What’s the best way to get rid of _______? Not all wastes are destined for the trash can. If you have large amounts of debris or you have items that are banned by your local waste hauler, you need to find the right disposal option. In this debris removal guide, we’ll take a look at various types of waste, debris, and junk as well as the best ways to dispose of them.
Recycling or reusing debris is the best possible option because it's great for the environment and your wallet. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Americans only recycle about 1/4 of a potential 267.8 million tons each year. Always recycle, reuse, or donate materials when you can, but if this is not an option, it's time to start considering the next disposal options.
Dumpsters come in a wide range of sizes, from 3 cubic yard dumpster bags to full-size 40 cubic yard construction dumpsters. Dumpsters are an ideal solution for remodeling projects, house cleanouts, demolition, yard waste disposal, roofing, construction, and recycling in bulk. Ranging in cost from $250-$550 on average, dumpsters are an affordable way to get rid of all types of debris. Only place approved items in your dumpster, and avoid putting any prohibited or hazardous items inside, or you can expect to be charged an additional fee.
Junk removal is a great disposal option for household junk, large pieces of furniture, and other tough-to-dispose-of or bulky waste. Junk removal is the most convenient option, as they handle the removal and disposal for you, whether it be hauling the junk to a local donation center, recycling it, or hauling it to the nearest landfill as a last resort. Due to the all-inclusive level of service, junk removal can become costly for larger cleanups, so it’s something to consider when choosing whether you should rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal service.
If you have a truck and/or trailer, hauling the debris yourself to a local landfill may be an option. The average cost to haul waste yourself is less than the average cost to rent a roll-off dumpster, but the trade-off is it's less convenient and takes longer. The time it takes you to drive and drop off the debris at the nearest landfill can be substantial depending on your location. Also, if you need to dispose of hazardous materials, it will require a permit to haul, so be sure to research the laws in your area regarding the types of waste you are allowed to haul and the types of debris accepted at local landfills. (Some accept only C&D debris and not household trash). Household hazardous waste (HHW) facilities safely process and recycle potentially toxic wastes, such as e-waste, household cleaners, paint, chemicals, medicines, and liquids. Some communities host HHW events on an annual or biannual basis, or you can find your nearest HHW drop-off location at Earth911.com.
The waste and junk disposal methods discussed above are not always an option for everyone in every situation. Below, we'll discuss the most common types of waste and debris and the ideal ways to dispose of each type properly.
Examples: household garbage, old furniture, broken toys, packaging materials
\r\n\r\n
This category of waste includes anything you’d typically put in your waste bin. Generally, this category of waste is taken care of via your waste hauler’s curbside collection service. However, there are multiple situations that require additional means, like hoarding situations, foreclosure cleanups, moving, and special events that generate a lot of trash. When you have more than your curbside roll cart can handle, a roll-off container works great for bulk amounts of household trash.
\r\n\r\n
Alternatively, hiring a junk removal company to pick up the trash for you is a convenient disposal method, too, and it may be a more cost-effective option for smaller jobs (less than a few cubic yards of waste). You could also haul these wastes to the landfill yourself if you live within close proximity of one. Disposal of appliances containing Freon, paints, liquids, lead-acid batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, and other household hazardous wastes (HHWs) require special handling. These wastes shouldn’t be mixed in with your household garbage. Contact your city’s solid waste department to find the nearest HHW facility, or visit the city’s website for more information.
Residential and commercial construction or demolition projects typically require the use of a dumpster, though hiring a junk removal company or driving the debris to the landfill yourself may be an option if there is a relatively small amount of debris. Some U.S. cities require C&D debris to be dropped off at dedicated construction and demolition landfill facilities where it is separated and recycled.
\r\n\r\n
Concrete
\r\n\r\n
Concrete and asphalt are both very heavy, dense debris that are best disposed of in a roll-off dumpster. Most dumpster rental companies require concrete to be separated from other wastes, and it must be \"clean loaded\" in a smaller container, such as a 10 yard bin, to ensure it does not become too heavy of a load for the roll-off truck to handle.
Wood has a potential to be reused if salvaged properly. Reclaiming wood and selling or donating it is one way to cut down on disposal costs for a project.
