At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Suffolk, Virginia, and the wider Hampton Roads area in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Suffolk covers more ground than any other city in the state, so the work runs from downtown rehabs and farmhouse restorations to whole new neighborhoods going up on the northern end. Construction, roofing and cleanout jobs all need a container, and a roll-off handles each of them.
Four things drive your price: the container size, the weight of the debris, the length of the rental, and what the receiving facility charges. The sections below cover our ranges, how the City handles a container in the street, and the rules at the landfill that takes your load.

Several things feed into a Suffolk quote, and none of them is hidden.
Start with the container. Bigger costs more, but undersizing is the trap, because a second haul or an overweight ticket wipes out the saving.
Then the material. Everything gets weighed at the landfill, so a container packed with shingles or block lands in a different place on the bill than one full of cabinets and carpet. Tell us what's coming out and we'll size the allowance for it.
Whose waste it is matters here too. The regional authority gives residents free household drop-offs a set number of times a year, but it rules out anything arriving in a commercial vehicle, anything in a truck over a ton, and waste from a rental property, which carries a minimum fee of $20.00 instead. Landlords and contractors pay the commercial rate from the first pound, which is exactly when a container starts to pay for itself.
Last comes the spot. A container on your own land is simple. One that takes a lane or a sidewalk needs City clearance first, and in the older streets downtown that's a real consideration. Flag it when you call and your account manager will build it into the timeline.

Think about both how much debris you'll make and how dense it is. Prime Dumpster stocks 10 through 40 yard sizes, and Suffolk's mix of small city lots and wide rural parcels means all of them get used here.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the compact one. A single bathroom, a shed teardown or a modest cleanout fits neatly, and it's also the size for block, concrete and soil, which tip the scale long before they fill the space.
The 15-Yard Dumpster steps up for a kitchen strip-out, a carpet and underlay removal, or a small tear-off. The extra volume costs far less than jumping two sizes.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is Suffolk's workhorse. It swallows a full house cleanout or a multi-room renovation and still parks on a normal driveway.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is the one for an addition, a new build or a structure coming down, where the debris is high in volume and mixed in type.
The 40-Yard Dumpster tops the range. Commercial construction, industrial cleanouts and large demolition contracts are its natural home.
Undecided? Give your account manager the details and they'll name the size that fits.
Keep the container on private property, such as your driveway or a fenced site, and no City permit is needed in Suffolk. Most deliveries here go exactly that way.
Once any part of the container sits in the public right-of-way, the City wants to know. Suffolk handles that through its Permits Division in Public Works, which publishes a street, lane and sidewalk closure permit alongside its utility work and driveway forms. Applications go through the City's online permit system, and a signed, scanned copy of the form has to accompany every submission.
Registering for that portal takes a few minutes, so start it before you set a delivery date rather than on the morning of. A surety bond form sits in the same list, which tells you the City takes right-of-way work seriously.
Reach the City of Suffolk Permits Division at 757-514-7606 with questions about your address. Public Works itself is on the second floor at 442 West Washington Street. Your account manager can also chase the right contact and confirm what the placement needs before the truck is scheduled.
Almost everything from a remodel or a cleanout is fine. The exclusions come from Virginia law and from the regional authority's own rules.
Tires are the strict one in Virginia. State law makes it an offense to store or dump more than 100 waste tires anywhere without a permit, and a knowing violation is a criminal charge. Tires go to the landfill's own tire processing operation instead of into your container.
Household hazardous material and electronics have a separate door as well. The regional landfill runs a dedicated collection point for both, plus used motor oil, cooking oil and antifreeze, so paint, solvents, fuel, chemicals and old screens all belong there rather than in a mixed load.
Yard debris has its own shape rules. Loose grass and leaves have to be bagged, and limbs must be under six feet long and no more than six inches thick. Keep that in mind if a tree job is part of the work.
Anything you can't place? Put it to your account manager before it goes in the container.

Suffolk is where the region's waste ends up. The SPSA Regional Landfill sits inside the city at 1 Bob Foeller Drive, Suffolk, VA 23434, and takes roughly 1,300 tons a day across an 833 acre site. You can reach it on 757-961-3683.
It is run by the Southeastern Public Service Authority, a regional body owned by eight local governments, with Suffolk among them. Alongside the landfill the authority operates nine transfer stations across south Hampton Roads and takes loads from city crews, residents and private haulers alike. A transfer station shares the Bob Foeller Drive site.
Opening hours run 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, with the same hours for the hazardous waste and electronics counter and the recycling drop-off. The tire processing facility runs on weekdays only. Card payment is the only option at any of the authority's sites, so no cash changes hands at the gate.
Your account manager will confirm which facility takes your container and go through the disposal fees with you before delivery.
1 Bob Foeller Drive, Suffolk, VA 23434
Regional authority landfill in Suffolk, open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to noon.
Suffolk deliveries can usually be arranged within one to two business days, with the truck arriving inside a 24 to 48 hour window. Give yourself a little longer if the container is going anywhere near the public right-of-way, since the permit portal needs registering first.
Small things make the drop go well:
Saturday is the pinch point. The landfill closes at noon and stays shut on Sunday, so a container topped off late Saturday morning is generally hauled the following week.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster serves every part of Suffolk, from downtown and the Nansemond River waterfront to the fast-growing north end, and out through the Chuckatuck, Cypress, Holy Neck, Sleepy Hole and Whaleyville boroughs to the farms and villages at the western edge of the city. Whichever corner you're working in, we build delivery, pickup and disposal around your dates.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll pick the container, sort out whether the placement needs City clearance, and quote you a clear price on the call.
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.
Suffolk dumpster rentals start at $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and reach $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, on a five-day rental. Debris type and the landfill's charges then shape the final number. Tonnage allowance and the per-ton overage get confirmed by your account manager at booking.
For a project, yes. Free resident drop-offs at the regional landfill are capped, ruled out for rental property waste, and closed to commercial vehicles, so a remodel quickly moves onto paid rates. One container replaces a dozen trips and the fuel and hours that go with them.
Comfortably. A three-seater uses roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a mattress, a chest of drawers and several boxes. Household furniture fills volume rather than weight, so you'll run out of room long before you hit the limit.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel and asbestos all stay out of a Suffolk container. Virginia also regulates waste tires tightly and makes improper dumping a criminal offense, so tires go to the landfill's tire operation. Electronics and household chemicals have their own counter there too.
Our 10-yard is the lowest at $399 to $499. The contents decide the rest. Block, tile and concrete can exceed the weight allowance with the container only half filled, so a load kept to heavy material on its own usually works out cheaper overall.
Three days and five days come to the same figure, since we price by the job rather than the day. Weight is the variable that really moves your bill. Get the included tonnage and the overage rate from your account manager before the container is delivered.
Framing, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, carpet and ordinary cleanout junk are all acceptable in Suffolk. Clean block and concrete go in too, and they are often cheaper when kept as a single material load. Run anything unusual past your account manager first.
