Google Ads Management for Dumpster Rental Companies in Richmond, CA
Richmond is a suburban market inside a large metro in Contra Costa County, 12 mi north of San Francisco. Richmond searches overlap with advertisers from across the San Francisco metro (12 mi away), so a campaign here should win on local relevance — Richmond in the ad copy and landing page — rather than trying to outbid metro-wide budgets.

Google Ads in Richmond: FAQ
How big should a Google Ads radius be for dumpster rentals in Richmond?
Start around 15 miles. There is 1 listed market within 10 miles of Richmond, 6 within 25 and 13 within 50, so a tight radius already covers several cities.
Should a Richmond campaign also target San Francisco?
San Francisco is 12 mi south of Richmond. Close enough to serve from one yard — put it in its own ad group so it doesn't absorb the Richmond budget.
Which keywords should a Richmond roll-off company start with?
Begin with "dumpster rental richmond", "roll off dumpster richmond ca", "20 yard dumpster richmond" and "construction dumpster richmond", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
