Should a Ann Arbor campaign also target Detroit?

Detroit is 36 mi east of Ann Arbor. Target it only if your trucks run there routinely, and give it a separate campaign with its own budget.

Which keywords should a Ann Arbor roll-off company start with?

Begin with "dumpster rental ann arbor", "roll off dumpster ann arbor mi", "20 yard dumpster ann arbor" and "construction dumpster ann arbor", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
