1.
Make Space
You
need to plan where you will place your dumpster and clear a spot
before the dumpster arrives.
Make
sure you put enough thought into dumpster placement. Choose a central
location so you can quickly dispose of junk from different rooms and
locations.
2.
Set Goals
Before
your dumpster arrives, you should have a clear idea of what you want
and need to accomplish during the rental period.
Plan
your schedule and set some deadlines for yourself for what portion of
the job you want to finish by that time. This way, you'll be most
likely to complete all the envisioned work before you're due to
return your rental.
3.
Plan Your Budget
You'll
need to work the dumpster rental expenses into your overall budget
for the project at hand. A dumpster rental can be a significant
expense if you need the dumpster for an extended period of time, so
make sure you budget for it.
4.
Look Into Recycling
You
may be able to save money or even make money if you look into which
items you can possibly recycle before your dumpster arrives. Not only
should you consider recycling, but you should also look into the
possibility of selling scrap metal.
You
need to pay to dispose of items in a dumpster, but you can minimize
the amount of garbage you put into your dumpster by looking into less
expensive means of disposing of recyclable items.
5.
Be Aware of Weights and Capacities
A
dumpster will typically have a weight capacity. You could face fines
and other consequences if you exceed the weight capacity of a
dumpster.
Exceeding
a dumpster's weight capacity could make picking up the dumpster
difficult or dangerous for the rental provider once you finish using
the dumpster. You may be required to empty an overfilled dumpster,
and this will create added work for you that will delay the
completion of your project.
6.
Familiarize Yourself with Rules
The
dumpster rental company has rules about what you can and can't
dispose of in a dumpster. Rentals services usually prohibit any item
that is toxic or potentially hazardous from regular dumpster
disposal.
If
you dispose of items like batteries, paints, solvents, and cleaning
chemicals, you will have to dispose of these items as hazardous
waste. Disposing of toxic waste in regular waste disposal can subject
your company to fees and penalties.
Research
the items that you'll dispose of and find an appropriate means of
disposing of regulated waste items before your dumpster rental
arrives. Discuss your waste disposal needs in detail with the
dumpster rental provider for an expert consultation to make sure you
won't violate any regulations.
7.
Know When Pickup Will Be
You
probably want to have a pickup date already scheduled before your
dumpster arrives. This way, you can focus the time when you have the
dumpster on getting work done rather than worrying about scheduling a
pickup time.
