At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Bell, California, and the surrounding southeast Los Angeles County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Older housing stock along Atlantic Avenue, steady kitchen and bath upgrades, and infill construction near the Los Angeles River keep containers moving for homeowners and contractors here.
What you pay turns on container size, how heavy your debris is, how long you keep the container, and what the receiving transfer station charges. Below you will find price ranges, the City of Bell permit route for a container in the street, what the City allows in its waste system, and where your load actually ends up.

Four things move the number on a Bell quote, and only one of them is the container itself.
Size leads. A container that is one step too small means a second haul, and a second haul costs more than the larger size would have. Describe the room count or the square footage and your account manager will size it from that.
Weight follows close behind. Stucco, roof tile, slab concrete and plaster from a 1940s remodel all run heavy, so a 10-yard container often reaches its allowance while there is still room to spare. Light mixed debris from a cleanout behaves the opposite way.
Where the load is taken matters too. Bell sits a short drive from the Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County transfer station in South Gate, which keeps haul time short. That same site adds a $5.40 per ton or $5.40 per load surcharge on uncovered loads capable of producing litter, so a tarped container costs less to empty.
City rules are the fourth piece. Bell runs its bin service through an exclusive franchise and treats construction and demolition material as part of its own waste system, so the account manager confirms how the City applies that rule to your address before anything is booked.

Pick by volume first, then sanity-check it against weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes in Bell.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the dense-material container. Broken driveway concrete, brick, roof tile and plaster belong here, and so do tight single-room jobs where there is nowhere to park anything bigger.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a garage emptied out, one bathroom stripped to the studs, or a small tear-off on a bungalow roof. It is the step most Bell homeowners land on.
The 20-Yard Dumpster takes a multi-room remodel or a full house cleanout. On a narrow Bell lot it is usually the largest container a driveway will hold without blocking the sidewalk.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is built for a gut renovation, an addition, or a commercial tenant improvement that throws off a mix of framing, drywall and fixtures.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest we carry. Demolition, industrial clearing and high-volume construction need this one, and it needs real room to set down and to tip.
Unsure between two sizes? Give your account manager the project and they will tell you which one to take.
On private property, a driveway or a fenced job site, Bell does not require a container permit. Keep it clear of the sidewalk and off the parkway strip and you are fine.
The moment any part of the container touches a public street, alley, parkway or sidewalk, the answer changes. Bell's street rules bar leaving any obstruction in a public place and bar depositing materials in the street without the director's permission. The route out is a permit from the Director of Community Services, which covers placing an encroachment and placing any impediment to travel on a public way. The City's own definition of encroachment is wide enough to catch a container.
Two things are worth knowing before you plan around it. The City publishes no fee and no review time for this permit, and the permit itself is not transferable to another party. If a container is left obstructing a street, the City can declare it a nuisance and remove it after notice.
Public Works permits are listed on the City's Public Works Permits page, and the City line is 323-588-6211. Your account manager can help you work out whether your drop spot counts as public right-of-way before you apply.
Most framing, drywall, stucco, flooring, roofing and household debris loads without trouble. The limits come from California's hazardous waste rules and from what the receiving station will take.
CalRecycle is blunt about it: putting hazardous waste in the garbage is illegal in California. That reaches paint of either kind, solvents and thinners, aerosol cans that are not empty, pesticides, pool chemicals, antifreeze, motor oil and filters, propane tanks and other compressed gas cylinders, fluorescent tubes and every kind of battery. Tires are barred from the trash too, to keep mosquitoes and tire fires out of landfills.
Two building materials catch people out on older Bell houses. Asbestos shows up in mid-century cement board, flooring and siding, and it has to be handled separately. Treated wood carrying chemical preservatives must be managed as hazardous waste rather than tossed. Electronics are their own rule: televisions, monitors, computers, printers and microwaves stay out.
The receiving transfer station takes only non-hazardous municipal solid and inert waste, and refuses hazardous and liquid waste at the gate. Ask your account manager about anything questionable before it goes over the rail.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Most Bell loads are tipped at the South Gate Transfer Station, 9530 Garfield Avenue, South Gate, CA 90280, run by the Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County. It sits east of the Long Beach Freeway at the Firestone Boulevard exit, which is a few minutes from almost any Bell address.
The site is open Monday through Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and closed Sundays and major holidays. Its cut-offs are strict and the agency says there are no exemptions: trucks that tip automatically are turned away after 4:45 p.m. and all unloading must finish by 4:50 p.m. That is why a late-afternoon pickup request sometimes becomes a next-morning pickup.
One more local point for anyone pulling a building or demolition permit in Bell. The City requires a waste management plan on any project larger than 100 square feet, and on smaller ones past a modest cost threshold, with at least half the construction and demolition debris diverted by reuse or recycling. Compliance is written in as a condition of the permit. Your account manager can confirm the destination and the paperwork trail before delivery.
9530 Garfield Avenue, South Gate, CA 90280
Open Monday through Saturday, 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., closed Sundays and major holidays.
Most Bell orders are scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Giving us a couple of extra days helps when a street permit or the City's franchise question has to be settled first.
Five things that make a Bell delivery go smoothly:
Keep the transfer station calendar in mind as well. It is closed on Sundays, so a container filled on a Saturday evening will not be emptied until 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 Bell rental runs from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container on a five-day period. Debris weight and the transfer station's charges move the final number. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate before delivery.
A container usually wins once a job passes two pickup loads. Self-hauling means paying at the scale each visit, plus fuel, plus your own hours, and a transfer station cut-off that closes mid-afternoon. One container handles the whole job without the round trips.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which still leaves space for a mattress, a dresser and a stack of boxes. With furniture you nearly always run out of room before you run out of weight allowance.
Keep out paint, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, antifreeze, motor oil, propane tanks, batteries and fluorescent tubes. Asbestos and chemically treated wood must be handled separately in California. Televisions, monitors and computers stay out too, and tires are barred from the trash statewide.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. It is only the cheapest option if your debris is light, though. Load it with Bell driveway concrete or roof tile and you can hit the weight allowance early, so splitting the heavy material into its own container often costs less overall.
Three days normally costs the same as five, because the price covers the haul and the disposal rather than the calendar. Weight is what changes the bill. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before you start loading.
Framing, drywall, stucco, plaster, flooring, roofing, cabinets, fixtures, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout debris are all fine in Bell. Clean concrete, brick and asphalt are accepted and are often cheaper kept in their own load. Check anything unusual with your account manager first.
