When residential property owners tackle a large excavation job as an initial step toward building a house, a multi-vehicle garage or another structure, there is a big pile of dirt, gravel or other material that must be moved away. They can arrange to have this done with a dump truck in Austin, TX by calling for service from a local trucking and materials company. The company will have its dump site or a contract with another organization that owns such a site.
Proper Disposal
Unless the people working on this project know somebody willing to take that load of earthen materials off their hands, it can be very difficult to dispose of it properly and legally. On substantial acreage of rural land, property owners may truck it to another part of the property and unload it there. That doesn’t work in a municipality or even a rural neighborhood where lots are less than an acre in size.
What the Kids Think
The kids may think this hill of dirt, which looks like a mountain to them, is a grand idea. They can climb it, slide down it and use their toy trucks and heavy equipment machinery on the top. The neighbors may not be so thrilled, however, and the children’s parents may also not appreciate a 4-ft. tall heap of earth in the yard.
Hiring a company to pick up that material with a dump truck in Austin, TX and haul it away is an effective solution. The children now move to another part of the yard where the parents have installed a sandbox to make up for the missing mountain. There, they pretend to work for a company like Loftin Material, lifting up sand with a digger and depositing it in the open box of the dump truck.
A List of Questions
Each company has varying policies, so anyone interested in having this type of work done should call with a list of questions. The prospective customers will want to know how the job is priced, such as by the hour or by the trip. They’ll be able to ask whether other materials besides dirt, sand, and gravel can be sent along too.
