Renting a waste disposal bin is the perfect solution for disposing of excess materials. However, there are certain guidelines to follow for what is and isn’t allowed to be placed inside your rental bin.

Generally, construction and demolition debris is perfectly fine for your disposal bin. It is the most common reason why you would need a bin rental. So your drywall, lumber, siding, flooring, tile, and yard waste – it’s all fair game.

Now, what else can you throw into your rental bin?

Furniture

Old furniture that you are getting rid of, such as tables, desks, chairs, mattresses, and other household items can readily be placed in your bin rental.

Appliances

Your old dishwasher, refrigerator, washing machine, dryer, and small appliances may be disposed of in your bin rental. Just be wary of any leftover fluid inside that could be hazardous. These hazardous wastes need to be disposed of properly and safely before appliances can be placed in the dump.

Electronics

Your old collection of televisions, printers, phones, computers, monitors, etc, can be thrown out in your waste bin. Though, if they are still in good condition, you may want to try selling them. Also, don’t forget to wipe and destroy any hard drives to protect your privacy!

What Can’t Be Thrown Away

While the above covers the majority of what you would likely be removed from your home during a renovation project, there may be some items that come up that cannot be placed into your rental bin. The main culprits are hazardous and chemical materials. These need to be properly disposed of and cannot be placed in your bin. Asbestos, lead paint chips, pesticides, herbicides, gasoline, flammable materials, batteries and other similar waste are no good. Hazardous, chemical waste and even food must be properly thrown away for safety reasons.
