Junk Removal Service vs. Dumpster Rental

When you have made the decision to remove all that junk lying around your house or construction debris from the yard, you may feel pretty good about the purge.

Dumpsters are great if you are looking at a construction or cleanout project that will last several days or weeks. This way, you can just add trash to the bin as you need to. When filled, the Dumpster will be removed from your property. You can take your time, filling as you go. Plus, you can determine the pickup day.

Cons

Dumpsters can leave marks on your property, especially on grass, and they can become eyesores for the neighbors to look at. While you can take your time filling it, this can result in higher costs. Dumpster rentals are by the day or month, so the longer you take to fill your Dumpster, the more you’ll pay. Those costs can really add up. If you overfill your Dumpster and exceed the weight limit, you will be charged extra.

Filling a Dumpster on your own can be back breaking work, particularly for construction debris, appliances and furniture. All items placed in a Dumpster go to the dump for trash removal. Compare this to a junk removal service that will separate recyclables and donations from the trash.

Junk Removal

Pros

Junk removal services will recycle or donate what they can, and trash the rest. This is an ideal option if you’re concerned about the environment.

Because there is no Dumpster left on your property, the eyesore factor is not a concern. Just call the service, they will come down, take what you need, put it in the truck, and leave. Simple!

You also won’t risk your physical health hauling all the stuff out on your own and putting it into a Dumpster. Junk removal specialists have safety equipment to get your junk out in the most efficient manner. All you have to do is tell them what to take and they will do it.

With a Dumpster, you usually have to pay fees associated with obtaining a permit. Junk removal services don’t typically require special permits, so those fees are non-existent. You will generally save money with a junk removal service over a Dumpster rental, as those Dumpster fees can add up as you tack on days.

Cons

You must agree to a specific day for the junk removal service to show up. This means you have to be home to let them in, possibly requiring some time off work. Also, if you make a mistake and miscalculate how much junk you have, you may have to pay for additional trips by the junk removal service.
