Here's what goes into the price of a dumpster in Glen Ellyn.
Container size comes first. A bigger dumpster costs more, but going too small can mean overage fees or a second pickup.
Weight follows close behind. Brick, tile, plaster, and shingles are dense, and they reach the weight allowance while the container still looks half empty.
Distance plays a part as well. DuPage County has no operating landfills, so debris is trucked to transfer stations and then on to landfills outside the county.
Placement can add a Village fee. The Village's Schedule of Fees and Deposits lists right-of-way obstructions at $50 per day for the street. A sidewalk or parking stall costs $25, plus $5.00 for each extra day. A container on your own driveway avoids those charges.

Pick your size based on weight as well as volume. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster handles a single room stripped to the studs or a small bathroom remodel. Choose it for brick, tile, or plaster, which hit the weight limit long before the container fills up.
The 15-Yard Dumpster fits a garage cleanout or a single-layer roof tear-off. It gives you more room without a large jump in price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster takes the carpet, trim, and cabinets from a mid-size remodel. It's a common pick for Glen Ellyn whole-home cleanouts.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for major renovations, additions, and new home builds with lots of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the biggest size we offer. It's made for commercial construction, teardowns, and large demolition jobs.
If you're unsure, describe the project to your account manager, and they'll suggest a size.
If your dumpster sits on private property, like your driveway or yard, you generally won't need a permit in Glen Ellyn. Public property is a different story.
The Village's list of work that requires a building permit includes any work on public property or in the street, sidewalk, or parkway right-of-way. A container placed in any of those spots falls under that rule, and the Village also charges its obstruction fees for the street, sidewalk, or a parking stall.
Permits come from the Community Development Department at 535 Duane Street. Call 630-547-5250 with questions, and apply before you set a delivery date so the container doesn't arrive early.
Not sure whether your spot counts as parkway? Your account manager can help you reach the right Village contact.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris is fine to load. Illinois law and the facility that takes your load set the limits.
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency says state law prohibits landfilling many common electronics, including televisions and computers. The state also bans used and waste tires from landfills. Keep both out of your dumpster.
Glen Ellyn residents have a local option for electronics. The Village's electronics recycling page explains special pickups through its curbside hauler, priced at $33.80 for a TV or monitor under 25 inches and $54.08 for larger ones.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos don't belong in a standard dumpster. The Village points residents to the household hazardous waste facility in Naperville for paint and chemicals.
Ask your account manager about any item you're unsure of 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.
DuPage County has no operating landfills. Instead, trash is hauled to transfer stations, where it's weighed and loaded onto larger trucks for landfills outside the county.
One of the nearest is the transfer station at 1995 Powis Road in West Chicago, about 8 miles from Glen Ellyn. Kane County's drop-off directory lists its hours as Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 7 to 11 a.m. It accepts trash, appliances, and bulky items.
For the items that can't go in your container, the Naperville Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 156 Fort Hill Drive, Naperville, IL 60540, takes paint, automotive fluids, and other household chemicals. The City of Naperville's facility page says it's free for Illinois residents and open Saturday and Sunday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Your account manager will confirm where your dumpster is headed and explain any fees before delivery.
156 Fort Hill Drive, Naperville, IL 60540
Free for Illinois residents, Saturday and Sunday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., for paint and household chemicals.
Most dumpster rentals in Glen Ellyn can be booked within one to two business days, and the container shows up in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days early gives you time to handle a Village permit and get the driveway ready.
These tips help things go smoothly:
Plan around the weekend, too. The West Chicago transfer station closes at 11 a.m. on Saturday and stays closed on Sunday, so a container filled on Saturday afternoon usually leaves on Monday.

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.
Our dumpster rentals in Glen Ellyn range 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 and the disposal fees where it goes also shape the total. Your account manager confirms tonnage and overage rates.
For most projects, a dumpster is the better choice. With no landfill in DuPage County, hauling it yourself means repeat drives to a transfer station, a fee each time, and lost hours. A dumpster sits in your driveway while you work, and we take it all away at once.
Yes. A three-seat couch uses about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so there's still room for a mattress, a couple of chairs, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but not heavy, so you'll fill the space well before you hit the weight limit.
Leave hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos out of your dumpster. Illinois also bans TVs, computers, and tires from landfills. Take paint and chemicals to the free Naperville household hazardous waste facility, and use the Village's electronics pickup for old TVs.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced option, at $399 to $499. Weight still matters most for your final bill. A small container packed with tile or shingles can cost more than a bigger one full of furniture, so tell us what you're getting rid of.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental, since we price by the job, not by the day. Your debris weight has a bigger effect on the bill. If the container sits in the street, though, the Village's fee is charged per day.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris is allowed, including drywall, lumber, flooring, cabinets, roofing, brick, concrete, furniture, and household clutter. Heavy material like brick and concrete works best in a smaller container. Your account manager can check any item you're not sure about.
