Family Prep
Before the family arrives, you may take a few days to clean out the home and get everything ready for the holidays. As you prepare a guest room, you may consider throwing out old blankets, clothes, and unneeded furniture to help clear up some space.
In main rooms, you may get rid of older carpets or clutter that fills up the home. With a dumpster rental, you have the ease and ability to just toss out the garbage and get back to cleaning quickly.
As you prepare for all types of big meals and festivities, you may also decide to clean out your refrigerator, pantry, or cabinets to get rid of old food and expired canned goods. The cleared out space will help make room for all the food items you need, and using a dumpster will remove the worry of filling up your garbage can before collecting day.
Everyday Trash
When guests stay at your home, the amount of trash you have may also accumulate quicker than usual. If you have three or four guests, you could double or triple the trash output in your home. If you have a relative who has a young baby, then there may a large increase in the diaper waste for the home.
Instead of making trips to a dump, or over-filling your trash bins, a dumpster provides an easy way to dispose of items. Simply place bags of trash in the dumpster through the duration of the guest stay at your home.
The process not only makes the trash management easier, but you save a lot of time by just tossing the trash in the dumpster instead of making trips to a dump.
Meal Waste
When people have guests over for the holidays, you typically focus a good amount of the time on preparing and serving large meals. After each meal, there is a lot of waste which may include turkey bones, ham bones, or leftovers no one wants to eat.
A dumpster makes the disposal of the food items easy, especially as all the food quickly piles up. By throwing out the food waste directly in the dumpster, you can avoid the odors in your home and keep kitchens clean throughout the whole time a guest stays.
A dumpster is also ideal for any extra meal prep items. For example, you may have purchased one-time use aluminum pans to serve meat or desserts. You have the option to throw the pans directly in the dumpster and save time from breaking down items and fitting them into a trash bag.
You can toss other meal extras like tablecloths or disposable dishware right into your dumpster as well.
Holiday Clean-Up
A dumpster rental will really help once guests have gone back home and the time comes for some holiday clean-up. With holiday cleaning, you have the ability to use the dumpster for Christmas trees, unneeded holiday decorations, and any items from your home that have been broken during the guest stay.
For example, a guest may have dropped a plate or chipped a cup. Simply toss those items right in the dumpster to help make the clean-up a breeze. By getting a bulk of the clean-up out of the way and removing clutter, the whole process will be a lot easier the next time holidays roll around.
