What to Expect When You Rent a Dumpster in the Winter

November 3, 2020 Residential Containers

Choose Small Haul Containers for your Kansas City Dumpster Rental

Winter is one of the best times of the year to clean out your home or renovate rooms! You aren’t tempted outside and distracted by recreational activities, thanks to the threat of snow and sub-freezing temperatures, so you can stay focused on decluttering, cleaning, demolition, and designing!

To complete any of these projects, however, we recommend that you rent a dumpster and have it delivered to your home in South Kansas City, Belton, Olathe, Overland Park, Stilwell, Shawnee, Lenexa, or Prairie Village. When you do, you can simplify the work you have to do to transform your home into a showpiece by the spring season.

Before you reserve your residential dumpster rental online, here are a few things you should be aware of with regard to renting a dumpster during the winter months.

Renting a Dumpster in Winter Offers Better Availability

All summer, your neighbors took on renovation projects indoors and out, so renting a dumpster compatible with your availability was more complicated. With dumpster inventory low because of high demand, you might have had to wait during the summer and early fall to get the dumpster you needed to complete your projects.

In the winter, you can expect the demand for dumpster rentals to decrease for DIY home renovation projects, so you can rest assured that the size of dumpster you need will be ready for you. Small Haul Containers can sometimes even accommodate same-day dumpster rental requests, for those projects that you’ve decided you should complete ASAP, or for emergency clean-outs.

Winter Weather is No Problem for a Dumpster Rental

Small Haul Containers delivers residential dumpsters regardless of the weather conditions, as long as it is safe to do so. Our heavy trucks will come to your home, and our drivers will drop off the dumpster you requested.

We know how important keeping to a construction timeline is to our clients, which is why we make sure that we uphold our end of the deal when it comes to making a reservation.

Shovel Your Driveway If There’s Snow

Although we deliver dumpsters in any weather, we do ask that if there is snow accumulation on your driveway or patio – or whatever hard surface you’d like us to place your dumpster on – that you clear it of snow prior to our arrival.

Shoveling snow where you’d like the dumpster placed helps us with our no-contact delivery. For every dumpster we drop off and pick up, we protect your driveway with a special underlayment. With snow on the ground, it can be difficult for us to precisely place the underlayment on a solid surface, which is important for keeping your dumpster level so you can fill it more evenly and efficiently.

Cover Your Dumpster During Inclement Weather

Maximize the square yardage available inside your dumpster to get the most for your money. If snow is in the forecast, and one of our shiny blue rental dumpsters is parked on your property, we highly recommend that you cover the top of the dumpster with a tarp to prevent snow from accumulating inside. Not only will this maximize the space you have for your debris and discarded materials, but it also makes it easier for us to pick up the dumpster and haul it away and keeps the dumpster weight within the 2,000-pound limit required for most of our containers.
