Season of Purging Unwanted Items = Need for Roll Off Dumpster Rentals

Get waste management dumpster rental in Mobile, AL for spring cleaning

Experts suggest that we purge unwanted and unused items regularly but, even with the best of intentions, life gets busy and it’s easy to push this task to the bottom of the list. When that happens, we tend to rely upon spring cleaning to declutter – and, even then, it’s hard to know exactly how to get started! We often simply don’t know what to do with all the stuff we’ve accumulated over the years.
Fortunately, we found a great article to help you to decide what to keep and what to toss out (and, remember that donating to charities is also a great option!). Highlights include asking yourself questions such as:

  1. When is the last time I’ve used this item? This article suggests purging items that you haven’t used in five months, although that rule wouldn’t apply to items with a seasonal niche, such as Christmas decorations or clothing that you wear only during the hottest days of the year.
  2. If you live in a small dwelling, does the item serve more than one purpose? Multipurpose belongings are keepers when space is at a premium.
  3. Do you actually like the item?

Read the article for more insights – and, if you find yourself becoming sentimental about your belongings, here is excellent advice when it comes time to purge.
Once you’ve purged, Readers Digest provides 8 spring cleaning tips that help you get the work done faster – and remember that we’ve provided more spring cleaning tips for residences here.

Mobile Dumpster Rental Company Shares Construction News

Get construction dumpsters in Mobile, AL for your construction workers

So, what’s the white elephant in the room, something that construction professionals know about but are reluctant to discuss? Labor shortages!

But, this topic needs attention. A HomeAdvisor survey found that “93% of industry respondents said the labor shortage is preventing their businesses from growing over the next year.” Of course, if you work in the construction industry, you’re already aware of the current skilled labor shortage, and need to find solutions.

A Construction Dive article shares potential solutions, including marketing the industry to younger workers. “Say that it’s technology, that it could be as glamorous as a tech job. There are a million great stories of innovation in construction. (Homebuilders are) so busy marketing to buyers, and especially millennial buyers. They should be interested in getting millennials interested in (jobs in) housing.”

In the United States, the shift away from vocational training to college prep has created a challenge for the construction industry. But a renewed focus on local training programs could help, including pre-apprenticeship programs in secondary schools that will help prepare students for the workforce.

Collaboration is crucial. If “trade groups, construction companies, advocacy organizations, and all other stakeholders affected by the labor shortage” worked together, then this issue could be brought to legislators much more effectively.

Dumpster rental process for house flippers and renovators

Mobile Dumpster Rental Pros Share Info about Alabama Home Flipping

Commercial dumpsters in Mobile, AL for renovation projects
 

You may be a fan of one of the many house flipping shows on television these days: Flip This House, Flip That House, The Property Ladder and more. House flippers typically look at homes that, in their current condition, are not of interest to most buyers. Seeing their potential, the house flipper purchases the property, efficiently repairs the dwelling and then tries to sell it quickly. With profits, a flipper often buys the next property and repeats the process.
One home flipper, Michael Levine, moved to Alabama when home sales in the state had increased by 19 percent over a year’s time (July 2014-July 2015). In the 2015 article, Levine discussed renovating and how he had sold more than 30 homes in Alabama over the preceding 18 months. One of the more memorable ones: he sold a home to two sisters-in-laws before he even had time to put up a “for sale” sign.
When he began flipping homes in Alabama, he realized that many people wanted to buy a starter home, but not enough affordable choices existed. And, talk about a catch 22: often, a “minor issue like peeling paint or a tripping hazard keeps them from qualifying [for] . . . a federal home loan. They can’t fix the issue until they own it, and they can’t buy it because they can’t fix the issue.”
The need definitely exists for flippers. Even after Levine had renovated 30 homes in our state, he said that, if he’d had another 10 to 15 renovated homes, he could have sold them, too – all in 60 days.

Dumpster rental pros give back to the Mobile community

Mobile, Alabama Dumpster Rental Company Raises the Roof!

