Here's what goes into the price of an East Orange dumpster.
Start with size. A bigger container costs more, but one that fits your job saves you from overage fees and a second haul.
Then look at weight. Plaster, tile, brick, and roofing are heavy, and disposal is billed by the ton. Couches, boxes, and old carpet are bulky but light.
State taxes ride along too. New Jersey's Division of Taxation charges a Recycling Tax of $3.00 per ton on solid waste, including construction and demolition debris and bulky waste. It's built into disposal costs, not added to your rental as a separate line.
Placement matters as well. On East Orange's narrow blocks, many driveways can't fit a large container, and a spot on the street means working with the Department of Public Works first.
Perfect For:
Weight Limit: Up to 2 tons (4,000 lbs)
Bags of Trash: Approximately 50-70 large trash bags.
Truck Loads: Roughly 3 pickup truck loads.

Choose a size by the volume of debris and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster works for a bathroom gut, a single room cleanout, or a small pile of broken concrete. Dense debris hits the weight limit before the container is full, so a small size keeps the cost down.
The 15-Yard Dumpster fits a basement or garage cleanout, flooring removal, or a small roof tear-off.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice in East Orange for whole-house cleanouts and remodels across a few rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for major renovations, multi-unit building work, and new construction.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container, meant for commercial jobs, demolition, and big building cleanouts.
On tight lots, the space you have may decide the size. Your account manager can help you pick one that fits both the job and the drop spot.
On private property, East Orange ties the dumpster to your project. The City's solid waste code allows a dumpster or roll-off container on the premises for construction, renovation, or demolition work that has a building or demolition permit.
If the container needs to go on a City street, check with the Department of Public Works before delivery. The City doesn't publish a fee or a review time for a container permit. The code does say every dumpster must stay covered and must not leak onto the street or into storm drains.
The Department of Public Works is at 44 City Hall Plaza, 3rd Floor, and the office is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. You can find it on the City's Public Works page, or call 973-266-5330 with questions.
Your account manager can help you sort out which permits your project needs and who to call.
Most household and construction debris is fine. New Jersey's disposal rules set the main limits.
New Jersey has banned TVs, computers, laptops, and monitors from the garbage since 2011, and desktop printers and fax machines were added in 2018. The state's recycling law also requires recyclables to be separated where they're created, so don't mix bottles, cans, and cardboard into your load. Whole tires must be recycled or burned for energy, not buried.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either. Appliances that hold refrigerant need the refrigerant recovered before disposal.
If something on your list is unclear, check with your account manager before you load it.
If the item you want to dispose of isn’t on this list, give us a call for more guidance or check out our guide of what you can throw in a dumpster.
*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
The Essex County Utilities Authority decides where the county's waste goes. Its facility list sends all household trash from homes and apartment buildings to the Reworld waste-to-energy facility at 142-156 Frelinghuysen Ave, Newark, NJ 07114. The phone number there is 973-242-2250. Instead of being buried, that trash is burned to make electricity.
Construction and demolition debris follows a different path. The same list names licensed transfer stations in Newark that accept that type of waste. Where your load goes depends on what's in it.
For questions about county disposal, the Essex County Utilities Authority is at 973-792-9060. Your account manager will confirm where your load is headed and walk you through the fees before delivery.

Receives Essex County household trash under the county's plan and turns it into electricity.
Most dumpster rentals in East Orange can be booked within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If it needs to sit on the street, leave time to talk with Public Works first.
A few tips for a smooth drop-off:
The Public Works office keeps weekday hours only, so call early in the week if you need City approval for street placement.

Your Prime Dumpster account manager handles the details, from tonnage and overage rates to permit contacts and delivery timing, so you can focus on the work.
Our East Orange prices run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard dumpster up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. The weight of your debris and disposal fees affect the final price. Your account manager will confirm the included tonnage and overage rate when you book.
For a few bags, hauling it yourself might work. For a remodel or cleanout, a dumpster usually costs less. Self-hauling means paying by the ton at a transfer station, plus gas and hours in traffic. One container lets you load at home and have it all hauled at once.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. There's room left for a mattress, a few chairs, a dresser, and bags of clutter. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll use up the space before you reach the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. New Jersey bans TVs, computers, monitors, printers, and fax machines from the trash, and whole tires can't be buried. Recyclables should be sorted out too. Ask your account manager about anything you're unsure of.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. It's also the easiest to fit on a small lot. Heavy debris like brick or tile can push it past the weight limit, so keep dense material in its own load when you can.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as a five-day rental. We price by the job, not by the day, and debris weight affects the bill more than time. Ask your account manager how much weight is included and what extra days cost.
Most construction and household debris is allowed. That includes lumber, drywall, plaster, flooring, cabinets, roofing, furniture, and general junk. Brick and concrete can go in too, though they're heavy. Your account manager can confirm any item before you load it.
