Disclosure & Transparency

Current Status: 100% Free

As of today, Dumpster Calculator is completely free and non-monetized:

• We do NOT currently receive any payments from dumpster rental companies
• We do NOT have affiliate relationships or earn commissions
• We do NOT sell any user data or information
• We do NOT charge users for using our calculator

We're focused on building the best possible calculator and resource for homeowners and contractors.

Future Business Model

To sustain and improve our service long-term, we plan to introduce:

• Business Subscriptions: Dumpster rental companies may pay for enhanced listings, lead generation, or featured placement in search results
• Professional Tools: Advanced features for contractors and property managers (basic calculator always remains free)
• Advertising: Relevant, non-intrusive ads from waste management companies

Important: The core calculator will ALWAYS remain free for users.

Our Commitment

Regardless of our business model, we commit to:

• Unbiased Calculations: Size recommendations based solely on your project needs, never influenced by who might pay us
• Transparency: We'll update this page when our business model changes
• Free Access: The basic calculator will always be free, no email required
• User First: Your needs come before any business relationships

When This Will Change

We'll update this disclosure when:

• We establish any affiliate or referral relationships
• We begin accepting payments from businesses
• We introduce any form of advertising
• We launch premium features or subscriptions

You can always check the "Last updated" date at the top of this page to see when changes were made.

We believe in being upfront about our business, even when we're not making money yet. This transparency helps:

• Build trust with users who rely on our calculator
• Set clear expectations about our service
• Demonstrate our commitment to user-first principles
• Establish transparency as a core value from day one
