Mountain View dumpster planning notes
What Mountain View's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
A lot of pre-1980 housing
With 60% of homes built before 1980, Mountain View has plenty of older houses. Debris from older homes runs heavy (plaster, lath, tile, cast iron), so tell us what's coming out and we'll match the weight allowance.

49% of homes in Mountain View are in buildings with five or more units. Without a private driveway, a dumpster usually goes in a parking lot with the property manager's OK, or on the street with a city permit.
