Meta Ads in Dayton: FAQ

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

Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Dayton there are 3 other listed markets (about 300,000 listed residents including Dayton); within 50 miles, 6 (about 700,000).

Should Kettering get its own Meta ad set?

Kettering is 5 mi south of Dayton. That close, keep it in the same ad set and mention both names in the copy.

Is Meta better for homeowners or contractors in Dayton?

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.
