What Cedar Rapids houses are made of
63,669 housing units sit in Cedar Rapids, median build year 1973. Stock that age is drywall and engineered lumber, light for its bulk, so volume is the constraint rather than weight. The exception is a roof: shingles are heavy enough to change the answer on their own.
What the weather adds to a Cedar Rapids dumpster bill
Cedar Rapids gets 34.6 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 26.7 inches of snow. None of that is your rubbish, but you pay to haul it, because the container is open to the sky and the load is weighed at the tip. 143 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 0.7 miles out.
