Meta Ads in Lafayette: FAQ

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

Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Lafayette there are no other listed markets (about 130,000 listed residents including Lafayette); within 50 miles, 0 (about 130,000).

Should Baton Rouge get its own Meta ad set?

Baton Rouge is 52 mi east of Lafayette. 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 Lafayette?

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.
