Several things affect the price of a dumpster in Meridian.
Size comes first. A larger dumpster costs more, but going too small can mean paying for overage or booking a second container.
Weight is a close second. Asphalt shingles, plaster, brick, and wet soil fill up your weight allowance long before the container looks full. Tell us about heavy material up front so the quote covers it.
The landfill also plays a part. Loads from Meridian go to the landfill on Murphy Road, and its disposal fees are part of your price.
Finally, the City's trash service has firm limits. Meridian's garbage service page says the City's contracted collector won't pick up bulky waste or debris created by a contractor, or trees and vegetation. Homes get one 96-gallon cart and one smaller container each week. For a remodel, roof job, or big cleanout, a roll-off is the practical choice.

Pick a size based on how much you're throwing out and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster rents five sizes, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is a good match for a single bathroom, a small bedroom cleanout, or a pile of limbs after a storm. It's also the smart pick for brick or concrete, since heavy debris reaches the weight cap well before the top.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for a garage cleanout, a flooring job, or a roof on a smaller house.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common size in Meridian for clearing out a whole home or remodeling several rooms at once.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits a full-house renovation, an addition, or new construction with lots of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It's meant for commercial work, large demolition, and big property cleanouts.
Let your account manager know what the job involves, and they'll help you pick the right size.
If your dumpster sits on private property, like your driveway, yard, or a parking lot you own, you generally don't need anything from the City. The situation changes if the container would sit in a street, an alley, or across a sidewalk.
That space is public right-of-way, and the City of Meridian doesn't post a separate dumpster permit, fee, or review time online. The Public Works Department runs the city's streets and drainage, so it's the office to ask before a container goes past your property line.
Call Meridian Public Works at 601-485-1920. The department is at 311 27th Avenue, and its department page also lists 601-485-1965 for street and drainage issues. For building permits, contact Community Development at 601-485-1900.

Most household and building debris can go in your container. The limits come from Mississippi's disposal rules and from what the landfill will accept.
Mississippi bans lead-acid batteries, like car and truck batteries, from landfills. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality says the store that sells you a new battery must take the old one back, and many stores add a core charge of $5 or more until you return it.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, propane tanks, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either.
Lauderdale County's bulky goods drop-off sites accept washers, dryers, stoves, and dishwashers from county residents. The county's solid waste enforcement page says those sites won't take tires, batteries, air conditioners or other appliances with Freon, household trash, or contractor debris. Mention tires and Freon appliances when you book so they can be handled separately.
If you're unsure about an item, ask your account manager before loading 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.
Most dumpster loads from Meridian go to the privately run landfill at 520 Murphy Road in Meridian. State records from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality list it as the county's permitted municipal solid waste landfill. It also holds a state permit to haul waste tires.
The landfill charges by weight, so a heavy load costs more to dispose of than a light one. Your quote includes a set amount of weight, and your account manager will explain what happens if you go over it.
The County's drop-off sites are an option only for residents with household white goods, not contractor loads. Your account manager will confirm where your container is going and walk you through any disposal fees before delivery.
Most rentals in Meridian can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery coming in a 24 to 48 hour window. A call a few days ahead lets you check on street placement and prep the drop spot.
Keep these tips handy:
City trash still runs on its usual schedule while you have a dumpster. Carts must be at the curb before 7 a.m. from October to April and before 6 a.m. from May to September, so don't let the container block your cart spot.

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 Meridian costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, based on a five-day rental. The debris type and disposal fees at the landfill also factor into your price. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rate.
For a truckload or two, hauling it yourself may work. For a remodel or full cleanout, a dumpster usually saves money and time. The City's collector won't take contractor debris, and the county drop-off sites turn it away too. One container gets it all out in a single trip.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, leaving space for chairs, a mattress, and a stack of boxes. Furniture fills room quickly but stays fairly light, so you'll usually run out of space before hitting the weight limit.
In Meridian, keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, propane tanks, and asbestos out of your dumpster. Mississippi also bans lead-acid batteries from landfills, so return them to the store. Tell your account manager about tires or Freon appliances when you book.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. Since disposal is charged by weight, a small container full of shingles or brick can still run into overage fees. Keeping heavy debris in a separate load is a simple way to save.
Usually the same as five days. We price each rental by the job, so finishing early doesn't cut the price much. What you load has more effect on the final bill than the number of days. Ask your account manager about the included weight and any extra-day charge.
Most construction and household debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, carpet, cabinets, roofing, furniture, and general junk. That includes the contractor debris and bulky waste the City's curbside service won't collect. If you're not sure about an item, your account manager can confirm before you load it.
