A few local factors decide what an Alhambra rental costs.
The container size sets your base price. It pays to size up slightly, since a second haul usually costs more than the next size up.
Heavy debris adds up quickly. Plaster, tile, stucco, roofing, and broken concrete fill your weight allowance long before the container looks full, and every ton counts at the disposal site.
Space is tight in many Alhambra neighborhoods. Narrow driveways, alleys, and street parking can decide which size fits, and a container on the street needs a City permit.
City hauling rules matter most here. Alhambra runs trash and recycling service through an exclusive franchise, and the City's posted rates include roll-off boxes. Your account manager will check how that affects your project before anything is booked.

Plan around how much debris you'll have and what it's made of. Old furniture takes up space, while plaster and tile add weight.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is right for a bathroom remodel, a small backyard project, or clearing out a spare room. It's also the one to choose for concrete or brick, because heavy material maxes out the weight limit before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works well for a kitchen remodel, a garage cleanout, or replacing flooring in a small house.
The 20-Yard Dumpster fits whole-home cleanouts, estate sales, and remodels across several rooms. It's a common size for Alhambra homeowners.
The 30-Yard Dumpster covers additions, accessory dwelling unit builds, and bigger renovation or demolition jobs.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest container. It's meant for commercial construction, large tenant improvements, and demolition projects with a lot of waste.
Not sure what fits your driveway or alley? Your account manager can help you pick a size that works for the space.
A dumpster that stays on private property, like your driveway or a job site, usually doesn't need a street permit. Once a container goes on a City street, you'll need one.
The City of Alhambra requires a street encroachment permit to place a bin on the street. The City's Temporary Trash Bins page explains the rule and says the permit comes from the Public Works Department.
To apply or ask questions, call Alhambra Public Works at 626-570-5067. City Hall is open Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The City doesn't list a fee online, so ask when you call.
Keep the franchise rule in mind, too. Because the City's franchise covers roll-off service, your account manager will confirm how the rule applies to your address and help you reach the right City contact before you book.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris is fine. The limits come from California's rules on hazardous and electronic waste and from what the receiving facility accepts.
The City says no hazardous waste or electronic waste may go in a temporary bin. That covers used motor oil and filters, paint, turpentine, strong cleaners, household and car batteries, pesticides, and weed killers. Electronics like TVs, computers, stereos, and phones belong in recycling.
Liquids, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either.
For hazardous and electronic waste, Los Angeles County holds free collection events. You can find the next one by calling 888-253-2652, the county's Clean LA line listed on the City's bin page.
If you have an item 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.
Many loads from Alhambra go to the Puente Hills Materials Recovery Facility, run by the Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County at 13130 Crossroads Parkway South, City of Industry, CA 91746. It's open Monday through Saturday, 4 a.m. to 5 p.m., and closed Sundays and major holidays.
The facility sorts each load to pull out recyclable and burnable material before the rest is sent on. Details and contacts are on the Sanitation Districts facility page, and the facility can be reached at 562-908-4288, extension 6071.
Clean, sorted loads of concrete, wood, or metal can also go to certified construction debris recyclers in the area. Your account manager will confirm where your load goes and explain the fees before delivery.

Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County site, open Monday through Saturday, 4 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Once the hauling question is settled, most Alhambra rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the truck arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days early leaves time for a street permit if you need one.
Tips for a smooth delivery:
Plan around the facility's hours. Puente Hills is closed on Sundays, so a container finished late Saturday may not be hauled until Monday.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster serves Alhambra and the neighboring San Gabriel Valley cities of San Gabriel, Monterey Park, South Pasadena, Rosemead, and Pasadena. Whether your project is off Main Street or on a quiet residential block, we coordinate delivery, pickup, and disposal around your timeline.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll check the City's hauling rules for your address, suggest a size, and give you 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.
A 10-yard dumpster runs $399 to $499 in Alhambra, and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, for a standard five-day rental. Your debris type and the disposal fees at the receiving facility also affect the price. Your account manager will confirm included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
For most projects, a dumpster is the better deal. Hauling your own debris means renting or borrowing a truck, fighting freeway traffic to the City of Industry, and paying disposal fees on every trip. A dumpster lets you load at home and get it all hauled away at once.
Yes. A typical three-seat couch uses about one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so you'll still have room for a bed frame, a dresser, and a pile of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so space runs out before weight does.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, motor oil, fuel, batteries, pesticides, and asbestos. Electronics like TVs, computers, and phones can't go in either and should go to a county collection event. If you have appliances or tires, tell your account manager when you book.
The 10-yard container is our lowest-cost size, at $399 to $499. Still, what you load decides the final bill. Tile, plaster, and concrete can push a small container past its weight allowance, so ask whether a separate heavy load would cost less.
A three-day rental is usually priced the same as five days, since we charge by the job and not by the day. The weight you load matters far more than the number of days. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what overage costs.
You can load most home and building debris, including lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. Concrete, brick, and dirt are allowed too, though they're heavy and often best in their own load. When you're not sure about an item, ask your account manager before it goes in.
