Syracuse dumpster planning notes
What Syracuse's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
Older homes
86% of homes in Syracuse 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.

Syracuse's housing is mixed: 41% detached houses, 55% in buildings with two or more units. Whether you have a driveway decides the size that fits and whether a street permit comes into play.
