Dumpster Rentals: How You Can Save Hundreds Of Dollars If don’t do your junk removal research, you can potentially waste hundreds of d ollars on dumpster rentals. Why would you pay $500 if you can get the job done for just $250? Here are some tips that you should follow in order to save on du mpster rentals. Have you ever heard about dumpster rental Ottawa? Chances are, if you are wor king in the construction, commercial, or industrial industry in Canada, you wou ld know a lot about it. But for someone who is not connected to these industrie s, the idea of getting dumpster rentals is quite uncommon.


ď ŚWhile

many of us only depend on the services offered by t he city of Ottawa garbage collection department, some peo ple would need to contact a private waste management co mpany at least once or twice in their lifetime. The first time we needed a junk removal company was when we moved out from our ancestral house. The second was after the co nstruction of our new house and the last one was during th e time when we renovated a huge part of our old house.


Based on my past experiences, I can say that you can easily throw away a huge sum of money if you rent a dumpster without enough knowledge about the ins and outs of dumpster rentals. If you are planning to rent a dumpster, it is better that you spend a little time reading some blog posts about it to avoid paying more. After all, who would like to spend $500 if you can actually get the job done at only $250, right? So, here are the things that you need to consider.


What materials is your junk made of? An important factor to consider is the nature or the type of materials you intend to dispose of. While some garbage collection Ottawa companies allow a mixture of various types of materials, some may charge you more for materials that are heavier. The best way to find out how much you would need to pay for the garbage disposal is to consult the waste management company.


Ask about additional costs When I first rented a dumpster, I thought I just have to pay the $600 rental fee. But then I was surprized that I was also charged for the tipping fees. Before signing the contract, be sure to ask if there are any possible additional costs like late charges, overage charges, tipping fees, and other related fees and if they are already included in the quoted price or not.

The size matters Most of the waste management companies offer different sizes of dumpsters. One major mistake I made during the first time I rented a dumpster is getting the wrong size. I was not aware that there are different dumpster sizes and so I ended up getting the biggest size which was huge the amount of junk I had. Had I known about it from the start, I could have just rented a 10yard dumpster and saved a lot of money.


In order to know what size you need, you have to know exactly, or at least learn to estimate, the total amount of material you intend to dump. If you are carrying out medium sized cleanouts or perhaps doing small remodeling work, a 10-yard dumpster is enough. This size can carry about 10 cubic yards of debris. If you think the materials you intend to dump are enough to load 6, 9, or 12 pickup trucks, hire a 20, 30, or 40-yard dumpsters, respectively.
