Dumpsters

Post by Greg S »

Anybody rent a dumpster locally? Looking for something cheap and reliable. Just need to clear out some old mattresses and such.

We get a dumpster every couple years to Marie Kondo our |expletive|. It usually runs about 150-200 and they leave it for several days. I'd have to find the contact info, but I'd wager it's a competitive price.

ILast year I used my 4 trips to River City and would probably do this again.

Since I don't have a truck, I'd go get one from Home Depot and get larger haul each go.

There's also the spring cleaning every saturday going on right now. Wasteline has a list of what you can/can't drop off, but they pretty much take anything that's not concrete, dirt, or hazardous. I've dropped off grills, mattresses, and a couple of my less successful children. it's free.

I’d be interested in knowing who you used also.

It may be cheaper to rent/borrow a truck and just drive it to the landfill's public dump site. You can probably rent a truck for around $50 for the day and the dump fee is probably about the same.
