Open-Top Dumpster Guide
Things You Need To Know...
WHEN SHOULD I CHOOSE THIS SERVICE?
- Ordering an open-top dumpster is best suited for larger volume jobs. This includes large household cleanups, construction projects, and demolition jobs. When this much volume needs to be removed it is cost efficient to use this dumpster type and load the material yourself. A white glove junk removal service would increase your overall cost.
- Open-top dumpsters are commonly used for temporary projects, but they are also available for permanent or on-call service for large volume producers.
VERY IMPORTANT!
- Do not overload your dumpster. This is a serious safety hazard, both for people loading the dumpster and the driver who needs to transport it to its final destination.
- Do not put unacceptable material in the dumpster. (See List Below)
