Google Ads Management for Dumpster Rental Companies in Troy, MI
Troy is a suburban market inside a large metro in Oakland County, 20 mi north of Detroit. Troy searches overlap with advertisers from across the Detroit metro (20 mi away), so a campaign here should win on local relevance — Troy in the ad copy and landing page — rather than trying to outbid metro-wide budgets.

Google Ads in Troy: FAQ
How big should a Google Ads radius be for dumpster rentals in Troy?

Should a Troy campaign also target Detroit?
Detroit is 20 mi south of Troy. Close enough to serve from one yard — put it in its own ad group so it doesn't absorb the Troy budget.
Which keywords should a Troy roll-off company start with?
Begin with "dumpster rental troy", "roll off dumpster troy mi", "20 yard dumpster troy" and "construction dumpster troy", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
