Here's what shapes the cost of a dumpster in Los Banos.
The container size sets the starting price. Picking a size with a little room to spare is usually cheaper than paying for a second haul.
Weight comes next, since the county landfill weighs every load. Roofing, tile, and soil get heavy quickly, while furniture and cardboard are light for their size.
What's mixed into the load matters most here. The Merced County Regional Waste Management Authority's disposal rates charge $43.05 per ton for general trash, but $83.75 per ton when trash and organics like brush, grass, or food waste come in mixed. Keeping green waste out of your dumpster can save real money.
Some items are charged one at a time. The landfill adds a fee for each refrigerator, water heater, and tire, so mention those when you book.
Perfect For:
Weight Limit: Up to 2 tons (4,000 lbs)
Bags of Trash: Approximately 50-70 large trash bags.
Truck Loads: Roughly 3 pickup truck loads.
*These are general estimates and can vary depending on the type of trash being disposed of and how tightly it’s packed.

Because the landfill charges by weight, think about how dense your debris is before you think about volume. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a single-room remodel, a small bathroom, or a broken-up concrete patio. Dense loads like tile and soil hit the weight limit well before this container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is a good size for a garage cleanout, a flooring job, or a small roof tear-off.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is one of the most popular sizes in Los Banos for whole-house cleanouts and remodels that touch several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles larger renovations, additions, and new home construction with a lot of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It suits commercial construction, big demolition jobs, and large property cleanouts.
In residential zones the container has to fit on your driveway, so size matters for placement too. Your account manager can help you choose.
On private property, the rules are specific. In residential zones, the City's temporary use rules allow a construction waste container only on the driveway, not in a side yard, back yard, or the street. It must sit at least two feet from the property line and can't hang over the sidewalk. Each construction site gets one waste container.
The City also requires every construction waste container to be registered with the Community and Economic Development Department. The driveway rule applies to containers tied to an approved building permit and active work. Other uses may need a temporary use permit, so ask the City before a cleanout.
Street placement is the exception, not the rule. A waste container may sit at the curb directly in front of a construction site only with written approval from the Community and Economic Development Director. The Public Works Department notes that the City bars storing construction dumpsters in the right-of-way, and its encroachment permits go only to licensed contractors. Public Works is at 411 Madison Avenue and can be reached at 209-827-7056, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The City also runs solid waste collection through an exclusive franchise, so your account manager will confirm how that rule applies to your project before booking and help you reach the right City office.
Most construction and cleanout debris can go in your container. California's statewide rules and the county landfills set the limits.
CalRecycle lists items banned from the trash across the state. The list includes all batteries, fluorescent and LED lights, latex and oil-based paint, pool chemicals, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil, tires, asbestos, chemically treated wood, propane tanks, and electronics like TVs, computers, printers, and microwaves.
The county landfills also turn away asbestos, munitions, explosives, and other harmful items. They do accept small amounts of some household hazardous waste from residents, such as antifreeze, used motor oil, paint, and batteries, so those can go on a separate trip.
Hazardous waste, liquids, solvents, and fuel stay out of a standard dumpster. If you aren't sure about an item, ask your account manager before loading 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.
Loads from Los Banos go to Billy Wright Landfill at 17173 South Billy Wright Road, Los Banos, CA 93635. The Merced County Regional Waste Management Authority runs it. It's open Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and closed on Sundays. The phone number is 209-826-1163.
Every load is weighed, and the landfill charges less for clean loads than mixed ones. It takes clean, separated concrete and brick, asphalt, and cardboard at no charge when they're kept out of the trash, and residents can bring up to ten mattresses free. The Authority runs a second landfill on Highway 59 in Merced with the same fees.
Sorting heavy, clean material into its own load helps. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and walk you through the disposal fees before delivery.

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.
Dumpster rentals in Los Banos 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. What you load matters, since mixed trash and yard waste cost more to dispose of. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates.
For a single small load, driving to the landfill yourself can work. Each trip has a minimum charge, though, plus gas and a gate that closes midafternoon. For a remodel or a large cleanout, one dumpster usually costs less than a string of trips.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, with plenty of room left for a mattress, chairs, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll fill the space before you come close to the weight limit.
In Los Banos, keep batteries, paint, fluorescent and LED lights, pool chemicals, pesticides, motor oil, tires, propane tanks, asbestos, treated wood, and electronics out of your dumpster. California bans these from the trash. Also keep brush and grass separate, since mixed loads cost more at the landfill.
The 10-yard dumpster is the lowest-priced option, at $399 to $499. The final bill depends on weight and what's mixed in. A small container of tile can go over its allowance, and green waste mixed with trash costs more to dispose of. Clean, separated loads save money.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as our standard five-day rental. We price by the job, not the day, so the weight and makeup of your load matter more than the calendar. Ask your account manager about extra days if your project might run long.
Most household junk and construction debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, roofing, and furniture. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too, and they're cheaper to handle when kept apart from trash. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
