At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals throughout Apple Valley, Minnesota, and the western Dakota County suburbs in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Much of Apple Valley went up between the 1970s and the 1990s, which means a steady run of roof replacements, lower-level finishes, deck rebuilds and kitchen work, alongside commercial construction in the Central Village and along the Cedar Avenue corridor.
What you pay depends on the size, the weight and mix of the load, how many days the container stays, and the charges at the facility that takes it. Apple Valley also has one local rule that catches people out, and it is about how long a container may stay and where it may sit.

| Size | Average Price Range | Approximate Dimensions | Common Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10-Yard Dumpster | $399–$499 | 12' L × 8' W × 3.5' H | Concrete, brick, and heavy debris; small cleanouts; single-room remodels |
| 15-Yard Dumpster | $449–$569 | 16' L × 7.5' W × 4–5' H | Garage cleanouts, kitchen and bathroom remodels, small roof tear-offs |
| 20-Yard Dumpster | $499–$649 | 22' L × 7.5' W × 4.5' H | Whole-home cleanouts, multi-room renovations, flooring removal, roofing |
| 30-Yard Dumpster | $599–$799 | 22' L × 8' W × 6' H | Major renovations, new residential construction, large commercial projects |
| 40-Yard Dumpster | $699–$899 | 22–24' L × 8' W × 8' H | Commercial demolition, industrial cleanouts, large-scale construction |
Size is the first number. Because Apple Valley publishes a two-week limit on how long a temporary container may stay outdoors at a property, the better question here is not just how much fits but whether the job will finish inside that window.
Debris weight drives the rest. A tear-off on a 1980s Apple Valley rambler produces a lot of asphalt shingle, and shingles, plaster, tile and concrete are all dense enough to use up a weight allowance before the container looks full.
Where the load goes adds the haul. Dakota County operates no landfill, so a mixed project load leaves the county and the distance is part of your quote rather than a hidden extra.
Sorting still helps. Clean concrete, clean lumber and scrap metal all have cheaper routes than mixed demolition debris, so on a larger job we will often suggest two containers instead of one.
Days on site matter least. Tell your account manager the realistic finish date, and the quote reflects it from the start.

Work out the volume, then check the weight, then check the calendar. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes in Apple Valley.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is our smallest container and the right answer for heavy material: broken driveway concrete, patio pavers, old tile or soil. It also suits a single bathroom gut.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage or storage room cleanout, a kitchen strip-out or a small roof. Its shorter length is helpful on the narrower driveways in the older parts of town.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the usual pick for a whole-house cleanout or a remodel touching several rooms. Carpet, drywall and cabinets together fit comfortably.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for additions, new residential construction and commercial fit-outs. Contractors working the County Road 42 and Galaxie Avenue retail corridor tend to default to it.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It is meant for demolition and high-volume commercial cleanouts where a smaller container would need two or three hauls.
Tell your account manager the scope and the two-week window, and they will size it so you are not paying for a swap you did not need.
On private property, including your driveway, Apple Valley requires no separate permit for the container itself. That is where almost every rental here belongs, and for a specific local reason.
The City publishes its own rule for temporary containers, and it is short. Temporary disposal containers may be used for up to two weeks, and they may not be placed on the roadway within the public right of way or anywhere that blocks a sidewalk, path or pedestrian access. The City also warns that the public road right of way reaches roughly 13 feet behind the curb, so a spot that looks like your front boulevard is often not yours to use.
If a container genuinely has to occupy public ground, there is a route. Apple Valley publishes an obstruction right-of-way permit alongside its excavation and driveway permits, and the City treats any obstruction of a right of way or public grounds without a permit as a public nuisance. Insurance requirements apply.
The City's codified container section is written around smaller units, so whether a 20-yard roll-off falls under the two-week rule or under the general obstruction permit is a question for the City rather than something to assume. Call the Apple Valley Municipal Center at 952-953-2500 and ask for Public Works Engineering. No fee is published for the obstruction permit, so leave time. Your account manager will help you confirm which counter you need and keep the rental inside whatever window the City sets.
