You have purchased a previously occupied house that it foiled with garbage. How do you reduce costs for cleanup? Have you figured out how to dispose of mattresses or tires cheaply?

Like @Kyle Vogeler mentioned we rent a dumpster depending on the space to park it. We DIY the clean out, and/or coordinate with our contractors to help out. A dumpster rental is $470 in our market. We also demo for any renovation. We place any metal next to the road because it's valuable for metal scrapers. Same thing for old appliances. It's gone in a matter of minutes because people hustle for that stuff.
