At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Peoria, Illinois, and the rest of Peoria County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Peoria has a deep stock of older brick homes, bluff-top houses that need regular upkeep, and a busy mix of hospital, commercial, and construction projects. Homeowners, landlords, and contractors all lean on roll-off containers to keep those jobs moving.
The cost of your rental depends on the container size, the debris you're loading, the length of the rental, and the local disposal fees charged where your load ends up. Below, you'll find price ranges, the City's permit rules for streets and alleys, and a guide to what stays out of the dumpster.

Several local details shape what a dumpster costs in Peoria.
The container you choose sets the base price. Going one size larger than you think you need often costs less than paying for a second haul.
Your debris adds the next layer. Brick, plaster, and concrete from Peoria's older homes are heavy, and each rental comes with a set weight allowance. Pack a small dumpster with masonry, and you can go over that limit fast.
Where the load goes has changed recently. The Peoria City/County Landfill closed in April 2025, and loads now go through a transfer station on West Southport Road. Hauling from a transfer station adds a step, and that step is part of the disposal cost in your quote.
A street spot adds a small City fee. If the dumpster sits on a street or alley, you'll need a right-of-way permit that costs $20 for every thirty days. A metered space also needs a meter bag.

Picking the right size comes down to volume and weight. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a bathroom gut, a basement cleanup, or a pile of old patio pavers. It's also the smart choice for brick and concrete, since heavy loads hit their weight cap before the container is full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is a step up for a garage cleanout, a kitchen tear-out, or pulling carpet from a whole floor. It gives you breathing room without a big jump in price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice for estate cleanouts and multi-room remodels in Peoria's older neighborhoods. Most household projects fit inside it.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles additions, new home construction, and larger tear-outs. It's useful when your crew is producing a steady stream of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest option. It's meant for commercial work, full demolition, and large cleanouts at warehouses or plants.
If you're torn between two sizes, walk your account manager through the project, and they'll point you to the better fit.
You won't need a Public Works permit if the dumpster goes in your driveway or somewhere else on private property. For rules on keeping a container on private land, the City's Community Development office can help at 309-494-8600.
A dumpster on a City street or alley is different. The City of Peoria requires a right-of-way use permit from the Public Works Department's Permits Division. The permit comes with placement rules:
Applications go to the Permits Division at 3505 N. Dries Lane, Peoria, IL 61604. You can reach the office at 309-494-8800. Your account manager can help you figure out whether your spot is public right-of-way and who to call.
Most building debris and household junk is fine to load. The main limits come from Illinois rules on what landfills can take.
The Illinois EPA keeps several items out of landfills altogether. That list includes appliances, electronics, lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries, products with mercury, motor oil, oil-based paint, tires, and yard waste. If one of these ends up in your dumpster, it has to be pulled out before disposal.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either. Peoria County runs a household hazardous waste program for leftover chemicals.
Brush and leaves are a common surprise. Because yard waste is banned from Illinois landfills, keep it out of a mixed load and ask about a separate option.
Before you load anything you're unsure of, check with your account manager.
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 dumpster loads from Peoria go to the transfer station at 4349 W. Southport Road in Peoria. Peoria County set it up after the Peoria City/County Landfill closed in April 2025, and it will serve the area until a new landfill opens.
The transfer station takes construction debris. It's open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and on Saturday from 7 to 11:30 a.m. The county's landfill page notes that the last load is accepted 30 minutes before closing.
For you, this means a pickup late in the day or on a Saturday afternoon may not reach the scale until the next business day. Your account manager can confirm where your load is going and explain the disposal fees before delivery.
Peoria County also requires a county hauler license for every truck that collects debris in the county. Your account manager can confirm how that rule applies to your job before you book.
Most Peoria rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the truck arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a little earlier gives you time to get a street permit and prep the drop spot.
Keep these tips in mind:
The transfer station closes at 11:30 a.m. on Saturdays and doesn't open on Sundays, so weekend pickups often 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.
A dumpster in Peoria costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Your debris and the disposal fees at the transfer station can move that number. Your account manager confirms the weight allowance and any overage rate before delivery.
Peoria County residents can drop off one free household load a week, but building materials and construction debris don't qualify. For a remodel or roof job, you'd pay for every trip on top of fuel and time. A single dumpster is usually the better deal for those projects.
Yes. An average couch takes up roughly one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll have plenty of space left for a recliner, a mattress, and a stack of boxes. Furniture is bulky but fairly light, so you'll likely fill the space before you reach the weight limit.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. Illinois also bans appliances, electronics, batteries, tires, motor oil, oil-based paint, and yard waste from landfills. Those items need a separate recycling or drop-off option. Ask us if you're not sure about something.
The 10-yard dumpster starts lowest, at $399 to $499. It works well for small jobs, but heavy materials like brick or tile can push it past its weight limit. If your project is mostly masonry, ask your account manager whether a separate heavy load makes more sense.
Renting for three days usually costs about the same as renting for five, since we price by the job and not by the day. The weight of your debris has the bigger effect on your total. Ask your account manager about the included tonnage before your container is dropped off.
Most debris from a Peoria home or job site can go in. That includes lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. Clean concrete and brick are fine too, but they're heavy, so a separate load often costs less. Your account manager can check anything you're unsure about.
