Keeping your job site clean isn’t just about appearances — it’s about safety, efficiency, and professionalism. Whether you’re building a new home, renovating a commercial space, or managing a large-scale construction project, a well-organized cleanup strategy can save you time, money, and headaches. At You Junk It… I Dump It, we help Edmonton contractors streamline debris removal so you can focus on the work that matters most.

Start With the Right Bin Size

One of the easiest ways to improve job site cleanup is to choose a bin that fits your project’s needs. Renting the right size means fewer trips, better waste management, and a cleaner workspace. We offer a variety of options, including:

• 12 Cubic Yard Bin – Great for small renovations and light construction debris.
• 15 Cubic Yard Bin – Ideal for medium-sized projects and mixed waste.
• 20 Cubic Yard Bin – Perfect for larger demolition work and bulky materials.
• 25 Cubic Yard Bin – Designed for major construction sites with heavy debris.
• 30 Cubic Yard Bin – Best for the biggest jobs and maximum cleanup capacity.

Choosing the correct size upfront keeps your site organized and eliminates costly delays.

Keep Waste Sorted

Mixing all materials into one pile may seem faster, but it can cause problems when it comes to disposal and recycling. Separate wood, metal, drywall, and general waste into designated areas or bins. This not only keeps the site safer but can also help you meet environmental compliance requirements.

Schedule Regular Pickups

Don’t wait until your bin is overflowing to schedule removal. A full bin can create hazards, slow down work, and lead to disposal delays. Setting up a consistent pickup schedule ensures your crew always has space for waste, keeping the workflow smooth from start to finish.

Maintain a Clear Path for Disposal

Position your junk bin in a spot that’s easily accessible to all crew members. Avoid blocking it with parked vehicles, equipment, or materials. A clear path to the bin means fewer time-wasting detours and safer waste handling.

Work With a Local Partner You Can Trust

Hiring a reliable, local junk bin rental company means you’ll get timely deliveries, prompt pickups, and bins that are in great condition. At You Junk It… I Dump It, we’ve built strong relationships with Edmonton contractors by providing flexible rental periods, multiple bin sizes, and dependable service you can count on.

Ah, July in Edmonton. The sun is out, the burgers are sizzling, and your garage still looks like a scene from a post-apocalyptic hoarder documentary.

Don’t worry—we’re not here to judge. We’re here to help. Whether you’re finally tackling that backyard reno, clearing out your shed full of “future projects,” or just need to make room for the new patio furniture that totally wasn’t an impulse buy… we’ve got the bin for you.

Why July is the Perfect Time to Junk It

• Because your neighbours are outside now, and they can see the chaos.
  Let’s not pretend that pile of broken chairs, wet cardboard, and suspiciously sharp mystery metal isn’t visible from space.
• Renovations are heating up.
  Contractors, we see you sweating through deadlines. Don’t let trash slow you down—book a bin that actually shows up on time.
• You bought a new smoker, and now the old barbecue is awkwardly staring at you.
  Let it go. We’ll take it away quietly and respectfully.

Choose Your Fighter (Bin Edition)

• 12-yard bin – For weekend warriors, yard cleanup champions, and people finally dealing with “that corner.”
• 20-yard bin – Great for small renos or when “just a few things” turns into “how did we have this much junk?”
• 30-yard bin – For the serious stuff: full home cleanouts, contractor work, or if you’re Marie Kondo-ing your entire life.

You can check out all our bin sizes here. Don’t overthink it—we’ll help you pick the right one.

Long Weekend Coming Up? So Is the Trash Tsunami.

Let’s be real: you know you’re going to try to squeeze a cleanup in between BBQs and K-Days. And guess what? Everyone else has that same idea. Book now or risk missing your one productive weekend of the year.

At You Junk It… I Dump It, we know a thing or two about hauling away the mess—and this month, we’ve got our eyes set on something a little different: the Florida Panthers.

That’s right. We’re not just Edmonton’s go-to team for junk bin rentals—we’re also huge Oilers fans. And with the Stanley Cup Finals heating up, it’s time for our boys in blue and orange to clean house.

The Panthers may have clawed their way into the Finals, but this is our year. After a rollercoaster of a season and a playoff run full of heart, grit, and McDavid magic, the Oilers are more than ready to dump the competition. Florida, meet your match.

Just like we do for homeowners and contractors across Edmonton, the Oilers are about to do a little spring cleaning—Panthers, your junk day has arrived.

So while we’re out here clearing renovation debris, construction scraps, and garage clutter, the Oilers are doing the same with power plays and penalty kills. Let’s make some space on that Cup shelf—because the Stanley Cup is headed back north where it belongs.

Need to tackle a junk job of your own before puck drop? We’ve got you covered with:

• Residential bin rentals for your home cleanout
• Commercial dumpster services for Edmonton contractors
• Bin sizes for every project

This June, let’s cheer loud, clean hard, and remind the league who runs the rink—and the junk yard.

Go Oilers Go!

Have questions? Call us at 780-278-4010 or email todd@youjunkit.ca to book your bin and join us in sweeping the Panthers off the ice.

Home renovations are exciting. Whether you’re upgrading your kitchen, finishing the basement, or finally tackling that bathroom remodel, it feels good to improve your space. But while you’re picking tiles and choosing paint, there’s one critical piece that often gets overlooked—waste disposal.

In Edmonton, home renovation projects can generate more junk than you think. Drywall scraps, broken tiles, old cabinets, wood, insulation, packaging materials—the pile adds up fast. And tossing it all into black bags for curb pickup? That’s not only inefficient but often not allowed. That’s where a junk bin rental comes in.

Why Rent a Junk Bin During Renovations?

Simple: it makes your life easier. Instead of letting debris pile up in your yard or garage, a bin gives you a single, secure place to toss everything. No trips to the dump. No waiting for city bulk pickup days. Just toss it in, and let a local bin rental company handle the rest.

It also keeps your worksite safer and cleaner. Clutter can slow down progress and even pose a risk to you or your contractors. With a bin on-site, you’re keeping the area clear and organized—something every tradesperson will thank you for.

What Size Bin Do You Need for a Renovation Project?

It depends on your project size. At You Junk It I Dump It, we offer bins from 12 to 30 cubic yards:

• 12-yard bin – Great for smaller renos like a bathroom or single room
• 15-yard bin – Ideal for small kitchens, flooring, or medium cleanouts
• 20-yard bin – A solid choice for larger renovations or multiple-room jobs
• 25-yard bin – Perfect for full-home renos or major junk removal
• 30-yard bin – Best for heavy-duty projects, demolitions, or estate cleanouts

Each bin is driveway-friendly and delivered right to your home. Just tell us where to drop it, and we’ll take care of the rest.

What Can You Throw In?

Our bins are suitable for most renovation waste: wood, drywall, tiles, flooring, old furniture, and even some appliances. We’ll also advise you on items that aren’t allowed, like hazardous materials or large volumes of concrete, so you avoid any extra fees.
