Should I rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal company?
When you’d prefer to clear out the junk/debris yourself, renting a dumpster is the best option. It’s a simple process that involves calling the dumpster rental company, choosing a container size, having it dropped off at your property, filling it up, and having it hauled away.
If you'd rather have someone else handle the dirty work for you, then junk removal is the best route to take. A team of junk removal specialists will come to your home or junk site, give you an estimate, then get to work if you're satisfied with the bid. You don't have to lift a finger; just tell them what you need removed, and they'll do the rest.
