Dumpsters Can Take Up A lot Of Space Some of the larger dumpsters are eight feet in width and 20 feet in length and just will not fit in tight alleys or smaller driveways with limited access for a large dumpster delivery truck to maneuver. In some cases. a smaller dumpster, with a length of 10 or 12 feet can possibly be placed where the larger dumpsters can’t fit. The point is that, even if you have a large volume of waste, you may have to rent a smaller dumpster if you are limited on space.

Where Will You Put Your Rented Dumpster? You will most likely want the dumpster located in a spot that makes it easy for you to load, but you’ll also need to consider the following. Dumpsters can be up to 8 feet in width and up to 20 feet in length and are delivered by trucks that are 35 feet long. You’ll need to find a space for the dumpster which is hard, level, truck accessible, and free from overhead obstructions such as wires and tree branches. Sturdy driveways, parking lots, gravel areas, public streets(where ordinances allow) are all possible locations for your rented dumpster. And before we leave the topic of dumpster placement, let me mention an obvious point- Dumpster companies need a correct address to deliver their roll offs, so be sure to have the correct address when contacting your local dumpster company. Deciding When To Have Your Dumpster Delivered You might want to have your dumpster delivered a day before you plan to actually start filling it to avoid having to double handle your waste materials. Sometimes, dumpster companies can deliver dumpsters the same day that they’re ordered, but ordering a dumpster a few days in advance is best. During peak dumpster usage times of the year(April through November) you may want to reserve your dumpster a week in advance to ensure the right size dumpster will be available for your needs. Always Put Safety First When Loading Your Dumpster Use good safety practices when working around dumpsters. The following are a few safety issues/items you should adhere to: *Overloaded dumpsters present a safety problem as, even though they’re covered with a tarp, materials can fall off the dumpster when being loaded on truck or being transported to landfill. Please refrain from loading your dumpster above the sides. *Don’t use your dumpster to dispose of flammable materials, gas cylinders, liquids, asbestos, etc. *Don’t allow others to play on, around, or climb on your dumpster. *Don’t climb on dumpster. *Common sense and caution make for a good combination when working around any equipment.
