Dumpsters come in a wide range of sizes and types.
\r\n\r\nYou’ve likely seen traditional roll-off dumpsters at construction or demolition sites.
\r\n\r\nDumpster trailers are a variation of a traditional roll-off that works great in many situations. These bins are also referred to as trailer dumpsters, rubber-wheeled dumpsters, and dump trailers.
\r\n\r\nThis guide will cover the differences between traditional roll-off dumpsters and trailer dumpsters, and go over the benefits of each, including when one container type might be a better choice than the other.
\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\nSometimes a traditional roll-off container just doesn’t suit the job or location.
\r\n
Maybe you’re nervous about a traditional dumpster causing damage to your driveway, or perhaps the dumpster needs to be placed on soft ground, like in a yard or sandy location. Rubber tires may appeal to you more than steel wheels.
\r\n\r\nOr maybe trailer dumpsters are the only available option in your area at the time you need it.
\r\n\r\nWe’ll go into a bit more detail on these and other reasons for renting a dumpster trailer below...
\r\n\r\nThe design of a dumpster trailer is pretty simple. The primary difference between a traditional roll-off dumpster and a trailer dumpster are its feet.
\r\n\r\n![\"steel](\"/sites/default/files/migrate_images/Steel-wheels-on-driveway-roll-off-dumpster.jpg\")
Many trailer dumpsters feature a dual design, meaning it has two tires on each side of the axle, which allows for heavier loads and stability.
\r\n\r\nBecause dumpster loads can oftentimes exceed 4 - 6 tons, this is an important feature for cleanups of heavy debris.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMost often, you’ll find trailer dumpsters ranging from 10 to 20 cubic yards.
\r\n
It’s not common to find trailer dumpsters with 30 yard, 40 yard, or larger loading capacities, although these large-capacity wheeled dumpsters do exist.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIn general, roll-off container prices are the same as trailer dumpster rates. For example, the national average cost to rent a 10 yard roll-off dumpster is around $300 per week, and there is little to no difference in the cost of a dumpster trailer; the price only goes up when you choose a larger bin.
\r\n\r\nIf price is a concern when choosing a dumpster, be sure to ask the rental provider if one dumpster costs less than the other and why.
\r\n\r\nThough both types of dumpsters—roll-offs and trailers—may have the same loading capacity, they could have different weight limitations placed on them or other rental terms. This varies by company, so make sure you discuss this with the contractors you speak to.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRubber-tired dumpsters are an excellent option in some situations but may not be suitable for others.
\r\n
Let’s start with the benefits of using a trailer dumpster vs. a roll-off style dumpster:

\r\n\r\n![\"Trailer](\"/sites/default/files/migrate_images/dumpster-trailer.jpg\")
\r\nFor small-to-medium sized cleanups where limited space is available for dumpster placement and/or the drop-off zone is on a delicate surface, like the lawn, a trailer dumpster is a great option.
\r\n\r\nAs stated previously, rubber-wheeled dumpsters are not available in all areas. So if you are determined to rent a dumpster trailer over a traditional roll-off, you’ll likely have to call several rental providers to find one that offers them.
\r\n\r\nRead through the company profile pages at Hometown Dumpster Rental to find the companies that offer trailer dumpsters in your area.
\r\nA great alternative to dumpster trailers are mini dumpsters, like the ones offered by Bin There Dump That and other companies.
\r\n\r\n![\"Bin](\"/sites/default/files/migrate_images/mini-dumpster.jpg\")
These are residential-friendly containers that range from 6 to 25 cubic yards in size, and boards are placed beneath the dumpster to greatly reduce the risk of driveway damage. The footprint of these specially-designed bins are about the size of a minivan, so they take up a relatively small amount of real estate in driveways.
There are several options out there to be aware of when hunting for a dumpster rental. From bag dumpsters to trailer dumpsters to full-size 40 yarders, and everything in between. It’s important to be aware of these options to ensure you’re getting the right one for your project.

\r\n\r\nUnless necessary for your safety, packing up and leaving in a rush might sound like an attractive idea but could end up causing more headaches down the line.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHaving a proper plan in place is a crucial step in moving out after a divorce to make the stress of the transition as minimal as possible.
\r\n
In this article, we'll go over our top 6 tips for making moving out after a divorce less stressful.
\r\n\r\n![\"6](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/6-tips-moving-divorce-info.jpg\")
\r\nIf you're going through a divorce, hopefully you've already hired a divorce attorney, regardless of how civil you and your former spouse intend on being.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nConsulting your lawyer before moving out so that they can inform the decisions you make during the process is the best thing you can do before making any rash decisions.
