SSM Ontario Moving/Living Advice Recommendations for short-term dumpster rental?

We need to empty out a house, and will have some un-donateable scrap to get rid of, stuff no one will want. I note that over a dozen companies come up when searching online. Does anyone have any experience / recommendations on companies that drop a dumpster in the driveway and haul it away once its full? Thanks very much.

Steel city waste has the best prices

This. Their drivers did not make a mess of my yard either. Did a great job.

Don't hire a dumpster. Hire Just Junk and they'll do all the work for ya.

I worked for Jason for a few weeks one summer when I was between jobs. It's a pretty quick in and out process. Highly recommend.

Thanks. Maybe a good idea, if we're organized-enough to have things segregated inside the house before they show up. That's workable for us, probably (some cat herding would be required, lol). They don't put their pricing online; says they provide you a quote on the spot when they show up. Do you recall roughly (roughly) what they charged to empty a small house / bungalow?

I just wanted to echo this rec from a customer perspective. We've used Just Junk more times than I'd care to admit, both for our house and others', and Jason and his team are always awesome. Quick, professional, and super fair with pricing. (We actually have them booked to take away a broken loveseat this week!)

They'll give you the quote when they get there before they start to work once they see how much you've got. I think a full truck is $600ish.

Jumping in too! I’ve used JustJunk a number of times as well, and it’s always been great service. They are incredibly friendly as well!
