A handful of things shape what you'll pay for a dumpster in Fernley.
Size is the first. A bigger container costs more, but it's cheaper than a second haul when a smaller one fills up early.
Weight is the second. Tile, stucco, concrete, and roofing shingles get heavy fast, while furniture and cardboard mostly take up space.
Distance is the third. Lyon County has no landfill, so Fernley trash goes through a local transfer station before it's trucked out of the county to be buried. That extra handling is part of every quote here.
For small jobs, the City's curbside option is worth comparing. The City's trash resource guide lists bulky item pickup starting at $27.50 per cubic yard, or $20.66 for seniors on a fixed income. For a remodel or a full garage, a dumpster usually works out better.

Think about how heavy your debris is before you think about how much room it needs. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster handles one bathroom or bedroom taken down to the studs, or a patch of broken concrete. Heavy loads reach the weight limit well before this container looks full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster fits a shed tear-down, a garage cleanout, or a smaller roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common pick in Fernley for whole-house remodels, with cabinets, flooring, drywall, and trim going out together.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for new home builds, additions, and larger renovations.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest container. It's meant for commercial work, big demolition jobs, and large property cleanouts.
Tell your account manager about the project, and they'll help you pick the right size.
A dumpster on private property, such as your driveway or a job site, generally doesn't need a City permit in Fernley. If the container needs to sit in a street, alley, or on a sidewalk, plan on getting the City's approval first.
The City of Fernley's Engineering Department handles work within the City right-of-way, encroachments, and streets. The City's development services fee schedule, effective September 4, 2024, sets the encroachment permit fee at $300. The same schedule lists separate inspection fees for cutting or digging into the street, which a container sitting on the surface shouldn't need, but ask to be sure.
Call the Engineering Department at 775-784-9910 before you apply. The office is at 595 Silver Lace Boulevard, and City offices are open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. No review time is listed, so leave a few days before your delivery.
If you aren't sure where your property ends, your account manager can help you find the right City contact.
Most construction and household debris can go in your container. Nevada's rules and the local transfer station set the limits.
The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection says used oil and batteries are banned from landfills. Many auto parts stores take them back. Asbestos has its own strict rules for handling and disposal, and lead paint from sources other than a household has to be tested before it can be dumped.
Tires need special handling too. Nevada runs a waste tire program that steers tires toward recycling, so keep them out of your dumpster and ask us about options.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel can't go in a standard dumpster either. If you're unsure about an item, ask your account manager before you load 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.
The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection's list of permitted facilities shows five transfer stations in Lyon County, including one in Fernley, and no landfill anywhere in the county. The nearest permitted landfill that takes household trash is in neighboring Storey County.
Fernley's transfer station sits at 1100 US Highway 95A South. The City's guide lists it as open Tuesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a half-hour lunch closure at noon, and closed Sundays, Mondays, and holidays. The state also lists it as a drop-off site for recyclables.
Because every load is handled twice before it's buried, clean, sorted debris is easier to deal with. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and explain the disposal fees before delivery.
Most Fernley rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If you need an encroachment permit, call a few days sooner so Engineering has time to review it.
A few tips for an easy delivery:
The local transfer station is closed on Sundays and Mondays, so a container filled over the weekend may not be emptied until Tuesday.

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.
Dumpster rentals in Fernley run 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. Heavy debris and disposal fees at the transfer station affect the final price. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rates.
For bigger jobs, renting usually wins. Hauling it yourself means several trips to the transfer station, which is closed two days a week, plus a fee each time. A dumpster sits in your driveway while you work, and we haul everything away in one trip.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills only about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, leaving plenty of space for chairs, a mattress, shelves, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll run out of room before you get close to the weight limit.
In Fernley, keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos out of your dumpster. Nevada also bans used oil and batteries from landfills, and tires should go to recycling instead. Mention any appliances or tires when you book so we can plan for them.
The 10-yard dumpster is the lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. Your final bill depends on weight, though. A small container full of tile, stucco, or concrete can go over its allowance fast. Loading heavy material separately is an easy way to keep costs down.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental, because we price dumpsters by the job, not by the day. What you load changes the total far more than how long you keep it. Ask your account manager about extra days if you might need them.
Most construction and cleanout debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, stucco, flooring, cabinets, roofing, and furniture. Scrap metal can go in too, though local recyclers take metal and appliances separately. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
