As you know, in business, time is money. Choosing the wrong dumpster rental service may cost you both. The hidden expenses when dealing with some waste removal companies are numerous. Delivery delays, incorrect dumpster sizes, late pick-ups and removal, and contract premiums all cause hidden expenses when renting a dumpster with a company who contracts or out-sources waste removal services.

Delivery Delays

Companies that hire contractors or other waste removal services to conduct deliveries and pick-ups or rent their trash containers often miss delivery deadlines, causing serious delays. Delays in delivery or pick-up mean that your hired laborers sit around all day waiting to fill a dumpster that does not arrive on time. This is wasted labor expense and may add days or even weeks to a project's time span. Often, delays in dumpster delivery cause you to miss your own deadlines, causing delays for other contractors or services.

Incorrect Dumpster Size

Renting the correct size dumpster is crucial when placing an order for waste removal services. There is nothing worse than ordering a dumpster, having it delivered to your site, filling it, and realizing that the dumpster is not large enough to accommodate. In this case, you must call the company and request another dumpster, costing you more money and wasting time. Ordering too large of a dumpster also creates unnecessary expense. Before placing an order for dumpster rental, know the amount of trash you wish to remove and discuss container sizes with the company you choose. Be sure that the dumpster rental service you choose has a container size that fits your needs.

Companies that outsource waste removal activities or rent their dumpsters from other suppliers are more difficult to deal with. Many times, a comprehensive list of dumpster sizes and specific features is unavailable. If the list is available, you often go through three or four different contacts before finding someone who can help you find the correct size dumpster for your job.

Avoid Hidden Fees

Choose an all-inclusive service rather than a dumpster rental company that out-sources waste removal activities. All-inclusive services often offer guaranteed next day service. You only have to contact one office to request services. The company is not an intermediary, so you do not pay the markup in service cost due to contracting surcharges. Most often, all-inclusive companies conduct their own delivery and pick-up activities, making it a more timely process. In addition, these companies use their own containers and trucks, making it easier to offer safety and satisfaction to you, the consumer.
