10 Yard Dumpster Tips for Bar Harbor, ME

What types of debris can go in a 10 yard dumpster?

The most common reasons to rent a 10 yard dumpster include:

  • Household cleanouts and junk removal
  • Construction and demolition (C&D) debris disposal
  • Renovation and remodeling debris

So, general wastes and junk that fall into any of these categories are typically accepted by most dumpster rental companies. However, certain wastes are prohibited due to environmental rules and regulations. This varies by location, but common wastes that shouldn’t go into the dumpster include:

  • Liquids (e.g., motor oil)
  • Chemicals (e.g., insecticides, pesticides, etc.)
  • Scrap automobile tires (some rental companies accept tires for an additional fee)
  • Asbestos debris (check with your rental provider)
  • E-waste (check with your rental provider)
