At Prime Dumpster, we arrange roll-off dumpster delivery across Brighton, Colorado, and the farm-edge subdivisions north and east of it, in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Brighton sits in two counties at once, Adams and Weld, and a fair share of the work here is new construction on the growth edge, basement finishing in the older blocks off Bromley Lane, and barn and outbuilding teardowns on acreage parcels.
What you pay turns on the size you take, how heavy the load runs, how long you keep the container, and what the disposal site charges to take it. Below are our ranges, the rule that governs a container on a Brighton street, what the state keeps out of a landfill, and how quickly we can get one dropped.

Four things move a Brighton number up or down.
Size sets the floor, and getting it wrong costs more than stepping up one size would have. Give your account manager the room count, the roof squares or the slab footage and the sizing stops being a guess.
Weight does most of the rest. A Brighton basement full of old concrete, stucco and dirt reaches its weight allowance with the walls of the container only half full, so on dense material we often steer you to a smaller size and a second haul.
Hold time matters less than people expect, because the delivery, the pickup and the disposal are what you are really buying. A long hold still has to clear the day limits the City sets for anything standing on public ground.
The disposal charge is the fourth piece, and in Adams and Weld counties it moves with what you load. Clean concrete, clean wood and clean metal in their own containers behave differently at the gate than one mixed pile.

Start with volume, then sanity-check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes across Brighton.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the one Brighton crews take for dense material. Broken driveway, footing concrete, brick, roof tile, plaster and soil all belong in it, and on the tighter older lots near downtown Brighton it is often the only one that fits beside the house.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a cleared garage, one gutted bathroom, or carpet and tile stripped out of a two-bedroom place. It gives you reach without eating the whole driveway.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common pick for a remodel crossing several rooms, or a full outbuilding strip-out. Framing, cabinets, drywall and fixtures all go in together.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles a whole-house renovation, an addition, or a new build on one of the Brighton growth-edge lots where debris arrives over several weeks.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the biggest size delivered in Brighton, built for demolition and high-volume construction, and it wants the longest clear run and the most overhead room.
Tell your account manager what the job is and they will name the size rather than leave the choice to you.
On your own driveway or inside a fenced private job site in Brighton, no City permit applies. Keep the container off the sidewalk, off the parkway strip and out of the alley and nothing further is needed.
Public ground is a different matter, and Brighton's rule is unusually direct about it. The City treats anything placed on a street, sidewalk, easement, park or other public place as an encroachment or obstruction needing a written permit first, and its definition of a public furnishing names a trash container outright, alongside benches, planters and bicycle racks. So a container at the curb is squarely inside the permit, not in a gray area beside it.
Two clocks apply once you are on public ground. Temporary use of public property is capped at thirty days by definition. A permit tied to construction or demolition work runs one hundred and eighty consecutive days unless the permit says otherwise, and it can be renewed if you can show the need. Applications go to the Director of Planning and Community Development on a City form, insurance is required, and the City asks for a financial guarantee for work in the public right-of-way.
One consequence is worth knowing before you plan a curb drop. An obstruction left on public ground against the terms of that article is a public nuisance the City may remove, and property the City removes is deemed abandoned. That is a real equipment risk, not a paperwork footnote.
The permit counter sits with Community Development at 500 South 4th Avenue and the line is 303-655-2017. Applications run through the City's online portal. Your account manager can tell you whether your drop spot is inside the right-of-way and who to ask for.
Framing, drywall, stucco, flooring, roofing, cabinets, fixtures, furniture and ordinary cleanout debris are all normal loads in a Brighton container. The exclusions come from the state, and they are short and specific.
Colorado names five categories kept out of any solid waste site or facility: lead-acid batteries, liquid wastes or wastes holding free liquids unless that site is specifically approved for them, used oil, waste tires, and waste electronic devices and computers. Read the heading as well as the list, because the state publishes it as a residential list. A contractor hauling the same material still has to find it a lawful destination, and the practical answer is the same one: those items travel separately.
Brighton adds a second filter at its own drop-offs, and it is worth reading in the negative. The City's twice-yearly large-item program takes furniture, cabinets, mattresses, doors and nail-free lumber from residents only, and turns away household trash, commercial waste and project debris, with the City noting those need special handling at the landfill. The tree limb site is tighter still: limbs only, proof of residency, and no contractors at all. Paint, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides and automotive fluids go to a chemical collection route instead, and Weld County runs a year-round program for small-quantity business generators that Adams County handles through collection events.
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.
A loaded Brighton container heads for a permitted Colorado solid waste site, and on this side of the metro the active sites taking construction and demolition debris are privately held, so we name a destination for your job rather than pointing you at a public gate that will not serve it.
That matters because neither City drop-off can take a container load. The large-item program is residents only, by the City's own words no commercial or industrial facilities are allowed, and the tree limb site excludes contractors in the same breath. A Brighton homeowner clearing a basement and a Brighton builder clearing a lot are on different routes.
Sorting is where the money sits. Clean concrete, clean untreated wood and clean metal each have their own outlet in the Denver basin, and a dedicated container for one of them usually prices better than the same material buried in a mixed load. Your account manager confirms the destination for your load before the truck rolls and flags anything that needs to travel on its own.
Most Brighton orders are scheduled inside one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Allow longer when the container has to stand on public ground, because the encroachment permit is a written approval somebody has to issue first.
Five habits that keep a Brighton drop on time:
Brighton work that sits across the Adams and Weld line sometimes changes which county's disposal and chemical routes apply, so give your account manager the address, not just the cross street.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster covers all of Brighton, from the older grid around South 4th Avenue out to the newer subdivisions along Bromley Lane and the acreage parcels toward the South Platte, and we run the same routes through the northern metro towns next door. Give us the Brighton address and the scope and we will build delivery, pickup and disposal around your own schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will pick the container, sort out the public-ground question, and give you a firm number while you are on the phone.
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.
Brighton rentals run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container on a five-day period. What you load and what the disposal site charges move the final figure. Your account manager pins down the included tonnage and the overage rate for Brighton before you commit.
Once the job passes two or three pickup loads, a Brighton container wins outright. Self-hauling costs you a charge at every visit, the fuel, and most of a working day, and the nearest sites that take project debris are a drive out of Brighton. One container clears the job in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves room for a bed frame, a dresser and a stack of household cartons. Bulky furniture runs out of space long before it runs out of weight allowance.
No lead-acid batteries, used oil, loose liquids, tires or electronics, which Colorado keeps out of solid waste sites. Add paint, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals and propane cylinders. Those travel on a chemical collection route, and Brighton points residents to Adams and Weld County programs.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. Whether it is genuinely the cheapest answer depends on the material. Heavy Brighton demolition debris can reach the weight allowance in a half-full 10-yard container, so two sorted containers sometimes beat one mixed one.
In Brighton a three-day rental is normally priced like a five-day one, because the cost lives in the delivery, the haul and the disposal. Weight is the variable that moves it. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs.
Wood, drywall, stucco, plaster, flooring, roofing, cabinets, doors, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout material are all fine in Brighton. Clean concrete, brick and asphalt are accepted too and often cost less in their own container. Anything unusual goes past your Brighton account manager before it goes in.
