5 Reasons People Will Need Dumpsters

April 24, 2014/0 Comments/in Dumpsters/by Moon Dumpster Rentals

A dumpster is a piece of equipment people do not think about until they need one. It is difficult to anticipate a situation that would require such capacity. Many people probably could not think of a reason for one on the spot if they were asked. Moon Mini Dumpsters would like to suggest 5 reasons why people would use one of our mini dumpsters:

Major overhauls-

1. Excessive bulk items-many local service departments have a 1 or 2 item limit for curb side pickup

1. Interior/Exterior remodeling-disposing of the previous materials often requires extra waste container space

Construction site cleanup
Landlords/Rental Agencies-removing junk, furniture and appliances left behind by previous tenants

If you need a dumpster for these or any other reason, call Bob Jones at (502) 772-2821 for a FREE estimate! Bob will help determine the best mini dumpster to fit your needs.

So why a “Mini” roll off dumpster?

Sometimes a cleanup project does not call for a large, bulky container. Sometimes a smaller, more manageable dumpster is the best option. Moon mini dumpsters fit well in tight spaces. We can place them next to your house, garage, or alleyway. This makes loading them much easier for you. Less travel from the house to the dumpster means you can complete your spring cleaning in LESS TIME.

The 9 yd dumpster is perfect for small to medium-sized cleaning projects:

Holds as much as 4.5 pickup trucks
10 ft long x 8 ft wide x 3.5 ft deep
Up to 5,000 lbs

Jeffersonville IN is on the Rise

March 27, 2014/0 Comments/in Louisville Events/by Moon Dumpster Rentals

If you have not been to Jeffersonville, IN lately, you should make plans to visit today! Local residents will tell you that recent transformations make Jeff the place to be! Nestled along the Ohio River in SE Indiana, Jeffersonville is just across from Louisville. “Today you look around Jeffersonville and can’t help but see the progress we’re making. Our City is on the move!” said Mayor Mike Moore.

Jeffersonville IN Business Development

Jeffersonville was recently named by nerdwallet.com as one of “Top 10 places in IN for job seekers.” Scores were based on a city’s growth, affordability and recent unemployment rates. City leaders are making special designations to promote a strong economy and job growth. “Storefront Improvement” grants have been set aside for exterior improvements to downtown storefronts. The Jeffersonville Urban Enterprise Zone encourages development, or redevelopment, in parts of the city where it might not otherwise occur. The Jeff UEZ helps foster an environment where local businesses can locate, grow, flourish—and create jobs.

Jeffersonville-A Thriving Community

Again, Jeff city officials are taking action to improve the overall quality and visitor experience. Homes are being renovated thanks to “Front Porch Project” grants. These are funds to help downtown homeowners maintain and fix up their homes. The Big 4 Bridge was reopened last year to promote cross traffic between IN and KY.
The ramp coming off of the Big Four Bridge into Historic Downtown Jeffersonville is scheduled to be opened in May 2014 for pedestrians and bicyclists.

Things are only going to get better for this entire area with the completion of the Downtown Crossing in 2016. The Downtown Crossing will connect downtown Louisville and Jeffersonville, running parallel to the existing Kennedy Bridge. The East End Crossing will be located eight miles upstream and connect Prospect, Ky. and Utica, Ind.

These are some insider tips on where to buy local and 2014 events.

Small Business Networks Can Reduce Costs and Inefficiency

March 3, 2014/0 Comments/in Dumpsters/by Moon Dumpster Rentals

As a leading company in dumpsters and DIY roll off containers in Louisville, KY, Moon Mini Dumpsters strives to provide the best possible service at the lowest possible cost for each client. One of the ways we achieve this goal is by communicating with other dumpster companies as part of a small business network.

Frog Hauling in Columbus, OH is one of our network businesses. Through available online resources, Moon shares ideas with Frog and similar businesses regarding best practices. These practices relate to everything from fuel consumption, tracking technology, truck types and much more.

Improving Louisville Dumpsters

As part of the same niche, it makes sense for like-minded small businesses to share information that is mutually beneficial. Examples include group health care, vendor sharing, a marketing “umbrella” for all companies, and reusing resources to eliminate upfront costs.

Small business networking is not a new concept, but one that is gaining momentum in today’s online economy. Is your small business already a part of a network? Planning on joining one? What are some of your experiences thus far with small business networks?
