At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Amarillo, Texas, and the surrounding Potter and Randall County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New home construction on the southwest side, steady remodeling in older neighborhoods like Wolflin and Belmar, and commercial work along the Soncy Road corridor keep roll-off containers moving for homeowners and contractors across the city.
Your price comes down to four things: the container size you pick, the weight and type of your debris, how many days you keep the container, and the disposal fees at the city landfill. Below you will find our price ranges, the rule for setting a container on an Amarillo street, and what the landfill will not take.

Four things move the number on your quote in Amarillo, and the first one is the easiest to get right.
Start with the size. A larger container costs more at the front end, yet the right size saves you the overage charge or the second trip that comes from guessing low.
Then look at the load itself. Panhandle jobs often mean caliche, dirt, and old shingles, and all three are heavy. Dense debris fills your weight allowance long before it fills the container, so tell us what you have and we will match the size to the weight.
Disposal is the third piece. Loads from Amarillo go to the city landfill on Bezner Drive, and the City of Amarillo charges by the weight of the material delivered. Construction and demolition debris carries a landfill fee even for city residents, so a remodel load costs more to bury than a pickup bed of household trash.
City rules are the last piece. A container that sits in a street, an alley, or a sidewalk needs a right-of-way permit from the city, and the posted fee is $260.00 plus a $10.00 technology fee. A container on your own driveway avoids that cost entirely, which is why we look at your drop spot first.

Pick your size by volume first and weight second, since a load of brick and a load of cabinets take up very different room. We carry five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest container we can arrange. Use it for one bathroom, a small cleanout, or a load of concrete, brick, or caliche, where the weight runs out long before the space does.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a garage cleanout, a flooring tear-out, or a small roof job. It buys you real room over the 10-yard without the jump in price of a 20.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Amarillo homeowners end up with. It handles a full-house cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms and still fits on a standard driveway.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is built for a big renovation, a new build, or a tear-down that makes a lot of mixed debris. Contractors working the newer subdivisions out past Loop 335 tend to order this one.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It is meant for commercial construction, large demolition, and industrial cleanouts that pile up volume fast.
Still weighing two sizes? Walk the job through with your account manager and they will pick the one that fits.
On private property, your driveway included, Amarillo does not ask you for a permit to set a container. The rule changes the moment any part of it rests in the public right-of-way.
The city counts roadways, streets, sidewalks, alleys, and easements as right-of-way, and its Right of Way Division handles those permits. That division sits inside Capital Projects and Development Engineering, and applications are filed through the city's online builder system rather than at a counter.
There is a second piece worth knowing. A permitted hauler cannot leave a mechanically handled container on public property or in the right-of-way unless the city's solid waste superintendent signs off or the hauler has an agreement with the city. In practice that means two approvals can apply to one alley placement, so the question is worth asking early.
The Engineering office is in the Simms Municipal Building at 808 South Buchanan Street and answers at 806-378-9334, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you are not sure whether your spot counts as right-of-way, your account manager will help you reach the right desk before delivery.
Ordinary household and construction debris is welcome. The limits come from the state and from what the city landfill will take at the gate.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality keeps a short list of items out of every landfill in the state. Lead-acid batteries are out. Do-it-yourself motor oil and used oil filters are out. Whole or scrap tires are out, as are refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, and anything else holding refrigerant. Liquid waste is out too.
Hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos cannot ride in a standard container either. Keep them separate and handle them through a proper drop-off.
Amarillo adds two practical limits of its own. The landfill takes tires only for a fee, and only as capacity allows. An appliance that held refrigerant has to be drained first, with the removal certificate handed over at the gate, so a stray refrigerator can hold up an entire load.
Got an item you cannot place in one group or the other? Ask your account manager before it goes over the rail.
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.
Nearly every container we pull in town is emptied at the Amarillo Landfill, the city-owned site at 16250 Bezner Drive, Amarillo, TX 79124. It takes loads Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is closed on Sunday. The last load goes across the scale at 4:30 p.m. so crews can finish unloading before the gate closes.
Because the City of Amarillo owns the landfill, the city sets what you pay there, not your hauler. Charges run on the weight of the material delivered. Household waste from city residents goes in free, while construction and demolition material carries a fee for everyone, residents included.
Weather can shut the site on short notice, and the city asks haulers and residents to check before they roll out. Your account manager tracks the gate status for your pickup day and will confirm where your load is headed before the truck leaves.
16250 Bezner Dr, Amarillo, TX 79124
City-owned landfill, open Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., last load at 4:30 p.m.
Most Amarillo orders go out within one to two business days, and the truck arrives inside a 24 to 48 hour window. A few extra days of lead time help you sort a permit, clear the spot, and often land a better price.
Here is how to keep delivery day simple:
One more piece of timing to plan around: the landfill is closed on Sunday and stops taking loads at 4:30 in the afternoon. A container topped off late on a Saturday usually travels on Monday.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves every part of Amarillo, from Wolflin, Belmar, and Puckett on the southwest side to the Bivins and San Jacinto neighborhoods, Hillside Terrace, the downtown core, and the newer streets out past Loop 335, plus nearby Potter and Randall County communities like Canyon, Bushland, and Timbercreek Canyon. Give us the address and we will confirm delivery for it.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will match the container to your debris, confirm the landfill rules that apply, and quote you a firm 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.
In Amarillo, a 10-yard container runs $399 to $499 and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899 on a standard five-day rental. Debris type moves the number too, since the city landfill bills by weight and charges a fee for construction material. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
For anything past a load or two, renting wins. Hauling it yourself means repeat drives out to Bezner Drive, a scale charge on each construction load, fuel, and a day of your own labor. One container holds the whole job, and we handle the trip and the disposal fee in a single price.
It will. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves room for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of boxes. Furniture is bulky rather than heavy, so with a load like that you run out of space well before you reach the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel. Texas rules also bar lead-acid batteries, do-it-yourself motor oil, oil filters, whole tires, and any appliance still holding refrigerant. Asbestos needs a licensed abatement crew. Tires and appliances can go to the landfill separately, so mention them when you book.
The 10-yard container has the lowest starting price at $399 to $499. Your real cost still depends on the load, because caliche, dirt, and tile can run a small container past its weight allowance in a hurry. Splitting heavy material into its own container is often the cheaper route.
Three days generally costs the same as five, because we price by the job rather than the day. Weight drives your final bill far more than the calendar does. Ask your account manager what tonnage comes with your size and what each extra ton costs, and you will know your ceiling before delivery.
Most of what a house or a job site produces is fine: lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, cardboard, and general cleanout junk. Clean concrete, brick, and dirt are accepted as well, and they often cost less when kept in their own container. Your account manager can check any item you are unsure about.
