Several things shape what a dumpster costs in Compton.
The size you pick is the base of the price. It pays to match the container to the job, since an extra haul costs more than stepping up one size at the start.
Weight is the next factor. Disposal sites weigh each load, so tile, plaster, stucco, and roofing raise the bill faster than furniture or cardboard.
California adds its own disposal fee to every ton that goes to a landfill. The state's fee table shows solid waste at $1.40 per ton, the same rate since July 2002. The facility's own disposal fees come on top of that.
Local rules can change the plan, too. Compton handles trash and recycling collection through an exclusive franchise, and larger building projects have to recycle most of their debris. Both can affect how your container is set up, so your account manager will check them with you before booking.

Pick your size by the amount of debris and how dense it is. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is right for a single-room remodel, a small garage cleanout, or a load of concrete or brick. Heavy material fills the weight allowance before it fills the container.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a roof tear-off on a smaller house, a flooring job, or a garage packed with old furniture and boxes.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the go-to size for a full interior cleanout or a remodel that spans several rooms. For heavy tear-out debris, it's usually as big as you'll need.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works well for room additions, major renovations, and new home construction.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest size. It's built for commercial strip-outs, large demolition jobs, and big cleanouts with lots of bulky, lighter material.
Tell your account manager what you're working on, and they'll help you choose the right fit.
If your dumpster stays on private property, like your driveway or yard, the City generally doesn't require a street permit. If any part of it sits in a street, sidewalk, or other public right-of-way, you need written permission first.
Compton's municipal code says no one may leave an obstruction in a street or public right-of-way without a written permit from the Street Superintendent. The rule doesn't mention dumpsters by name, but a container parked in the street falls under it.
The City of Compton Public Works Department, Engineering Division, handles these permits at 205 S. Willowbrook Avenue. Office hours are Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., with counter service from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.
The City sets the permit fee by council resolution and doesn't post it online. Call the Engineering Division at 310-605-5505 to ask about the fee and how long approval takes. Your account manager can also help you figure out whether your spot is public right-of-way and who to call.
Most debris from a cleanout or remodel can go in your container. The limits come from California's disposal rules and from the facility that takes your load.
The state recycling agency, CalRecycle, says it's illegal to throw hazardous waste in the trash. That list covers fluorescent tubes, household and car batteries, oil-based paint, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides, motor oil, antifreeze, and aerosol cans that aren't empty.
Some building materials are on the list too. Asbestos, found in some older roofing, flooring, siding, and cement, can't go in a dumpster. Wood treated with chemical preservatives has to be handled as hazardous waste. Propane tanks and other gas cylinders are also banned.
California also keeps tires out of the trash, even though they aren't hazardous. Leave them out of your container, or ask us about options when you book.
For household junk, single-family homes and buildings with three units or fewer get four free bulky item pickups a year through the City's trash service. That can handle a couch or mattress before your project starts.
If you're unsure about any 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.
Compton has a permitted transfer station inside the city at 2509 West Rosecrans Avenue. The state's solid waste facility record lists it as active and permitted, with oversight from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
Where a load actually goes depends on what's in it. For larger building projects, Compton's code requires that at least 75 percent of construction and demolition debris be kept out of the landfill. You can meet that by using the City's franchised collector for bins, or by filing a Waste Diversion Plan that names the recycling facility for your debris. A small cleanout without a building permit isn't covered by this rule.
The City's Waste Division oversees trash service and the franchise. You can reach it at 310-761-1420, on the first floor of City Hall at 205 S. Willowbrook Avenue.
Your account manager will confirm how the City's franchise and recycling rules apply to your project, where the load is going, and what fees to expect before delivery.
Most dumpster rentals in Compton can be set up within one to two business days, with drop-off in a 24 to 48 hour window. Because of the City's franchise and recycling rules, it helps to call a little earlier so we can confirm the details first.
Some tips for a smooth delivery:
If the container has to sit in the street, plan around the Engineering counter hours. It's open only Monday through Thursday, so file early in the week.

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.
Our Compton dumpster rentals range 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. Debris type and local disposal fees also affect the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage, overage rates, and any franchise rules before you book.
For a small load, a trip to the dump or a free bulky item pickup from the City's trash service may cost less. For a remodel or large cleanout, a dumpster usually wins. Each dump run adds disposal fees, fuel, and time, while one container handles the whole job in a single haul.
Yes. A typical three-seat couch uses roughly one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. That leaves plenty of room for a mattress, nightstands, and boxes of clutter. Since furniture is bulky but fairly light, you'll run out of space before you hit the weight limit.
In Compton, keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, batteries, and asbestos out of your dumpster. California also bans tires, treated wood, propane tanks, and fluorescent tubes from the trash. If you're not sure about an item, ask your account manager before loading it.
The 10-yard dumpster is the lowest-priced option, starting at $399 to $499. Your final cost depends on weight, though, so a small container packed with stucco or tile can still run over its allowance. Keeping heavy debris in its own load helps you control the bill.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as our five-day rental. Dumpsters are priced by the job rather than by the day, and your debris weight affects the price far more than the number of days. Ask your account manager about included tonnage and extra-ton charges.
Most household and construction debris is fine, including lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, roofing, furniture, and cardboard. On a larger permitted building project, clean concrete, metal, and wood are worth keeping separate, since they help you meet Compton's recycling rule. Your account manager can confirm any item before you load it.
