Common Questions
Meta Ads in Charleston: FAQ
What audience radius should Meta Ads use for Charleston dumpster rentals?
Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Charleston there are no other listed markets (about 50,000 listed residents including Charleston); within 50 miles, 1 (about 98,000).
Should Huntington get its own Meta ad set?
Huntington is 44 mi west of Charleston. 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 Charleston?
Both, with separate messaging. Homeowners respond to project-based creative (renovations, clean-outs); contractors respond to account, scheduling and repeat-rental offers. In a market this size, start with one ad set and split once results justify it.
