Summer is the season for outdoor living, which makes it the perfect time to finally tackle that deck or patio renovation you've been putting off. But before the new space comes together, you've got to deal with what's coming out, and there can be a lot of it. Here's what a typical deck or patio renovation generates:

• Old Decking Boards

  • Weathered, rotted, or just outdated wood boards are bulky and heavy. A full deck tear-off can fill a dumpster on its own.

• Concrete and Pavers

  • If you're redoing a patio, breaking up old concrete or pulling up pavers creates heavy, awkward debris. (Note: concrete is heavy and may require a smaller, dedicated load. Ask VaVia about weight limits.)

• Old Furniture and Fixtures

  • While you're at it, that rusted patio set, broken umbrella, and cracked planters? Perfect time to toss those too.

• Fencing and Railings

  • Removing old deck railings or surrounding fence sections adds to the pile quickly.

• Landscaping Around the Area

  • Clearing out overgrown shrubs or old edging around the deck adds to the debris total.

The good news? A VaVia roll-off dumpster sits right next to your work area, making cleanup fast and convenient. Get your quote today and enjoy that new outdoor space before summer ends.
