| 30-Yard Dumpster | $599–$799 | 22' L × 8' W × 6' H | Major renovations, new residential construction, large commercial projects |

These are the local details that shape a King City dumpster price.
The size you choose sets the starting point. A bigger container costs more, but one that's too small can mean paying for a second haul.
Weight is the next piece, because the local transfer station charges by weight. The Salinas Valley Solid Waste Authority's 2026 rate sheet lists $70.00 per ton for trash and construction debris in loads of 1,000 pounds or more at the Jolon Road Transfer Station. Green waste and wood run $63.00 per ton, so keeping them separate saves a little. An untarped load pays an extra 50 percent.
A few materials cost less or nothing to drop off. The station takes up to 10 mattresses and box springs in recyclable condition, along with computers, old tube TVs, and appliances without refrigerant, at no charge.
The City's garbage franchise matters too. King City runs trash and bin service, including roll-off containers, through an exclusive franchise. Your account manager will confirm how that applies to your project before anything is booked.

The right size depends on how much debris you'll have and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is good for a bathroom remodel, a bedroom cleanout, or clearing out an old shed. It's also the right choice for concrete, brick, or dirt, which get heavy long before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage cleanout, a flooring tear-out, or a small roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a popular King City choice for emptying a whole house or remodeling several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits bigger renovations, additions, new homes, and demolition with mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It's meant for commercial construction, large demolition projects, and major property cleanups.
Walk your account manager through the job, and they'll suggest the right size.
If your dumpster sits on private property, like a driveway or a job site, the City doesn't require a permit. If it sits in a street, alley, sidewalk, or planting strip, you'll need an encroachment permit.
King City's Public Works Department issues encroachment permits. The City's Master Fee Schedule, effective January 15, 2025, lists the general encroachment permit at $414.00 per application, plus staff time at actual cost with a 5 percent administrative fee. You apply through the City's online permit portal.
The City doesn't post a review time for these permits, so ask before you set a delivery date. Public Works is at 212 S. Vanderhurst Avenue. Call 831-385-3281.
If you're not sure whether your spot counts as public right-of-way, your account manager can help you reach the right City contact.
Most construction and household debris is fine to load. California's hazardous waste rules and the local disposal sites set the limits.
CalRecycle, the state's recycling agency, says it's illegal to throw hazardous waste in the garbage. That covers batteries, fluorescent lights, paint and solvents, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil, and propane tanks. Electronics, treated lumber, and asbestos are on the state's list too, and tires are banned from the trash even though they aren't hazardous.
Locally, the Authority's rate sheet shows that the Jolon Road station runs a free drop-off for Authority residents for antifreeze, batteries, motor oil, and latex paint, up to 5 gallons. Refrigerators cost $15.00 each because the refrigerant has to be removed, and ammonia-based appliances aren't accepted at all.
Concrete, asphalt, and clean fill dirt aren't priced at the King City station. They go to the Authority's landfill in Gonzales instead, with approval first. Liquids and fuel stay out of any standard dumpster.
If you're unsure about an item, ask your account manager 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.
King City belongs to the Salinas Valley Solid Waste Authority, a public agency shared by the cities of Gonzales, Greenfield, King City, Salinas, and Soledad and part of Monterey County. The City's refuse and recycling page points residents to the Authority's drop-off site in town.
The Jolon Road Transfer Station is at 52654 Jolon Road, King City, CA 93930. It's open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to noon. Call 831-385-0353.
Materials the King City station doesn't price, like concrete, asphalt, fill dirt, and nonfriable asbestos, go to the Johnson Canyon Landfill at 31400 Johnson Canyon Road, Gonzales, CA 93926, about 30 miles up the valley. It's open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and weekends, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call 831-675-2165.
Both sites charge by weight and add a surcharge for loads that aren't tarped. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going, how the City's franchise applies, and what the fees are before delivery.

Where Prime Dumpster can serve your project, most rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Allow a little extra time for the franchise check and any encroachment permit.
Tips to help your delivery go smoothly:
The Jolon Road station closes at noon on Saturdays and stays closed on Sundays, while the Gonzales landfill stays open all weekend. A load finished late in the week may head up the valley or wait until 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 ranges 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. Disposal is charged by weight locally, and the City's franchise rule affects who can place a container, so your account manager confirms the details first.
For one small load, driving it to Jolon Road is often cheap, since loads under 500 pounds have a flat minimum charge. For a remodel or a big cleanup, a dumpster usually wins once you count repeated trips, time, and the per-ton rate on heavier loads.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up only about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so there's plenty of room for chairs, a bed frame, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, which means the container usually fills up before the weight becomes a concern.
Keep hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, batteries, motor oil, propane tanks, and asbestos out of your dumpster. California also bans tires, treated lumber, and electronics from the trash. Refrigerators need their refrigerant removed, so mention them when you book.
Our 10-yard dumpster has the lowest price, at $399 to $499. Local disposal is charged by the ton, though, so a small container full of tile or concrete can go over its allowance. Keeping heavy debris in its own load often saves money.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as our five-day rental, since dumpsters are priced by the job. The weight of your debris affects the bill more than the number of days. Your account manager will also confirm how the City's franchise applies to your job.
Most project debris is fine, including drywall, lumber, flooring, cabinets, roofing, furniture, and general junk. Green waste and untreated wood are allowed too and cost a bit less to dispose of when kept apart. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
