An Ultimate Guide to Eco-Friendly Home Waste Management

What is the Cost of Waste Management? 

Effective waste management at home keeps pests away and promotes good hygiene. Has it been a while since you sorted through your attic or garage to get rid of old cardboard boxes and other household junk? Rent a Bargain Bins Max dumpster or Clutter Buster bin to discard items that might be drawing pests to your home.  

Are you wondering how much a dumpster or bin rental costs and which size is best for your purposes? It all depends on what and how much you need to throw out. The Bargain Bins 3 Yard Clutter Buster has a lid and is the perfect size for an attic clear-out. It has driveway-safe rubber wheels, and you can easily move it back and forth between the curb or driveway and your back door. Remember to keep your recycle, repair, and donate containers close to your attic door.  

The Bargain Bins advertised dumpster rental rate means you can rent the Clutter Buster or a Max Roll Off dumpster for up to 7 days. You can get a lot of sorting done in a week! We offer swap out and multiple bin discounts, while our additional charges include costs for extra days and a fuel surcharge. We also charge extra if you want a lockable Clutter Buster bin.  

Waste facilities have strict rules about the materials they accept, and we, in turn, must clearly communicate which materials customers can throw in our bins. Our materials guideline is a great help. The El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste Facility accepts items such as paints and chemicals.

A Residential Waste Management Guide

Whose turn is it to take out the trash? Does your family groan when it’s trash day, and they fight about who took the bins out the last time? No residential waste management guide is complete without suggestions to solve this problem. Effective home waste management starts with making good choices and encouraging good habits. Organize separate household bins for recycling plastic, cans, glass, and paper. Use a lidded bucket for the food scraps you throw onto the compost heap daily. When your loved ones get into the habit of recycling and composting, putting out the trash becomes routine.

What can you do with items that cannot go into a standard household or recycling bin? The Call2Recycle project specializes in recycling various types of household batteries. Store the batteries safely, and you can take them to a convenient drop-off location bi-annually. If you are planning to clear out the basement because you want to convert it into a family den, you definitely want a Bargain Bins Clutter Buster. The 3 yard bin is equal to 1.5 pick-up truck loads and is easy to move around. It has driveway-safe rubber wheels and a lockable lid.

Your home renovation project in the basement will generate construction debris. When you intend to clear out the basement and convert the den in the same week, you might want to order a Bargain Bins Max 12 Yard Dumpster. Our materials guideline specifies what you can put in the bins and dumpsters. Customers can throw up to two old mattresses or box springs in, but no wet or dry paint.

Find the Right Dumpster Bin for Eco-Friendly Waste Disposal 

Home waste disposal can be frustrating, expensive, and time-consuming when you have items that your garbage collection and recycling service providers cannot take. Why do you want to load your trash in a pick-up truck and make multiple trips to the dump when  you can get the right Bargain Bins dumpster or bin for your needs? We try to make it as easy as possible for our clients. Reserve a dumpster online or over the phone, and we will deliver it to your home. You don’t even have to be there if the bin is placed in a conveniently accessible location. We also advertise our fees so you can make an informed decision.

Are you clearing a section of your garden and don’t know what to do with the tree clippings, leaves, dead shrubs and extra sod? You can throw it all into a Bargain Bins dumpster, along with any lawn, metal, or wooden garden furniture you want to discard. They are all acceptable materials. We haul the bin away when the seven-day rental period is over. If the dumpster is full before the rental period is complete, and you need a second bin, we will collect the full one and give you a swap-out discount.  

Bargain Bins is locally owned, and the owners have decades of experience working with large national and private trash collection companies before starting the business. We have a simple business model that allows us to pass savings onto you, and we use only 2019 or newer equipment. The Bargain Bins team wants every client to choose the right dumpster for their purpose, which is why we offer various sizes.

Do you need to rent a roll-off container for a home business renovation project, but you don’t want the driveway of your property to be damaged? Bargain Bins Max Roll Offs have rubber wheels instead of the standard metal wheels. Only Bargain Bins vehicles are allowed to move our branded roll offs around. We offer 12, 15, and 20 yard dumpsters and request clients to consider the following when deciding where to keep the dumpster for the project period – the area should be level and have enough room to drop the bin off and pull out the truck. The space above the drop-off area must be clear to tip the dumpster as it rolls off.   

Bargain Bins roll offs are made from reinforced steel and uniquely designed to hold construction and other waste materials. The environmental benefit of steel dumpsters is that the material is very recyclable and doesn’t lose its physical properties despite being used over and over again. Bargain Bins roll offs are open bins with a door at the end of the dumpster you can comfortably walk through. Materials and weight restriction guidelines apply to all our bins and dumpsters.
