Dumpster Hacks: Save Space and Lower Costs
At 24 Hour Dumpster, we understand that getting the best use out of your dumpster is more than simply tossing in debris. Strategically placing and packing materials can greatly boost the space available, so you can fit more waste in one rental. Start by placing flat, heavy items rent a dumpster like furniture or drywall against the walls of the container to create a solid foundation. Lightweight items such as cardboard, insulation, and packaging can be stacked above, while bulky items should be broken down whenever possible. This technique keeps everything stable and prevents movement in transit while making full use of the dumpster space.
Material Sorting Tips
It’s also crucial to separate materials prior to putting them in the dumpster. Categorizing waste as construction, yard, or household items you maintain a cleaner worksite and make the disposal process smoother. This method also prevents overloading certain parts of the dumpster, which can be unsafe and make removal harder. We offer tips for sorting waste efficiently, enabling a smoother workflow and better project management.
Making Use of Vertical Space
A commonly missed tip in dumpster rentals is using vertical space. Stacking items carefully ensures that every cubic foot is utilized, especially with light or squishable items. Structuring boxes, bags, and small debris, gaps are minimized and extra space is created. We share advice for stacking efficiently, with tips on weight placement and preventing falls during delivery and collection.
