BAGSTER BAG® OR DUMPSTER?

Both the Bagster bag and a dumpster can be excellent solutions to handle the waste from your next project. Use our guide below to help you decide which is best for your project.

Bagster Vs. Dumpster:  What to Consider

What items will you be removing?

Examples: sink, tile, countertop, carpets, decking.

How much space will these items take up if they are piled together?

Volume constraints are very important to consider.

Are any of the items especially heavy?

Denser items like brick don't take up a lot of space, but they are very heavy.

How long will your project take to finish?

Examples: weekend, week, month, not sure.

Do you have room for a dumpster?

Consider your driveway, traffic, and neighbors.

Are there rules in your neighborhood about having a dumpster?

Check with your city or town council's office.

What is your budget for waste removal?

Is it fixed? Or can it grow if the length of the job grows.

Now that you've considered your project's volume, weight, scope, budget, and space requirements, you can make a better decision.
