Pittsburgh dumpster planning notes
What Pittsburgh's housing and weather mean for your rental, from published Census and NOAA data.
Older homes
Before 1980 is when 83% of Pittsburgh'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.