\r\n\r\n
Carpeting
\r\n\r\n
A junk removal company offers the most convenient disposal solution for carpet disposal. Renting a dumpster or having your waste hauler pick it up are also valid options. Many waste haulers require the carpeting to be cut down to a specified length, like 4 ft. lengths, so that may add to the inconvenience of going this route.
\r\n\r\n
Flooring
\r\n\r\n
Flooring material is salvageable in many cases. This would, again, help cut down on disposal costs. If reclaiming the wood isn’t an option, other cost-effective solutions include renting a roll-off or hiring a junk removal company to pick it up.
\r\n\r\n
Siding
\r\n\r\n
Certain types of siding, such as cedar, are highly desirable, and people will often take it off your hands. Simply posting a listing on Craigslist is an easy way to accomplish getting rid of cedar or wood siding while also cutting down on disposal costs. Vinyl siding is typically disposed of in a dumpster or picked up by a junk removal company. A dumpster is generally the more cost-effective option for a whole-house siding replacement project.
Much of this material can be reclaimed. Other materials can be disposed of in a roll-off container or by a junk removal service. Most waste haulers do not accept renovation debris via curbside service, though some will pick it up for an additional fee.
\r\n\r\n
Metals
\r\n\r\n
Bulk amounts of steel, aluminum, copper, and other metals should be recycled, as metal is a valuable commodity. You can eliminate disposal costs and make a few bucks by dropping off metal scraps at a local scrap yard. If you cannot haul the metals yourself, some metal recyclers may be able to pick it up on-site, or you can post an ad on Craigslist for free pick-up.
Examples: tree limbs, bush trimmings, grass clippings
\r\n\r\n
Being that it’s an organic waste, yard debris is best disposed of by composting, but dumpsters and junk removal companies are good options, too, as dumpster companies and junk removal service providers will drop off the yard wastes at the proper facility.
\r\n\r\n
Note: Most waste haulers don’t allow yard debris mixed in with general waste.
\r\n\r\n
Heavy yard wastes, like downed trees/logs, are best handled by professionals who have the right equipment to safely load and haul away such debris. Most junk removal companies have the right equipment to take on this type of project.
\r\n\r\n
Consider starting a compost pile if you have the space to do so. Composting is an easy and inexpensive disposal option for yard debris, plus it produces nutrient-rich compost ideal for farming, landscaping, and flower gardens.
\r\n\r\n
Be sure you know the laws regarding yard waste disposal in your area. Some cities have made yard debris composting mandatory. In this case, you’d need to have the debris dropped off at the proper composting facility. It may not be accepted at the municipal landfill, so be sure to do your due diligence. Search your city’s solid waste authority website or give them a call to learn more.
Hiring a junk removal company for removal of one or several appliances is a quick and cost-effective method of removal. Junk haulers charge a minimum fee of anywhere from $50 to $125, so expect to be charged at least that amount for the appliance removal.
\r\n\r\n
A dumpster works well for disposal of a whole home's worth of appliances, such as during a major renovation project or demolition. Choose a bigger dumpster than you think you need. Why? Most roll-off containers have rounded bottoms, while most appliances are bulky and square. So while you may have 10 cubic yards worth of appliances (10 kitchen stoves equals approximately 10 cubic yards), the appliances will consume greater than 10 cubic yards worth of space inside the dumpster. In this example, a 20 yard bin may be the better choice.
\r\n\r\n
Save on disposal costs by donating working appliances to local charitable organizations, such as Habitat for Humanity. Some locations may even pick them up for free, so be sure to ask! Alternatively, you can sell appliances that are still in good shape via Craigslist, Facebook, or by other means.
\r\n\r\n
Household Hazardous Wastes (HHWs)
\r\n\r\n
Examples: lead-acid batteries, fluorescent bulbs, household cleaners, motor oil, chemicals
\r\n\r\n
This class of wastes should never be mixed in with the general waste stream, so avoid putting household hazardous wastes in the waste bin, dumpsters, burning it, burying it, or using any other unsafe disposal method. Doing so can taint drinking water, harm local wildlife, produce unsafe crops at local farms, and pollute the air. Dispose of HHWs by dropping them off at a local HHW processing facility. Some communities also host annual or biannual HHW pickup events where you can drop off a wide range of hazardous wastes found in your home.
\r\n\r\n
Junk removal companies and some dumpster rental providers will accept HHWs if you discuss it beforehand. There may or may not be additional fees for handling/hauling of hazardous materials—it depends upon the company and local laws governing HHW handling. Find a household hazardous waste recycler near you.
\r\n\r\n
Here’s a quick breakdown of common types of HHWs:
\r\n\r\n
Batteries
\r\n\r\n
Common A, AA, AAA, D, and similar dry-cell batteries can be thrown away with your trash. However, car batteries and other larger batteries need to be properly recycled.
\r\n\r\n
Liquids
\r\n\r\n
This includes motor oil, antifreeze, household cleaners, fuel, and other toxic/flammable liquids. Motor oil can be safely dropped off for recycling at a local oil change facility or car dealership that provides service. Other liquids can usually be dropped off at an HHW facility or cleanup event.
\r\n\r\n
Light Bulbs
\r\n\r\n
Fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) shouldn’t be mixed in with household trash. They contain small amounts of mercury. Drop these off at the nearest recycling facility that accepts CFLs. Some retailers, such as Lowe's and IKEA, also accept CFLs for proper recycling. Learn more about CFL recycling.
\r\n\r\n
Medicines
\r\n\r\n
Dispose of medications at your local cleanup event or HHW processing facility.
\r\n\r\n
If you do not have access to this type of event or facility, you can dispose of medicines in the following manner:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\t
Mix medicines with dirt, kitty litter, or coffee grounds.
\r\n\t
Place in a plastic Ziploc bag and seal it.
\r\n\t
Throw the bag in your trash receptacle.
\r\n\t
Remove prescription labels and/or scratch out any personal information on the bottle to protect your privacy. Throw bottle(s) away.
\r\n\r\n\r\n
Explosives
\r\n\r\n
Highly-flammable, combustible, and explosive wastes can be dangerous when mixed in with the general waste stream. Local laws dictate the proper way to dispose of wastes, like fuel, oil, fireworks, lighter fluid, matches, and others.
\r\n\r\n
Paint
\r\n\r\n
Wet paint must be dried before throwing it away. You can mix bulk amounts of paint with sand or similar material to dry it quickly. You can safely throw empty, dry paint cans into the trash or a rented dumpster. The one exception is if the paint is very old and may contain lead. It is unlikely this will be an issue considering lead paint was banned in 1978 (although lead-based paint was still sold for several years after that). If it’s a very old can of paint you need to dispose of, play it safe and bring it to a local recycling facility for proper disposal.
\r\n\r\n
Recyclables
\r\n\r\n
Examples: paper, cardboard, plastics, metal
\r\n\r\n
Despite the slight downturn in recycling noted in recent history, access to recycling services is pretty extensive these days. For bulk amounts of recyclables, you have several options. Renting a dumpster is a quick and easy option for DIYers. Clean load it with recyclable materials only and the rental company may offer a discount. Junk removal is usually more expensive than renting a dumpster but is also much more convenient. Dropping recyclables off at a recycling center is the most cost-effective method for handling a low volume of recyclables. Posting an ad on Craigslist or Freecycle is another cheap and convenient way to get rid of recyclables. The potential downsides include having to wait potentially days or weeks (if ever) before finding someone to pick it up, and this method is generally limited to working well for valuable recyclables, such as metals.
\r\n\r\n
Bring scrap metals, like copper pipes, steel, brass fittings, iron, junk cars, etc., to a local metal scrap yard to get paid for your scraps. Some recycling facilities will even purchase bulk amounts of paper, cardboard, and plastics. For example, Padnos is a full-service recycler serving most of the State of Michigan and will purchase most types of recyclables (in bulk amounts).
\r\n\r\n
Food Scraps and Organic Waste
\r\n\r\n
Food and organic scraps can be composted. Not all food scraps are ideal for composting, however. Wastes that are excellent compost materials include:
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\t
Egg shells
\r\n\t
Fruit and vegetable scraps
\r\n\t
Coffee grounds and filters
\r\n\t
Clean paper and newspaper
\r\n\t
Vacuum residuals
\r\n\t
Hair and nail clippings
\r\n\t
Dirt, soil, grass clippings, dead leaves, and small tree limbs
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
See a complete list of compostable items and learn how to get started. Do not compost meats, cheeses/dairy, plastics, fats, dirty paper/paper towels, breads, dog/cat wastes (grass-eating animal wastes are ok), or processed foods. If you have a bulk amount of food or organic waste to dispose of, discuss solutions with your waste hauler or a dumpster rental provider near you.
Tires are banned for disposal in landfills in the majority of states within the United States. Instead, they can be recycled or reused. Bring old automobile tires to a tire retailer for recycling. There may be a small fee involved in some cases. Alternatively, you can sell or give away tires that still have some tread left. Recyclers, artists, and companies that work with rubber may also take them off your hands for free. Post an ad on Craigslist, Facebook, or Freecycle.org to get started. Junk removal companies also haul away tires, and this is a cost-effective and convenient option if you have a large number of tires to offload.
Found on drywall, paint, roofing materials, and other building materials. These toxic substances are more prevalent in older homes or commercial buildings. Before starting a renovation, demolition, or construction project in an older home, be sure to have it tested for asbestos, mold, and lead paint.
\r\n\r\n
Asbestos
\r\n\r\n
When left alone, asbestos isn’t harmful. But once asbestos fibers are released into the air, they become a danger. Renovation and demolition is when asbestos is most likely to be released into the air. Exposure can lead to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and lung problems.
Avoid dangerous mold by controlling moisture inside your home, repairing leaks, and cleaning up after natural disasters. Mold can often hide behind walls. If you spot a large area of it, it’s best to leave the removal to the professionals. In terms of disposal, a mold removal specialist will properly discard of the materials for you. Otherwise, you can dispose of small quantities of moldy materials in a dumpster if the debris is bagged or wrapped in plastic.
How you dispose of lead paint debris depends upon how much of it is present and what your state’s laws are regarding disposal. If a sample of the debris contains less than 100 milligrams of lead per kilogram, you can typically dispose of it like regular municipal waste. If concentrations of lead are greater than that benchmark, special disposal procedures must be followed. It’s best to hire a lead paint abatement specialist to test for lead paint and to dispose of it if necessary. To summarize, asbestos materials always require special disposal procedures, while mold and lead paint tainted debris can be disposed of the same way you would any other C&D debris as long as the levels are low.
\r\n\r\n
Rent a dumpster for larger cleanups, or hire a junk hauler to come pick up smaller amounts of debris. Always inform the rental company or junk removal provider that the debris is tainted.
\r\n\r\n
Automobile Fluids and Chemicals
\r\n\r\n
Examples: motor oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid, cleaners, brake fluid
\r\n\r\n
Most chemicals and liquids are required to be disposed of at a licensed household hazardous waste (HHW) facility. Cities that do not have such a facility will typically hold HHW collection events once or twice per year where you can drop off chemicals and other hazardous wastes. Used motor oil can be brought to an oil change facility or auto parts store for proper recycling. Call ahead just to be sure.
\r\n\r\n
Never dispose of auto fluids or chemicals in the trashcan or a dumpster. Refer to Earth911 for more information and to find a local automotive fluids recycler near you.
\r\n\r\n
Electronics (E-waste)
\r\n\r\n
Examples: computers, TVs, VCRs, DVD players, tablets, phones, other electronic devices
\r\n\r\n
Electronic waste, or e-waste, is growing in the U.S., and proper disposal of this debris is often misunderstood. Most e-waste is not allowed in the general waste stream; it should be properly recycled to avoid heavy metal contamination and other potential hazards. Some states, including California and New York, have banned disposal of e-waste in landfills or waste-to-energy (WTE) facilities. Instead of throwing e-waste in the trash, it should go to the proper recycling facility.

Renting a trash bin (aka dumpster rental) is an easy process, but there are a few key things to keep in mind to ensure a smooth and hassle-free process.
However, dumpster rental companies simplify this problem by recommending a container size based on the project and the amount of waste, junk, or debris you’re disposing of.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
When calling a dumpster rental company for information or a quote, be sure to have a description of your project ready.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
For a kitchen demolition example, tell the rental provider the project (kitchen demo) and number of cabinets, approximate size and type of countertop, flooring, appliances, and other details.
\r\n\r\n
The more details you can give them, the more accurate the dumpster rental company can be in recommending the right dumpster for the job.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Dumpster Costs
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The cost of renting a dumpster will vary based on your location, size of the dumpster, type of debris, and other factors.
\r\n\r\n
Based on data collected by HometownDumpsterRental.com, the national average cost to rent a dumpster is as follows:
Your dumpster rental rate may vary from the above figures, as these are national averages.
\r\n\r\n
We suggest getting several dumpster quotes before booking a dumpster. Don’t base your decision on price alone, as the reputation of a company should be a key factor in choosing a reliable waste hauler.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Step-by-Step Dumpster Rental Process
\r\n\r\n
Now that you have a thorough understanding of dumpster costs and sizes, here is a step-by-step look at the basic dumpster rental process.
\r\n\r\n
1. Analyze the project.
\r\n\r\n
Gather as many details as possible about your project, such as debris type, size of the job, type of project (e.g., shed demolition), and project timeline details.
Each rental company you speak to will be able to suggest the dumpster size they believe is best for your project, and each company may have slightly different weight allowances and pricing for the same dumpster size.
Fill up the dumpster with the project waste, junk, or debris.Be sure to follow the rules regarding loading the dumpster too high and/or loading prohibited items (e.g., hazardous materials).
If you haven’t already, pay for the dumpster rental. Beyond the base rate, other potential charges include overage fees. This is an additional fee that is only charged if you exceed the dumpster’s weight allowance.
\r\n\r\n
7. Leave an online review.
\r\n\r\n
Help other customers by leaving an online review that describes your experience with the dumpster company, good or bad.
Renting a dumpster for a renovation, construction, demolition, or cleanout project is an easy process in general. Find out the basic dumpster rental process to help make renting a dumpster a quick and hassle-free experience.

Renting a dumpster is a convenient solution for all types of projects, and they come in sizes that fit in most driveways. Home renovations, decluttering, demolition, construction, landscaping—all of these projects can be messy, and streamlining the debris disposal with a temporary dumpster is an ideal option.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
Having a temporary dumpster conveniently placed in your driveway can make your home project more manageable and efficient.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
In this guide, we're breaking down the ins and outs of dumpster rental to help you navigate the process and find the right driveway dumpster near you for your project.
The first step to getting a dumpster dropped off at your driveway is determining which dumpster size best fits your project needs.
\r\n\r\n
Popular Dumpster Sizes for Driveways
\r\n\r\n
Dumpsters come in various sizes measured in cubic yards. The most common dumpster sizes range from 10 to 40 cubic yards, but the most driveway-friendly dumpsters are 10-20 cubic yards. Dumpsters also come with included weight limits to consider, especially when loading heavy debris, like concrete or dirt.
\r\n\r\n
Each dumpster company prices their dumpsters differently, including different weight limits, rental periods, and other restrictions in their price, so you'll want to consider all of this when choosing the dumpster size that's right for you. It's recommended that you get multiple dumpster rental quotes to compare pricing and services.
Knowing what dumpster sizes are available to you, it's time to get a rough idea of what you'll need to throw in the dumpster.
\r\n\r\n
If you have a rough idea of how many cubic yards of junk or debris you'll have to put in the dumpster, you'll know which size is best for your needs. This may seem tricky, and the good news is that dumpster rental companies are experienced in helping customers choose the best size for them.
\r\n\r\n
To give you a general idea, here are some popular projects and the dumpster sizes that typically work best for them...

Dumpster Permits Typically Aren't Required
\r\n\r\n
Placing a dumpster in a driveway doesn't usually require a permit. However, it's worth checking if your city or homeowner's association requires a permit for placing a dumpster in your driveway. If needed, you'll need to get the permit before the dumpster is dropped off. In most cases, a qualified and properly licensed and insured dumpster rental company will handle the permitting process for you. If a company doesn't get the necessary permits, it could be a sign that they don't have the necessary credentials.
