Your Jonesborough dumpster price comes down to a few local factors.
Size sets the starting point. A larger container costs more, but squeezing a big job into a small one usually ends in a second haul and a higher total.
Weight is just as important. Old plaster, brick, stone, and roofing from older homes are heavy. Each rental includes a weight allowance, and extra tons are billed separately.
The landfill trip matters too. Jonesborough has no landfill inside town, so loads usually head to the landfill on East Main Street in Johnson City. It sets its own rates by material, so heavy or mixed debris can cost more to drop off.
Town rules also play a part. The Town of Jonesborough doesn't pick up construction waste, and its code makes removal the job of the contractor or owner. A roll-off container on Town property also needs the Director of Solid Waste's approval first.

Your size depends on how much debris you'll create and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom update, an attic cleanout, or a small landscaping job. It's also the right choice for brick, stone, and concrete, which hit the weight limit before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works for a garage cleanout, flooring removal, or a small roof. You get more room without paying for a large container.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a popular size in Jonesborough for whole-house cleanouts, estate cleanouts, and remodels that cover a few rooms. It handles most household projects.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is built for major renovations, new home construction, and barn or outbuilding tear-downs. It holds plenty of mixed, bulky debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It suits commercial construction, big demolition jobs, and large business cleanouts.
Still deciding? Your account manager can talk through the project with you and suggest a size.
If your roll-off sits on private property, like your driveway or a job site, you generally won't need a permit in Jonesborough. Things change if the container needs to go on a Town street or right-of-way.
The Town's code says any roll-off container placed on Town right-of-way during a construction project must be approved in advance by the Director of Solid Waste and Recycling. Public safety staff may help decide whether the spot is safe for drivers and people walking by. The code also bars anyone from blocking streets, sidewalks, or gutters without the Town's permission.
To ask about a street placement, call the Jonesborough Solid Waste Department at 423-753-1006. It's smart to call before you pick a delivery date.
If you aren't sure whether your spot is on Town land, your account manager can help you find the right contact.
Most household and construction debris is fine. The limits come from Tennessee's landfill rules and from what the Town counts as hazardous.
The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation says whole tires can't be buried in a Tennessee landfill. Keep tires out of your container. Washington County runs a tire recycling center in Kingsport.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster. The Town also treats used motor oil, antifreeze, pesticides, aerosols, batteries, and items with mercury as hazardous. Electronics are on that list too, so recycle TVs and computers instead.
Washington County holds hazardous waste collection days, usually twice a year. For brush and yard waste, the Town runs a drop-off at 101 Britt Drive. If you're not sure 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.
The Town of Jonesborough collects household and business trash, but it doesn't provide roll-off service. The Town's solid waste page says roll-off containers come from Johnson City or private haulers, and Washington County's convenience centers take residential trash only.
Most roll-off loads from Jonesborough go to the landfill at 1705 E. Main St., Johnson City, TN 37601. Washington County lists it as open Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 7 to 11 a.m. The phone number for rules and rates is 423-926-8375.
The landfill sets its own rules for building materials and charges based on what you bring. Your account manager can confirm where your load is going and explain the fees before your container arrives.
We can usually schedule a Jonesborough dumpster within one to two business days, with delivery in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking ahead gives you time to get approval for a street spot and prepare the drop area. It can also save you money.
Some tips before delivery day:
The landfill closes at 11 a.m. on Saturdays and doesn't open on Sundays, so a container filled over the weekend is usually hauled 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.
A dumpster in Jonesborough costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, based on a five-day rental. Debris weight and landfill fees can change your total. Your account manager will confirm the weight allowance and overage rate when you book.
For a single pickup load, driving to the landfill may be fine. For anything bigger, a dumpster usually costs less. The county centers don't take construction debris, so self-hauling means repeat trips to Johnson City. A dumpster handles the whole job in one haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch uses about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, leaving room for a bed frame, a dresser, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll run out of space before you get near the weight limit.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of a Jonesborough dumpster. Tennessee also bans whole tires from landfills, and the Town treats electronics, batteries, motor oil, and antifreeze as hazardous. Ask your account manager how to handle any of these items.
The 10-yard dumpster is the least expensive, at $399 to $499. Weight still decides your final price. A small container filled with brick or concrete can go over its limit and pick up overage fees. Putting heavy debris in its own load often costs less.
Three days usually costs the same as five. We price each rental by the job, not the day, so a shorter rental rarely saves money. Weight has more effect on your bill, so ask your account manager about the tonnage included.
Most home and building debris is allowed in a Jonesborough dumpster, including lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. Concrete and brick are fine in a smaller container. Brush can also go to the Town's drop-off. Check with your account manager if you're unsure about an item.
