Planning a dumpster in Union
What Union's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
Older housing stock
79% of homes in Union 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.

Union averages about 47 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.

Most driveway drops don't need a permit. If the container has to sit on a public street or sidewalk, contact the Town of Union about a street-use permit first, and allow time for it to be issued.
See our dumpster permit guide for what to ask.
Which size fits Union projects?
For remodels in Union's older homes, plan by weight: plaster and tile fill a 15 or 20 yard's allowance before its volume. Cleanouts of furniture and boxes go by volume instead.
Compare sizes: 10 yard, 15 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard, 40 yard, or read what size dumpster you need.
