Ranch and outbuilding cleanouts, cabin and home remodels, roof jobs, and construction projects around this mountain town all create more debris than a pickup can carry.
Your cost depends on the container size, the type of debris, how long you keep it, and the disposal fees at the county site that takes the load. Below, you'll see our price ranges, what to know about street placement in Mackay, what to leave out, and when the local transfer site is open.

Several things affect what a dumpster costs in Mackay.
The size you choose comes first. A larger container costs more, but it's cheaper than a second haul if the first one comes up short. Out here, a second trip also means waiting for the transfer site to reopen.
The weight of your debris counts too. Concrete, rock, shingles, and tile are heavy, so a small container of dense material can use up its weight allowance quickly.
Custer County sets the disposal fees at its transfer sites, and it doesn't post them online. For current county rates, call the Custer County Clerk's office at 208-879-2360. Your account manager will build the local disposal cost into your quote.
Distance is part of the picture as well. Mackay sits far from the larger towns in eastern Idaho, so ask your account manager whether your delivery carries any travel charge before you book.

Match the container to both the amount of debris and how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster offers sizes from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a single room, a small bathroom tear-out, or a shed full of old junk. It's also the best choice for concrete, rock, or brick, since heavy loads hit the weight limit well before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage or barn cleanout, a small roof, or new flooring. It gives you extra room without much extra cost.
The 20-Yard Dumpster works well for emptying a whole house or cabin, or for a remodel that covers a few rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits big renovations, new construction, and teardown jobs that produce a lot of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. In a town of Mackay's size, it's usually meant for commercial work or a large demolition.
If you're weighing two sizes, tell your account manager about the job, and they'll help you pick the one that fits.
If the dumpster sits entirely on your private property, like a driveway, yard, or ranch lot, you likely won't need anything from the City. Placement on a street, alley, or sidewalk is where you'll want to check first.
Mackay's published ordinances don't include a dumpster or street-use permit, and the City's forms list doesn't have one either. That doesn't mean the street is open for a container. The City's Public Works Supervisor oversees city streets, and public works questions go through City Hall.
Call Mackay City Hall at 208-588-2274 before delivery if any part of the container will sit on public ground. City Hall is open Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., so plan your call early in the week.
If you're not sure where your property line falls, your account manager can help you reach the right City contact.
Most household, ranch, and remodeling debris can go in your container. The limits come from Idaho's rules and from what the county transfer site will accept.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster. Propane tanks and other pressurized cylinders need to stay out as well. Old fridges and freezers hold refrigerant, so mention them when you book.
Tires need a separate plan. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality requires landfills to shred or otherwise reduce tires before burying them, and it tells residents to ask their local site whether it takes tires and how many. Keep tires out of your dumpster unless your account manager has arranged for them.
Custer County doesn't post a list of refused items for its transfer sites. If you have something unusual, like a load of treated posts or an old water heater, 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.
Debris from Mackay goes to Custer County's Mackay Transfer Site, which keeps a limited schedule. According to the Custer County solid waste page, the site is open only on Tuesday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
That short schedule shapes your timeline. A container filled on a Wednesday may wait until Saturday to be emptied, and one filled on a Saturday evening may wait until the next Tuesday. The county's other transfer sites keep their own short schedules, too.
For county questions about the site, call the Custer County Clerk's office at 208-879-2360, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Your account manager will confirm where your load goes and explain the disposal costs before delivery.
Most dumpster rentals in Mackay can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Since Mackay is remote, calling a few extra days ahead gives you the best chance at the date you want.
These tips help your delivery go smoothly:
Remember that the Mackay Transfer Site is closed five days a week. Finishing your loading by a Tuesday or Saturday morning can help your container get emptied sooner.

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 Mackay 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 type, its weight, and Custer County's disposal fees also play a part. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates before you book.
For a job bigger than a couple of truckloads, a dumpster is usually the better deal. The Mackay Transfer Site opens only two days a week, so hauling it yourself means planning around that schedule and making several trips. A dumpster lets you load at your own pace.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, leaving room for a mattress, a recliner, and a pile of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll fill up the space long before the weight becomes a concern.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos. Tires and appliances with refrigerant need special handling, so mention them before delivery. Custer County doesn't post a full list of refused items, so check with your account manager if you're unsure about anything.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced option, at $399 to $499. It's a good deal for small jobs, but renting too small can mean a second haul, and here that second haul may wait for the transfer site to open. Choosing the right size up front often saves more.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as our five-day rental, because dumpsters are priced per job, not per day. How much your debris weighs matters more than how many days you keep the container. Ask your account manager about included tonnage and extra-day charges.
Most household junk, furniture, lumber, drywall, roofing, fencing, and yard debris can go in a dumpster. Construction and remodeling waste is fine too. Keep out hazardous products, liquids, and tires unless they've been arranged ahead of time, and ask your account manager about anything you're not sure of.
