    Mike and Dumpster Dudez were responsive and accommodating. We rented two dumpsters with them in connection with both preparing our house to be listed for sale and then once we were moving. Despite icy conditions, they delivered the first dumpster on time. For the second rental, we ended up needing it moved from our old house to our new house. They not only did it, but with minimal fuss or expense.

    So easy and convenient. Book online, they drop it off and pick it up when you're done. Price includes everything - unless you go over or put things in there that you shouldn't. Will definitely be using again when our house sells and we can get rid of the rest. We got the 15 yard dumpster and probably could have filled the 20.
