At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Glen Cove, New York, and the surrounding North Shore of Nassau County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Older homes near the waterfront, a busy downtown, and steady renovation and construction work keep containers moving here. Kitchen remodels, basement cleanouts, roof replacements, and estate sales are some of the most common jobs.
What you pay depends on the size, the kind of debris, the number of days you keep the container, and the disposal fees where the load is dropped. Below, you'll find our price ranges, the City's street permit rules, what New York keeps out of the trash, and what happens to your debris after pickup.

A few things set the price of a Glen Cove dumpster.
Size comes first. A bigger container costs more, but the right size keeps you from paying overage charges or booking a second haul.
Weight comes next. Plaster, shingles, brick, and tile are heavy and use up your tonnage fast. Couches, boxes, and old toys are bulky but light.
Where the container sits can add cost. A dumpster on your driveway needs no City permit. One on a City street needs a Temporary Obstruction of Highway permit, which costs $100.00 and lasts 60 days from the day it's issued.
The City's trash pickup has limits too. Public Works takes up to four 30-gallon cans per collection day, each weighing no more than 75 pounds. It won't pick up bricks, plaster, shingles, concrete, or other remodeling waste, which must be removed by a private contractor. For a renovation or a large cleanout, a dumpster is usually the easiest way to go.

The right size depends on the amount of debris and its weight. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a bathroom remodel, a small room cleanout, or a pile of broken concrete from a walkway. It's also the easiest size to fit on a narrow driveway, which can help you avoid a street permit.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is a good fit for a garage or basement cleanout, flooring removal, or a small roof tear-off.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice in Glen Cove for whole-house cleanouts and remodels that touch several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for big renovations, additions, and new home construction.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It's meant for commercial work, demolition, and large estate cleanouts.
Describe your project to your account manager, and they'll help you pick the size that fits.
Glen Cove makes this easy to answer. The City says residents may keep a dumpster on private property, such as a driveway, without a City permit.
If the container needs to go on a City street, you'll need a Permit for the Temporary Obstruction of Highway. Start by calling the Department of Public Works at 516-676-4402. Give them the street and exact spot, the purpose of the container, your name and phone number, and the dumpster company's name and number. A City inspector then visits to make sure the spot is safe.
Once the spot is approved, the City's permit costs $100.00 and runs 60 days. The container must show the company name and have reflectors. The company or the resident also sends in a certificate of insurance naming the City as additionally insured. Longer jobs need a written renewal application for each extra 30 days.
Permit applications are handled on the third floor of City Hall, Room 301, at 9 Glen Street. For questions, call 516-676-4278. Your account manager can help you pull the permit details together before delivery.
Most construction and household debris can go in your container. New York's disposal rules and the receiving facility set the limits.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation says that since January 1, 2015, many electronics can't be thrown away in the trash or at a landfill. That includes TVs, computers, monitors, printers, and game consoles. The state also bars burying waste tires, and tire shops must take back used tires when you buy new ones.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either. Glen Cove holds a STOP day twice a year for household chemicals, and an E-Waste day for TVs, computers, and batteries.
If you're not sure 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.
Most roll-off loads from Glen Cove go to the privately run transfer station at 100 Morris Avenue.
The City's own DPW Yard shares that address, at 100 Morris Avenue, Glen Cove, NY 11542. The City's Public Works page says residents with ID can drop grass clippings there, and the yard hosts the City's STOP and E-Waste days. In 2026, the E-Waste Program runs on April 18 and September 19. For metal pickups and yard questions, call 516-676-4858.
The City's curbside crews don't handle remodeling debris, so a roll-off container is the usual route for that material. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and walk you through the fees before delivery.
100 Morris Avenue, Glen Cove, NY 11542
City yard for resident grass clippings and the twice-yearly STOP and E-Waste days.
Most Glen Cove dumpster rentals can be booked within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If the container has to go on the street, allow extra time for the City inspection and permit.
A few tips for a smooth delivery:
Public Works keeps office hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. If you need a street permit, call early in the week so the inspection can happen before your delivery date.

Our Glen Cove prices run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard dumpster up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Your total also depends on your debris and disposal fees. If the container goes on the street, the City's permit is extra. Your account manager confirms everything when you book.
For a few bags, the City's curbside pickup may be enough. But the City won't take remodeling debris like plaster, shingles, or concrete, and it limits cans each week. For a real project, a dumpster saves you many trips, the gas, and the hours spent unloading.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills only about one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. That leaves room for a mattress, a dresser, some chairs, and a stack of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so space runs out long before weight becomes a concern.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos. New York bans TVs, computers, and monitors from the trash, and the state bars burying tires. Glen Cove's STOP and E-Waste days take many of these items. Ask your account manager about anything else.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. Keeping it on your driveway also avoids the City's street permit. Heavy debris like brick or tile can push a small container past its weight limit, so keep dense material in its own load when you can.
A three-day rental typically costs the same as a five-day rental. We price by the job, not by the day, so your debris weight matters more than the number of days. Ask your account manager about the included weight and any charge for extra days.
Most household and construction debris is allowed. That includes lumber, drywall, plaster, flooring, cabinets, roofing, furniture, and general junk. Brick and concrete are fine too, though they're heavy, so a smaller container often works best. Your account manager can check any item before you load it.
