In Danville, a few things decide what you'll pay for a dumpster.
Size matters first. A bigger container costs more, but running out of space halfway through a remodel means paying for another haul.
Weight is a close second. Pool decking, stone, tile, and dirt from landscaping jobs are heavy. Every rental comes with a weight allowance, and going over it adds a per-ton charge.
Where the load goes also changes the cost. Danville has no landfill of its own, so debris travels to transfer and recycling sites in central Contra Costa County. Sorted, recyclable loads are often cheaper to process than mixed ones.
Town rules can add a step. Bigger building projects must recycle most of their debris through certified facilities, and a container on a Town street needs an encroachment permit with fees and a deposit. Your account manager will go over both before delivery.

Choose your size by how much debris you'll have and how heavy it will be. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a powder room remodel, a closet or attic cleanout, or old pavers from a patio. It's also the right pick for concrete and stone, which reach the weight limit before the container looks full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for a garage cleanout, hardwood or carpet removal, or a small roof section. It gives you more room at a lower price than the larger sizes.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a go-to in Danville for kitchen remodels, whole-home cleanouts, and moving projects. It holds the debris from most household jobs.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits additions, major renovations, and custom home builds. It's a strong choice when a job creates a lot of bulky, mixed waste.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It's meant for commercial projects, full tear-downs, and big cleanouts.
Tell your account manager about the job, and they'll help you land on the right size.
If your dumpster stays on private property, such as your driveway, you usually won't need a permit in Danville. It's a different story once any part of it sits in the public right-of-way.
The Town of Danville requires an encroachment permit for any work in the public right-of-way, and it lists dumpsters as an example. On most streets, the right-of-way reaches about 10 feet from the face of the curb, so part of a driveway apron may count.
To get the permit, you apply online, provide a traffic and pedestrian control plan for the site, and pay the permit fees and a security deposit. Contractors on the job need a Town business license. The Town also asks for an email to Development Services at least 48 hours before work starts.
Development Services is at 500 La Gonda Way and can be reached at 925-314-3310. Your account manager can help you figure out whether your spot is in the right-of-way and find the right contact.
Most remodeling and household debris can go in. The limits come from California's trash rules and from the sites that process your load.
CalRecycle keeps a list of waste banned from the trash in California. It includes batteries, fluorescent bulbs, paint, solvents, motor oil, antifreeze, and pesticides. Tires, propane tanks, and electronics like TVs, computers, and microwaves are banned too.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster. Treated wood, like old fence boards, deck framing, and railroad ties, counts as hazardous waste in California. RecycleSmart notes that household hazardous waste sites can't take it, so plan a separate route for it.
For paint, batteries, and chemicals, Danville residents can use the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's household hazardous waste facility in Martinez for free. Ask your account manager about anything you're unsure of before it goes in the container.
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.
Garbage service in Danville is managed by RecycleSmart, the Central Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority. It also sets the rules for construction debris. Construction and demolition debris in its service area must be hauled by a RecycleSmart Registered C&D Transporter, unless the contractor or owner hauls it on their own.
Many mixed loads from the area go to the transfer and recovery station at 951 Waterbird Way, Martinez, CA 94553, which is listed in the CalRecycle facility database. For projects under the Town's recycling ordinance, debris must go to a certified recovery facility that issues weight tickets for your permit file.
Your account manager will confirm how the hauling rules apply to your project and where your debris is headed before delivery.
Most Danville rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery showing up in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking early gives you time for a Town permit or a waste plan if your project needs one. It can also help you save.
A few pointers before delivery:
Permit Center hours are shorter on Fridays, so try to finish permit questions earlier 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.
A Danville dumpster costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, based on a five-day rental. Heavy debris and processing fees also affect the price. Your account manager will confirm your weight allowance and overage rate before you book.
For most projects, a dumpster costs less. The nearest transfer sites are a drive away in Martinez, and each trip means fees, fuel, and hours of loading. A container sits in your driveway while you work, and one haul takes it all.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills roughly a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll have space left for a mattress, patio chairs, and boxes. Furniture takes up room fast but doesn't weigh much, so space is what runs out.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of a Danville dumpster. California also bans batteries, tires, propane tanks, electronics, and treated wood from the trash. Ask your account manager how to handle any of these before your container arrives.
The 10-yard dumpster is the cheapest, starting at $399 to $499. Your final cost still depends on weight. Stone, tile, or soil can push a small container over its limit and add fees. Keeping heavy debris in its own load usually costs less.
Most three-day rentals cost the same as five-day rentals. We price per project, not per day, so a shorter rental rarely saves money. Weight has a bigger effect, so ask your account manager about the included tonnage and extra ton rate.
Most home and construction debris is allowed in a Danville dumpster, including untreated lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. Yard trimmings are fine too. Concrete and clean soil do best in their own load. Check with your account manager if you're unsure about an item.
