Dumpster Rentals Scranton, PA

For large construction projects, a dumpster is necessary. These projects create far more waste than what a typical garbage bin is equipped to handle and produce construction waste that isn't handled by municipal waste management services. Materials like lumber, drywall, roofing, and flooring cannot be disposed of through regular garbage collection and must be handled through private companies like Sourgum. Our construction dumpster rentals make it easy to keep projects moving along with a tidy and safe job site.

No one wants a project to be delayed due to additional cleaning time, or worse, a debris-related injury. Having a construction dumpster on hand helps avoid these worst-case scenarios by making maintaining a clutter-free job site easy. To learn more about commercial projects, visit our construction dumpster page.

Projects at residential sites also need to keep the mess contained so that the homeowners can enjoy their living space. Having a dumpster ready on site is the best way to keep the clutter contained and allow homeowners to enjoy their houses. Sourgum makes it easy to keep your project on schedule by hauling away your debris at a moment's notice.

Projects that work with a lot of concrete or other heavy materials like stone, bricks, and asphalt need specialty dumpsters. These dense materials quickly surpass the weight limit of typical construction dumpsters. Concrete dumpsters are equipped to handle the extra weight and make it easy to move swiftly through demolition. These dumpsters work well for driveway renovations, slab removals, masonry work, and retaining wall demolition. As with all of our dumpsters, our prices are transparent, with no hidden fees or surprises on your final bill.