Minnesota publishes no single statewide banned-materials table, so the clearest local list is the one Apple Valley writes into its own code. The City requires separate disposal methods for auto hulks and large auto parts, used appliances, ash, sludges, household hazardous waste, tires, lead-acid batteries, used oil, yard waste, and tree and agricultural waste. None of that belongs in a roll-off.
The City also bars liquids from a temporary container outright. Only refuse in solid form goes in, which means no part-full paint cans, no fuel, no solvent and nothing that can leak.
Standard exclusions follow: hazardous waste, asbestos, medical waste and anything flammable stay out of every delivered container.
Electronics and household chemicals have a good local home instead, described in the next section. Ask your account manager about any item you are unsure of before it goes over the rail, because a rejected load costs more than a phone call.
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.
Dakota County runs no landfill, so a mixed construction load from Apple Valley travels to a privately operated disposal facility outside the county. We quote that haul as part of the job. Because every facility in reach that takes mixed project debris is run by a company that also rents containers, we do not point customers at one by name.
What the county does run is worth using. The Recycling Zone at 3365 Dodd Road, Eagan, MN is Dakota County's own household hazardous waste and recycling site, and the county says most items are free to drop off. It takes household hazardous waste, electronics, small household appliances and recyclables from residents of Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington counties. It is open Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Thursday from noon to 8 p.m., Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and closed on the main holidays. The number is 952-891-7800.
That facility is the reason a basement or garage cleanout in Apple Valley should be split in two. Paint, thinner, fuel, batteries, bulbs and old electronics go to Eagan; the lumber, drywall, carpet and furniture go in the container. Splitting them keeps the container load clean and keeps the whole thing from being refused.
The City's recycling service is administered jointly by Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan and Lakeville, which is why your curbside guidance and the county's drop-off guidance line up. Your account manager confirms where your container load is going and what it will be charged as before delivery.
3365 Dodd Road, Eagan, MN
Dakota County's own site for household hazardous waste, electronics and recyclables, open Wednesday through Saturday.
Most Apple Valley rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. In a city with a two-week limit on how long a container may sit, booking the delivery and the pickup together is the sensible move.
Five things that make it go smoothly:
If a job looks like it will run longer than two weeks, say so when you book. It is much easier to plan a swap or an early pull than to explain a container that has overstayed.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves all of Apple Valley and the surrounding western Dakota County communities, from the Central Village and the Cedar Avenue corridor to the neighborhoods off Pilot Knob Road and the edge of Lebanon Hills. We plan the drop around driveway surfaces, tight cul-de-sacs and the City's two-week container window rather than treating every address the same.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, set the delivery and pickup dates around the City's limit, and give 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.
Apple Valley rentals run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, on a five-day period. Debris weight and the haul out of Dakota County both affect the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate before you commit.
Renting usually wins here. With no county landfill, every self-haul trip is a long round trip plus a charge on arrival, and most remodels need several. One container takes the whole job in one movement.
Yes. A three-seat couch occupies roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, so there is still room for a mattress, a dresser and boxes. Furniture runs out of space long before it runs out of weight allowance.
Apple Valley requires separate handling for appliances, tires, lead-acid batteries, used oil, ash, sludges, yard waste and household hazardous waste, and bars liquids from a temporary container. Hazardous waste, asbestos and fuel are out everywhere. Ask your account manager about anything in between.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. The cheapest total is a different question. Dense material can push a small container past its weight allowance, so putting concrete or shingles in a load of their own frequently costs less than squeezing everything into one.
Three days generally costs what five days costs, since the price is set around the job rather than counted per day. A shorter rental does help you stay well inside the City's two-week limit. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included.
Most construction and household debris is allowed: lumber, drywall, shingles, siding, flooring, carpet, cabinets, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout material. Clean concrete, brick and asphalt are accepted and often cheaper kept separate. Check unusual items with your account manager first.
