At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Hammond, Louisiana, and the rest of Tangipahoa Parish in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Hammond sits where I-12 meets I-55, and the warehouses, medical offices, and student housing built around that crossroads keep construction crews busy. Older homes near downtown and the university add roof work, gut remodels, and cleanouts after every storm season.
Your price comes down to the size of the container, what you put in it, how long you keep it, and the parish landfill's charge per ton. Below you'll find our price ranges, who to call about street placement, what Louisiana keeps out of landfills, and where your debris goes.

Local details shape what a container costs in Hammond.
Size comes first. A container that holds the whole job beats paying for a second pull halfway through the week.
Weight follows close behind. The parish landfill charges $45.58 per ton for construction and demolition debris, and commercial trucks pay the commercial rate no matter what they bring. Shingles and wet sheetrock are heavy, so a roof job runs up tonnage quickly.
Distance counts too. Loads from Hammond travel up to the landfill near Independence, roughly 18 miles north, and every trip adds drive time to the cost of a pull.
Storm season can matter as well. After a big wind or rain event, containers move fast in Tangipahoa Parish, and booking early is what keeps a job on schedule. Your account manager will go through all of this with you.

Start with the amount of debris, then think about how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster works for a bathroom tear-out, a small shed, or storm cleanup in the yard. It's also the size for concrete and brick, which reach the weight limit fast.
The 15-Yard Dumpster fits a kitchen remodel, a packed garage, or flooring pulled from several rooms. You get a lot more space for a small step up in cost.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Hammond homeowners choose. It handles a full-house cleanout or a tear-off on an average roof.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits additions, gut jobs, and new home construction. Builders use it when debris is bulky and comes in every shape.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It's meant for commercial construction, warehouse cleanouts, and demolition near the interstates.
Not sure which one fits? Tell your account manager about the job, and they'll help you choose.
If your container sits on private property, like a driveway or a job site, you generally won't need a City permit in Hammond. Check with the City before any part of it reaches a street, sidewalk, or public right-of-way.
The City doesn't publish a separate dumpster permit. The City Street Department maintains the roads, drainage, and signs inside the city and works with Tangipahoa Parish and the state highway department on roads they own, so a call there answers most placement questions.
Reach the Street Department at 985-277-5957, weekdays from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. For building permits on the project itself, the Building Department on East Robert Street is at 985-277-5655. Your account manager can help you find the right contact before your delivery date.
Most construction and cleanout debris is fine to load. The limits come from Louisiana's landfill rules and from what the parish landfill accepts.
Louisiana bans several household items from landfills. Lead-acid batteries, used oil, whole tires, and small sealed lead-acid batteries all have to be recycled or dropped somewhere else. Tires have their own limit at the parish landfill as well.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either. The parish landfill turns away hazardous waste, industrial oil, grease, farm chemicals like fertilizer and pesticide, regulated asbestos material, and burn barrels. Paint is only accepted when it's fully dried out with the lid off.
If you're unsure about an item, ask your account manager before it goes in the container.
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 debris from Hammond jobs goes to the Tangipahoa Parish Landfill at 57510 Hano Road, Independence, LA 70442. The Parish runs it under a permit from the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, and it takes both household and commercial waste as well as construction and demolition debris.
The landfill is open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday from 7 a.m. to noon, and it's closed on Sunday. You can check details on the Parish landfill page or call 985-878-4403.
Every load is weighed, so the tonnage decides the disposal charge rather than how full the container looks. Your account manager will confirm where your load is headed and explain the fees before delivery.
57510 Hano Road, Independence, LA 70442
Parish landfill open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday until noon.
Most Hammond rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking early is smart in storm season and whenever a street placement needs a call to the City first.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
Keep the landfill's hours in mind too. It closes at noon on Saturday and doesn't open Sunday, so a container filled over the weekend usually goes out Monday morning.

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.
A Hammond rental runs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. The weight of your debris and the parish landfill's per-ton charge also affect the total. Your account manager will confirm the included tonnage and overage rate when you book.
For most projects, renting costs less. The parish landfill is about 18 miles north of Hammond, so each self-haul trip means loading, driving, weighing, and unloading by hand. One container clears the job in a single pull.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container. That leaves space for a mattress, a chair, and a stack of boxes. Furniture runs out of room long before it approaches the weight limit.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. Louisiana also bans used oil, lead-acid batteries, and whole tires from landfills, and the parish site refuses farm chemicals and industrial grease. Ask your account manager where those belong.
Our 10-yard container has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. What you load still decides the final bill. Concrete, brick, or wet debris can push a small container past its weight limit. Keeping heavy material in its own load usually saves money.
Three days normally costs the same as our five-day rental, because we price the job rather than the day. The weight of your load matters far more than the calendar. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs.
Most home and construction debris is allowed in a Hammond dumpster, including lumber, sheetrock, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, carpet, and furniture. Clean concrete and brick are accepted as well. Check anything unusual with your account manager before it goes in.
