What the weather adds to a Scarborough dumpster bill
Scarborough gets 47.2 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 61.9 inches of snow. An open container catches all of it, and the weight goes on the scale ticket with the rest of the load. 142 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 1.7 miles out.
