Different projects may require a lot of trash removal. After all, summer is when many people are moving, and they may have more things to discard. It's also the time for many festivals that involve a lot of eating and drinking. Even if you already have the ideal dumpster rental service in mind, you still have to choose the right container type. Here are tips for choosing the right-sized dumpster for your project.

Consider Waste Size

Before you decide on container size, be realistic about how much waste you must remove. According to HomeAdvisor, 40-yard dumpsters are best for full-house cleanouts, large-scale home remodeling projects, and roof replacements. However, in our experience, if you're simply cleaning out one room, you could probably use a 10-yard one.

Measure the Space You Have

Once a dumpster rental service delivers the containers, you need enough space to fit them. You also want them in a location that's easy to access. If you get the largest containers, have enough space to comfortably place them for the duration of your project. You don’t want them blocking paths or creating a safety hazard. In our experience, dumpster sizes are often measured in yards, so you should measure your space in yards to get a good idea of how much you can fit.

Assess How Many People Will Use It

Will you be the only one using your dumpster container? If so, you have a better idea of how much trash you must contain. However, if you're having an outdoor event or doing a full building cleanup, many people will have access to the containers. Therefore, you may need to get several of them at the largest size possible. You may also need to place them at different points so different people can access them.

Being able to rent a dumpster for the duration of your project is an invaluable way to ensure you meet sanitation standards and can get rid of all the trash you need.
