At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Chicago Heights, Illinois, and the south suburbs in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Brick bungalows and older two-flats across the city need new roofs, kitchens, and basements, and plenty of houses get cleaned out between owners. Warehouse, industrial, and road construction along Route 30 and Route 1 keeps roll-off containers busy for homeowners and contractors.
What you'll pay depends on the size, the kind of debris, the length of the rental, and the disposal fees at the landfill that takes the load. Below, you'll find our price ranges, who to call about City rules, Illinois landfill bans, and where south suburban debris ends up.

Several things set the price of a Chicago Heights rental.
Size is the starting point. A container that fits everything in one trip beats two smaller hauls.
Weight comes next. Plaster and lath, old brick, and layered shingles are common in older south suburban homes, and they get heavy fast. Heavy loads use up your included tonnage sooner.
Distance plays a big part here. No landfill in Cook County is on the state's list of sites with space left, so debris travels to a landfill in another county. That longer trip is built into what you pay.
City rules matter too. The City requires contractors to register before starting work, and a container on a street needs the City's okay. Your account manager will help you sort out both.

Choose a size by how much debris you have and how much it weighs. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a bathroom gut, a small porch teardown, or a crowded basement. It's also the size for concrete, brick, and block, which reach the weight limit well before the container fills.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for a kitchen remodel, a garage cleanout, or carpet and pad from a few rooms. It gives you more space without a big jump in price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common pick for Chicago Heights homes. It handles an estate cleanout, a remodel across several rooms, or the shingles from a typical roof.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits additions, full-floor renovations, and new construction. It's a good choice when a job produces a large pile of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest size. It's built for commercial and industrial projects, full demolition, and warehouse cleanouts.
Unsure of the size? Talk it through with your account manager, and they'll recommend one.
A dumpster on private property, like your driveway or a job site lot, usually won't need a City permit in Chicago Heights. Plan to check with the City before any part of it goes on a street, alley, or parkway.
The City of Chicago Heights handles building permits through its Code Enforcement department, and permits are applied for online. Every contractor working in the city must register with the City before starting work, and permits aren't issued until everyone on the application is registered. The City doesn't list a separate dumpster permit on its website, so ask about street placement when you apply.
For permit and contractor questions, call Code Enforcement at 708-756-5328. For questions about City streets, call the Streets and Sewer Department at 708-756-5364. Your account manager can help you find the right contact and confirm any rules on hauling before you book.
Most construction and household debris is fine. The limits come from Illinois landfill bans and from each landfill's own rules.
The Illinois EPA keeps several items out of landfills. Leaves, grass, and brush have been banned since 1990, along with car batteries. Used tires and large appliances that still hold Freon, mercury switches, or PCBs were banned in 1994, and motor oil in 1996. State law also bars many electronics, including TVs and computers.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either.
The City's curbside service won't take TVs, computer monitors, hard drives, tires, or construction debris. A tire recycler in town accepts tires, so set them aside and mention them when you book.
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.
Weekly curbside garbage in Chicago Heights is collected by the City's contracted hauler, with one bulk item allowed per pickup day. Remodeling debris and full cleanouts need a roll-off.
Cook County has no landfill left on the state's capacity list. The Illinois EPA's 2025 capacity report shows four landfills with space in the Chicago region: Countryside Landfill, Laraway Recycling and Disposal Facility, Prairie View Recycling and Disposal Facility, and Zion Landfill. South suburban loads often pass through a transfer station on the way.
Each of those landfills is run by a private company, and the best route depends on your debris. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and explain the disposal fees before delivery.
Most Chicago Heights rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with drop-off in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a little early leaves room to check City rules if the container can't fit on your property.
Tips for a smooth delivery:
Weekend loads take a little longer. A container filled on Saturday usually heads out early the next week.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster serves all of Chicago Heights, from downtown and the east side to the neighborhoods off Route 30 and Joe Orr Road, plus nearby south suburbs like South Chicago Heights, Steger, Glenwood, Ford Heights, and Park Forest. Your account manager will confirm delivery for your address.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll look at your debris, match you with the right size, and give you a clear price on the call.
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 Chicago Heights rental runs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard dumpster up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard dumpster, based on a five-day rental. The weight of your debris and landfill fees also shape the final price. Your account manager will confirm included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
For most jobs, renting costs less. There's no landfill with space left in Cook County, so self-hauling means long drives to another county and fees on every trip. A roll-off gathers the whole project and goes out in one haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills about one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. That leaves room for a bed frame, a dresser, and boxes. With furniture, you'll run out of space long before you hit the weight limit.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. Illinois also bans yard waste, used tires, car batteries, motor oil, and many electronics from landfills. Appliances need their Freon and switches removed, so ask your account manager first.
The 10-yard dumpster has our lowest price, at $399 to $499. Your final cost still depends on weight. Old brick, plaster, and concrete can push a small container past its limit. Keeping heavy debris in its own load often saves money.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as a five-day rental, because we price by the job. What you load matters more than how long it sits in your driveway. Ask your account manager about included weight and overage rates.
Most home and construction debris is allowed in a Chicago Heights dumpster. That includes lumber, drywall, plaster, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and carpet. Concrete and brick are fine too. If you're unsure about something, check with your account manager before loading it.