\r\n
It's a natural compulsion to want to move out as soon as the divorce paperwork has been filed, but as any good divorce attorney will tell you, moving out prematurely has the potential to negatively impact your financial assets and the custody of your children (if applicable) in certain states more than others.
\r\n\r\nTypically, the home is the largest asset a married couple has in their name. While it seems safe to assume that having your name on the deed and/or mortgage implies that this asset will be split evenly and there is no financial danger in leaving the home before the divorce is finalized; this is not always the case.
\r\n\r\nIf the person moving out of the home is the one who makes more money, they could be liable for still paying bills related to the home in addition to any new bills they acquire in their new residence.
\r\n\r\nThis alone can cause financial strain if you aren't adequately prepared.
\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to custody of the children, leaving the home prior to a custody agreement being established could end up hurting your rights in the future.
\r\n\r\nLeaving the home that the children live in makes it easier for the parent left in the home to gain more than 50/50 custody, and trying to get more time with your children could result in even more costly legal fees.
\r\n\r\nPrior to moving out, you should take inventory of all your personal and marital belongings.
\r\n\r\nWhen there are items in question, discuss it with your ex spouse.
\r\n\r\nIf the two of you don't agree, reference the court's decision on ownership if that has already taken place.
\r\n\r\nOtherwise, make note of these items and provide the list to your legal council so that it can be negotiated in court.
\r\n\r\nAfter it has been clearly established what belongs to you and what you can take from the home without contest, start separating your belongings.
\r\n\r\nGo through each room of the home and start packing your items so that you don't forget them and leave them in your spouse's possession.
\r\n\r\nThe idea is to make sure you get as much as possible—if not everything—in one go, so that it isn't necessary to make multiple visits back to the home after you move to grab X, Y, or Z.
\r\n\r\nRemoving all items at once is a helpful step in moving on.
\r\n\r\nMoving, whether it be for divorce or other reasons, can certainly be costly.
\r\n\r\nMany people still think you have to go to home improvement stores to buy packing boxes, which can add up.
\r\n\r\nCheck Facebook Marketplace to see if anyone is giving away their moving boxes.
\r\n\r\nMost people would rather let the next person to use their boxes rather than having to break down each box and recycle them.
\r\n\r\nHaving your friends and family help you move out after a divorce not only helps with the physical demands of moving, but it helps keep the mood light.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDivorce is a time in life when people rely heavily on their loved ones for advice, support, and companionship.
\r\n
Don't deny your friends' and families' help out of fear that it might make them feel awkward or uncomfortable.
\r\n\r\nMore often than not, they are eager to help and support you and allowing them to do so can even be a form of emotional support for them during this transition as well.
\r\n\r\nWhen you don't have friends or family to help, or if you're simply exhausted and don't have the time or desire to do the moving yourself, hiring help can be well worth the cost.
\r\n\r\nIf you're the only person moving out and your ex spouse is staying in the home, hiring movers to transport your belongings and furniture can make your move significantly easier and less time consuming.
\r\n\r\nIn the instance that you and your ex spouse are both moving out and selling the home, renting a dumpster is a great way to purge and get rid of old belongings that neither of you want to haul to your new home.
\r\n\r\nTemporary dumpster rentals are very affordable, especially if you and your ex split the cost.
\r\n\r\nYou could also ask neighbors if they would like to share costs so that they can get rid of unwanted items as well.
\r\n\r\nIf you have a lot to get rid of but not enough to justify renting a dumpster, hiring a junk removal company to haul away your unwanted items is a great solution.
\r\n\r\nHauling your junk to a donation center or to the dump yourself is an extra task during an already stressful and busy time. Junk removal companies can quickly come and clear your home of unwanted items so that you can focus on moving the stuff you do want to keep.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nReplacing old or broken tile is a great way to give your bathroom an instant facelift, increasing the value of your home and providing you with an aesthetically pleasing area to get ready every day.
\r\n
An important aspect of getting the highest ROI on your home improvement projects is choosing the disposal method for the debris and old material, like tile, that is the most cost efficient.
\r\n\r\nHometown can help you explore the debris disposal options available on the market and how to find the best price in your area.
\r\n\r\n![\"How](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/dispose-bathroom-tile-info_0.png\")
\r\nIf you only have a couple pieces of broken tile, it's likely not a problem to throw them in with your household trash.
\r\n\r\nIf you have more than a handful of tile or other debris to throw away, however, you could get hit with additional fees from your weekly trash service.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOld and broken tile in large amounts is considered construction waste, which is illegal to throw away with household trash in most areas.
\r\n
Construction waste tends to weigh a lot more than regular trash, and since landfill fees are configured based on waste, you can be sure that your trash service will catch on if a large amount of construction waste has been thrown in with your trash.