Once you have an idea of your project's scope and dumpster needs, it's time to start looking for the right dumpster rental service.
\r\n\r\n
Typically, this means calling around to different local companies to get quotes, but Hometown has made this process easy for you. Instead of scouring the internet and calling around, you can instead fill out our quote request form and get quotes from three different local companies with the click of a button. From there, they'll reach out to you to provide a quote and discuss their services more. Then you're free to book with whichever company has the best price and the best services for your project needs.
\r\n\r\n
Be on the lookout for local dumpster rental companies with positive reviews and a good reputation for reliability and customer service.
Once you coordinate a convenient delivery time with the dumpster rental company you choose, it's time to prepare for dumpster delivery.
\r\n\r\n
Getting ready for dumpster drop-off is an important step to renting a driveway dumpster. The first step to doing so is providing clear instructions to the company you're renting from so they know where you want the dumpster placed in your driveway. This could be done in advance over the phone, but being there in person for the delivery is ideal, as you can direct the driver to the exact spot in your driveway where you want the dumpster placed.

Ensure there's enough space for the dumpster and for easy access for drop-off and pick-up, too. This involves removing any vehicles, bikes, or other obstacles from the area where the dumpster will be or its path of drop-off/pick-up.
\r\n\r\n
It's also important to protect your driveway from dumpster damage. In many cases, the dumpster rental company will place wooden planks or plywood underneath the feet of the dumpster to protect the driveway from scratches or damage. Double check this when speaking to different dumpster rental companies to know whether or not they intend to take steps to protect your driveway.
Once the dumpster has been dropped off, it's time to load it up. When handling debris, junk, and trash, it's important to wear the necessary safety gear, like gloves, sturdy shoes, and protective eyewear to avoid injuries.
\r\n\r\n
We recommend loading the bigger, heavier items into the dumpster first and distributing the weight as evenly within the dumpster as you can. This will maximize space and ensure safe transportation of the dumpster.
\r\n\r\n
Schedule Pickup and Removal
\r\n\r\n
After loading the dumpster, reach out to the dumpster rental company to let them know you're ready to have your dumpster picked up. Many companies will schedule a pick-up time in advance when booking the dumpster, so you may not necessarily need to call them, but some wait for your call, so clarify this with the companies you speak to.
\r\n\r\n
Before pick-up, be sure to clear the area around the dumpster and leading to and from the dumpster so that the driver can easily access it for removal.
\r\n\r\n
Finalize Payment
\r\n\r\n
Once your dumpster has been hauled away and dumped at the landfill, you'll receive a final invoice if you incurred any additional fees. For example, if you fill your dumpster over the fill line, if you add too much weight to the dumpster, or if you put something in the dumpster that is prohibited, you'll likely be charged more than the rate you were initially quoted. Make this payment as per the rental company's terms (e.g., credit card, check).
How much does it cost to rent a 10 yard container?
\r\n\r\n
Depending on where you live, it can run from as little as $250 for a 7-day rental, up to as much as $550 or more in some cases.
\r\n\r\n
Sometimes the dumpster rental company will quote you an all-inclusive price, while other times there are possible additional fees involved. A few of these include:
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\t
Overage charges for going over the container’s weight limit (very common)
\r\n\t
A per-day charge for extending the duration of the rental period (very common)
\r\n\t
A surcharge for disposal of certain debris that costs more to dispose of (somewhat common)
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
The most accurate way to get pricing information for renting a 10 yard bin is to call any of the rental providers at the Hometown website and request a free quote.
Box container dimensions vary by company. A typical 10 yard roll-off measures approximately 12 ft L x 8 ft W x 4 ft H.
\r\n\r\n
However, some rental companies offer “lowboys” that measure approximately 20 ft long and have much lower sides at 2 to 3 feet, making it ideal for side loading heavy debris (e.g. concrete).
\r\n\r\n
Be sure to figure in the space needed to swing open the back door on the dumpster (if equipped) when clearing a spot on your property for the dumpster to be placed. These doors may need as much as 8 ft of clearance to open all the way – discuss these clearance issues with your dumpster rental provider.
