Shreveport dumpster planning notes
What Shreveport's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
Older homes
With 65% of homes built before 1980, Shreveport 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.

Detached houses make up 67% of Shreveport's homes. That usually means driveway placement and no street permit; just check the driveway is long enough and clear of low branches and wires.

Shreveport averages about 51 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.