\r\n\r\nIf you have more than a couple tiles to throw out, continue reading for other disposal options.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMost landfills have an area where you can dump your construction waste and material, including bathroom tiles.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you have the strength to load and unload your tile (or other debris) and a vehicle that can accommodate the load, you can haul your construction waste to the proper disposal facility yourself.
\r\n
The fees you will be charged will be based on the weight of your material and where you live. Every landfill is different and sets their own pricing, so call ahead to check on cost and which types of material and debris are accepted at their facility.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nBag style dumpsters have been made popular by Waste Management with their 3 yard \"Bagster\".
\r\n\r\nDumpster bags can be purchased online or at home improvement stores, like Lowes or Home Depot, across the country for a low up-front cost of around $30, but cost an additional $150-$350 to be picked up and hauled away.
\r\n\r\nTiles and other bathroom remodeling debris can be put in most dumpster bags, but with a small capacity of only 3 yards and a weight limit of around 3,300 lbs, you'll need to make sure that a bag dumpster is large enough to contain not only the volume of your debris, but the weight as well.
\r\n\r\nIt's also important to make sure that your zip code is serviced by Waste Management, or whoever the bag dumpster service is, prior to buying the bag dumpster. Dumpster bag pickup services aren't available in all cities and are sometimes banned by certain Homeowners Associations.
\r\n\r\nWith an average total cost of $180-$380, it's typically more cost-effective to rent a 10 yard roll-off or trailer dumpster.
\r\n\r\nFor over 3x the capacity and an average cost of $250-$450, standard dumpster rentals are the preferred disposal choice for most homeowners and contractors.
\r\n\r\nRoll-off dumpsters can be placed in your driveway or on a city street with the proper permit and are typically rented for 5-7 days.
\r\n\r\n10 yard dumpsters are the perfect size to dispose of large construction debris, like tiling, concrete, flooring, and more.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOne of the most convenient features of a roll-off dumpster is their swinging side door(s) that allow you to walk in your debris rather than having to toss it over the side walls.
\r\n
Almost all dumpster rentals have a weight allowance, so be sure to understand the fine print and details of your rental agreement so that you can avoid paying more than your initial dumpster quote.
\r\n\r\nWe recommend getting at least 2-3 different dumpster rental quotes from local providers to ensure you get the best price, customer service, and the availability you require.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe primary difference between a traditional roll-off dumpster and a trailer dumpster are its feet.
\r\n\r\nRoll-off dumpsters have steel feet (and sometimes wheels), while trailer dumpsters sit on top of rubber wheels that make moving and navigating the dumpster much easier.
\r\n\r\nIf you have a vehicle with a hitch and the need to be able to move your dumpster throughout the duration of your rental period, a trailer dumpster is the perfect alternative to a roll-off container that can only be moved with a special commercial vehicle.
\r\n\r\nJust like roll-off containers, trailer dumpsters come in a variety of sizes, with the most popular being 10 yard, 12 yard, and 15 yard sizes.
\r\n\r\nThese types of containers are ideal for single room remodeling or demolition projects, like bathrooms.
\r\n\r\nAs with traditional roll-off dumpsters, we recommend getting multiple quotes when searching for a trailer dumpster to rent in your area.
\r\n\r\nHometown helps make requesting multiple dumpster rental quotes simple and easy.
\r\n\r\nSearch a variety of licensed and insured dumpster rental companies that service your zip code.
\r\n\r\nThen, read more about each company, read reviews from verified real customers, and request as many quotes as you'd like - all free of charge!
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you don't have the strength, assistance, time, or desire to load your bathroom tile or debris into a dumpster, junk removal services are likely your best option.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to getting rid of unwanted junk or debris, getting it done quickly is often the goal, and there's no faster way to get rid of unwanted material than with junk removal pros.
\r\n
The key to a successful, reputable junk removal company is their ability to complete each job as quickly as possible, and most debris removal jobs can be completed in an hour or less.
\r\n\r\nDue to their all-inclusive nature, junk removal services tend to cost more than dumpster rental if there are 7 cubic yards or more of debris to get rid of.
\r\n\r\nThat said, the convenience and speed of junk removal services make them a popular preference among those with busy schedules or limited strength.
\r\n\r\nJust like with dumpster rental, Hometown can help you find locally-owned junk removal companies near you and request free quotes from as many providers as you'd like to price compare.

However, the most common wastes prohibited from being disposed of in dumpsters include:
\r\n\r\nThese items should be taken to local HHW processing facilities or collected during HHW collection events. E-wastes can be recycled at most major electronics stores, including Best Buy and Staples. Locate a scrap tire yard in your area to dispose of used tires, or take them to a tire store for proper recycling.
\r\n\r\nThe cost of renting a dumpster can range from $250 up to $750 or more.

The wide variability in pricing is influenced primarily by the following factors:
