At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Delano, California, and the farm towns of northern Kern County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Packing sheds, older homes that need updating, new housing on the edges of town, and ongoing construction along the Highway 99 corridor keep our containers busy with homeowners, growers, and builders.
Your price comes down to four things: the container size, the kind of debris, how many days you keep it, and the disposal fees Kern County charges at its facilities. Keep scrolling for our price ranges, street permit steps, the items California keeps out of the trash, and where your load ends up.

A handful of things decide what a Delano rental costs you.
The container comes first. Renting more space than you need wastes money, and renting too little means overage charges or a second haul.
Weight comes next. Kern County charges by the ton, and it sets a higher per-ton fee for construction and demolition debris than for ordinary household trash. Clean dirt, rock, and concrete cost far less to dump when they're kept apart from everything else. Tires are charged by the piece, so tell us about them up front.
The facility matters too. Most Delano loads go to the county's McFarland-Delano Transfer Station on Stradley Avenue. Because it's a transfer station, commercial loads pay a small extra per-ton charge on top of the usual county fee. Kern County sets those fees, not your hauler.
Finally, the county adds a penalty for any load that shows up untarped or loose, so every container we haul is covered for the trip. Your account manager will explain which fees apply to your debris before the container arrives.

Think about both the amount of debris and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards for Delano jobs.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a single room remodel, a shed teardown, or a load of broken concrete from an old patio. Heavy material like that fills the weight allowance long before it fills the container, so a small size is the smart pick.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage or storage room cleanout, new flooring throughout a house, or a small reroof. It gives you breathing room without a big price jump.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size Delano homeowners pick most for a full house cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles additions, new home construction, and gutting a larger building with mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest option. Contractors use it for commercial builds, warehouse and packing shed cleanouts, and large demolition work.
Still deciding? Walk your account manager through the project, and they'll point you to the right size.
A dumpster on private property, such as your driveway, side yard, or a fenced job site, usually doesn't need a permit in Delano. Things change when any part of the container sits on a City street, alley, or sidewalk.
Work in the public right-of-way goes through the City of Delano Engineering Department. The City handles encroachment permits through its SmartGov online permit system, where you can sign up, apply, and track your request.
The City doesn't post a fee or a review time for street placement, so ask before you book a delivery date. Call the Engineering Department at 661-721-3380. The office is on the second floor of City Hall at 1015 11th Avenue.
If you're not sure whether your drop spot counts as right-of-way, your account manager can help you find the right City contact.
Most remodeling, cleanout, and yard debris can go in your container. California's statewide rules and the county transfer station set the limits.
California bans a long list of household items from the trash. The state's recycling agency, CalRecycle, lists waste banned from the trash, including batteries of every kind, fluorescent tubes, latex and oil-based paint, solvents, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil and filters, and tires. Treated lumber, propane tanks, and anything with mercury are on it too. So are TVs, monitors, computers, microwaves, and cell phones.
Older building materials need extra care. Asbestos can show up in some older cement, roofing, flooring, and siding, and it can't go in a standard dumpster.
The McFarland-Delano Transfer Station also turns away hazardous waste, hot ashes, and liquids of any kind. Keep tires and appliances out of the main load and mention them when you book, since the county handles them apart from mixed debris.
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.
Most dumpster loads from Delano go to the McFarland-Delano Transfer Station at 11249 Stradley Avenue, Delano, CA 93215. Kern County Public Works runs it as one of its eight transfer stations, alongside six county landfills. Debris is weighed and consolidated there, then trucked onward.
The station keeps an unusual schedule. It's open Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and closed Tuesday and Wednesday. It also closes on New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. The county's facility page lists what it takes, and you can reach the station at 661-862-8900.
It accepts household trash, construction and demolition debris, green waste, clean inerts, appliances, tires, and electronics. That covers nearly any mixed load from a Delano home or job site. Your account manager will confirm where your load is headed and walk you through the fees before delivery.
11249 Stradley Avenue, Delano, CA 93215
Open Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; closed Tuesday and Wednesday.
Most Delano rentals can be booked within one to two business days, with the container showing up in a 24 to 48 hour window. Giving us a few days' notice leaves time to handle any street permit and prep the spot.
A few habits make delivery easier:
Plan around the transfer station's closed days, too. Because it shuts on Tuesday and Wednesday, a container filled on a Monday evening may wait until Thursday to be hauled.

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.
Most Delano rentals run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard dumpster up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard dumpster, based on a five-day rental. Your debris type and Kern County's per-ton disposal fees shape the final number. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rates before you book.
For a small pile of household trash, driving it to the transfer station yourself can be cheap, since the county takes residential household trash at no charge. Remodel debris is another story. It's charged by the ton, the station is closed two days a week, and a big job means many trips. One dumpster usually saves you time and money.
Yes, with plenty of room left. A standard three-cushion couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard container. You could add a mattress, a couple of chairs, and a stack of bagged clutter. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll fill the space before the weight becomes an issue.
In Delano, leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, batteries, and asbestos. California also bans TVs, computers, fluorescent tubes, treated lumber, and propane tanks from the trash. Tires and appliances should be set aside and mentioned when you book so they can be handled separately.
Our 10-yard dumpster has the lowest price, starting at $399 to $499. The weight of your debris still matters, since Kern County charges disposal by the ton. A small container packed with concrete or tile can go over its allowance fast, so keeping heavy material in its own load helps you save.
Three days usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental, because we price by the job instead of by the day. How much your debris weighs has a bigger effect on the bill. Ask your account manager about the included tonnage and any charge for keeping the container longer.
Most everyday debris is fine, including lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, cardboard, and yard waste. Broken concrete, dirt, and rock are allowed too, and they often cost less to dispose of when kept in a clean load of their own. If you have a question about an item, your account manager can confirm it before you load.
