Philadelphia PA Dumpster Rentals

In Philadelphia, sanitation services will not collect any appliances and construction materials such as stone, concrete, drywall, ceramics, metal, or earth. These items must be disposed of by private companies such as Sourgum Waste. Our construction and concrete dumpsters are the perfect way to get rid of the debris and waste that comes from commercial and residential projects.

Renting a roll-off dumpster is an essential part of any renovation or cleanup project, and placing your order ahead of time saves hassle and stress. Nothing slows a project down like excess waste that gets in your way and clogs up the job site. At residential sites, excess debris clogs the living space and makes clients feel as though they’re living in a construction zone, not their home. Know ahead of time that you have a designated and contained space for waste so you’re able to move through your project efficiently. We’ve got the dumpster and disposal covered, so you can focus on getting the job done right. To learn more about commercial projects, visit our construction dumpster rental page.

For homeowners working on a project, don’t let dumpster rental be the last task on your list! Living through a cleanup or renovation is stressful enough, and the last thing you want to worry about is large amounts of waste and debris cluttering up your house and your yard. Sourgum Waste makes it easy to keep your project tidy and moving along with all the debris and waste piled in one contained space, ready to haul away.

Philadelphia PA Recycling Service

Philadelphia encourages its residents to recycle as much as possible to reduce waste with bi-weekly curbside pickup. Your scheduled disposal service is determined by your address and can be found on the City of Philadelphia website. Also listed on this site are the acceptable and unacceptable recyclables. Read through this list as well as the preferred disposal method for each recyclable. Residents must sort their own recyclables from garbage, use a designated recycling bin, and place excess cardboard next to the bin.

Bulk Items

Philadelphia PA has strict rules for its bulk garbage collection. The city offers bulk curbside pickup for select items such as tree branches cut to size and compactable furniture. Leaves are collected seasonally but can be dropped off at designated disposal sites at any time throughout the year. Bulk disposal can be confusing, and the last thing you want is to haul a big item to the curb only to find out it can’t be disposed of.
