Several things decide what an Independence dumpster costs.
Size comes first. A larger container costs more, but ordering one that's too small can leave you paying for a second haul.
Weight is next. Dirt, brick, and roofing shingles fill up the weight allowance fast, while furniture and cabinets take up space without weighing much. Landfills near Independence charge by the ton, so heavy loads cost more to dispose of.
Some items cost extra. Tires must be processed before a Kentucky landfill can take them, so they usually carry their own fee. List tires and other bulky items like mattresses when you book.
The last factor is placement. A driveway spot is simple, but a container in the street or right-of-way needs the City's sign-off first. Your account manager will explain what applies to your address and how it affects your quote.

Choosing a size comes down to how much debris you'll have and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom remodel, a spare room cleanout, or a load of dirt and brick from a patio job. Dense material like that hits the weight limit before the container is full, so a small size is the smart pick.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for a garage cleanout, a kitchen remodel, or a roof tear-off on a smaller home.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size many Independence homeowners choose for a whole-house cleanout or a remodel that covers several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles large renovations, home additions, new builds, and demolition jobs with a lot of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest container we offer. Builders use it for commercial projects, big demolition work, and large site cleanups.
Describe the job to your account manager, and they'll help you choose the right size.
If your dumpster will sit on private property, like your driveway or a job site, you usually don't need a permit in Independence. Plans to put it in the street or right-of-way are a different matter.
For work that crosses into the street or right-of-way, the City's Building & Zoning Department offers an Encroachment Application. You'll find it on the Building & Zoning page, and the City takes permit applications through its online citizen portal.
The City's zoning fee schedule doesn't list a fee for street placement, and no review time is posted. Call the Zoning Administrator at 859-363-2948 to ask what's needed for a container at the curb and how long it takes. The Building & Zoning office is at City Hall, 5409 Madison Pike.
Your account manager can help you reach the right City contact before delivery if you're not sure where your property ends and the right-of-way begins.
Most household and building debris can go in your container. Kentucky's rules and the landfill that takes your load set the limits.
Kentucky is less strict than many states on electronics. The Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet says household electronics like computers and monitors aren't banned from landfills, as long as the hauler and landfill accept them. Recycling is still encouraged.
Tires follow their own state rule. Kentucky lets landfills take waste tires only after they're processed so they can't trap air or water. Kenton County also holds waste tire collection events for residents.
Hazardous waste, liquid paint, PCB waste, and anything flammable or corrosive can't go in a standard dumpster. Keep solvents, fuel, propane tanks, batteries, and asbestos out as well. Kenton County runs household hazardous waste programs for items like these.
If you have something you're unsure about, ask 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.
Independence doesn't run its own landfill. Kenton County's waste haulers and landfills page lists the disposal sites that serve the area. The closest is a privately run landfill on McCoys Fork Road in Walton, south of Independence. The list also includes a transfer station in Covington and another landfill near Butler.
Each of these sites is run by a private waste company, and each sets its own hours, fees, and rules on what it takes. Your load is weighed on arrival, and the fee is based on that weight.
The county page also notes that cities usually manage home trash service for their residents, which is separate from a dumpster rental. Your account manager will confirm which facility will take your load and walk you through the disposal fees before delivery.
Most Independence rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days early leaves time to check on a street placement and prep the drop area. It can help you save, too.
Here's how to make delivery easy:
Give yourself a buffer at the end, too. If you finish loading on a weekend, plan on the container being picked up early the next week.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster serves homes and job sites throughout Independence and the rest of Kenton County, including Erlanger and Covington to the north, and we also cover Cincinnati across the Ohio River. Wherever your project is, we set delivery, pickup, and disposal around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll help you size the container, check where it can sit, and give you a clear price on the call.
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.
Rentals in Independence run 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. Your debris type and the landfill's disposal fees also affect the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
Once a job needs more than a load or two, a dumpster usually costs less. Every trip to the landfill comes with a disposal fee, plus gas and time on the road to Walton and back. A dumpster lets you load at your own pace, and we haul it off in one trip.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up only about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. That leaves plenty of room for a loveseat, a mattress, and bags of household junk. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll run out of space before weight is an issue.
Keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, batteries, and asbestos out of your Independence dumpster. PCB waste and anything flammable or corrosive are off limits too. Tires usually carry an extra fee, so tell your account manager about them.
The 10-yard dumpster has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. Your final cost depends on what goes in it, though. Dirt, brick, or tile can push a small container past its weight allowance quickly, so keeping heavy debris separate helps you save.
A three-day rental normally costs the same as our standard five-day rental. We price by the job, not by the day, and the weight of your load matters more than the number of days. Ask your account manager about included weight and extra-day charges.
Most construction and cleanout debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. In Kentucky, household electronics can go in too if the landfill accepts them. Your account manager can confirm anything you're not sure about.
