ask the rental company if you could shorten the rental duration to three days.
\r\n\r\n
Again, if it’s during the busy dumpster season and the rental company is short on containers, they may offer a slight discount for the shorter rental period. The other benefit is that the dumpster is in your driveway for a shorter period of time.
The most common dumpster rental period is seven days, but this can vary by dumpster rental company. This is not the only consideration when placing a dumpster on a driveway. Read on to get the details.

Dumpster prices can vary significantly depending on a number of factors, but it can be helpful to know national averages to ensure you pay a fair price.
Dumpster size is a main cost factor because each size includes a certain amount of weight, called a dumpster weight allowance, that goes up with dumpster size.
The location of your dumpster rental and the local cost of living is another main cost factor.
\r\n\r\n
For example, if you live in an area where cost of living is high, your dumpster rental will almost certainly cost more than an area where the cost of living is lower.
\r\n\r\n
In the chart below, you can see the specific averages for your city, nearby towns, and how it compares to other areas across the country.

If you're planning a deep home cleaning, office cleanout, or other trash-producing project, dumpster rental is a great option!
\r\n\r\n
However, choosing a dumpster size that's too small or too big can end up costing you more than you need to pay.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
Choosing the right dumpster size is important, and understanding how many trash bags can fit inside a dumpster is hugely helpful in making sure you do just that.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Dumpster sizes are labelled by yardage. 10 yards, 15 yards, 20 yards, 30 yards, and 40 yards are some of the most common roll-off container sizes available for rent.
\r\n\r\n
This yardage indicates roughly how many cubic yards (3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft) the roll-off dumpster holds. However, exactly how much your dumpster can hold will depend on the type of debris and how much it weighs, too.
\r\n\r\n
1 cubic yard can hold roughly 6 garbage bags, which means...
\r\n\r\n
10 yard dumpsters can hold 55-65 garbage bags on average.
\r\n\r\n
15 yard dumpsters can hold roughly 82-98 garbage bags.
\r\n\r\n
20 yard dumpsters hold 110-130 garbage bags in most cases.
\r\n\r\n
30 yard dumpsters can typically hold 170-190 garbage bags.
\r\n\r\n
40 yard dumpsters can hold 230-250 garbage bags on average.
Choosing the right dumpster size is important, and understanding how many trash bags can fit inside a dumpster is hugely helpful in making sure you do just that. Learn how many garbage bags fit in the most common dumpster rental sizes so you don't get overcharged.
A dumpster rental permit, sometimes called a “temporary occupancy permit,” is required in cases where the dumpster is to be placed in the public right-of-way. This includes placing the container on the side of a city street or blocking the sidewalk. If the roll-off container will be placed in the driveway or on your private property, a permit is generally not needed. Check with your dumpster rental provider to be sure all permitting requirements are met.
Are there any tips to reduce the total weight of the dumpster load?
\r\n\r\n
The weight of debris inside a dumpster can add up quickly, especially when loading dense debris like dirt, concrete, or roofing shingles.
\r\n\r\n
Here are two tips that can help minimize the weight of a load:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\t
Tarp the dumpster when not in use, otherwise rainwater can drench the load and add a significant amount of weight. It’s possible you could end up paying overage fees if this puts you over the dumpster’s weight allowance.
\r\n\t
Some junk or debris may be valuable to others, such as salvaged bricks, working appliances, or reclaimed wood. Leave these things out of the dumpster and instead, sell or give them away locally.
\r\n\r\n\r\n
Always be aware of the weight allowance on your dumpster, and discuss this in detail with your dumpster provider if you plan to load dense debris, such as concrete or masonry.
