About 123 nights a year drop to 32°F or below in Lawrence. Wet debris can freeze to the container walls in winter, which makes dumping harder, so keep the load covered and dry.

Where space is tight, as in much of Lawrence, a 10 or 15 yard container is easier to place in a lot or on the street. Whole-house cleanouts and big remodels still call for a 20.
