At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Aurora, Colorado, a large city that reaches into Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties, in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Basement finishes, roof replacements, kitchen updates, and new construction out toward E-470 keep our containers moving between driveways and job sites all year.
Four things set your price: the container size, the weight and type of debris, the number of days you keep it, and the disposal fees charged where the load is dumped. The sections below walk through local prices, Aurora's street permit rules, the items Colorado keeps out of its landfills, and where your debris ends up.

Several local details move the final number on an Aurora rental.
Size is the first choice you make. Renting one step too small often leads to a second haul, and that usually costs more than the larger container would have.
Weight comes next. Roofing shingles, tile, plaster, and dirt get heavy fast, and landfills bill by the ton. A small container packed with shingles can easily weigh more than a big one full of old furniture.
The disposal site matters as well. The regional landfill for metro Denver, the Denver Arapahoe Disposal Site, sits inside Aurora on South Gun Club Road, so most trips to the dump stay short. The site sets its own disposal fees, and your account manager folds them into your quote.
Aurora doesn't pick up household trash itself. Residents, HOAs, and apartment managers arrange service with one of the City's permitted haulers, so there's no City bulk pickup to lean on during a big project. For a remodel or a large cleanout, a roll-off container is the simplest way to get everything gone at once.

Picking a size starts with two questions: how much debris will you have, and how heavy is it? We carry five container sizes, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a single bathroom tear-out, a small basement purge, or broken concrete from an old patio. Dense material like concrete and brick hits the weight limit before it fills the space, so a small container is often the smarter pick for it.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a one-car garage cleanout, carpet removal across a few rooms, or a modest roof. It's a step up in room without a big step up in price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice in Aurora for full-house cleanouts and remodels that touch several rooms at once.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles additions, major renovations, and new home construction, where lumber scraps, drywall, and packaging pile up quickly.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest container. Contractors use it on commercial builds, large tear-downs, and office or warehouse cleanouts.
If you're torn between two sizes, your account manager can talk through the job with you and recommend the better fit.
A container on private property, such as your driveway, a parking pad, or a fenced job site, generally doesn't need a City permit in Aurora. Placing it on a public street, alley, or sidewalk is a different case, since that space belongs to the City.
Aurora's city code says a contractor must get a permit from the director of public works before doing any work in the public right-of-way. The City's public improvement permit page adds that work restricting access to the right-of-way needs an approved traffic control plan before a permit is issued. Because the rule is written around construction work, ask the City how it applies to a parked container at your address.
The Permit Center in the Building Division handles these requests at 15151 E. Alameda Parkway, Suite 2400. Call 303-739-7420 with permit questions, or reach the engineer on duty at 303-739-7575. The City doesn't list a fee or review time for a container in the street, so make that call well before your delivery date.
Not sure whether your drop spot counts as right-of-way? Your account manager can help you work that out and find the right person at the City.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris can go straight into your container. The exceptions come from Colorado's landfill rules and from what the receiving site will take.
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment keeps a list of materials banned from landfill disposal. It includes lead-acid batteries, such as car batteries, along with used oil and liquid waste. Waste tires are on it too, unless no other option exists, and so are electronic devices and computers.
The electronics rule catches a lot of people off guard. TVs, monitors, laptops, and printers can't be tossed with regular debris anywhere in Colorado. The state sends residents to electronics recyclers instead, and you should expect those recyclers to charge a fee.
Beyond the state list, a standard roll-off can't take hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, or asbestos. Pull these items out before loading, and mention any tires or appliances when you book.
If you aren't sure about something in the pile, your account manager can check 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.
Aurora is home to the Denver Arapahoe Disposal Site, a non-hazardous landfill at 3500 South Gun Club Road, Aurora, CO 80018. The City of Glendale describes it as owned by the City and County of Denver, serving homes, businesses, and industry across metro Denver and nearby Front Range towns.
Trash service in Aurora runs through private haulers, so not every load follows the same route. The destination can depend on what's in the container and where your project sits in this large city.
Having a regional landfill inside the city limits keeps hauls short for most Aurora addresses. Your account manager will confirm where your load is headed and explain the disposal costs before the container arrives.
Most Aurora rentals can be booked within one to two business days, and the container shows up inside a 24 to 48 hour delivery window. Calling a few days early gives you time to sort out a street permit and get your drop spot ready.
A little prep goes a long way:
Weekends and holidays can slow things down at the disposal site, so a container you fill late on a Saturday may wait until the next business day. Ask your account manager how the schedule works for your address.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster delivers throughout Aurora's Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas county neighborhoods, and we also serve nearby Centennial, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills Village, Foxfield, Watkins, Bennett, and the unincorporated land east of E-470. Wherever your project sits, we plan delivery, pickup, and disposal around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll match the container to your debris, confirm where the load is going, and give you a straight answer on 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 Aurora, our dumpster 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 weight of your debris and the disposal fees at the receiving landfill also shape the final price. Your account manager will confirm the included tonnage and overage rates.
Usually, renting wins once a job needs more than a trip or two. The landfill on Gun Club Road is close, but every run still means loading a truck or trailer, paying a disposal fee, and losing part of your day. A dumpster sits in your driveway until you're done, and we haul it off in one trip.
Yes, with room to spare. A standard three-cushion couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard container, so there's space left for chairs, a mattress, and a pile of bagged clutter. Furniture is bulky but light, so the container fills up long before the load gets heavy.
Colorado bans electronics, used oil, lead-acid batteries, and liquid waste from its landfills, so keep TVs, computers, and car batteries out of your Aurora dumpster. Hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos are off limits too. Tires need special handling, so tell us about them when you book.
The 10-yard container has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. Your total can still climb if the load is heavy, since dense debris like concrete, dirt, or shingles reaches the weight allowance quickly. Putting heavy material in a container of its own is often the cheaper route.
Most three-day rentals cost the same as our standard five-day period, because the price covers the job rather than each day. What you load, and how much it weighs, affects the bill far more than an early pickup. Ask your account manager about the weight allowance and any charge for extra days.
Almost all household and building debris is fine, including lumber, drywall, cabinets, carpet, roofing, fencing, furniture, and yard waste. Clean concrete, brick, and dirt can go in as well, though they're heavy and may cost less to handle as a separate load. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
