Guess We’re Pretty Good, Eh?

October 30th, 2008 by The bookadumpster.com USA Dumpster Rental Team

We are so happy to hear when our customers have such a positive experience when using our website to rent a dumpster.  Here are a couple that have been received in just the past few weeks:

“I have used your website a couple of times now. I thought the first time was very easy but perhaps I just got lucky! (couldn’t quite believe it to be honest). However, just used this great service again and I just have to say your site is intuitive, visually clean i.e. devoid of clutter or extraneous rubbish (excuse the pun). The ordering process is simplified without collecting unnecessary data, which I often resent. Then after a short wait (also notified on your site with care) a simple confirmation with all the information needed, prepared as an invoice ready to print to boot! Just fab - Well done!” - Amanda

“Hi. We used your service to book a bin… Absolutely fantastic serviceno hassles… drop off and pickup all smooth…would highly recommend your services…thanks so much for making our clean out go smoothly! Thanks again” - Dave and Viv

So if you looking to rent a dumpster and are searching the web for a site to offer you great customer service, professional delivery and removal of the dumpster, and the lowest prices in town, then have a look at www.bookadumpster.com where you can get an instant quote and schedule your dumpster rental securely online!

Zero Waste California!

October 23rd, 2008 by The bookadumpster.com USA Dumpster Rental Team

“Zero Waste California” is an initiative supported by the CA Government. They agree that California is a state rich in natural resources and those resources need to be protected. In that effort, Zero Waste California stretches beyond previously imagined goals. It is the ultimate in environmental stewardship—and a goal we can all work together to accomplish.

How can we zero our waste? Here are some options to promote recycling in CA, check them out before you book your dumpster at www.bookadumpster.com

CalMAX…a simple idea “One business’s trash is another business’s treasure.” Businesses, schools, and nonprofits can utilize CalMAX to search for available and wanted materials. An online materials exchange service designed to help businesses, organizations, local governments, industry, schools, and individuals find markets for non-hazardous materials that may otherwise be discarded.

The California Take-It-Back Partnership is collaboration between government and business to provide convenient locations for consumers to dispose of everyday items banned from the trash such as used batteries, fluorescent lamps, and electronic devices. To know where to go to drop off banned items please visit www.earth911.org

Recycle Plastic Grocery Bags - It will now be easier for consumers to recycle their plastic grocery bags. Most local grocery stores will be offering in-store recycling bins and reusable bags for purchase.

The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency’s website lets you calculate your “carbon footprint,” or personal/family greenhouse gas emissions. You can also find ways to lower your emissions while reducing your energy and waste disposal costs.

What To Do With E Waste!

October 9th, 2008 by The bookadumpster.com USA Dumpster Rental Team

What is E WASTE?
E Waste (aka. Electronic Waste) consists of discarded computers, televisions, cell phones, fax machines, stereos and other electronic equipment. Monitors and televisions cannot be put into landfills because of their lead content. Other electronic equipment also contains heavy metals including mercury, arsenic, cadmium, among others. Computers under five years old and other working electronics can generally be reused, while older computers and broken electronics are generally recycled.

How To Dispose?
These goods cannot be taken to landfill so you aren’t able to put these things into a roll off or dumpster, instead take to a drop off location such as:

Goodwill Drop Off:
This is a free of charge service, Usable electronics will be data cleansed, refurbished and loaded with a legal operating system for resale in Goodwill stores. Older electronics will be de-manufactured and recycled.

St. Vincent de Paul:
Accepts almost all electronics, working or not, there is usually no charge. Does not accept small electronics such as cooking items and lamps.

Other Thrift Shops and Charitable Organizations:
These organizations will accept computers that are less than 5 years old and in good condition. Many will also take other electronics in good working condition. Be sure to call before taking items in because electronics acceptance policies often change.

Transfer Stations:
Most accept electronics for recycling. None of the electronics brought to transfer stations are refurbished for reuse –all are de-manufactured and recycled. Fees may be charged for monitors and televisions. The fee depends upon size and type of waste product.

Keeping safe…while dumpster diving

Useful Equipment:
Flashlight
First Aid Kit
Sturdy gloves and shoes
Long pants and a long sleeved top
Plastic bags

Dumpster divers who action the following will find it is to their benefit:

• If someone asks you to leave, do so, avoid confrontation
• Do not enter a dumpster while haulers are working in the area, if a truck approaches get out of the dumpster immediately
• Never access a dumpster that displays a “No Trespass” sign
• Beware of dumpster lids closing on you
• Avoid expired food, may contain food borne illnesses which could be fatal
• Never enter a dumpster that is attached to a compactor
• Keep your tetanus shots up to date
• Clean yourself thoroughly to get rid of germs once you are done

Remember to remove jewelry and empty your pockets before you get in, you don’t want to lose anything to the next diver !

Dumpster Diving!

September 25th, 2008 by The bookadumpster.com USA Dumpster Rental Team

Looking at another man’s trash as your treasure…thinking about trying your hand at Dumpster Diving?

Here at bookadumpster.com we do not encourage dumpster diving, but we do like the fact that it keeps things out of the landfills… we have prepared some notes:

Divers find that the best time to seek out treasure is late at night or early in the morning before the haulers have picked up. Mondays are good as stores often rid themselves of items after the weekends

• Knowledge of the law is beneficial; in some jurisdictions dumpster divers are breaking the law and can be charged with theft

Divers seek out hot spots depending on the type of treasure they are interested in (Universities are good after graduation!). Online forums and local clubs are available to join to network with other divers

• Shop keepers and homeowners are not always impressed with dumpster divers so avoiding confrontation is key. Avoiding sharp objects and general safely is also fairly necessary! Dive with a buddy

Divers worried about safety may park their car in front of the dumpster so the hauler is unable to dump it

Divers should only take what they realistically want, and dispose of unusable items responsibly, especially electronic waste

• Thorough cleaning using a mild bleach and water is very highly recommended for any objects found by the divers

Divers should always leave an area they have been using clean or cleaner than when they found it, cleaning up after themselves avoids dumpster diving getting a bad name

Check back soon for warnings and tips that may be relevant to Dumpster Divers safety….
