Summer is only weeks old here in the Tri-state area, but the sound of fireworks will soon signal the season has hit its full stride. From sea to shining sea, the country will be celebrating its rich history going back to its humble inception 250 years ago. Below is a brief summary of those days leading to the independence movement and some interesting facts about U.S. history.

The history of Independence Day in America

On July 4, 1776, the thirteen colonies claimed their independence from England, leading to the formation of the United States. The colonies and England had already been at odds for a year when the colonies convened a Continental Congress in the summer of 1776. Richard Henry Lee of Virginia presented a resolution in a June 7th session in the Pennsylvania State House. That resolution included these now-famous words:

“Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”

These words led to the drafting of a statement presenting to the world the colonies’ case for independence. Members of the committee included famous patriots John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia. The task of drafting The Declaration of Independence was given to Jefferson.

On July 1, 1776, the Continental Congress reconvened, and on the following day, the resolution for independence was adopted by the colonies. The Declaration was officially adopted and ratified on the afternoon of July 4.

Interesting facts about America’s independence movement

1. Only John Hancock actually signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. All the others signed later.
2. The Declaration of Independence was signed by 56 men from 13 colonies. Each could have been tried for treason had the revolution failed, losing their lives and their family property.
3. The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence was 45. The youngest was Thomas Lynch, Jr (27) of South Carolina. The oldest delegate was Benjamin Franklin (70) of Pennsylvania. The lead author, Thomas Jefferson, was 33.
4. The only two signers of the Declaration of Independence who later served as President of the United States were John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.
5. The stars on the original American flag were in a circle so all the Colonies would appear equal.
6. The first Independence Day celebration took place in Philadelphia on July 8, 1776. This was also the day that the Declaration of Independence was first read in public after people were summoned by the ringing of the Liberty Bell.
7. The White House held its first 4th of July party in 1801.
8. Presidents John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe all died on July 4th. Adams and Jefferson (both signed the Declaration) died on the same day within hours of each other in 1826.
9. In 1776, there were 2.5 million people living in the new nation. Today the population of the U.S.A. is 326 million.
10. Fireworks are part of the tradition of celebrating this national holiday. More than 250 million pounds of fireworks will go up in smoke this year.
11. Grilling food is also big on Independence Day. Approximately 150 million hot dogs are consumed on this day.
12. Every 4th of July, the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia is tapped (not actually rung) thirteen times in honor of the original thirteen colonies.

In June 1776, representatives of the 13 American colonies engaged in the revolutionary struggle, weighed a resolution that would declare their independence from Great Britain. On July 2nd of that year, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence. Two days later its delegates adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. The signers risked all they owned and their lives for this act of high treason against the British crown.

“With a single sheet of parchment and 56 signatures, America began the greatest political journey in human history.” — President Donald J. Trump

The key events leading to the independence movement

The Boston Massacre (1770), the Boston Tea Party (1773) and the Intolerable Acts (1774) fueled colonial resistance against Great Britian’s rule. The Revolutionary War began with the Battles of Lexington and Concord (April 1775), famously heralded by Paul Revere’s midnight ride, and included pivotal engagements such as the Battle of Bunker Hill (1775), Trenton (1776), and Saratoga (1777), which secured French support for the American cause for independence.

In addition to Jefferson, founding fathers George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and John Adams played pivotall roles in diplomacy, military leadership, and the creation of foundational documents for the new Democratic Republic.

This is the month to consider your current living situation and think about your options of becoming a homeowner. Building a dream home is what many dream about and save for year after year. Others just want to go from renting a place to owning a first home. Sometimes, these aspirations come with wants, but for many it’s with thoughts of “what can we afford that is pretty good for now.”

No matter your stage of life, the local building professionals — like Mt. Tabor Builders in Clear Spring, MD — can help you achieve your personal goal of homeownership and having a great place to call your own. Or, you may just need some upgrades to your “new to you” home’s interior and/or exterior that you can handle yourself.

Whatever your situation may be, a rental dumpster can be very useful as you transform your new house into your new home. For instance, if you’re buying a starter home that may be a good deal, it probably needs some of your “sweat equity.” Those projects usually end up with a pile of old building materials that need to go to the local landfill. Having a dumpster next to your job site means they go from being attached to your house to being in the dumpster. You never touch the mess again. When the tear out is complete, contact the company and a driver hauls it all away. The BlueBox Rental team can make it that easy. Just read the customer testimonials below.

