As you renovate your backyard, you may turn your attention to an old shed. What once held essential decorations, furniture, and boxes may have become your yard’s biggest eyesore. But tearing down a shed isn’t so simple when these structures are still full of old items. That’s where dumpster rental comes in.
If you’re preparing for a shed teardown, keep reading to see why our team recommends scheduling dumpster rentals for this upcoming project.
Efficient Waste Removal
The last thing you want to deal with when tearing down a shed is frequent stops while you wait for your curbside dumpster to be emptied. You can ensure a smooth timeline by scheduling a dumpster rental before you begin this project. When you schedule, you can discuss your waste removal needs and get recommendations on dumpster size from your chosen dumpster professional. This ensures you won’t have to wait for dumpster pickup to continue the project.
Handles Various Debris
With a shed teardown, you can expect to deal with a great deal of debris. There will be a lot of scrap metal, wood, cardboard, paper, and more littered throughout the shed. When you schedule a dumpster rental, you guarantee that your waste removal is equipped to handle whatever debris you may experience while tearing down a shed. If you want something that can handle small and large items, various materials, and more, a dumpster rental is a must-have.
Saves You on Trips to the Dump
Like with any other home clean-up project, tearing down a shed can be time-consuming. Whether you used the shed to store old outdoor tools, unused furniture, holiday decorations, or boxes, there is often a lot to get through before you can begin tearing it down. By scheduling a dumpster rental, you can cut out multiple trips to the dump and focus on removing waste from the shed. Not only will this save you money, but it will also save you hours of time.
Increases Safety
When you’re emptying a shed, especially for a loved one, you might not know what items to expect. You may run into piles of rusty nails, sharp metals, and broken materials. Leaving these items to sit around while tearing down a shed can be risky. Exposure to sharp, rusty metal puts you at risk of developing tetanus. By renting a dumpster, you can dispose of these metal scraps and materials quickly and efficiently, keeping you and your loved ones safe from this painful illness.
Cost-Effective Waste Removal
As mentioned above, taking trips to the dump can be time-consuming and costly. The Weber County dump charges $50 per ton of waste, with a 480-pound minimum. As this number gets higher and higher, you may be overwhelmed by the cost. Add in the price of gas driving back and forth, and suddenly, this waste removal is far more than you expected. Instead of driving to the dump and spending hundreds of dollars per trip while tearing down a shed, rent a dumpster. This will ensure you know how much you’re paying when you schedule your rental.
Ensures Compliance with Local Waste Removal Regulations
While tearing down a shed, you don’t know exactly what you’re going to run into. In some cases, you may find things that can’t be thrown into a curbside dumpster. Although you may be tempted to just throw it into a dumpster and hope for the best, this can result in costly fines. By scheduling a dumpster rental, you can ensure items are being disposed of properly, making this shed teardown far less expensive than it would be with these surprise fees and fines.
Reduces Environmental Impact
When you throw waste into your curbside dumpster, it ends up in a landfill. While some items have to go to the landfill, there are other items, like paper, cardboard, glass, and some metals, that can be recycled. When you schedule a dumpster rental, you can also choose to rent a recycling dumpster. This ensures you reduce the environmental impact of tearing down a shed, which may be a major dealbreaker for some homeowners, and send recyclable goods to a local recycling plant.
Capacity for Bulky Items
Sometimes, sheds are used to store large items that don’t have a place in your home. As you prepare for tearing down a shed, you’ll need somewhere to dispose of these bulky items. While some may fit in your curbside dumpster, you will only be able to fit so much debris. Instead of overwhelming your smaller dumpster with large debris, schedule a dumpster rental. With a larger dumpster, you can fit far more debris without worrying about overfilling it.
