First time renting a dumpster. Great customer service. They even put boards down to protect driveway. Everything went smoothly. Staff was helpful in explaining everything. Will recommend to others and definitely use again. Thank you for the great service!
Where Can I Place a 8 Yard Dumpster?
Since the 8 yard dumpster is quite big, it needs a sufficient amount of space in order to be placed on-site. These bins will need an area that is 49 square feet in size due to its 6’ x 6’ base. But equal consideration must be made for the garbage truck that has to empty out the dumpster. The truck will need about 40 feet of clearance in front of the dumpster, as well as 16 feet of vertical clearance. This is to allow enough room for the truck to lift the bin over the cabin and deposit its contents into the pickup bed.Most large commercial spaces will have plenty of space for these dumpsters in the back area of their facility. But if you are uncertain about where exactly you should keep your 8 yard dumpster, just give us a call.