Dumpster rental company gives back to community

Two churches in Mobile are doing amazing work through their Raise the Roof Project collaboration: the Dauphin Way United Methodist Church and St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. Circle J-Roll Offs is collaborating with this home repair ministry in February 2016, providing the volunteers with the sizes of dumpsters they need to handle the waste from the roofing projects that they’ve taken on.
Here’s how it works. People involved in the ministry connect with people in need who have roofing problems and then pair them up with high school volunteers and their adult leaders. In the past, groups have:

  • Worked on homes over Christmas break, repairing a roof and ceilings, along with hole patching and painting
  • Volunteered to repair to work on multiple sites during an annual service day

Plus, Raise the Roof Project helped to bring motivational speaker Romal Tune to Mobile’s Davidson High School in March, 2015. “Romal’s message is one of hope and positive decision-making, which he shared with groups of middle & high school students, adults, and the children at Taylor Park Community Center.”
Here is a video showing just one of their projects: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbF1Iu-GuaA

Dumpster renting needs in Mobile, Alabama

Local Housing News from your Mobile Dumpster Rental Pros

Map for local dumpster rental in Mobile, AL

Mobile, Alabama has been in the news lately, including when a website called RoadSnacks used “data and science” to determine Alabama’s ten most exciting cities – and, yes. Mobile made the list! In housing news, new home closings went up 7.7% from September 2014 to September 2015. And, new homes means new construction – and new construction means additional need for dumpster renting.
As far as home remodeling news, if you don’t mind traveling to the northern part of the state in early March, you can get great home renovation tips from Brian Santos, author of best-selling home improvement books. He’ll be at the Building Home and Remodeling Show. Santos has provided his “Wizard Workshops” to more than one million people around the world – and has appeared on Good Morning, America; Today; Smart Solutions on HGTV; and TLC and the Discovery Channel. His clients include former quarterback Joe Montana, actress Doris Day and Star Wars creator, George Lucas.

Ready to Remodel? Here’s How to Rent a Dumpster

Once you become enthusiastic about a home remodeling project, it tends to grow in scope! So, here’s useful advice: don’t underestimate your plans. It’s easy to imagine that the smallest dumpster size is adequate for your project. Remodeling projects, though, have a way of expanding and the last thing you want is for waste and debris to pile up – and drywall, wood and carpeting can take up a whole lot of space.
Here are easy steps to getting the waste management plan you need in place:

  1. Contact us with the specifics of your project, including scope and timeline. Follow this rule of thumb for dumpster sizes: Ten yards of dumpster space equals about three pickup trucks’ worth of debris. A 20-yard container is a typical size for a home remodeling project, but share your plans with us and we can make recommendations.
  2. We’ll quote a simple 7-day flat rate with no hidden fees.
  3. We’ll drop off the containers you need within 24 hours, with dumpster sizes ranging from 10 to 40 yards.
  4. Your waste management dumpster rentals includes delivery, pickup and waste disposal.

Spring cleaning tips from your Mobile dumpster rental pros

Residential Dumpster Renting Tips for Spring Cleaning Projects

Get roll off dumpster service in Mobile, AL for spring cleaning

Spring cleaning used to be backbreaking work, mostly done by women. In the 19th century, people spent the winter cooped up in homes heated by wood or coal, both dirty fuels, and lit their hones with smoky kerosene or whale oil. Once spring broke women worked from dawn to dusk for a week, lugging heavy carpets out to beat with paddles; scrubbing upholstery with brushes; and cleaning ceilings, walls, baseboards, floors and windows. Water, of course, needed hauled in – from creeks in rural areas and from hydrants in more urban areas. Men joked that they wouldn’t have hot meals during that week (and, often, they didn’t!) because there was no time to pluck chickens or heat wood stoves.
Fortunately, spring cleaning isn’t that arduous in 2016. Here are tips for organizing your spring cleaning projects.

  1. Prioritize what’s most important in your decluttering. What’s in your basement or attic that’s already been there forever – and is likely to remain boxed up and unused? Do you need that swing set with the broken chains and broken post that nobody has used in years? How might that space be better used?
  2. Once you’ve gotten started, keep going! Are there any musty carpets that should be torn up and replaced? Any walls that could be removed to create airy open space?
    There’s no time like the present!
  3. Devise a waste management plan that’s right sized for your projects (knowing that they tend to grow!). If you’re just throwing away expired food, broken cookware, and decluttering your junk drawers, regular trash pickup is probably just fine. But, as that momentum builds, consider a portable dumpster rental. Dumpster sizes start at 10 yards, with 20-yarders being the most popular dumpster sizes for residential projects.

