What are the differences between commercial and residential dumpster rentals? Can I use the same dumpster rental service for my office space as I do for my house? If you have never rented a dumpster before, you may have common questions like these, along with a few others. Here are the three simple things you need to know about a commercial or a residential dumpster rental in Douglasville, GA.
- Cost
It may be tempting to select a residential dumpster for your office space because they tend to be cheaper; however, you must be honest about the use and purpose of the dumpster. The dumpster rental company will haul the dumpster rental to the property, and more than likely, the delivery personnel will be able to tell your commercial facility is not a residential one. You also must tell the dumpster rental company what you will throw away in the dumpster rental. For example, if you are renovating a property, you may need a heavy-duty dumpster rental in Douglasville, GA. On the other hand, if you are cleaning out a property filled with junk, a regular dumpster rental will work.
- Regulations
A commercial property may have to obtain a permit from a local municipality to place and use a commercial dumpster. A dumpster rental company can help you obtain this permit and meet the local municipality regulations before they deliver and service your dumpster rental.
- Size
Last but not least, the most common difference between commercial and residential dumpsters is their sizes. Residential dumpsters tend to be smaller than commercial dumpsters because commercial properties produce more waste.
