Comparing Dumpster Rental Companies

 You have decided it’s time to clean out the attic or do a kitchen remodel. You will have debris to dispose of and know the quickest way is to rent a roll-off dumpster, but you have never rented a dumpster before. Where to start? 

 

LOCAL, LOCAL, LOCAL

 

Finding the right dumpster company is your first step in accomplishing your project. Not all are the same. From location to dumpster size, dumpster companies can vary. First, is the dumpster company local and in your area? A local dumpster company can facilitate your project faster than an out-of-state broker. The local company will know the area and you will be able to discuss your project with them.

 

The advantages of a local company don’t stop there. A local company is not a 3rd party and will charge only for the dumpster rental service. A 3rd party, that is out-of-state, will charge extra for hiring a local dumpster company to fulfill the order. If you have never ordered a dumpster, your first question is to ask if they are local. When searching for dumpster rental companies online, check to see if their office is a true location. Many times, you will see a dumpster company on the road while driving. These are the companies to remember to call.

 

Dumpster Design

 

Just as dumpster companies are different, so are dumpster designs. You want to consider your project and site before ordering a dumpster. Will the dumpster need to be on a driveway? Will the contents be heavier material, such as concrete or shingles? Will there be bulky items, such as furniture?

 

Roll-off dumpsters come in many sizes AND shapes. Bin There Dump That dumpsters range from small to large and accommodate small concrete removal to home cleanouts. Our bins are shaped at 90 degree angles, utilizing every bit of the dumpster, while other dumpsters taper down, becoming smaller at the bottom. Especially with larger items, a 90 degree angle is best with optimizing space.

 

Dumpster Services

 

Finally, what services are offered to make the dumpster rental the quickest and safest for your project? In addition to a company helping you with your project by knowing the best size dumpster, you should be assured it will be there when you need it. Ask what is the availability of their dumpsters and what is the process when picking up. Do they offer same-day or next-day delivery?

 

Also, ask how they will protect your driveway. Bin There Dump That will provide COMPLETE board protection with every dumpster, at no extra charge, 100% of the time. These boards will make it to where the rollers do not make contact with the concrete and fully protect your investment. Avoid costly damage by hiring a dumpster company who cares about your home and/or business.

 

All dumpster companies are not the same.


Knowing what to ask or where to turn will help you with your first-time dumpster rental. Call Bin There Dump That and we will be happy to discuss your project needs.
