What Columbus houses are made of

What the weather adds to a Columbus dumpster bill
Columbus gets 44.2 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 16.3 inches of snow. An open container catches all of it, and the weight goes on the scale ticket with the rest of the load. 109 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 6.3 miles out.
