Dumpster rental or junk removal?
Renting a dumpster is usually cheaper if you are willing to load it yourself and the job takes more than a few hours. Junk removal wins when the volume is small, you cannot do the lifting, or you need it gone today.
When a dumpster wins
Multi-day projects, renovations and cleanouts where material comes out gradually. You load at your own pace instead of paying somebody by the hour.
Anything where you would otherwise make repeated trips to the landfill.
When junk removal wins
Small volumes, heavy single items, or when you physically cannot load it. Also when there is nowhere to put a can.
A dumpster only saves money if somebody is actually going to fill it. If nobody is, the labour is the real problem and you are better off paying for labour.
