At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Rolla, Missouri, and the surrounding Phelps County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Rental houses near the Missouri S&T campus turning over each semester, older homes getting remodeled, and ongoing construction along the I-44 corridor all keep containers moving around town.
Your price comes from the container size, the kind of debris, the length of your rental, and the disposal fees at the county transfer station. Below you'll find our price ranges, the City's rule for containers on streets, Missouri's landfill bans, and where your debris is taken.

Several things shape what a Rolla dumpster costs.
Size is the obvious one. A larger container costs more, but one that's too small can lead to overage fees or an extra haul.
Weight matters even more here. Debris from Rolla is weighed at the Phelps County Transfer Station, which the regional solid waste district lists at $49 per ton. Plaster, shingles, tile, and soil get heavy fast, while furniture and boxes don't.
What you load also changes the route. Missouri bans a few everyday items from landfills, so appliances, tires, and yard waste have to be handled apart from the rest of your debris.
Compare that with the City's own special pickup. Rolla's fee page lists $35.00 for about a pickup truck load of trash or furniture and $20.00 for each appliance. That works for a few items, but a basement or a remodel is a dumpster job.

Pick a size based on both volume and weight. Prime Dumpster rents containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is a good match for a bathroom remodel, one room of clutter, or a small concrete or brick job. Heavy material hits the weight limit before the container is full, so smaller is often smarter.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage cleanout, a flooring job, or a small roof tear-off.
The 20-Yard Dumpster suits a full house cleanout or a rental between tenants that needs old carpet and furniture gone.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits bigger renovations, additions, and new home construction.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest size. It's intended for commercial jobs, big demolition projects, and large property cleanouts.
Your account manager can help you choose once they hear what the project involves.
A dumpster on private property, like your driveway or parking pad, doesn't need a City permit in Rolla. The City doesn't publish a separate dumpster permit at all.
The street is a different matter. Rolla's code lets temporary storage units sit on a property for up to 60 days, or longer during a renovation or new build. They're expected to sit on a driveway, parking area, or other hard surface. They can't go on a street or other public area without approval from the Director of Public Works.
The City doesn't publish a fee or a review time for that approval. If the container has to go in the street or an alley, call the Public Works Department at 573-364-8659, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. The office is on the fourth floor of City Hall at 901 North Elm Street.
If your job also needs a building permit, Community Development can help at 573-364-5333. Your account manager can help you figure out which City office to call.
Most household and building debris is fine to load. Missouri's landfill bans and the transfer station's own rules set the limits.
The Missouri Department of Natural Resources keeps major appliances, whole tires, used oil, and lead-acid batteries out of landfills. That covers refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, stoves, dishwashers, and water heaters. State law also bans yard waste from landfills. Microwaves are allowed.
Each banned item has another way out. Tire shops have to take your old tires when you buy new ones, and battery sellers must accept an old car battery when you buy a new one. Electronics go to the Rolla Recycling Center.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of any dumpster. The transfer station can also turn away loads with large chunks of concrete, so mention concrete when you book.
When you're unsure 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.
Most dumpster loads from Rolla go to the Phelps County Transfer Station at 12441 County Road 2170, Rolla, MO 65401. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources lists it as the operating waste processing site for Phelps County. It's open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. The phone number is 573-364-8771.
The station charges by weight, with set prices for small loads under 1,000 pounds. Loads are weighed, so the heavier your debris, the higher the disposal cost.
Recycling is handled across town at the Rolla Recycling Center, 2141 Old St. James Road, Rolla, MO 65402. The City runs it, and its phone number is 573-364-6693. Sorted recyclables can be dropped off any time, and electronics are taken Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and walk you through the disposal fees before delivery.

Most Rolla dumpster rentals can be booked within one to two business days, and delivery lands in a 24 to 48 hour window. Calling a few days early leaves time to clear any street placement with Public Works.
Here's how to make delivery go smoothly:
The transfer station closes at 11 a.m. on Saturdays and stays closed on Sundays. A container filled over the weekend is usually hauled early the next week.

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 rental in Rolla costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, for a five-day rental. Your debris weight and the per-ton fee at the Phelps County Transfer Station affect the total. Your account manager confirms the tonnage and overage rate.
For a big job, the dumpster usually costs less. Every trip to the transfer station carries its own charge, and a real cleanout can take six or more pickup loads. Add gas and several hours of driving and unloading, and one dumpster haul comes out ahead.
Sure. A standard three-seat couch fills about one-fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so you still have space for a mattress, a desk, and a pile of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so the container fills up long before the weight becomes a concern.
Missouri bans major appliances, whole tires, used oil, lead-acid batteries, and yard waste from landfills, so leave them out. Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos are off limits too. Large pieces of concrete can also get a load turned away, so ask first.
The 10-yard dumpster is the least expensive, at $399 to $499. Since the transfer station charges by the ton, a small container full of tile or dirt can still run over its weight allowance. Keeping heavy debris in its own load helps you control the bill.
A three-day rental is usually priced the same as a five-day rental. We price by the job, and the weight of your debris affects the cost more than the number of days. Ask your account manager about the included tonnage and the overage rate before delivery.
You can put most household and construction debris in a dumpster, including lumber, drywall, carpet, cabinets, roofing, fixtures, and furniture. Microwaves are allowed in Missouri, unlike larger appliances. If an item isn't on the banned list and isn't hazardous, it's usually fine, and your account manager can confirm.
