At KEI Dumpster Rental, we deliver dumpsters for all kinds of projects around Butler, PA and Butler County. Once we get into September and fall gets closer, more of those projects start moving outside.
And yard cleanups have a way of getting bigger than people expect.
You start out figuring you’ll trim a few branches, pull out a couple old shrubs and clean up the garden beds. A few hours later, there’s a pile of brush at the end of the driveway, another pile next to the garage and you’re wondering how you’re going to get rid of all of it.
We’ve seen it plenty of times.
If you’re planning a bigger fall cleanup this year, having a dumpster there before you start can save you a lot of extra work.
What Are You Cleaning Up This Fall?
Every property is different.
Some people are finally clearing out the overgrown corner of the yard they didn’t get to all summer. Others are removing old landscaping, cutting back shrubs, cleaning up after tree work or getting a property ready before winter.
A dumpster can be useful for cleanup involving things like:
- Branches and brush
- Shrubs and other landscaping
- Garden cleanup
- Sod
- Certain stone and landscaping materials
- Storm cleanup
- General outdoor property cleanup
The nice part is being able to get rid of debris as you go.
Instead of spending Saturday doing the yard work and Sunday figuring out what to do with everything you pulled out, you can load the dumpster while you’re working.
You Probably Don’t Need the Biggest Dumpster We Have
One of the questions we get at KEI Dumpster Rental is pretty simple:
What size dumpster do I need?
For a yard cleanup, bigger isn’t automatically better.
We have 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30-yard roll-off dumpsters available. The right size really comes down to what you’re doing and what you’re putting in it.
Cleaning up around the house and removing some old landscaping is a very different job from clearing a large property or dealing with a major amount of storm debris.
If you’re looking at the different sizes online and still aren’t sure, call us.
Tell us what you’re working on. We would rather help you choose the right dumpster before we deliver it than have you realize halfway through the project that you went too small or ordered more dumpster than you needed.
Dirt and Stone Are a Different Story
Here’s something worth knowing before you start loading.
Heavy material adds up fast.
Dirt, stone, sod and similar landscaping material may not take up much room in a dumpster, but the weight can become an issue long before the container looks full.
So if you’re tearing out landscaping and expect to have a lot of dirt, stone or other heavy material, tell us when you call.
Don’t just assume you can fill a large dumpster to the top with it.
We’ll talk through what you’re getting rid of and help you figure out the best way to handle the job.
Take a Look at Your Driveway Before the Dumpster Shows Up
Where are we putting it?
It’s a simple question, but it’s worth thinking about before delivery day.
We need enough room to safely deliver and pick up the container. Trees, low branches, vehicles and other obstacles can sometimes make a spot that looks good from the ground difficult for the delivery truck.
And think about where you’re actually doing the work.
If most of your cleanup is happening behind the house, putting the dumpster as close to the work area as practical can save a whole lot of walking back and forth with branches and debris.
Properties around Butler County aren’t all laid out the same. We see everything from residential driveways to larger rural properties, so if you have questions about where the dumpster can go, talk to us when you’re scheduling.
September Is a Good Time to Get Ahead of It
Anybody who has lived around Butler for a while knows what happens next.
The leaves start coming down, daylight gets shorter and before long you’re trying to squeeze outdoor projects into whatever decent weekends we have left.
That’s why September can be a good time to knock out the bigger yard projects.
Cut back what’s overgrown. Pull out the landscaping you don’t want anymore. Clean up the area behind the garage. Get rid of the branches that have been sitting there since summer.
Whatever has been on the list, get it done before the weather decides otherwise.
