Dumpsters have been used for waste disposal for centuries, originating from two entrepreneurs who created uniformly sized containers that could be loaded onto garbage trucks. There are now different types of dumpsters, including roll-off dumpsters which have open tops, rectangular shapes, and wheels to be moved by special trucks. Roll-off dumpsters are well-suited for construction and demolition debris. When renting a dumpster, you can dispose of yard waste and construction materials but should avoid explosives, toxins, or anything that could endanger health. Renting from a company like Junk King offers convenient roll-off dumpster rental and removal services.
