In the animated movie “Over the Hedge” the animals of the forest do not understand why their food source has dried up, until it is explained to them by RJ, the wily raccoon.

“Half of the forest is gone,” he explains. But there is food and possibility within the suburb that has been built on the other side of the hedge.

American audiences had no trouble seeing the raccoon as a wily, resistance-leading mastermind, able to earn a living out of our trash cans. This is because we see raccoons doing seemingly impossible things every day in our back alleys, side yards, sewers, and trash cans in order to make their living in our neighborhoods.

Trash pandas unite!

Raccoons have proven to be very resilient as American suburbs have spread. With their amazing ability to climb trees, trash cans, and even houses, they can run and hide in places where many people might not even think to look.

Further, with their problem-solving abilities, raccoons have figured out that the average American household sets out dinner in one form or another every night. There really is not a food shortage if you can open the lid to every trash can in town!

 

How do they do it?

Raccoons have an impressive intellect. Like many animals, they can remember productive food sources for a long time, with even second generations returning to productive dumpsters.

Further, they are nimble and mobile. This means that they can cover a wide range of ground in just a few hours every night. In their territory, they can run a first scan just by sniffing around dozens or hundreds of trash cans. Then they can use their climbing ability and their amazingly nimble fingers to open the lids on most trash cans.

Finally, they are great problem solvers. If they didn’t get the can open from the top, maybe they should just knock it over and watch the lid roll off? Or should they stand on the recycling bin while they pry your bungee cord off the lid of your trash can, then reach down inside?

They even use shelves in the storm drain as permanent homes, safer than the average tree in the woods, as it is protected from all but the most severe weather. Every way they scrounge food and survive in the cities, the raccoons that emerge from the storm drains in your neighborhood demonstrate that they have adapted to our environment.

Everywhere that big work is happening, dumpster rentals are needed.

That includes the city of Springboro.

Fortunately Springboro residents have lots of choices for where to go to rent the dumpster they need to take on the work that needs to get done.

Even more fortunately, they have close, local access to Big Daddy Dumpsters.

This southwest Ohio company has been renting dumpsters of multiple sizes to construction companies, homeowners, and industries for two decades, and is ready to meet the need of the residents of Springboro, Ohio.

What dumpster does your project need?

There are just a few questions you need to answer before renting your dumpster. You can answer them yourself, or call one of our helpful and experienced assistants to walk you through the questions.

You want to make sure you get the right dumpster for your needs.

Do you have more trash and debris than you can put at the curbside?

Do you want all of the trash and the project to be done on or by a certain date?

Do you want to avoid the expense and effort of driving it all to a dump site yourself?

If your answer to one or more of these questions is “yes,” and you live in the Springoro / Greater Dayton / Greater Cincinnati area, then Big Daddy Dumpsters has a solution for you.

Springboro trash panda loves Big Daddy Dumpsters.

What size dumpster do I need?

The most important consideration for your project has to do with the amount of debris you need safely hauled away.

Here’s a quick guide we offer to get you started thinking about your project:

​​20-Cubic-Yard Container – Roofing projects, medium sized remodels, spring cleaning.

15-Cubic-Yard Container – Moving and downsizing, spring cleaning, and small remodels.

10-Cubic-Yard Container – Concrete, asphalt, brick, tile, dirt, sand and small remodel projects.

Of course, all of these measurements are dependent on many variables. Some roofs are bigger than others, for instance, just as some “small” remodel projects are smaller than others.

Prepare for your call by having measurements ready based on the drawings or county auditor’s report about your space. One company’s small project is another homeowner’s major remodel!

Springboro, let our professional drivers deliver the right-sized dumpster to your location, then let them take it away at the time and date we agreed upon.

A clean work site means happy neighbors!

Does your fourth of July party require a dumpster?

The short answer to this question is, probably not. But the longer answer might surprise you.

Because with so many people moving into new homes oh, and neighborhoods coming together in new ways as we enjoy our post vaccination freedom oh, this might be the summer of hot dogs and helping out.

This could be the summer where your long Fourth of July Weekend includes a day of community cleanup in addition to the grilling and community-building in the backyards and cul-de-sacs of your neighborhood.

Nothing brings people together like … a dumpster?

Companies and individuals that have rented dumpsters in the past will tell you they are a huge draw.  They’re like a magnet to everyone in the neighborhood to sneak over and throw in an old paver, drop in a bag lunch, or to sneak over in the evening and try and put something in that really should be taken to a recycling center.

Instead of playing defense with your dumpster, maybe this year you can go on offense.

Throw a summer cleaning party.

You rent the dumpster. You take on a big project you have been meaning to get to. And then you invite your neighbors to do the same.

Suddenly there is space for the debris from your work, and there is a reason for the dumpster as your neighbors pile in their own needs – for a price, of course.

Will you charge them a percentage? Based on weight?

Or will you take the high road and encourage them to contribute for only a cold beer, a met, or maybe a cheeseburger with bacon?

It’s your decision.
