Landscaping projects generate different types of waste depending on the season and the work being done. Spring cleanups often involve branches, twigs, and dead growth from winter. Summer projects might include grass clippings and pruning waste. Fall brings mountains of leaves, while major landscaping renovations can involve soil, rocks, and complete plant removal. The team behind Zap Dumpsters knows exactly what size container works best for each type of landscaping project.
