At Prime Dumpster, we arrange roll-off dumpster delivery across Brookhaven, Georgia, in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Brookhaven became a city in 2012 and the building stock shows it: mid-century ranches off Ashford Dunwoody being taken back to the studs, teardown and rebuild lots on the Peachtree Road side, and steady commercial construction along the Buford Highway corridor.
Four things drive the number: the size you take, how dense the debris is, how many days you hold the container, and what the disposal site charges. Below are our ranges, how Brookhaven handles a container on public ground, what cannot go in, and where a Brookhaven load actually ends up.

Here is what a Brookhaven quote really turns on.
Debris type leads, because this is renovation country. Brookhaven loads skew toward plaster, old tile, cast iron and brick rather than light construction waste, and dense material reaches its weight allowance well before the container looks full.
Size is next. The cost of going one size too small is a second haul, and the cost of going one size too large is a few dollars of unused volume. Give your account manager the room count, the roof squares or the slab footage and the choice makes itself.
Site access is a genuine Brookhaven variable. Many of these lots are narrow and deep with mature hardwoods over the driveway and parked cars either side of the street, which decides both the size sent and where it can sit.
Disposal is the last piece, and a sorted load prices differently from a mixed one. The county facilities that take Brookhaven debris treat clean concrete, clean wood and metal as separate streams.

Pick on volume, then check the weight, then check whether the truck can reach the spot. Prime Dumpster stocks five sizes in Brookhaven.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the Brookhaven answer for heavy material. Broken concrete, brick, old tile, plaster and soil belong in it, and on a tight Brookhaven lot with trees it is frequently the only one that fits.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a cleared garage, one gutted bathroom, or carpet and tile stripped from a two-bedroom unit, without blocking the whole drive.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common choice for a renovation crossing several rooms. Framing, cabinets, drywall and fixtures all go together.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits a whole-house renovation, an addition, or a teardown producing bulky mixed debris over several weeks.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest container delivered to Brookhaven, built for demolition and high-volume construction, and it needs the most ground and the clearest canopy.
Tell your account manager what the job involves and they will name the size instead of leaving you to guess.
A container on your own driveway or inside a private Brookhaven job site needs no city permit. Keep it clear of the sidewalk and the public road and that is the end of the matter.
Public ground is less tidy, and the honest answer is that Brookhaven publishes no permit built for a container. The city's encroachment permit, which the public works director issues, reaches two kinds of work only: utility installation in the public roads, and the construction, relocation or removal of driveways, sidewalks, curbing, bike lanes, trails, drainage and landscaping. A container standing at the curb is neither of those. So a curb drop has to be cleared with public works before it is scheduled rather than booked against a published form.
Where that encroachment permit does apply, the administrative shape is worth knowing because the timings are real. The director has thirty days from a complete application to grant or deny it, each permit expires six months after issue, a separate permit is needed for every street the work touches, there is a nonrefundable application fee plus cost recovery, and the application may require an indemnity bond. Work done without one carries a fine.
One rule does reach us wherever the container travels. Brookhaven makes it unlawful for anyone, city crews included, to move refuse along a public street unless the load is secured well enough to stop it falling, leaking or blowing out, and it puts personal responsibility on the operator or the owner of the vehicle. Tarping is not optional here.
A second rule reaches the customer. It is unlawful to put acid, explosive material, flammable liquids or any dangerous or corrosive material into a container set out for collection. That one sits on whoever loads it.
Your account manager can confirm whether your drop spot is inside the public road and who at public works to speak to.
Framing, drywall, plaster, flooring, roofing, cabinets, doors, fixtures, furniture and general cleanout debris are all ordinary Brookhaven loads. Georgia keeps no statewide table of banned materials, so the limits here come from the city container rule and from the facility gate instead.
The city rule is the short one and it is absolute: no acids, no explosive material, no flammable liquids, nothing dangerous or corrosive in a container put out for collection. In practice that means paint, solvents, thinners, pool chemicals, pesticides, automotive fluids, gasoline, propane cylinders and batteries all stay out and travel separately.
Tires are a case of their own in Brookhaven and worth planning for. The city runs scrap tires under a manifest that follows the load from the point it is generated through every intermediate stop to an approved end user, processor or disposer. That is paperwork a container cannot absorb, so pull tires out of a demolition load before we collect it.
Electronics, appliances holding refrigerant, mattresses and anything containing asbestos also need their own handling. Ask your account manager about anything you are unsure of, because one wrong item can hold up a whole container at the gate.
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.
Brookhaven sits inside DeKalb County's solid waste territory, and the county names Brookhaven among the cities it serves directly. That makes the county both the service provider here and, on its own published list of services, a competing supplier of construction roll-offs. It is worth knowing when you compare quotes, and it means the disposal end of your job is county infrastructure.
Loads generally travel to the Seminole Road Landfill at 4203 Clevemont Road, Ellenwood, GA 30294, the county's public disposal facility. The weigh-in line is 404-687-4040 and the gate runs Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., closed on county holidays. Closer to home, the county also operates the North Transfer Station at 4600 Buford Highway, Chamblee, GA 30341, a few minutes from Brookhaven, open Monday to Friday 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday morning until 12:30 p.m., and the county describes its transfer stations as commercial disposal sites.
Which of the two takes your load depends on what is in it, and that is a question we settle before the truck is loaded rather than at the gate. Sorting still pays: clean concrete, clean untreated wood and metal each have their own outlet in this part of the metro. Your account manager confirms the destination and flags anything that has to travel on its own.
4203 Clevemont Road, Ellenwood, GA 30294
DeKalb County public disposal facility. Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
4600 Buford Highway, Chamblee, GA 30341
DeKalb County transfer station. Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday until 12:30 p.m.
Brookhaven orders are usually scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery inside a 24 to 48 hour window. Build in extra time if the container cannot go on private ground, because a public-road placement needs a conversation with public works first.
Five habits that keep a Brookhaven drop on time:
The county transfer station on Buford Highway closes at midday on Saturday, so a container loaded out late on a Saturday will usually be emptied the following week.

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.
Brookhaven 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. The weight of what you load and the county disposal charge move the final figure. Your account manager fixes the included tonnage and the overage rate against the DeKalb County charge at booking.
For a Brookhaven job past a couple of truckloads, the container comes out cheaper. Self-hauling to Ellenwood means a charge at every visit, the fuel, loading twice and most of a day in traffic. One container does the job in a single haul and keeps the debris off your driveway.
It will. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a bed frame, a dresser and a dozen household cartons. Soft furniture eats volume fast but hardly registers against the weight allowance.
No acids, explosives, flammable liquids or corrosive material, which Brookhaven bars from any container set out for collection. That rules out paint, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides, gasoline, propane cylinders and batteries. Tires need their own manifest and travel separately.
In Brookhaven the 10-yard container opens lowest, at $399 to $499. Whether it is genuinely cheapest depends on your material. Brookhaven renovation debris full of plaster and tile can reach the weight allowance in a half-full 10-yard container, so two sorted containers sometimes cost less than one mixed one.
Three days in Brookhaven is normally priced like five, because the delivery, the haul and the county disposal charge are what you are paying for. Weight is the variable. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each additional ton costs.
Wood, drywall, plaster, flooring, roofing, cabinets, doors, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout material are all allowed in Brookhaven. Clean concrete, brick and asphalt are accepted too and usually cost less in a container of their own. Put anything unusual to your Brookhaven account manager first.
