There are many different projects both at home and on the job that might require a dumpster rental. Once you have decided to rent one, it is good idea to get a bit more knowledge on the ‘Ins and Outs’ of what you have rented and how to get best use out of it.
Once you have decided on a size and booked your rental, here come a questions- “Where will I put my dumpster?” You will want to designate a clear space slightly larger than the dumpster that is accessible by truck, as this is how your trash dumpster will be delivered. It is important that the land is firm and can handle the weight of the rental dumpster and waste material.
When your dumpster is loaded and ready to be picked up, the waste can be stacked no higher than the walls of the dumpster. Items should be flat with weight distributed as evenly as possible. If there is a lot of shifting of the items sticking out above the walls, you may need to jump up and restack your materials before it is picked up.
Keeping the loading door open, walk or wheel all the way to the “back” of the dumpster and pile it as level as possible. There should not be any open pockets of the space within the stack. It is those pockets that can cause items to shift dangerously when it is picked up, over even worse, while you are still loading it. Plus pockets waste important space for your materials. Try to get the stack as high as you can without it tumbling down or reaching the top of the bin.
If you find yourself with only as small gap between a large amount of garbage and the door. At this point it is a good to close up a loading door and use a ladder to continue filling in the opening left at the end.
