Demolishing or tearing out rooms before renovating means you are going to have to figure out what to do with all of the waste from the project. The best solution is roll off container dumpster rental. You typically see roll offs containers near construction sites, but how can a regular homeowner go about roll off container dumpster rental? Here are some helpful tips:
Roll Off Container Dumpster Rental Tips
- Know the Terminology – Since roll off container companies usually deal with contractors, they may get impatient with a clueless homeowner who doesn’t know the ins and outs of renting a roll off container. “Container” and “roll off” are both correct terms for these containers, while “dumpster” isn’t so much. Roll off containers are rented in standard cubic yard sizes that vary usually from 10-40.
- Check with the local laws if it’s going to be in the street – Your local parking enforcement office or building permit office can give you information about permits needed if you’re putting the roll off container on the street. If you have room to place it on your own property, you won’t have these worries. If you live on a street with a neighborhood association, it is almost certain that the provisions of the homeowner’s association contract do not allow for a roll off container. Failure to checking the legality can lead to fines and a headache in general
- Clear Space in Front of the Roll Off Container – Whether the roll off container is going on the street or your property, the truck dropping off and picking up the container needs room to maneuver. It stinks getting a call from the truck driver because he can’t back in. Usually, the roll off container just won’t get picked up. This can delay the process several days and cost you extra money.
- Rent the Right Size Roll Off Container for the Job – You will almost always need a roll off container one size bigger than you think you need. Carpeting, scrap wood, and drywall take up a lot of room. Concrete, rock, and dirt are very dense, and usually you can only fill the roll off container so high. Roll off containers of similar volume may come in different dimensions. One dimension that you want to ask the rental company about is height. It’s hard to get weighty materials over the side of a high roll off container, so ask if you can get a lower roll off container if you’ve got a lot of heavy items.
