As the warmer weather arrives, homeowners across Southern Ontario turn their attention to long-awaited renovation projects. Whether you’re upgrading your outdoor space or tackling interior improvements, one thing is certain, nearly all projects generate waste. At Mr. Waste, we provide reliable, cost-effective bin rentals to help you manage construction debris with ease and environmental responsibility.
Here are the top five spring renovation projects and how to handle the resulting waste properly.
Roofing Repairs and Replacements
Spring is an ideal time to address roofing issues caused by ice, snow, and fluctuating winter temperatures. Replacing shingles or structural components can produce substantial debris, including asphalt shingles, nails, plywood, and flashing.
Recommended Bin Size: 10 to 14-yard bin
Pro Tip: Place the bin as close to the structure as possible to minimize labour during disposal.
Landscaping and Outdoor Renovations
Whether you’re building a patio, redesigning your backyard, or installing new garden beds, landscaping projects often generate significant volumes of both organic and construction waste—including soil, sod, concrete, wood, and stone.
Recommended Bin Size: 6 to 10-yard bin
Pro Tip: Let our team know if your project includes heavy materials like soil or concrete so we can recommend the most appropriate bin size to avoid overloading.
Basement Cleanouts and Renovations
Refinishing or decluttering the basement remains a top spring priority for many Ontario families. With projects like these you can expect to remove items like drywall, insulation, flooring, and old furniture, materials which can quickly add up in both volume and weight.
Recommended Bin Size: 14 to 20-yard bin
Pro Tip: Break down larger materials before disposal to maximize bin space and ensure efficient loading.
Kitchen and Bathroom Remodels
Renovating kitchens and bathrooms typically involves the removal of bulky and diverse waste, such as cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, and tiling. These high-traffic areas generate a mix of both recyclable and non-recyclable materials.
Recommended Bin Size: 14 to 20-yard bin
Tip: Be sure to keep hazardous materials (e.g., paint, solvents) separate, and contact us for guidance on safe disposal.
Fence and Deck Replacements
Spring is a popular season for replacing worn-out decks and fences. These projects generate treated wood, metal hardware, and occasionally concrete footings—materials that require careful disposal to remain compliant with environmental regulations.
Recommended Bin Size: 10 to 14-yard bin
Pro Tip: Stack lumber neatly in the bin to optimize space and help control weight distribution.
