May is National Moving Month and a dumpster can help.
May is the perfect month for getting outside and partaking in lots of activities. The warmer weather has the roadways, trails and waterways bustling. The Memorial Day weekend (May 24th-26th) is the unofficial start to summer fun in the Tri-state area. School is almost out and summer vacation plans are within sight. It’s also the perfect month for selling and buying houses. And, when that is the case, moving companies are on full alert.
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. A way to avoid that is to make a list of what you need in the new place. Pack that up first. What does not need to be moved, sell, donate or toss it. For those things ready for the landfill, put them in a BlueBox Rental dumpster from the company’s Hagerstown, MD headquarters. The company’s customer service team will take it from there and your load will be lighter.Here are some suggestions for making the move in 2025.
Key to-dos to sell your home

- Pressure wash siding, sidewalks and decks (try Complete Power Wash or Extra Mile PowerWashing)
- Mow the lawn, edge and trim the hedges
