An Overview of Commercial Dumpster Service

It can sometimes be a challenge for a business to find the appropriate commercial dumpster service. There are many things to consider, and it can be hard to know where to start. Many industries, such as restaurants and hotels, have seasonal volume increases, complicating their waste management plans. Small businesses must also consider whether a trash compactor would be a cost-effective solution and comply with local health and safety standards.

What Is a Business Dumpster Service?

Having a dumpster on-site with weekly or monthly pickups is an important service for businesses. Many owners and managers consider this a fixed cost of operations, but there are many ways to better manage waste management costs with commercial dumpster service.

What Type of Collection Services Do I Need?

You may need to perform a waste stream audit and analysis to right-size your waste management budget. There are many dumpster sizes available, and sometimes it is better to choose a larger container and lower the pickup frequency. At the same time, other businesses do better with small containers and weekly pickups.

In general, consider these typical examples:

• 2-4 yard dumpsters for small retail shops and restaurants
• 6-8 yard dumpsters for apartment complexes, gas stations, busy restaurants, and large retail stores
• Commercial compactors up to 40 yards are often used by high-rise buildings and megastores
• Similar-sized recycling containers to reduce the volume of waste as much as possible

Negotiating Lower Rates and Better Customer Service

In many parts of the country, you might be restrained by municipal contracts and franchise agreements that limit your choice of haulers. You may be free to choose any dumpster service available in other areas but struggle to get past the high rates and additional fees they quote to individual businesses.
