At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Galt, California, and the southern Sacramento County communities along Highway 99 in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New subdivisions, kitchen and bath remodels, garage and barn cleanouts, and ongoing construction on the city's edges all keep roll-off containers in demand.
Your cost is shaped by the container size, the type of debris, how long you keep it, and the disposal fees where the load ends up. Galt also has an unusual rule about who may place debris containers in town, and we explain it below along with prices, street permits, and what stays out of the trash.

Four things decide most of what a dumpster costs in and around Galt.
First is size. Larger containers cost more, though a size that's too small can mean a second haul and a bigger bill.
Second is weight. Tile, plaster, and concrete are heavy, and disposal is charged by the ton. Tires and appliances often carry their own fees, so tell us about them when you call.
Third is disposal. Sacramento County's Kiefer Landfill fee sheet lists regular trash at $61.35 per ton for 2026, with a $45 minimum charge. Those are the county's fees, not our rental prices.
Fourth is where the container goes. Inside Galt city limits, the City runs debris container service through a franchise, and a spot on the street is hard to get approved. Both rules are covered in the permit section below.

Picking a size is about both space and weight. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster handles a single-room remodel, such as pulling out cabinets, a toilet, and a vanity. It's also the right call for broken concrete or brick, since heavy rubble reaches the weight limit before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster fits a garage cleanout or a shingle tear-off, where the debris takes up space but doesn't weigh a lot.
The 20-Yard Dumpster covers a full interior gut or a whole-house cleanout. Watch the weight with old tile and plaster, which can hit the limit before the container fills.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for new home construction, large additions, and demolition with mixed materials.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest size, meant for commercial builds and large demolition or cleanout jobs.
Tell your account manager about the job, and they'll recommend a size that fits your driveway as well as your debris.
If your container stays fully on private property, like your driveway, you don't need a City permit in Galt. Anything that reaches into the street or sidewalk is a different matter.
The City requires an encroachment permit to place or work in its right-of-way. Its own FAQ warns that, because of stormwater protection practices, the City will most likely not approve a permit for placing materials on the street or sidewalk. In practice, plan on keeping the container on your driveway or job site.
Galt Public Works handles these permits from 495 Industrial Drive. The office is open Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and closed on Fridays. Call 209-366-7260 with questions about your address.
Galt also has a hauler rule to know about. The City has an exclusive agreement with its franchise hauler for collection services, and it says only debris boxes rented from that hauler are permitted in city limits. Before you book, your account manager will confirm how this rule applies to your address. For projects outside city limits, they can help you find the right county contact.
Most debris from a remodel, a build, or a cleanout can go in your container. California's hazardous waste rules set the main limits.
CalRecycle keeps a long list of household items out of the regular trash statewide. It includes all batteries, fluorescent and other lamps, pesticides and other garden chemicals, oil-based paint, motor oil and filters, antifreeze, and tires. Propane tanks and other gas cylinders are on it too, along with wood treated with chemical preservatives and anything containing mercury.
Old electronics count as hazardous in California, so TVs, monitors, and laptops go to e-waste recycling instead of a dumpster.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either. Galt residents can take household chemicals to the Special Waste Collection Center in Elk Grove at no charge, under a City contract. The City asks residents to limit visits to once a month and keep each load under 15 gallons or 125 pounds.
When you're not sure about an item, ask your account manager 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.
Trash collected inside Galt goes to a state-permitted recovery facility at 175 Enterprise Court, which CalRecycle lists as active and permitted. The City's franchise hauler runs it, and it sorts recyclables out before the rest is sent on.
Sacramento County's own disposal site is Kiefer Landfill at 12701 Kiefer Blvd., Sloughhouse, CA 95683. It's open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and on weekends from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and you should arrive at least 15 minutes before closing. The landfill's phone number is 916-875-5555. Kiefer also asks that every load arrive covered or secured.
Where a load goes depends on the address and the rules that apply there. Your account manager will confirm the destination for your debris and explain any disposal fees before delivery.

Keep office hours in mind, too. Galt Public Works is closed on Fridays, so questions about a street spot should go in by Thursday afternoon.

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.
Rentals around Galt 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. Your debris type and the disposal fee per ton also affect the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage, the overage rate, and whether local hauler rules apply to your address.
For jobs bigger than one or two pickup loads, a dumpster usually costs less. Kiefer Landfill charges by the ton with a minimum fee on every trip, and it's a long drive from Galt. Inside city limits, the City also offers each home one small bulky-item container a year for light debris.
Yes, easily. A three-seat couch takes up roughly one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so there's space left for a mattress, a bed frame, and bags of smaller items. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll run out of room before you get close to the weight limit.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of any dumpster in Galt. California also bans batteries, lamps, motor oil, tires, gas cylinders, treated wood, and electronics from the trash. Galt residents can take household chemicals to the Elk Grove collection center for free.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. Your final bill still depends on the weight of what you load, since disposal is charged by the ton. Keeping heavy material like concrete in a separate load can help. Your account manager will also confirm the local hauler rules first.
In most cases, a three-day rental costs the same as our standard five-day rental. Dumpsters are priced per job, and your debris weight has more effect on the final number than the days do. Ask your account manager how much weight is included and what an extra ton would cost.
Most construction and household debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, roofing, furniture, carpet, and yard waste. Clean dirt and concrete are accepted too, though they're heavy. If you're unsure about something, your account manager can confirm whether it's allowed before you load it.
