i totally agree with you on this one, in urban areas dumpsters are very much required at the time of any kind of construction work. Also dumpster services are available for a wide range of other waste removal requirements also like hazardous waste removal etc.

I stumbled upon your blog while scouting information regarding trash removal. Anyway, it's really a brilliant idea to promote awareness through community education and sanitation counseling among its members. In this way, people wouldn't have to get seriously sick from badly managed waste problems.
ReplyDeleteDumpsters should be prominent in areas that have a lack of city or government interference with life style and the way life is generally lived. At these areas though, since there aren't that many utilities that are very expensive for those whom order them.
