What audience radius should Meta Ads use for Panama City dumpster rentals?
Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Panama City there are no other listed markets (about 38,000 listed residents including Panama City); within 50 miles, 0 (about 38,000).
Should Dothan get its own Meta ad set?
Dothan is 75 mi north of Panama City. 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 Panama City?
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.
