What about car batteries?
Car batteries go back to auto parts stores and battery retailers, which take them for recycling when you buy a new one. They are banned from our dumpsters because a crushed battery can leak acid or start a fire.
What does a mattress or tire cost in a dumpster?
A mattress, a tire or an appliance with Freon goes in our dumpsters for $50 each, because the landfill processes them separately. Count them before you book so the fee is on your quote, not a surprise on the final invoice.

What size dumpster for a Pearland cleanout?
Most Pearland house cleanouts fit a 20-yard dumpster with 3 tons included, and a two-car garage fits a 15-yard. Furniture and boxes fill space before they reach the weight limit, so size by volume for household junk.
See the 15-yard dumpster or the size guide.
