Dump Hidden Fees With Osteen’ Load And Go!


Imagine this: You’re planning a major cleanout and, after careful consideration, you decide to rent a dumpster to handle the disposal. You find what seems to be an affordable option, factor it into your budget and then get to work. Days pass, and as you near the end of your rental period, you’re hit with a surprise — costly charges that weren’t disclosed at the outset. In other words, you’ve been struck by hidden fees! What was supposed to be a straightforward, budget-friendly solution has now turned into a costly mistake.


When renting a dumpster, hidden fees can take a big bite out of your budget. At Osteen’s Load and Go, we believe in fully transparent pricing, which is why we don't tack on any hidden fees in our dumpster rental services. Here are just a few fees other companies might try to sneak onto your bill after they’ve quoted you a price.


Delivery Fees

Delivery fees cover the cost of dropping off the dumpster at your location. These fees can vary depending on the distance and accessibility of your property. It's important to ask about any delivery fees up front to avoid any unexpected charges.


Pickup Fees

Pickup fees may apply when the rental period ends and the dumpster is retrieved. They can sometimes catch you off guard if they’re not clearly outlined in the rental agreement, and they can vary based on the distance traveled for pickup or the time of day the service is performed. Additionally, if your project takes longer than expected and you need to extend your rental period, you might be charged extra for late pickups. Always clarify the pickup terms and fees before committing to a rental agreement.


Dump Fees

Dump fees are charges imposed by facilities for accepting waste. These fees can vary based on the type and weight of the materials being disposed of. To prevent surprises, it's essential to always ask if dump fees are included in the rental price.


Excess Weight Charges

If you exceed the weight limit specified in your rental agreement, you may incur additional charges. These charges can add up quickly, especially if you’re disposing of heavy materials like construction debris or large household items. Always take the time to understand the weight restrictions and potential overage fees before renting a dumpster. 


Relocation Fees

In some cases, you may need to relocate the dumpster during your rental period. A fee may be charged for this service, adding to your overall cost. The fees can vary based on the distance the dumpster needs to be moved and the complexity of the relocation — and they can throw a wrench in your budget if not disclosed initially. 


Service Fees

Service fees can encompass a range of additional charges, such as administrative fees or extra charges for specific services, like same-day delivery. These fees can vary widely between companies, so it’s essential to ask for a detailed breakdown of any service fees you may be charged up front. 


Fast, Fair, Family Owned

When renting a dumpster for your cleanout project, it's important to consider all potential fees to ensure you’re getting the best value. With Osteen's Load and Go, you can trust that the price you see is the price you pay, with no hidden fees to surprise you at the end of your rental period.

4 Dumpster Rental Mistakes to Avoid

Image
Whether you're renting a dumpster as a homeowner or for commercial use, sometimes things can go wrong. In fact, you may be surprised by the variety of issues that can occur during the rental process. Here are a few common mishaps and how renting with Osteen’s can help you avoid them. 1. Choosing the wrong size.  Renting a dumpster that's too small can result in needing a second dumpster, while too large a dumpster wastes money. Osteen’s Load and Go can help you assess your needs so you can right-size your rental. For example, if you know you’re going to be disposing of larger furnishings, such as sofas or sectionals, then a 16-yard dumpster is a good fit for those types of items. Or if you’re looking to remove lots of smaller items from a garage, a 12-yard dumpster is usually suitable for a typical cleanout. 2. Failing to protect the driveway.  If you request placing the rental on a driveway, we always protect it with wood so that it never makes direct contact with the surface
