Meta Ads in Austin: FAQ

What audience radius should Meta Ads use for Austin dumpster rentals?

Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Austin there is 1 other listed market (about 1.0 million listed residents including Austin); within 50 miles, 1 (about 1.0 million).

Should Round Rock get its own Meta ad set?

Round Rock is 17 mi north of Austin. At that distance, give it its own ad set only if you deliver there regularly and it has enough people to support one.

Is Meta better for homeowners or contractors in Austin?

Both, with separate messaging. Homeowners respond to project-based creative (renovations, clean-outs); contractors respond to account, scheduling and repeat-rental offers. In a metro this size, run them as separate ad sets.
