How to Prepare for a 10 Cubic Yard Dumpster Delivery
Follow these guidelines:
- Select a Location: Clear a spot where you’d like your dumpster placed. On delivery day, ensure no cars or other obstacles block the delivery truck’s access to that spot.
- Remove Obstacles: The driver will need 18 feet of vertical clearance to raise and place your 10 yard dumpster. Choose a spot free from low-hanging wires or branches.
- Keep it Level: Fill your dumpster evenly to use the greatest amount of its volume and stay within your weight limit.
- Keep Prohibited Items Out: To avoid extra fees, check out our list of prohibited items that cannot go in your rental.
