You’re building a new house. Running a renovation project. Managing a commercial construction site. All of these create continuous debris that needs to go somewhere. Scrap lumber, drywall scraps, packaging materials, cut-offs, demolished materials – it piles up fast on a jobsite. Construction dumpsters keep your site clean and safe. OSHA has requirements about debris management on construction sites. Insurance companies care about site safety. And honestly, you just can’t work efficiently when there’s trash and debris scattered everywhere. Ryan’s been renting construction dumpsters to contractors throughout Marion County since 2020. Builders, remodelers, commercial contractors – they all need reliable dumpster service. Call him at (352) 843-7280.
Construction projects vary wildly, so dumpster size depends on what you’re building or renovating.
20 yard for smaller construction jobs: Single room additions, bathroom builds, deck construction, smaller renovation projects. When you’re not generating massive amounts of debris but still need a proper dumpster on site. Cost is $465.
30 yard for medium construction: Whole house renovations, medium commercial projects, substantial additions. This is a common size for general contractors doing residential work around Ocala. Cost is $515.
40 yard for large construction: New house builds, large commercial construction, multi-unit projects. When you’ve got continuous debris generation over weeks or months. Cost is $565.
Some construction sites need multiple dumpsters or regular exchanges. You fill one, Ryan swaps it for an empty one, repeat as needed throughout the project. That’s common on larger builds.
Building a new house generates different debris than renovation work. Most of it is relatively clean construction waste.
Scrap lumber is a big part of new construction debris. Cut-offs from framing, trim pieces, damaged boards. All that wood goes in the dumpster. Drywall scraps from cutting and fitting sheets. Packaging materials from all the products delivered to the site – cardboard, plastic wrapping, banding. Concrete forms and scraps if you’re doing foundation work.
New construction debris isn’t usually super heavy. You’re dealing with wood, drywall, packaging. The one-ton weight limit included in the rental often works fine for new builds, though larger projects might go over.
Builders typically keep a dumpster on site for the duration of the project. As each phase creates debris, it goes straight in the dumpster. When it fills up, they call for an exchange – Ryan brings an empty one and takes the full one away.
Renovation work creates heavier, messier debris than new construction. You’re tearing stuff out before you can build new.
Demo debris from gutting rooms. Old drywall, studs, flooring, cabinets, fixtures. This stuff is often mixed with dust and old building materials. Tile and concrete from bathroom or kitchen tear-outs. Old siding if you’re replacing exterior materials. Windows and doors being replaced.
Renovation debris tends to be heavier and dirtier than new construction waste. You might go over the weight limit faster, especially if you’re tearing out tile, concrete, or masonry.
Contractors doing whole-house renovations around Marion County often start with a 30 yard dumpster for the demo phase. Once they’re past demolition and into rebuild, debris generation slows down.
A dumpster on site means debris doesn’t pile up around the jobsite. Workers can toss scraps and waste as they go instead of creating piles that need cleanup later.
OSHA has rules about trip hazards and site cleanliness. Debris scattered around creates safety issues. A dumpster centralizes all the waste in one location.
Inspectors appreciate clean jobsites. When the building inspector shows up, you don’t want debris everywhere. A proper dumpster keeps things organized.
Contractors also just work faster on clean sites. You’re not constantly moving piles of scrap out of the way or watching where you step. The dumpster keeps the work area clear.
Construction timelines vary, but most projects need the dumpster longer than 14 days.
New house construction might need a dumpster for months. You keep the same dumpster and call for exchanges as it fills. Or you might use different sizes at different phases – bigger during framing, smaller during finish work.
Renovation projects might need two to six weeks depending on scope. Whole house remodels take time. You’ll probably need at least one exchange during that period.
The rental includes 14 days. After that it’s $25 per day. For long-term construction, that daily rate adds up. Some contractors factor that into their project budgets from the start. Others schedule pickups strategically to minimize extra days.
Ryan works with construction schedules all the time. If you know your project timeline, tell him when you call and he can help plan the most cost-effective approach.
Most construction debris is fine for the dumpster. Wood, drywall, metal, concrete, brick, tile, roofing materials, siding, flooring, packaging, cardboard. Standard construction waste all goes in.
Some things you can’t put in construction dumpsters. Hazardous materials like paint, stains, solvents, adhesives in liquid form. Asbestos if you’re working on an older building. Tires, batteries, propane tanks.
If you’re doing concrete work, keep an eye on weight. Concrete is extremely heavy. A dumpster full of concrete weighs way more than a dumpster full of wood. You’ll hit weight limits fast.
Not sure about something specific? Call Ryan and ask. Construction sites generate all kinds of materials and sometimes it’s not obvious what’s allowed.
Where you put the dumpster matters on a construction site. You want it accessible but not blocking work areas or deliveries.
Most sites put the dumpster near the main work area but off to the side. Close enough that workers can easily toss debris in, far enough that it’s not in the way of equipment or material deliveries.
The dumpster needs hard, level ground. Construction sites often have rough terrain, but find a spot that’s solid enough to support the loaded weight.
For street placement in Marion County, some cities require permits. Ryan knows which areas need permits for construction site dumpsters.
Access matters too. The roll-off truck needs to get in to deliver and pick up the dumpster. Make sure there’s clearance for the truck to maneuver.
