In older parts of Allentown, plaster and lath walls weigh far more than modern drywall. If you are gutting a pre war property, tell the provider, because the weight allowance matters more than the cubic yards.
The driver needs room to back in straight. Shared drives, tight gateposts and parked cars on a narrow Allentown street are the usual reasons a delivery has to be rescheduled rather than the drive being too short.
Check whether your Allentown neighbourhood has rules about street visibility or screening. Finding out after the container is on the drive is the expensive order to do it in.
Load heavy material first and spread it across the floor of the container. An unevenly loaded box is harder to winch onto the truck and occasionally cannot be collected at all.
Container availability in Lehigh County tightens before pricing does. Booking two or three days ahead buys you a better delivery window more than a better rate.

Allentown dumpster rental questions
What size do most Allentown homeowners order?
The 20 yard container. It handles a full floor of remodel debris or roughly 2,500 square feet of shingles and still fits a standard two car driveway.
Can I rent a dumpster for just one day?
You can, but it rarely saves money. Most providers price a minimum rental period of about a week, so a one day rental usually costs close to the same.
Can two smaller containers work instead of one large one?
Sometimes, and on heavy debris it is often the better answer. Two 10 yard containers of concrete are easier to price and transport than one overloaded 20 yard.
Will the container damage my driveway?
It can if nothing is put underneath. Plywood under the wheels and the rear roller spreads the load and is the standard precaution on residential concrete and asphalt.
Do I need to be home for the delivery?
Usually not, as long as the drop spot is clear and you have given clear instructions. Many Allentown deliveries happen with nobody on site.
