Newark dumpster planning notes
What Newark's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
Older housing stock
Before 1980 is when 66% of Newark's homes went up. Gutting an older kitchen or bath usually means plaster walls, old tile and heavy fixtures, so a 15 or 20 yard with the right weight allowance is safer than the smallest size.

36% of homes in Newark 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.
