How to read the Middletown list

That split is typical, and it is why the medians here are worth having.

What Middletown houses are made of
The median home in Middletown was built in 2005, across 8,858 housing units. That is recent stock: drywall, engineered lumber and asphalt shingle. It fills a container by volume rather than weight, so the bigger size is usually the economical one unless you are tearing off a roof.
What the weather adds to a Middletown dumpster bill
Middletown gets 45.8 inches of rain in a normal year. A roll-off sits open, so that lands in the container and the truck weighs it on the way to the tip. You pay for the water by the ton along with everything you meant to throw out. 107 days a year drop below freezing, and a wet load that freezes is heavier and harder to tip. Tell the hauler if the container has frozen to the driveway before they send a truck. Ask for a tarp if it is going to stand through a wet week. NOAA 1991–2020 normals, from a station 2.8 miles out.
