Each job is different and may require a dumpster rental for a different period of time. You may have a medium-sized project (such as readying a commercial rental for a new client after the space had been repurposed), or you may have an even larger one (like the demolition of an old night club, as Trash It recently provided a dumpster for down the Jersey Shore). In these larger cases, Trash It drops off the dumpster rental and also returns periodically to pick up and dispose of the trash; usually this involves having two dumpsters in rotation so the project team always has a place to throw out their garbage. This also keeps the job and clean up moving at a steady pace.
But what if you are looking for a smaller job, something that can be accomplished in one day? Will dumpster companies even allow that kind of short-term rental? At Trash It, the answer is yes, you can rent a dumpster for one day. No job is too small for a rental, and we handle rentals that are only for one day all the time. For clients, this can mean a packed schedule, but it is cheaper than holding a dumpster for a longer period of time and can encourage teams to work efficiently. Learn more about these day-long rentals below.
What Kind of Job is for a Day-Long Rental
Dumpster rentals that are for only a day tend to be shorter jobs. Some examples of these smaller projects may include a landscaping job, such as clearing up debris after a storm, or the demolition of a small structure, like a shed or old swing set. Or even cleaning out a garage or basement. If you are unsure about what you can accomplish in a day, ask the experts at Trash It who can help.
What You Can Expect for a Dumpster Day Rental
Before you need a dumpster rental it is best to get in contact with your rental company about a week in advance to make sure everything can be planned out smoothly. You will give the site location, ask for a quote, and specify a size. The company will then tell you the time of drop off based on your schedule and then the time of pick up, so it is important to be ready and have hands on the site for those times. You should also specify what you will be trashing, just in case the company has any rules about what can be disposed of.
How to Choose the Right Size Dumpster
Given this is a day-long project, normally the company’s smallest rental size will do, such as a 10 yard, which is ideal for faster projects or complexes. It can hold 15 dressers, or 75 garbage bags, or about four truck beds of waste. Larger than a SUV, the 10 yard dumpster is perfect for light landscaping, roofing debris from a shed, or other small household projects. There are also 20 yard dumpsters, the next size up, for more substantive projects.
