A Temple City dumpster quote comes down to a handful of choices you make and a couple of local factors you don't control.
The container itself is the biggest piece. A larger size costs more, yet a container that's too small can mean an extra haul, which usually costs more than sizing up in the first place.
Weight comes next. Tile, plaster, stucco, concrete, and soil get heavy quickly, and every load is weighed when it's dropped off. If your project is mostly dense material, tell us early so the quote reflects it.
Temple City has no landfill of its own. Debris from roll-off containers in the city goes to a materials recovery facility, where it's sorted before anything is buried, and that facility sets its own per-ton fees.
Street placement can add a cost as well. The City's Public Works fee schedule lists $253 for a limited-term encroachment permit that covers temporary storage containers in the public right-of-way. If the container fits on your driveway, you avoid that fee.

Two questions settle the size: how much debris the job will make, and how heavy that debris is. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom tear-out, a single-room cleanout, or a weekend of yard work. It's also the smart pick for broken concrete, brick, or tile, since heavy loads hit the weight limit long before the container looks full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a two-car garage cleanout, new flooring throughout part of the house, or a small roof. It gives you breathing room without the price of a much bigger container.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size many Temple City homeowners choose for a full house cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles additions, major renovations, new home construction, and demolition that mixes wood, drywall, and roofing.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest option. It's meant for commercial builds, big demolition jobs, and cleanouts of large properties.
If you're stuck between two sizes, walk your account manager through the job and they'll point you to the right one.
A dumpster that sits on private property, such as your driveway or a fenced job site, generally doesn't need a City permit in Temple City. Once any part of it lands on a street, alley, or sidewalk, the answer changes.
Temple City's nuisance rules treat personal property that blocks or sits on public land as an obstruction unless a valid encroachment permit covers it. The Building & Safety Division, part of Community Development, issues encroachment permits for work in the public right-of-way.
The City's fee schedule prices a limited-term placement of objects in the right-of-way, including temporary storage containers, at $253. The City doesn't list a review time, so start the request well before your delivery date.
To ask about your address, call Building & Safety at 626-285-0488 or email building@templecity.us. The permit counter at City Hall, 9701 Las Tunas Drive, is staffed Monday through Thursday, 8 to 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. If you can't tell where your lot ends and the street begins, your account manager can help you reach the right City contact.
Most debris from a remodel, roof job, or cleanout can go straight into your container. California's waste rules and the facility that receives the load decide what stays out.
The state's Department of Toxic Substances Control classifies several everyday items as universal waste, and none of them can go in the trash or a landfill. That list covers batteries, electronics, old TVs and monitors, fluorescent tubes and other lamps, mercury items like thermostats, aerosol cans that aren't empty, and solar panels.
California also asks residents to keep organic waste separate from trash. In Temple City, that means the green cart for yard trimmings and food scraps, while the black cart holds regular garbage. If your project produces a big pile of branches or yard debris, mention it when you book so we can plan for it.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos don't belong in a standard dumpster either. Used mattresses and box springs are handled through the state's mattress recycling program, so flag them ahead of time.
Unsure about something on your list? Ask your account manager before it goes in.
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.
Temple City doesn't run a landfill or a transfer station. Trash service in the city is handled under a long-term franchise agreement, and the City's Trash & Recycling page explains the three-cart system residents use at home.
For roll-off containers, the City's franchise agreement requires mixed waste to go to a materials recovery facility for processing and diversion. Construction and demolition debris goes to a certified facility that meets California's minimum of 65 percent diversion. In both cases, recyclable material is pulled out first, and only what can't be recovered goes on to a landfill. The contract leaves the choice of facility to the hauler, so there isn't one fixed address for every load.
For you, this means the destination can shift with what's in your container. A load of clean concrete or yard waste may head somewhere different than a mixed cleanout. Your account manager will confirm where your debris is going and explain any disposal fees before delivery.
Most dumpster rentals in Temple City can be booked within one to two business days, and the container shows up in a 24 to 48 hour window. Calling a few days ahead gives you time to line up a street permit if you need one and to get the drop spot ready.
A few steps make delivery day easier:
Keep the City's schedule in mind, too. The Building & Safety permit counter is open Monday through Thursday only, so if you need a street permit, start the request early in the week.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster delivers throughout Temple City and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley, including Arcadia, Rosemead, San Gabriel, El Monte, Monrovia, and Sierra Madre, with the 210 and 605 freeways close by. Wherever your job is, we plan delivery, pickup, and disposal around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll match you with the right container, tell you where the load is headed, and give you a straightforward price.
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.
A dumpster in Temple City runs from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, based on a five-day rental. Heavy debris and the per-ton fees at the receiving facility can change the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rate before delivery.
For anything beyond a load or two, renting usually wins. Temple City has no public dump inside the city, so hauling it yourself means borrowing a truck, driving across the valley, and paying a disposal fee every trip. A dumpster sits in your driveway until you're done, and we take it all away at once.
Yes. A standard three-seat couch uses about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so there's still room for a mattress frame, a few chairs, and a stack of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll usually fill the space well before you get close to the weight limit.
Keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos out of any Temple City dumpster. California also bars batteries, electronics, TVs, monitors, fluorescent lamps, and solar panels from the trash. Mention mattresses and large amounts of yard waste when you book, since they're handled through separate programs.
Our 10-yard dumpster has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. It isn't always the cheapest choice, though. A small container packed with tile or concrete can go over its weight allowance and pick up overage fees. Keeping the heavy material in its own load often costs less overall.
Three days usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental, because we price by the job rather than the day. What you load affects the bill far more than the number of days. Ask your account manager how much weight is included and what each extra ton costs.
Most home and construction debris is allowed. That includes drywall, lumber, cabinets, carpet, roofing, flooring, furniture, and general household junk. Clean concrete, brick, and soil can go in too, and they're often cheaper to handle as a separate load. Your account manager can check anything you're unsure about.
