Meta Ads in Trenton: FAQ

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

Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of Trenton there are 2 other listed markets (about 150,000 listed residents including Trenton); within 50 miles, 14 (about 2.9 million).

Should Hamilton get its own Meta ad set?

Hamilton is 5 mi east of Trenton. That close, keep it in the same ad set and mention both names in the copy.

Is Meta better for homeowners or contractors in Trenton?

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.
