Tight Squeeze for a Split-Level Renovation
We got a call from a homeowner on a tight corner lot in Westview who was tearing out fifty years of carpet and lath from a split-level renovation. It was mid-July, the asphalt was soft from the heat, and the driveway was barely wide enough for a sedan, let alone our roll-off truck. If we placed the bin wrong, we'd either block the sidewalk or crack the overhanging eaves, and the crew needed it immediately to keep the tear-out moving.
I backed our single-axle hook lift truck in slowly, using wood blocks to distribute the weight and protect that heat-softened driveway from gouges. We managed to slide the 20-yarder right up to the garage door without scratching the siding, giving the demo crew a straight shot for debris. By the time the sun set, they had the bin full, and we hauled it off toward the landfill before the neighbors even noticed it was there.
Caleb put that dumpster exactly where we needed it without ruining my driveway or blocking the mail carrier.
