Moving companies charge by weight and volume. Every box of junk you don't pack saves money on your move. A pre-move dumpster lets you sort through years of accumulated belongings and only take what you actually want in your new home. Most families are surprised by how much they can let go of, and every pound you don't move is money saved.
Order your dumpster 2-3 weeks before your move date. Spend the first week sorting room by room, the second week making final decisions and loading the dumpster, and the final week packing only what you're keeping. This approach reduces moving day stress significantly.
Be ruthless. Broken furniture, outdated electronics, worn-out clothing, and expired pantry items should go in the dumpster. Gently used items can be donated to local charities. Only move items you've used in the past year and that fit your new space.
A 15-yard dumpster works well for decluttering a 2-3 bedroom home. For larger homes or extensive cleanouts, a 20-yard dumpster provides extra capacity.
We recommend ordering 2-3 weeks before your move. This gives you plenty of time to sort through belongings at a comfortable pace.
Yes! Mattresses, box springs, and bed frames are commonly placed in dumpsters during moves. Some areas may have a small mattress disposal surcharge.
Moving companies charge by weight and volume, so every box of junk you don't pack lowers your bill. The exact savings depend on your mover's rates and how much you let go of, but decluttering first almost always pays for the dumpster.
