Holiday Cleanouts & New-Year Remodel Staging (Treasure Coast FL)

Brining Holiday cheer with dumpsters on the treasure coast

December is two jobs at once: clear space for guests and stage for January remodels. Do it in a single pass—without fees or schedule slips.1) Choose the right size (don’t pay for air or weight)

• Garage/attic/shed + furniture/cardboard: 20 or 25 yd.
  
• Big household purge: 25 or 30 yd, keep flat and below rails.
  
• Kitchen/bath refresh with tile: 15 yd (controls weight); or 30 yd with disciplined loading and a timely pull.
  

2) Sort before the can landsCreate three clear streams:

• Donate: box it, label it, and keep it off the load path.
  
• Restricted: liquids, batteries, propane, mercury bulbs, tires, refrigerators/ACs (recovery first).
  
• Load: heavy items staged by the door for a proper base.
  

3) Load order = more space, fewer problems

1. Heavy base low/centered.
   
2. Corners filled with light items.
   
3. Break down furniture and boxes; remove doors/legs.
   
4. Latch door, top off lightly, and stop at the rail.
   

4) Weather & storm notes (yes, even in December)

• Afternoon showers happen--tarp between workdays.
  
• Avoid placement over swales; wet turf swallows wheels and causes trip delays.
  

5) Pricing clarity (so December doesn’t surprise you)

• Confirm whether included tons are an allowance or minimum.
  
• Insist on pro-rated overages from certified scale tickets—no ¼- or ½-ton round-ups.
  
• Ask about “haul + tonnage” competitors who add environmental/CC surcharges in the fine print.
  

6) Quick wins to keep costs downTarp nightly • Keep loads flat • Stage restricted items for HHW/e-waste • Book realistic set/pick windows • Don’t “push one more layer” on top
