People often don’t give it much thought, but there are some very strict laws around waste disposal, so you should always get rid of junk and debris responsibly.

On the surface, junk removal may seem simple. When it comes to large amounts of junk in a commercial environment, however, a bit of a process is involved. You can hire a commercial junk removal company to get rid of any trash and waste materials with ease.

In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about commercial trash collection. Keep reading for more.

How the Commercial Junk Removal Process Works

The first thing you need to do is find a suitable company. Most people will do this by searching on Google for a junk removal company in their area. LWS Dumpsters, for example, provides services within Chester County, PA, Delaware County, PA, and New Castle County, DE.

You also want to make sure q company can provide what you require. You can talk to our team to discuss how much waste you need to get rid of as well as any other factors that could have an impact.

Ideally, you should try to find a few companies that offer junk removal. You can then get quotes from them and make comparisons. These should be free, so you can easily get an idea of the dumpster fee from different providers.

Bear in mind that the cheapest option may not always be the best. Saving money is good, but you might find the least expensive companies to be less reliable. It’s worth looking at reviews and testimonials to get a better idea of what to expect.

After settling on a company, they’ll provide your dumpster. The size can vary, so you can discuss your needs with them to determine the best dumpster for you.

Benefits of Commercial Junk Removal

In general, picking up trash isn’t usually a big deal. For some projects, however, there can be a huge amount of waste. Getting rid of this could be very challenging.

A rental dumpster is a flexible solution so you can get the right one for your needs. At LWS dumpsters, we have options that range from 10 to 40 cubic yards. Whether you simply need to get rid of some excess junk in your building, or you’re doing renovation works that create a lot of debris and waste, we can offer something suitable.

You can put a huge range of materials in waste dumpsters, but it’s important to note that some items and materials are prohibited. This includes bio-hazardous materials, flammable products, toxic substances, and more. This is typically true of all junk removal companies as it comes down to federal and state regulations.

Most would agree that the main benefit is the ease of the process. You just need to make sure you have space for the dumpster you need. We can deliver it to the site, then once you’ve filled it, we’ll take it away and get rid of the waste materials.

Another benefit is that this is an environmentally friendly solution. We’ll make sure all waste is disposed of properly to help keep the environmental impact to a minimum.

Proper waste disposal is vital if you want to maintain a sanitary environment. This is crucial in commercial settings, so hiring a junk removal service can make things safer for your employees.

Preparing for Your Dumpster

Fortunately, preparing for your junk removal is fairly simple. The only thing you need to do in advance is make sure you have a suitable place to keep the dumpster while you’re using it.

Firstly, this space needs to be larger than the dimensions of the dumpster itself. Aside from keeping the dumpster there, it’s important to have some space around the edge. Our smallest dumpster, for example, is 8 feet wide and 12 feet long, so you’ll need a spot bigger than this.

You also need to ensure that the ground is flat, even, and stable. Placing a dumpster on a slope could present a safety hazard, so make sure the space you have ready is solid and won’t cause any issues. We’ll place driveway protection under the dumpster wheels, so you won’t have to worry about the ground being damaged by it.

Bear in mind it also needs to be accessible. Our driver needs to be able to unload your dumpster and then load it again when they come to remove it.

Other Precautions

We always try to meet the needs of our customers, but we recommend booking your dumpster well in advance. This will make it easier for us to ensure you get the right size and that you have it exactly when you need it. We’re open from 7 am to 6 pm every day, so you can contact us during this time to organize things.

Depending on your site and the spot you have for your dumpster, you may want to take illegal dumping into consideration. If members of the public can easily access it, they may dump waste inside when no one is around. Ideally, you want to have it secured, especially overnight, though this isn’t always possible.

Depending on the waste you need to get rid of, you might fill a dumpster quite quickly. If this happens, it’s important that you don’t over-fill it.

All dumpsters have a capacity, and if waste is stacked too high it could cause issues when we remove it. Make sure your employees know what the limit is. Ensuring that they know how to fill it efficiently will be very helpful here.
