construction dumpster

[bbriscoe]

I want to rent a dumpster to tear off my old roof - anyone know who to call and what they might charge?

Trying to think of the place I ride by every day on SW Blvd.  I think it's American Waste.  Funny when you ride or drive by a place everyday it's "just there". []

They have quite a few roll-off dumpsters on their lot and they don't look all beat up.  Other than that try the yellow pages.

I used American Waste about 6yrs ago, but don't remember the price. It seems like it was around $150 for two loads. They came and emptied it once! They backed down the drive and put it right by the garage!

RecycMike could probably give a good referral!

Yellow Book listings

Going rate, based on what I'm paying at our construction site, is about $200 per dumpster.

There are a number of local companies that can provide a roll-off dumpster.

I do or have done business with American Waste, National Waste, Allied Waste, Gator containers, Smithey Environmental, Tulsa Ash Haulers and Waste Management.

The prices have gone up and now there is a state solid waste fee added per ton. I would shop around and expect to pay between 250 and 350 dollars per dumpster load.

I would also make sure and secure it so your neighbors don't fill it with trash.

Wouldn't it would be great if Tulsa had a recycling program similar to Austin
Why aren't we doing this?

American Waste is a local company with their own facilities.  I have done business with them and recommend them highly.  

I had some bad experiences with Allied Waste, they were bought by some larger conglomerate and things went south.  

Just call American Waste and get a rate.  I'd imagine the rates are closer to $140 per pickup, but that's a shot in the dark.  Fuel and the closure of the trash to energy plant have not been good to the industry

[edit]I called American Waste:

30 Yard Roll-Off
in Tulsa
Roofing material (charged by weight, so this gives a decent estimate)
One week

= about $375.  

If you need it longer than 1 week it's $2 per day.  Price could go up or down a little depending on weight.  Roofing material makes for heavy loads and that's what the estimate is on.

Speaking of recycling wood

Thanks for the 'opening' and the 'clearance' to land AA!
