Whether you a clearing out a room in your home, finally doing that DIY project you have always looked at doing, or even demolishing that old shed, deciding how to dispose of the various items can be tricky. While various options are out there, it commonly comes down to two main solutions: Rent a Dumpster, or Hire a Junk Removal Company. While there are pros and cons to both of these services, we believe that there is one clear winner. So should you rent a dumpster, or hire a junk removal company? Lets find out!

The Pros and Cons of Dumpsters

Dumpsters are a simple service that can vastly help you with your needs. They come in various sizes based on the job that you are looking to accomplish, additionally ranging in cost. However, there are quite a few problems with roll off dumpsters. First, The dumpsters often sit either in your driveway or front yard, leaving your home looking more cluttered. Second, the dumpster does not include the labor of removing the items themselves. Often, it is cheaper and more efficient for a junk removal company to quickly remove heavy items from your home. Third, these dumpsters are taken straight to disposal sights, meaning perfectly good furniture and other items are wasted instead of being donated, reused, or recycled. Fourth, depending on the size, some dumpsters can cause damage to your yard or driveway, leading to additional cost and time to fix it. Finally, dumpsters mean that your items have to sit outside your home, where the elements can scatter them, leading to more of a mess to clean up.
