Meta Ads in York: FAQ

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

Match it to your delivery area. Within 25 miles of York there are 2 other listed markets (about 150,000 listed residents including York); within 50 miles, 4 (about 860,000).

Should Lancaster get its own Meta ad set?

Lancaster is 23 mi east of York. 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 York?

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.
