At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Rolling Meadows, Illinois, and the northwest Cook County suburbs around it in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Mid-century ranch and split-level homes getting new kitchens and basements, office parks along Golf Road, and a steady stream of construction near Route 53 keep containers in demand for homeowners and contractors.
Your price depends on the size of the container, what you're getting rid of, how long you keep it, and the disposal fees where the load is dropped. Below you'll find our price ranges, the City's right-of-way rules, what Illinois keeps out of landfills, and where your debris ends up.

Several things decide what a dumpster costs in Rolling Meadows.
The container size sets your base price. Choosing one that holds the whole project saves you from paying for a second haul partway through.
The weight of your debris matters just as much. Plaster, tile, shingles, and concrete from a patio or basement floor are heavy. Every extra ton costs more to dispose of, so dense loads belong in a smaller container.
Disposal fees are part of the math. The regional transfer station that serves Rolling Meadows charges $100.00 per ton for commercial and residential waste, with separate per-item fees for appliances and mattresses.
Placement can also change the cost. A container on your driveway needs no City paperwork, but one in the parkway or street needs a right-of-way permit, and the City may ask for a surety bond.

Think about both the amount of debris and its weight. Prime Dumpster offers five sizes, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is right for a bathroom remodel, a small basement cleanout, or broken concrete from a stoop. Heavy debris reaches the weight limit before it fills the space.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage cleanout, carpet and pad from several rooms, or a small roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size many Rolling Meadows homeowners choose for a kitchen remodel or a whole-house cleanout before a sale.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits large renovations, second-story additions, and new home builds with lots of mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It's made for office buildouts, commercial projects, and demolition.
Driveways in older subdivisions can be short. Your account manager can help you choose a size that fits both the job and the space.
If your dumpster sits on private property, like your driveway, you usually won't need a permit from the City. Keep in mind that in Rolling Meadows the driveway apron between the curb and your property line is part of the public right-of-way, along with the parkway and sidewalk.
The City requires a right-of-way permit for work in any City-owned right-of-way. The Right of Way Permit Applications page has the application, and you can email it with your project documents to ROWpermits@cityrm.org or mail it to the Public Works Department at 3900 Berdnick Street. The City asks for a contractor's insurance certificate and a traffic plan, and permits are good for 180 days.
Some roads in town are not under City control, including Algonquin, Golf, Euclid, Plum Grove, Meacham, and Hicks Roads. A spot on one of those may need a county or state permit instead.
For questions, call Public Works at 847-963-0500, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Your account manager can help you work out which agency controls your street.
Most household junk and remodeling debris can go in the container. The limits come from Illinois landfill bans and from the rules at the transfer station.
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency bans several items from landfills. Landscape waste like grass, leaves, and brush can't be landfilled, and neither can car batteries. Large appliances are banned unless their Freon, mercury switches, and other parts have been removed. Computers, monitors, TVs, and printers must be recycled instead of thrown away.
The Glenview Transfer Station also refuses hazardous waste, household chemicals, liquids, and paint.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos never belong in a standard dumpster. Appliances and mattresses are charged per item, so mention them when you book.
If you're not sure 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.
Rolling Meadows belongs to the Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County, a group of member towns that runs its own transfer station. The Glenview Transfer Station is at 3 Providence Way, Des Plaines, IL 60016, on Des Plaines River Road just north of Central Road. It takes solid waste and construction debris from contractors, businesses, and residents, and every load is weighed.
Contractors and residents can use the station Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. and from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., and on Saturday from 6 a.m. to noon. It's closed to them from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekdays. Trucks 24 feet or longer may be turned away if space is tight, so the station asks drivers to call 847-390-6820 first.
At home, the City's own crews collect household refuse. Private haulers of regular trash need a City license, though construction and demolition debris is left out of that rule. The City has also said it plans to seek a single hauler for business trash, so your account manager will confirm the current rules and where your load is going before delivery.
3 Providence Way, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Run by the Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County. Contractor hours weekdays 6 to 10 a.m. and 2 to 3:30 p.m., Saturday 6 a.m. to noon.
We can usually get a container to you within one to two business days, arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If the container needs a right-of-way permit, plan extra time for City review.
Some tips for a smooth delivery:
The transfer station closes at noon on Saturday and isn't open Sunday, so a dumpster filled over the weekend is usually hauled on 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 Rolling Meadows costs $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. The transfer station charges by the ton, so weight affects the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rates.
A single small load can be cheaper to take to the transfer station yourself. You'll pay a minimum fee, unload by hand, and work around limited weekday hours, though. For a project with several loads, a dumpster usually costs less once you count your time and gas.
Yes. A standard three-seat couch uses about 20 percent of a 10-yard dumpster. There's still space for chairs, a table, and bags of junk. Furniture is bulky but light, so you'll fill the space well before you reach the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. Illinois also bans car batteries, yard waste, and electronics like TVs and computers from landfills. Appliances need their Freon and parts removed first, so tell your account manager about them before you book.
The 10-yard dumpster costs the least, at $399 to $499. What you load still decides the final bill. A small container full of concrete or plaster can go over its weight allowance, and each extra ton adds to the price.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as our standard five-day rental. We price by the project, and the weight of your debris affects the bill more than the number of days. Ask your account manager about the included weight and the cost of extra days.
Furniture, carpet, drywall, lumber, cabinets, roofing, and general household junk are all fine to load. Clean concrete and brick can go in too, as long as they stay within the weight limit. Your account manager can confirm any item you have questions about.
