A few things decide what a dumpster costs in Arvin.
First is size. A bigger container costs more, but squeezing a job into one that's too small can mean a second haul.
Second is weight. Stucco, roof tile, and concrete are heavy, and they use up the included tonnage quickly. Light, bulky things like furniture fill space without adding much weight.
Third is the kind of debris. Kern County Public Works sets the fees at its landfills and transfer stations, and its gate fee schedule charges roll-off loads by the ton. Construction and demolition debris costs more per ton than ordinary trash, while clean dirt costs much less.
Distance also plays a part. The landfill that carries Arvin's name is closed, so every load has to travel to an active county site.

Think about both how much debris you'll have and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster carries sizes from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom stripped to the studs, a single cluttered room, or a pile of broken concrete. Dense material like that hits the weight limit before the container fills.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for emptying a two-car garage or removing shingles from a modest roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a good match for a whole-house cleanout or pulling carpet and flooring from a family home.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles larger remodels, additions, and new construction.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest size. It's meant for commercial jobs, large demolition, and major site cleanups.
For soil, stucco, or tile, a smaller container is often the better call. Your account manager will help you choose.
When the dumpster sits on private property, such as your driveway or a private lot, you generally won't need a City permit in Arvin. If it will sit in a street, alley, or City easement, you'll need an encroachment permit.
The City of Arvin Public Works and Engineering Department issues it. You can find the application on the City's engineering page. The form asks for six folded copies of plans showing where the work is, a current City business license for anyone doing the work, and 24 hours' notice before work starts. It also says to allow at least 14 work days for processing.
The City's engineering fee schedule treats encroachment permits as a deposit figured for each application, so there's no set price to quote. Engineering sets the amount when you apply.
The office is at 141 Plumtree Drive. Call City Engineering at 661-854-2822 and ask whether a container in your street needs this permit. Your account manager can help you find the right contact.
Most debris from a remodel or cleanout can go in. The limits come from California's list of wastes banned from the trash and from county landfill rules.
According to CalRecycle, the banned items include all batteries, fluorescent tubes, LED lights, latex and oil-based paint, paint thinner, aerosol cans that aren't empty, pool chemicals, and pesticides. Antifreeze, motor oil and filters, tires, treated wood, asbestos, and propane tanks are on it too. So are TVs, computers, cell phones, and other electronics, plus mercury items like old thermostats.
Hazardous waste, liquids, solvents, and fuel can't go in a standard dumpster either. Kern County takes tires and treated wood at its sites as separate items with their own fees, so set them aside and mention them when you book.
Ask your account manager about anything you're unsure of 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.
Arvin no longer has a working landfill. The Arvin Sanitary Landfill on North Wheeler Ridge Road is listed by the State as closed, so no loads are buried in town.
Kern County Public Works runs the active Bakersfield Metropolitan (Bena) Sanitary Landfill at 2951 Neumarkel Road, Caliente, CA 93220, east of Bakersfield. The State lists it as an active, permitted site. For hours and current fees, call Kern County Public Works at 661-862-8900.
The site a load goes to depends on the debris and the route. Your account manager will confirm your container's destination and explain the disposal fees before delivery.
2951 Neumarkel Road, Caliente, CA 93220
Run by Kern County Public Works; call ahead for hours and current fees.
Most Arvin rentals can be set up within one to two business days, and the container arrives in a 24 to 48 hour window. If it has to go in the street, plan well ahead, since the City's permit form asks for at least 14 work days.
These tips help your delivery go smoothly:
A street placement takes the longest to set up, so the permit, not the delivery truck, usually sets your timeline.

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.
Dumpster rentals in Arvin run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Kern County charges more per ton for construction debris, so what you load also affects the price. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates.
For most projects, a dumpster is cheaper. Arvin's own landfill is closed, so hauling it yourself means a long round trip to a county site each time, plus gas, a truck, and a fee at the scale. A dumpster makes that trip once, after you've loaded everything.
Yes, with room to spare. A three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll still have space for a mattress, a couple of chairs, and several bags of clutter. Furniture is light for its size, so you'll fill the space first.
Anything on California's banned-from-the-trash list stays out. That includes paint, thinners, pool chemicals, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil, all batteries, fluorescent tubes, tires, treated wood, asbestos, propane tanks, and electronics. Liquids and fuel are out too. Your account manager can help you plan for those items.
The 10-yard dumpster has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. Your final cost still depends on weight, since Kern County charges by the ton. A small container full of concrete or stucco can go over its limit, so keeping heavy debris separate helps you save.
Three days usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental, because we price by the job. The weight of your debris affects the bill more than the number of days. Ask your account manager how many tons are included and what extra weight costs before delivery.
Most household and building debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, flooring, roofing, furniture, fixtures, cardboard, and yard trimmings. Clean concrete and dirt are fine too, and they often cost less to dispose of when kept in their own load. Your account manager can confirm anything unusual before you load it.