Mobile Construction Dumpster Rental Pros Share Office Trends

Get roll off container prices in Mobile, AL for your projects

We’ve looked around the web to see what office construction and design trends are predicted for 2016. If you’re already involved in office builds or remodels, then these trends aren’t likely to surprise you. They include:

  • Clearer, more organized looks; people have been surrounded by increasing numbers of cables and wires in their smart-enabled offices – and are ready to have them hidden from sight
  • Bringing nature indoors; when cooped up all day, people miss the outdoors, so expect customers to request “vertical gardens, exposed concrete flooring, and reclaimed wood paneling.”
  • Collaboration is in! Idea sharing is key to today’s business climate, so more companies are wanting open and comfortable lounge areas; this may mean tearing down walls of smaller office spaces or building additions
  • Privacy! Ironically, all of this open collaboration space means that some people are looking for private spaces when too much openness gets overwhelming
  • Continuation of eco-friendly business designs; this can include external frames and the use of solar panels, among other features.

Construction Trends by Mobile Dumpster Rental Pros: Smarter, Taller and Healthier

Commercial dumpster rental for Mobile, AL

The construction industry continues to evolve as technologies do and a look at 2015 construction trends indicates that we should expect to see smarter, taller and healthier builds into 2016 and beyond. Here are just some examples:

  • Wearables! On construction sites, you’ll see more smart watches, with workers perhaps even using them to log on to the time clock. Meanwhile, supervisors can send out safety tips. On the field, workers can make phone calls from their watches and their health can be monitored, including blood pressure and heart rate. Wearables won’t just be on wrists, either, with smart hard hats in prototype stages.
  • Look up to the sky! Buildings are getting taller, in part because of the scarcity of valuable ground real estate, especially in urban areas. According to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, more tall buildings were built in 2014 than ever before: 97 buildings were completed at heights of 656 feet or more. In 2015, 175 builders of that height were expected to be completed – almost doubling the record set in 2014.
  • Health is a focus, with architects and developers continuing to find ways to construct healthier buildings with improved indoor air quality, more natural light and building materials without volatile organic compounds.

Building demand shifts; insights from dumpster rental pros

Mobile Dumpster Renting Company Monitors Shifts in Construction Demand

Roll off dumpster rental in Mobile, AL is in demand

As Baby Boomers age, housing needs change and health care demands increase – and both of those trends affect the construction industry. We were curious, and took a look around the web to see what construction industry sectors were expected to be hot in 2016. According to PDH Contractors, industry sectors listed as most active include:

  • Multifamily dwellings and health care facilities (both partially because of the aging Baby Boomer generation)
  • Office interior remodeling
  • Data centers (as tech continues to drive innovation)
  • Education facilities
  • Industrial buildings such as warehouses

Another site also shared the ramifications of increasing numbers of Baby Boomers retiring. Not surprisingly, new senior communities and centers are cropping up around the United States. To stay competitive, already-existing communities and centers are remodeling, which ranges from the addition of amenities to even larger renovations.
There’s good news if you specialize in restaurant renovation and construction. Local and regional companies are expected to expand, geographically speaking, as they grow their brand. Other brands are predicted to branch out further in the entertainment and food service sectors.

Dumpster rental team looks into the future

Mobile Dumpster Rental Pros Review Architect Predictions

Local dumpster rental Mobile, AL

As architect designs evolve and change, so do the demands upon the construction industry – so we checked out what the American Institute of Architects expects to see over the next decade:

  • more use of natural lighting
  • increased use of lighting systems that use automated controls and motion sensor activation
  • greater use of new glass and glazing techniques
  • more construction companies using lean practices to make building even more efficient
  • greater momentum of green building
  • 3-D laser scanning technology more often in modeling
  • gaming engines used to “create more realistic models in which owners and contractors can often make real-time changes, eliminating confusion and saving time”
  • increased use of integrated project delivery (IPD)

In IPD, major stakeholders (owner, general contractor, architect, major subcontractors and suppliers) agree upon mutually acceptable project goals, share risks and responsibilities, and more. The goal is to “speed up completion, control project costs and reduce changes.”
