If this is your first time renting a dumpster, here’s what you need to know. Start by estimating how much debris you’ll have so you can choose the right size. Next, plan where the dumpster will be placed — make sure there’s enough room for delivery and pickup. Avoid placing it under power lines or in tight alleyways. Once your dumpster arrives, don’t overfill it or throw in restricted items. Finally, be aware of your rental period and call for pickup on time. These simple tips will make your first experience easy and efficient.
