Here's how local conditions affect the cost of a dumpster in College Park.
Size matters first. A larger container costs more, but squeezing a big job into a small one usually leads to an extra haul and a bigger bill in the end.
Debris type comes next, and in Prince George's County it also decides where the load can go. The county landfill takes household trash but not construction debris, roofing, or pallets. Those loads go to a separate facility, which can change the disposal cost.
The county landfill charges a standard rate of $70 per ton for commercial loads. Heavy debris uses up your weight allowance quickly, so tell us what you're loading.
The City's permit rule is the last piece. College Park requires a permit for most dumpsters on residential property, and it limits how long a container can stay. A longer project may need an extension.

Start with the amount of debris and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a bathroom remodel, a basement cleanup, or a small deck removal. It's also the one to choose for brick, block, or concrete, since heavy debris maxes out the weight before the container fills up.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage cleanout, a kitchen tear-out, or carpet and pad from several rooms. It's a comfortable middle ground for a lot of homeowners.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is popular with landlords clearing out a rental house between tenants. It also handles most whole-home cleanouts and multi-room remodels.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits additions, full renovations, and new home construction. It gives a crew plenty of room for bulky, mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest size. Use it for commercial projects, full demolition, and large apartment or office cleanouts.
Tell your account manager about the job, and they'll recommend the size that fits.
In many towns, a dumpster on private property like your driveway doesn't need a permit. College Park is stricter. The City requires a permit for any dumpster larger than three cubic yards placed on residential property, even in your own driveway. Every roll-off we rent is larger than that.
The City permit is good for up to 30 days. The Director of Public Services can extend it by up to 60 more days in a twelve-month period. Longer stays need approval from the City Manager.
You apply online through the City's permit portal. The City's permits page confirms that dumpsters are covered by this process. If you're also pulling a County building permit, the City expects its own permit as well.
A container on a street or sidewalk may need extra approval. For questions about either case, call the College Park Department of Public Services at 240-487-3570, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Your account manager can help you find the right contact before delivery.
Most cleanout junk and building debris can go in a dumpster. What can't go in depends on Maryland's landfill rules and on the facility that takes your load.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of any standard dumpster. The county landfill also refuses compressed gas cylinders, auto parts, and chemical or petroleum cleanup waste.
Construction debris needs its own plan. The Brown Station Road landfill doesn't take construction and demolition debris, shingles, pallets, soil, rocks, or stumps. If your job mixes household junk with building debris, tell us so the load goes to the right place.
For household chemicals and old electronics, Prince George's County runs drop-off sites at the landfill on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
Ask your account manager about any item you're unsure of before loading 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.
Household cleanout loads from College Park can go to the Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill at 11611 White House Road in Upper Marlboro. Prince George's County owns and runs the landfill, and it accepts waste only from County residents and businesses.
The landfill is open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and closed on Sundays. It also closes for major holidays, including Thanksgiving and Christmas. You can reach it at 301-952-7625.
Because Brown Station accepts only household-type trash, loads of construction and demolition debris are taken to a separate licensed facility. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and walk you through any disposal fees before delivery.
11611 White House Road, Upper Marlboro, MD
Household-type waste only, Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Most College Park rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with drop-off in a 24 to 48 hour window. Since the City requires a permit for most placements, booking a few days ahead is a smart move.
Here's how to keep your project on schedule:
The county landfill is closed on Sundays, so a container filled over the weekend is usually hauled on Monday.

A College Park dumpster rental costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on five days. Your debris type matters too, since construction debris and household trash go to different facilities. Your account manager confirms the included weight when you book.
For small household loads, the dump can win. County residents can take small household loads to Brown Station in a regular car or pickup for free. But the landfill won't take construction debris or roofing, so a remodel usually calls for a dumpster instead.
Yes, easily. A normal couch uses about one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll still have room for a futon, a desk, and bags of leftover clutter from a move-out. Furniture takes up space long before it adds up to much weight.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, asbestos, and gas cylinders. The county landfill also won't take construction debris, shingles, or pallets, so those loads must go elsewhere. Tell your account manager what you're tossing so your load is sent to the right facility.
The 10-yard dumpster is the most affordable, at $399 to $499. It's a good pick for small projects, but brick or concrete can push it past the weight limit. If most of your debris is heavy, ask your account manager about the best way to split it up.
Three days usually costs the same as five, because our prices are set per job. The weight of your load affects your bill far more than the rental length. Ask your account manager how many tons come with your rental before it's delivered.
Most debris from a College Park home or job site is allowed. That includes furniture, cardboard, lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, and roofing. Construction debris and household trash may be routed to different facilities, so let us know what you're loading. Your account manager can check anything you're unsure about.