If you are venturing into the market for the first time, click on this resource link for some great advice on being a first-time homeowner. Wise words are important for those new to the real estate home buying market.

This month started off with National Say Something Nice Day, which is what many BlueBox Rental dumpster clients have done over the years. Below are some of those kind words said about the Hagerstown, MD company’s customer service around the Tri-state area.

Memorial Day is the unofficial start to summer and a time to reflect on those who gave all dating back to 1776.

The upcoming holiday is about remembering those who have served and given their all so many could live free and pursue happiness. It will also be about the country’s 250th anniversary, making patriotic holidays a little more special in 2026. The usual pageantry of parades, ceremonies and large gatherings of loved ones will be bigger and more sentimental. 

The BlueBox Rental staff in Hagerstown, MD hopes you have a safe holiday weekend and take the time to learn more about the United States of America’s past. See the information below as a start to that learning process.

Memorial Day Facts

Did You Know: Memorial Day is Monday, May 25, 2020. The holiday began after the American Civil War in 1868, when the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization of Union veterans established it. It was originally called Decoration Day, because the citizens were encouraged to decorate the graves of those who died in the war. By the 20th Century, competing Union and Confederate holiday traditions merged and Memorial Day honored all Americans killed while in military service.

“On this Memorial Day, it is right for us to remember the living and the dead for whom the call of their country has meant pain and sacrifice. A grateful nation is in their debt.” – President Lyndon B. Johnson, 1966

A final thought on Memorial Day

May can be a busy month as the summer season unofficially kicks off later this month. It’s a time of wrapping up the school year, graduations, weddings and lots of outdoor activities. And in the midst of all this, don’t forget to celebrate mom on Sunday, May 10th, because that’s Mother’s Day.

“Every good gift comes from above, but moms do a lot of the delivery work.” — Keely Chace

More people sell their homes or relocate this month than any other time of year. When people move, they often pack up everything and then realize most of the stuff is not needed in the new place. For graduates moving out, it’s pretty easy to know what to take and what to leave behind for the parents to deal with. For families relocating, it’s often about cleaning out the clutter of the past and moving on to something newer and better. But what to take to the new location?

Key to-dos when selling your home and moving

Experts advise sellers to take a few important steps to impress potential buyers. Even in this tight market, you may be competing with several other sellers. Steps to consider include:

• Pressure wash siding, sidewalks and decks (try Complete Power Wash in MD or Extra Mile Powerwashing in WV).
• Mow the lawn, edge and trim the hedges
• Repaint the front door and mailbox
• Update the lighting fixtures inside and outside the house
• Order a BlueBox Rental dumpster
• Remove all clutter from inside your home (short-term storage unit rental)
• Deep clean the home’s interior

NOTE: You can also use the list above as conditions for what should be done in your new home before signing on the dotted line. Also, the BlueBox staff recommends Mt. Tabor Builders in Clear Spring, MD if you need any major home improvement work done at your current or new home.

Interesting facts about the month of May

The post Moms, Moving and a Memorial this May appeared first on BlueBox Rental Hagerstown MD Local Dumpster Guys.

Stress is a common issue and it seems to be more and more prevalent. This is the month to recognize such stress in your life and identifying the causes. Many people think stress is just something you have and you just endure it. However, experts say losing sleep, indulging in addictive behaviors, suffering from acid reflux and elevated blood pressure are critical impacts on the body.

One thing that causes stress in some people is the feeling they can’t keep up with life’s demands. This includes the demands of work and home. That feeling doubles when there is a big job that needs doing. It could be a major spring cleaning, a major home repair or other home-related project. Add a deadline to these and it can intensify the stress of getting it done. Getting started likely means making a big mess. But there is a way to reduce the stress brought on by that mess. The BlueBox Rental staff members have a dumpster and a service that can make life easier.

A rental dumpster delivered to your driveway or curb is the first step. Having that mess hauled away a few days later is the second.

Request a rental dumpster for your mess

If you aren’t careful, a big job can often lead to a second big job. Many people will move a mess from one spot to another spot before they realize they’ll need to move it one more time. The BlueBox Rental staff  has a perfect size dumpster for your job, which can be delivered very closely to your job site.

