Hi, I did a search but couldnt find anything on this subject. Parents want to clean out 2-car garage. Some stuff we will donate, but lot of it is just trash/rubbish/junk. Nothing hazardous, just your typical garage junk. I was hoping someone here knows of a good company that will drop off one of them construction-type dumpsters at your home and come back to pick it up. Just need it for about a week. My parents called one company and got a price of $300 for 2 weeks. Too much for their fixed income, so anyone have a friend of a friend who knows a friend who rents these things cheap? Thank you. Im not new here on CD, just moved to charlotte from miami, so i thought i'd get a new name also

Thanks!

Call Russo... They'll give you as cheap a price as anyone... Keep in mind there are several sizes, larger are more expensive and smaller is cheaper.

Another cheaper option may be to rent a truck and haul it yourself. Cheaper for sure, but a lot more work.

@bronze. $300 for two weeks sounds right

Pickup truck load of trash is $15 at the dump..

300 for 1 dump is going to be the average price. I don't think you're going to do much better than that.

BTW, it's not a per week charge really, it's a per dump charge.

They charge to drop it off, they charge to pick it up, and they charge for every dump.. in your case one dump. The monthly fee if any is negligible if at all and you'd probably not have a problem getting a monthly fee waived if there is even one to start with.

I've used more dumpsters than I could count being in the construction industry for so many years.

Try CWS, talk to Marlo..

Trash Control in Monroe. I have one in my yard right now. We use them for our jobs too. The price does usually run between $300-$400 though but our loads are very heavy!!

thanks everyone...I will give these companies a call. Just wanted to make sure that my parents were getting a fair price. They are in their 60s and just hear the price and not consider all involved.
