At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Burbank, California, and the surrounding Los Angeles County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Burbank keeps a steady stream of work going, from studio and production facility build-outs along Olive and San Fernando to kitchen and bath remodels in Magnolia Park and construction on the hillside lots above Glenoaks.
What you pay depends on container size, the type and weight of your debris, how long you keep the container, and the city rules that apply to any hauler working inside Burbank. Below you'll find our price ranges, the street permit rule, the recycling duty on construction jobs, and what has to stay out of the container.

Burbank has more moving parts than most cities, and they all land somewhere in the price.
Container size still leads. Choosing one size up usually costs less than a second haul or an overage charge on a container you filled past its weight allowance.
Debris weight comes next. Stucco, tile, plaster, and concrete from an older Burbank house are dense, so a small container of rubble can outweigh a big container of cabinets and framing.
The city's own rules carry real cost here, and they're public. Burbank charges every private hauler an annual permit, a license for each vehicle used in the business at $122.47 a year, and a quarterly waste management fee set at 20 percent of a hauler's gross revenues in the city. Those are hauler-side costs rather than line items on your invoice, but they are part of why Los Angeles County pricing sits where it does.
Street placement adds a permit fee. The city's own fee schedule puts the non-refundable street use permit approval at $77.54 at a single-family address and $148.66 for multi-family or commercial, and a container in a parking meter zone picks up a separate daily charge on top.
Construction jobs carry one more duty. A project that needs a building or demolition permit has to divert most of its debris from landfill, which usually means sorting on site or sending the load to a processing facility rather than straight to a hole in the ground.

Burbank lots are often narrow and the streets are tight, so size here is about access as much as volume. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest and the easiest to place on a short driveway. It handles a bathroom gut, a small cleanout, or a dense load of stucco and concrete that would overload anything bigger.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a packed garage, flooring from a couple of rooms, or a small roof tear-off. It's the usual step up when a 10-yard looks tight.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the most common choice for Burbank remodels and full-house cleanouts. It holds a lot while still fitting a standard residential driveway.
The 30-Yard Dumpster takes a down-to-studs renovation, an addition, or a commercial tenant improvement. Pick it when the debris is bulky rather than heavy.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container, built for studio and production build-outs, commercial demolition, and industrial cleanouts.
If access is the question rather than volume, describe the street and the driveway to your account manager and they'll pick a size that can actually get in.
A container on private property, like a driveway or a fenced job site, doesn't need a street permit in Burbank. Once any part of it sits in the street or on the sidewalk, the city requires a street use permit first.
Burbank names roll-off bins in that permit by name. The city's Public Works permit page says street use permits cover the temporary placement of roll-off bins and containers, and that a roll-off bin permit is valid for 14 days while other street use permits run up to five days. Depending on where the container goes, the city may require a traffic control plan, which is routed through its Traffic Division. Applicants also have to meet the city's insurance requirements, and a refundable deposit may apply.
There is a second rule in Burbank that matters more than the permit, and it applies everywhere in the city, including on private property. City code says no one other than an authorized collector may place a roll-off container inside Burbank, and a container belonging to an unlicensed hauler can be removed by the Public Works Department and becomes city property. That makes the hauler's own city licensing the first question on any Burbank job, not an afterthought.
To reach the counter, call Burbank Public Works at 818-238-3950 or make an appointment through its online counter. Your account manager will confirm how the city's collector rules apply to your address before anything is scheduled.
Before you book, confirm with the city that a container can be placed for your job at your address. Rules differ from city to city and they change. Your Prime Dumpster account manager will help you check, and will tell you plainly what your options are here.
Everyday remodeling and jobsite debris is fine. The limits come from California law, from Burbank's own code, and from the facility that receives the load.
California treats electronic waste, batteries, paint, used oil, and fluorescent lamps as universal waste, and none of it can be landfilled. Burbank code also makes it unlawful to put dangerous substances or hazardous waste in any collection container, and its excluded waste list covers anything volatile, corrosive, or infectious, along with medical and radioactive waste and anything a Class III landfill cannot take.
In plain terms, keep out paint, solvents, fuel, antifreeze, pesticides, pool chemicals, pressurized cylinders, asbestos, liquids, and medical waste. Tires, mattresses, and appliances holding refrigerant all need separate handling and are usually billed per item.
Burbank also inspects. Its code authorizes the city to inspect any collection container, any vehicle load, and any receiving facility, and it allows remote monitoring of containers for prohibited contents. A contaminated load is a real risk here, not a theoretical one, so declare anything unusual to your account manager before it goes in.
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.
Burbank is unusual in one respect worth knowing up front. The city runs its own landfill, but its adopted fee schedule states that outside public dumping is not allowed there, so a third-party container does not go to the city site. Instead, a licensed hauler has to tell the city in writing which facilities it will take Burbank material to, and on a permitted construction job the waste management plan names the receiving facility as well.
The city facility you can use directly is the Burbank Recycle Center at 500 S. Flower St., Burbank, CA 91502. It processes curbside recyclables and runs a drop-off service for Burbank residents, open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Its e-waste Drop Zone runs Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Call 818-238-3900 before you load anything unusual.
There is also a diversion duty on construction work. A Burbank project that needs a building or demolition permit must divert at least 65 percent of its construction and demolition debris by reuse or recycling, file an approved waste management plan with the permit application, keep that plan on site, and report compliance afterward. Your account manager can confirm which facility is receiving your container and how the paperwork lines up before delivery.
500 S. Flower St., Burbank, CA 91502
City drop-off site for Burbank residents, open Monday through Saturday.
Most Burbank rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking earlier matters more here than in most cities, because the street permit and the licensing questions take a little lead time.
These five habits save the most time:
One scheduling note specific to Burbank: because the receiving facility is chosen by the hauler and reported to the city rather than being a public city scale, haul-away is set by that facility's hours. Your account manager will give you the pickup day when you book.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges delivery throughout Burbank, from Magnolia Park and Rancho to the Media District, Downtown Burbank, and the hillside streets above Glenoaks, and on into the surrounding Los Angeles County communities. Wherever the job sits, we coordinate delivery, pickup, and disposal around your schedule and the city's permit timing.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll size the container with you, walk through the city's permit and collector rules, and quote the job 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.
Expect $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Debris weight, the receiving facility's rate, and the city's permit and hauler fees all feed into the final figure. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
In Burbank, renting is nearly always cheaper. The city landfill does not take outside loads at all, so self-hauling means driving to a commercial facility, paying its gate charge each trip, and spending your own hours loading twice over. One container covers the whole job in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which still leaves space for a mattress, a dresser, and bagged household items. With furniture you run out of room long before you reach the weight allowance.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, antifreeze, pesticides, pool chemicals, pressurized cylinders, asbestos, and medical waste. California also bars electronics, batteries, and fluorescent lamps from landfill. Tires, mattresses, and refrigerant-holding appliances need separate handling, so name them when you book.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. What goes in still decides the bill. Burbank's older housing produces a lot of stucco, plaster, and tile, which can pass a small container's weight allowance quickly, so keeping dense material in its own load is often cheaper overall.
Three days usually costs the same as five, because containers are priced by the job rather than by the day. Weight drives the invoice far more than the calendar. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before delivery.
Most home and jobsite debris is allowed: lumber, drywall, plaster, stucco, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, carpet, and general cleanout junk. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too and often handle better in their own container. On a permitted project, remember the city's recycling duty and check the plan with your account manager.