Know what stresses you out and do something about it

Stress can be good and bad, but it’s mostly bad. A little stress can motivate you to accomplish goals. A lot of stress can cause many kinds of serious issues, including detrimental behavior. Undo stress can come from many place and factors, such as home, work, money, relationships, health issues, etc…. The worst thing to do about is ignoring it and hoping things get better.

The nice temperatures have many thinking of spring activities, braking free of the cabin fever blues. This likely has some Tri-state area residents ready to clean up in and around the house. The winter season often forces people to open doors to cluttered closets, basements, attics and storage rooms. It’s also a time when home improvement projects are planned or started. All of the above include messes that need to be contained and hauled away. A rental dumpster from BlueBox Rental in Hagerstown, MD, paid for with some money from your tax refund, is a great plan.

People often just start cleaning and making piles as they go. This is where a small rental dumpster from BlueBox can be delivered before those piles have to be moved a second time.

March in the Tri-state area of Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia is often a mix of clouds, wind, sun and some last-gasp snow squalls. It’s hard to count on many nice days in a row, making it the perfect time to finish any interior projects — including home upgrades — before the longer days and warmer temperatures are here to stay.

These projects and — if you just have to get outside — cleaning up the yard, outbuildings and the garage beg for having a place to put any and all unwanted items. A BlueBox dumpster is that place if you never want to see the mess again. Once you are done loading it up, a BlueBox Rental driver will haul away the box and the mess, taking it to the local landfill.

If you need ideas for projects or want to connect with local contractors, there are several home shows over the next couple of weeks.

Two local home shows for project ideas and vendor connections

March is the month for home show events around the Tri-state area.

The March 13th and 14th weekend features the Franklin County Home Builders Show at Antrim Brethren in Christ Church. The building is located at 24 Kauffman Road E (along Route 11S) in Chambersburg, PA. The Friday hours are 4 pm to 8 pm. On Saturday, attendees can meet with vendors, and enjoy food trucks, from 8 am until 4 pm.

The next weekend — Saturday, March 21st and Sunday, March 22nd — guests ill be heading to the Frederick Home Expo at the Frederick Fairgrounds (797 E. Patrick St., Frederick, MD). Saturday’s hours are 9 am to 4 pm. On Sunday, the gates open at 10 am and close at 4 pm.

March is for Women’s History and good nutrition awarness

March is the official month to celebrate the accomplishments of women throughout history. Below are some of the lesser-known names from the history books and how their achievements ultimately changed lives for the better.

• Barbara Bodichon (1827–1891): She authored a groundbreaking pamphlet on the legal status of women, sparking the campaign that eventually allowed married women to own and control their own property.
• Claudette Colvin (b. 1939): At age 15, she refused to give up her bus seat in Montgomery, Alabama, nine months before Rosa Parks. She later became a key plaintiff in the court case that ended bus segregation in the city.
• Hedy Lamarr (1914–2000): Beyond her Hollywood fame, she was an ingenious inventor who developed technology that became the foundation for modern wireless communication (such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth).
• Henrietta Lacks (1920–1951): Her cancer cells, taken without consent, became the “HeLa” cell line—an immortal line essential to medical breakthroughs like the polio vaccine and cancer research.
• Susan La Flesche Picotte (1865–1915): In 1889, she became the first Native American woman to earn a medical degree in the United States.

Margaret Hamilton’s story

Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins walked on the moon in 1969, but that may not have happened if Margaret Hamilton had not helped get them there. She led the Software Engineering Division of the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory. Her work there was vital in developing the Apollo spacecraft’s guidance and navigation system, a vital aspect to the mission’s success.

“I remember thinking, ‘Oh my God, it worked!'” – Margaret Hamilton, software engineer

Tax season is here. And, if you can believe the words of the current administration, refunds should be larger for many individuals and families.

It’s also the time of year that many homeowners think about doing home upgrades. The combination of a tax refund, soon-to-be-here warmer temperatures and breaking free of cabin fever, send people to the local home improvement store or home show (detail below). Many times it’s tackling a remodeling project. Updating bathrooms and kitchens are usually top priorities. Just about any kind of home project will create a mess. A BlueBox Rental dumpster is the perfect place to put that mess and then have it hauled away to the local landfill.

Don’t make the mistake of starting the demolition work, only to realize you’re creating a second project…the eventual clean up that could already be contained. A BlueBox dumpster can be parked steps from the job site. Once the demolition begins, old cabinets, toilets, flooring, sinks, vanities, etc….can be dealt with immediately.
