At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Roselle, New Jersey, and the Union County towns nearby in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Roselle's older housing stock means steady kitchen and bath remodels, basement and attic cleanouts, roof tear-offs, and construction work, and all of it needs a container in the driveway.
Your price depends on the size you choose, what you load, how long you keep the container, and the county disposal fee charged by weight. Below you'll find price ranges, the borough's rules on how long a container can stay, what has to be kept out, and where your debris ends up.

Here's what moves the number on a Roselle quote.
Size is the starting point. A larger container costs more, but picking too small often costs more in the end, because a second haul is priced like a second rental.
Weight is the biggest variable. Union County bills disposal by the ton, so a container of shingles or plaster costs more to empty than the same container filled with cabinets and carpet.
County disposal fees sit behind every load. The Union County Utilities Authority sets one rate for the whole county, and its current notice puts the disposal fee for bulky and construction debris at $129.52 per ton, in effect since July 2, 2025. That's a county charge, not our rental price, and the Authority can change it.
Local rules can add a step. A container tied to construction, renovation, or demolition needs borough paperwork, and a longer project may need it twice. Building that time into your schedule keeps the rental from running past its window.

Weight matters as much as volume in Roselle, since disposal is charged by the ton. Prime Dumpster carries sizes from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is right for a bathroom gut, a small cleanout, or a load of dense debris like tile, brick, or broken concrete.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage or basement cleanout, a flooring job, or a small section of roof, with a little room to spare.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the one most Roselle homeowners rent. It holds a full house cleanout or a multi-room remodel, including furniture, carpet, and drywall.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits a gut renovation, an addition, or new construction, where framing scrap and packaging add up fast.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest size, meant for commercial projects, large demolition, and property cleanouts.
Not sure where your job lands? Your account manager can weigh the options with you before anything is scheduled.
Roselle treats private property placement differently from most towns. The borough's own rules let a container sit on private property for up to seven days in a row with no permit, as long as the job isn't construction, renovation, or demolition.
That exception is narrower than it looks. Once the container stays past seven days in a row, or the work is construction, renovation, or demolition of any kind, the borough requires the permits its code calls for, including construction permits. Most remodels and tear-offs fall into that group from day one.
Permits run through the Building Department at 108 West Third Avenue, Roselle, NJ 07203. The department allows itself up to 20 business days to review an application, though small jobs usually move faster. The fee is figured per project rather than published as a flat charge, so ask for your number when you apply.
Call the Building Department at 908-634-4530, or the borough's main line at 908-245-5600. Your account manager can help you line up that approval before your delivery date.
Placement in the street brings the same requirement, and the borough's police, public works, zoning, and construction officials all enforce it.
Most household and building debris is fine to load. New Jersey and the borough set the exceptions.
Electronics have to be recycled instead of trashed. That covers computers, monitors, flat-panel displays, televisions, and cell phones. Tires and large appliances such as refrigerators and air conditioners are handled the same way, kept out of the regular disposal stream.
Universal waste is the other group to watch. Batteries, fluorescent lamps, mercury devices, and oil-based paint need separate handling, and mixing them into regular trash can bring a fine from the borough.
Hazardous waste, liquids, solvents, pesticides, fuel, propane tanks, and motor oil don't belong in any container.
One local rule is easy to miss. Roselle doesn't allow a dumpster to be filled higher than three inches below the top, so keep the load level and call for a pickup rather than heaping it. Your account manager can talk through anything that seems borderline 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.
The Union County Utilities Authority controls disposal for waste generated anywhere in the county, and it decides where your load goes.
Bulky debris and construction and demolition material from Roselle is directed to a licensed disposal facility at 666 Front Street in Elizabeth, under a county contract. That's a short haul from Roselle, which helps keep transport costs down.
Household trash follows a different path. It goes to the Union County Resource Recovery Facility at 1499 Routes 1 & 9 North, Rahway, NJ 07065, a plant the Authority owns and leases out to an operator. Instead of being buried, the waste is burned to make electricity, and the plant is permitted to process up to 1,540 tons a day. The Authority's office at that address takes calls at 732-382-9400.
Which facility takes your container depends on what's inside it, so keeping clean debris separate can help. Your account manager will confirm the destination and explain the fees before delivery.
1499 Routes 1 & 9 North, Rahway, NJ 07065
County-owned waste-to-energy plant permitted for up to 1,540 tons a day.
Most Roselle rentals can be arranged within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If your job needs a borough permit, start that first, since review can take longer than delivery does.
A few things make delivery day go smoothly:
Keep the seven-day rule in mind while you plan. A container on private property that isn't tied to construction work has a one week window before borough paperwork applies.

Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll pick a size with you, check whether the borough needs to approve the placement, and quote a clear 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.
In Roselle, our rentals 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. The county charges disposal by the ton, so your debris type matters too. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rate when you book.
Renting usually costs less once a job takes more than a load or two. Every self-haul trip means a charge at the scale, fuel, and time away from the work. A container stays at your house for the whole project, and one pickup covers everything you put in it.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, leaving space for a mattress, a dresser, and bags of odds and ends. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll run out of room well before the weight limit becomes an issue.
Keep hazardous waste, liquids, solvents, pesticides, fuel, propane tanks, and motor oil out of your Roselle dumpster. Electronics, tires, refrigerators, air conditioners, batteries, and fluorescent lamps also have to be recycled separately. Ask your account manager about any of these before your container arrives.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced container, at $399 to $499. What you load still decides the final bill, since Union County charges by the ton. Dense debris like tile or concrete can pass the weight limit in a small container, so keep it in its own load when you can.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as our five-day rental. We price the whole job, covering delivery, disposal, and pickup, so a shorter stay doesn't lower the total much. Ask your account manager what an extra day beyond the standard period would cost.
Most construction and cleanout debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, doors, furniture, carpet, and general household clutter. Clean concrete, brick, and block are fine as well. If an item isn't on that list, your account manager can check it before you load it.
