These are the local factors behind a dumpster price in Arlington Heights.
The size you pick comes first. A container that handles the whole project in one pull means no extra haul charge.
Weight comes next. The Glenview Transfer Station, owned by the regional solid waste agency the Village belongs to, charges $100.00 per ton with a $25.00 minimum for commercial and residential waste. Plaster, shingles, and concrete push that total up fast.
Keeping grass and brush out helps. Illinois bans yard waste from landfills, so it needs its own handling and shouldn't ride along in a debris load.
Street placement adds steps. A dumpster on a Village street needs a right-of-way permit, lighted barricades, and can only stay a few days, so a driveway spot is usually simpler and cheaper.

Pick a size that fits both the amount and the weight of your debris. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster handles a bathroom gut, a crawl space cleanout, or a broken-up concrete stoop. Heavy loads like these reach the weight cap before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is sized for a garage cleanout, a small roof, or tearing out old carpet and pad.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice for kitchen remodels and whole-home cleanouts before a sale.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for additions, full interior remodels, and jobs with a lot of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. Builders use it for teardowns, new construction, and commercial projects.
If you're torn between sizes, your account manager can help you choose.
A dumpster on private property, like your driveway, doesn't need a Village right-of-way permit. The rules kick in when any part of the container sits on a street, sidewalk, or parkway.
For those spots, the Village of Arlington Heights Public Works Department issues a Right of Way Permit that lists dumpsters and PODs by name. You'll need a certificate of insurance naming the Village, a traffic control plan, and notice to neighbors and the Village 48 hours before the start.
The permit sets clear placement rules. The container must sit on wood to protect the pavement, can't block views of intersections or driveways, and needs two working lighted barricades on each end. It can stay in the right-of-way for three days at most.
Public Works is at 222 N. Ridge Ave and can be reached at 847-368-5800. Your account manager can help you find the right contact and plan around the three-day limit.
Most household junk and remodeling debris is fine to load. The limits come from Illinois landfill bans and from the transfer station that takes your load.
The Illinois EPA's list of landfill bans covers grass, leaves, and brush, along with used tires, car batteries, and motor oil. Appliances like fridges and air conditioners must have their Freon and certain parts removed first.
TVs and computers are out too. The state bans landfilling common electronics, so take them to a recycler.
The Glenview Transfer Station won't take hazardous waste, household chemicals, liquids, or paint. Solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either.
If you're unsure about an item, 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.
Arlington Heights is a member of the Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County, an intergovernmental agency that handles waste transfer and disposal for 23 north suburban towns. Household trash is picked up by the Village's contracted hauler.
The agency owns the Glenview Transfer Station at 3 Providence Way, Des Plaines, IL 60016. It takes solid waste, landscape waste, and construction debris from contractors and from residents who unload their own vehicles. Every load is weighed, and the waste is then trucked on to a landfill.
The station closes to residents and contractors on weekdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and on six major holidays. Call 847-390-6820 to confirm a load will be accepted.
Your account manager will confirm where your dumpster is headed and walk you through the disposal fees before delivery.
3 Providence Way, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Owned by the Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County. Closed to contractors and residents weekdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Most Arlington Heights rentals can be booked within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If it will sit on a Village street, get the permit started early and give neighbors 48 hours' notice.
Tips for a smooth drop-off:
The transfer station's midday break on weekdays can shift pickup times, so tell your account manager if you need the container gone by a certain hour.

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 Arlington Heights costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Disposal is charged by the ton, so heavy debris raises the total. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates.
Residents can drop small loads at the Glenview Transfer Station, but there's a minimum charge, and you'll unload by hand. For a remodel, a teardown, or a full cleanout, one dumpster is usually cheaper and much easier than many trips.
Yes. A standard three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. There's still room for a dresser, a mattress, and bags of junk. Furniture is bulky but light, so space runs out before weight does.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. Illinois also bans yard waste, tires, car batteries, motor oil, TVs, and computers from landfills, and appliances need their Freon removed. Your account manager can tell you where those items go.
The 10-yard dumpster has our lowest price, at $399 to $499. It's great for small jobs, but brick or tile can push it past the weight limit. Because disposal is charged by the ton, keeping heavy debris separate helps control costs.
A three-day rental usually costs about the same as a five-day rental, since we price the job and not each day. Weight changes the bill more than time does. Ask your account manager about included weight and extra days.
Drywall, lumber, cabinets, carpet, shingles, furniture, and household junk are all fine to load. Concrete and brick are allowed as long as you watch the weight. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
