4 Key Benefits of Renting Roll-Off Dumpsters

4 Key Benefits of Renting Roll-Off Dumpsters

Most cities, towns, and counties have regulations about disposing of construction waste, junk (especially electronics), and home remodeling materials like paint, wood, tile, and roofing. Compliance with rules about disposing of waste responsibly is one of four key benefits of renting roll-off dumpsters.

If you are contemplating cleaning out your shed or attic, remodeling your kitchen, or building an addition, you’ll almost certainly need an open-top dumpster rental to collect the waste, junk, and debris the job generates. This style of dumpster is easy to fill, and most rental companies will provide a cover for them to keep waste from blowing around before collection.

Environmental Responsibility

Collecting construction waste, junk, and debris rather than leaving it lying around is high on the list of the four key benefits of renting roll-off dumpsters.

Dumpster rental companies also take responsibility for ensuring that the materials in the dumpster are permitted in local landfills or waste transfer stations. These companies also take point on hauling the waste to the appropriate disposal location.

Ask your dumpster rental provider for a list of prohibited materials. Things like electronics, batteries, refrigerators, or dehumidifiers that contain refrigerants likely won’t be allowed or will be subject to an extra fee. Contact your local solid waste agency to determine how to dispose of these things safely.

Worker Safety

People working on your home or business will be safer if they have a place to dispose of debris that could otherwise create a tripping hazard, create unsafe work conditions, or threaten injury from things like nails, screws, and jagged waste lumber. Roll-off dumpsters help those performing the work maintain a cleaner, safer work environment.

Efficiency

The right-sized dumpster can accommodate all the waste generated in a single residential project. That means you will only need one trip to deliver the dumpster and one to collect it, making the whole waste disposal process more efficient and less costly.

Versatility

Unlike a recycling bin, roll-off dumpsters can contain mixed waste, including drywall, waste lumber, old kitchen cabinets, tile, roofing shingles, and even concrete. However, these items must still fall within the weight tolerances of the dumpster and be permitted by local regulations. Landscaping companies can even rent dumpsters to haul away old landscape fabric, fencing, and retaining wall materials to make room for a new landscape design.

Renting a roll-off dumpster will make your remodeling or clean-out job safer, more environmentally friendly, and more convenient. For roll-off dumpster rental services in the Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex, contact Delta Solid Waste Services. We’re here to help!
