What to know about Baton Rouge dumpster jobs
What Baton Rouge's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
A lot of pre-1980 housing
58% of homes in Baton Rouge were built before 1980. Remodels and cleanouts in older homes often turn up plaster, lath, cast-iron fixtures and layers of old flooring. Those are heavy, so mention them when you call: they count against the weight allowance.

Buildings with five or more units hold 31% of Baton Rouge's homes. If you don't have a driveway, a smaller 10 or 15 yard container is easier to fit in a lot or on the street.

Baton Rouge averages about 62 inches of precipitation a year. Rain-soaked debris weighs more, so tarp the dumpster when you're not loading it and plan roof tear-offs around dry days.
