You must plan dumpster placement accurately for tight driveways to avoid any consequences. Learn how you can do it properly.
Choosing the Right Side of the Driveway
Easy enough, right side of the driveway, closest to the front door. Put it on the right side, closer to the street instead of farther back toward the house. Put it on the right side but closer to the street. That way, if they do want to try to get in there and wiggle back and forth, they can get it out. Go to the side of the driveway closest to the front door. That way they can get in and out of the driveway.
Adjusting for Tight Spaces
Where’s it best to put this one? On the left-hand side here, like right here. Put it where the front of it is, like right here kind of. If that car wasn’t there, it’d be a whole lot better. Okay, cool, get it on this side and as close to the curb as possible.
Wondering Where To Put Your Dumpster?
Working Around Vehicles
If not, it can go in the street. Or is everything coming from the garage? Everything is coming from the garage, so it’ll be whenever possible. Maybe one car can go in and then the other one can be parked beside or behind it, if that’ll work. The husband is there, so he’ll take it, he’ll be able to determine.
Fine-Tuning the Final Position
Push it this way a little bit more? Scoot back a little bit, or is that good? That’s perfect. Get out of here and out of the way.
Not too bad. Not too bad.
Placement Around Doors and Gates
Can still do it with that there over here, or like in the driveway still. Put the back like right, like no, like right here. So the door can still swing open. Don’t need to move that. Not in the way, positive. Got this, just back straight up and drop it like right here.
All right, yeah, it’ll open that way, so the back goes right here.
Drop it right here, and put the back right there. Will that be good? Yeah, because it’ll still have plenty of room to swing that door open. Fine, you’re fine.
Protecting the Driveway Surface
At a kitchen and library project on the first day on site, a lot is happening at once. The rental dumpster gets dropped off, and plywood is put underneath it to protect the driveway.
What Happens Inside While the Dumpster Is Placed
The team is focused on the inside of the house at the same time, covering up everything to prevent dust from spreading. Dust covers go down, along with drop cloths and Ram Board on the floor to protect the floor from any damage.
A lot happens on that first day to get a project underway. This is part of a typical process, coming in on the first day to take really good care of the home to make sure comfort is maintained throughout the entire process.
Locating Gates Before Delivery
Show where to put it when arriving. As soon as the driveway comes into view, there’s a little gate, just the gate there. Yeah, it’s just a little chain, and then it locks over here with the chain as well.
Any way to get inside this gate? Oh no, wrong place. Drive a little bit down the road, it’s the second house visible on the left. Come a little bit further down the road, and it’ll be visible.
So it’s not these green gates. Keep going down and it’ll be on the left. And to the right. Oh, to the right. Okay, perfect, there it is. The big long driveway will be visible.
Got it, about to back up to it right now. Good now, it’s a whole lot better.
Handling Placement Requests
Rollies were requested. So rollies are what they’re going to get, let’s see if it’s right. Oh yeah, look at that dumpster skating. Boom, just like that. Kind of straighten it up.
Confirming the Setup Before Leaving
That’s okay, been here before. So, wondering if they still want it on that side.
Can still do it with that there over here or like in the driveway still. The back can go right here so the door can still swing open, no need to move it.
Let’s start all over again. Drop it right here and put the back right there. Yeah, because it’ll still have plenty of room to swing that door open. No, no, fine, you’re fine.
