At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Anderson, South Carolina, and the nearby Anderson County towns in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Older mill-village homes getting updated, new houses going up toward Lake Hartwell, and steady construction along the US-76 and I-85 corridors keep our containers busy for homeowners and builders.
Your price comes down to four things: the container size, the kind of debris, how many days you keep it, and the disposal fees where the load is dumped. Keep reading for price ranges, the street rules inside city limits, the county landfill that takes most debris, and the items to keep out of your dumpster.

Here's what moves the price on a dumpster in Anderson.
Size is the first choice you make. A 30-yard costs more than a 15-yard, but one right-sized container is cheaper than a second haul or a pile of overage charges.
Weight is the next piece. Roofing shingles, brick, and wet soil fill your tonnage allowance quickly. A garage full of old furniture is bulky but light, so it rarely comes close.
The landfill matters, too. Anderson County runs the Starr C&D Landfill for building debris, and paid haulers are charged $33 per ton for commercial construction and land-clearing loads there. The county also keeps construction debris and land-clearing debris apart, so a mixed load of lumber and tree stumps can cost you more.
Local rules round it out. The City tells contractors to remove their own building debris and won't let it sit at the curb for pickup. A dumpster in your driveway solves that in one step.

Pick your size by the amount of debris and by how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster has five sizes, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom tear-out, a closet or attic cleanout, or a load of brush from the yard. It's also the size we suggest for concrete, block, and brick, because those materials get heavy long before the container looks full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is a good middle step. It handles a garage cleanout, a kitchen update, or old carpet and pad from a few rooms without jumping to a much bigger container.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the one many Anderson homeowners choose for a full house cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms. There's enough space for most weekend and month-long projects.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for a large renovation, a new home build, or tearing down an old shed or porch. It gives you room when the job mixes lumber, drywall, and roofing.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest container. Builders use it for commercial jobs, big demolition work, and plant or warehouse cleanouts with a lot of volume.
Still weighing two sizes? Tell your account manager about the job, and they'll point you to the right one.
When the dumpster sits on private property, like your driveway, yard, or a fenced job site, you usually don't need a permit in Anderson. Things change if any part of it lands on a street, sidewalk, or other public space.
The City of Anderson's code makes it unlawful to block a public street, sidewalk, or alley without consent from the City Council. The City doesn't post a separate dumpster permit, form, or fee, so ask before you plan a street drop. The Public Works department handles city streets and can tell you how to get approval.
Many main roads through Anderson are state highways. For those, the South Carolina Department of Transportation issues an encroachment permit for work in its right-of-way, and there's no fee for it. You can reach the state permit help line at 855-467-2368.
For city streets, call City of Anderson Public Works at 864-231-2246. If you can't tell whether your curb belongs to the City or the state, your account manager can help you find the right office.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris can go in your container. The limits come from South Carolina's landfill rules and from what the Starr C&D Landfill is set up to take.
State rules keep used motor oil out of landfills. Electronics are covered too. You can't toss a TV, computer, or monitor in with regular waste, and a landfill can't knowingly take a load that holds more than a few of them. Pull electronics out before the pickup so your load isn't turned away.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos also stay out of a standard dumpster. The City notes that tires are banned from landfills in South Carolina and must be recycled.
The Starr C&D Landfill is built for construction and land-clearing debris only, not household trash. It won't take very large stumps, and it keeps building debris separate from brush and logs. Anderson County convenience centers accept motor oil, cooking oil, and electronics, and the county's recycling facility takes tires.
If you're not sure about an item, 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.
Anderson County's Solid Waste department runs the Starr C&D Landfill at 390 Roy Arnold Rd, Starr, SC 29684. It's open Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. It takes lumber, drywall, shingles, brick, concrete, flooring, and land-clearing debris like brush, logs, and soil.
That's where most construction and demolition loads from Anderson end up. Household trash can't go to Starr, so a cleanout load with food waste, bagged garbage, or mixed trash goes to a lined landfill for household waste instead.
The county closes the Starr landfill on major holidays, including a few that catch people off guard, like Confederate Memorial Day in May. Your account manager can confirm which site will take your load and explain the fees before your dumpster arrives.

We can usually get a dumpster to your Anderson address within one to two business days, and the truck arrives in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days early leaves time to line up any street approval and to clear the drop area. It can save you money, too.
A few tips help the day go smoothly:
Keep the landfill hours in mind as well. The Starr C&D Landfill closes before noon on Saturday and stays closed on Sunday, so a dumpster filled late in the week may wait until Monday for its haul.

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 Anderson runs from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, for a five-day rental. Heavy debris and the county's disposal fees can change the final number. Your account manager will confirm the included weight and any overage charges when you book.
A dumpster is usually the better deal once a job needs more than a trip or two. Hauling it yourself means loading a truck or trailer again and again, paying for fuel, and driving out to the landfill in Starr each time. One container handles the whole project in a single haul.
Yes, easily. A standard three-cushion couch fills only about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll still have space for a mattress frame, a chest of drawers, and several bags or boxes. Furniture tends to use up room long before it adds much weight.
Keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, and asbestos out of your Anderson dumpster. TVs, computers, and monitors can't go in either, and tires are banned from South Carolina landfills. If you have tires or appliances, set them aside and mention them when you book.
The 10-yard dumpster is the lowest-priced option, at $399 to $499. Your final bill still depends on the weight you load. A small container packed with brick or wet dirt can go over its limit and pick up overage fees, so keep heavy debris in a load of its own.
Three days usually costs the same as five, because dumpster rentals are priced for the job instead of by the day. The weight of your debris shapes your bill far more than the length of the rental. Ask your account manager how many tons are included before your container arrives.
You can load most household and building debris in Anderson, including lumber, drywall, shingles, carpet, cabinets, furniture, and yard waste. Brush and logs are accepted too, but they go to a different area at the county landfill than building debris. When you aren't sure about an item, check with your account manager first.
