ᐅ Duration of Shell Construction – Construction Waste Container

Hello,
once the foundation slab is completed, how long does it usually take before masonry work begins? I would also like to know approximately how long it takes to finish a timber frame structure. I assume it is practical to have a construction waste container on site at the start of the masonry work, or are there other suggestions? Is the container typically kept on site for the entire duration of the shell construction, or is a new container brought in later? Perhaps someone can explain the usual procedure here.
Thank you!

There is typically enough earthmoving happening on the site. This allows you to dispose of small amounts of rubble easily. Of course, not plastic packaging or similar waste, but only stone or brick remnants.

Around the house, whenever planting, I always have some hard material nearby for backfilling.

Our container was emptied 3 to 4 times during the construction phase.
Empty paint cans, bitumen buckets, plaster buckets.
Empty bags of concrete, screed, tile adhesive.
Tile offcuts.
Bricks (a lot of bricks, no idea what the roofers were doing).
Leftover calcium silicate stone from cutting.
Offcuts of drywall panels and tracks.
All the cardboard that everything was packed in (fixtures, sockets, switches).
Y Tong leftovers.
Rebar sections.
A few bottles of clear spirits.
Leftovers from the electrician, cable trunking offcuts, leftover KG pipes.
Next to that stood: A three-quarter pallet of calcium silicate stone, which stood in the rain forever and was then thrown in.
Certainly about 30 single-use pallets (mine!) and around 4 cubic meters (about 141 cubic feet) of construction timber (after it was cut… also mine!).
Insulation came in separate bags.

It depends on what was agreed upon. Obviously, in this case, the client is responsible for waste disposal, which was not the case for us. The contractors took their own materials with them. Smaller leftover materials from self-performed work, etc., were transported in 2-3 trips in the trunk and taken to the city recycling center. That was very inexpensive.
