How to Load a Dumpster Safely and Efficiently

Loading tips that save space and avoid overweight fees.

Loading tips that save space and avoid overweight fees. Here is what our Ventura County team tells customers every day.

Use the door

Walk heavy items in through the rear door rather than lifting them over the wall.

Distribute weight

Spread heavy materials evenly across the floor of the container.

Fill gaps

Use small debris to fill voids around larger items.

Respect the fill line

Nothing may stick out above the top of the walls; overfilled containers cannot be legally transported.
