Dumpster Loading Tips to Maximize Space

How you load a dumpster can be the difference between one haul and two.

How you load a dumpster can be the difference between one haul and two.

Flat and heavy first

Lay doors, plywood and heavy items flat on the floor first to create a stable base.

Break things down

Disassemble furniture, cut branches into short lengths and flatten cardboard.

Fill gaps

Pack smaller debris into the voids between bulky items.

Stay below the fill line

Debris must not extend above the container walls for safe, legal transport.

Distribute weight

Spread heavy materials evenly so the container stays balanced for pickup.
