At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Chamblee, Georgia, and the inside-the-perimeter side of DeKalb County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Infill construction and townhome development around Peachtree Boulevard run continuously, the older ranch housing north of Dresden Drive turns over for renovation, and commercial tenant work along Buford Highway keeps larger containers busy.
Your cost comes down to the container size, the weight and type of the debris, the number of days the container stays, and the disposal charge at the county landfill that takes the load. Below you will find price ranges, who may haul here and under what conditions, what has to stay out, and how fast delivery can be arranged.

Chamblee is one of the few cities in this part of DeKalb County where private firms may serve commercial customers, and that is the starting point for understanding a quote here.
The City licenses commercial sanitation firms and sets the terms they work under, which include a service window of Monday through Saturday, 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., with Sunday collection only by written permission from the City Manager. That window is why pickup and delivery slots here are tighter than in some neighboring markets, and it is worth factoring into a weekend push on a job site.
Container size is the obvious lever. On a tight infill lot a size up is usually the right call, because a swap costs more than the extra capacity and there is rarely room to stage a second container.
Weight is the next factor. Red clay soil, brick, slab concrete and ceramic tile are dense; framing offcuts, siding, drywall and cabinetry are light and bulky. One heavy element prices the whole load as heavy, so masonry and soil normally travel in their own container.
Yard debris is the fourth, and in Chamblee it is a rule rather than a preference. Mixing yard trimmings into municipal solid waste is unlawful inside the city, so a landscaping component needs separating out before the container is loaded.

Start with the volume of debris and then check it against the weight limit. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the dense-load container, and the right pick on a narrow lot. Use it for a bathroom strip-out, a driveway or walkway removal, or a load of brick and concrete.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage cleared to the walls, a kitchen rebuild, or a single-layer shingle tear-off on a smaller roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the most popular choice for Chamblee homes. It handles a whole-house cleanout or a remodel spanning several rooms, and it still fits on most driveways here.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for additions, townhome construction and heavier demolition, where framing, drywall, flooring and fixtures all come out together.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest container we run in DeKalb County. It suits commercial tenant strip-outs, warehouse clearances and demolition that produces high volumes of light material.
Caught between two sizes on a tight site? Describe the job to your account manager and we will fit it to the lot with you.
A container on private property, such as a driveway or a fenced commercial lot, needs no City permit in Chamblee, and that covers the great majority of work here.
What the City does set out is a placement standard that applies wherever the container sits. Containers may not be located so as to interfere with, block, obstruct or impede the normal use of any sidewalk, street, alley, driveway or fire lane, or to block or impede sight distance at a street, road or alley intersection. On the narrow lots common in this city that standard does real work, because a container set too close to the apron can block a sight line even on private ground.
Encroachment permitting sits with the Public Works Department, whose Transportation division handles it alongside streets, sidewalks and traffic signals. The department page gives 470-395-2307 as its line. There is one more condition worth knowing: every container has to display the servicing company's name and telephone number in a conspicuous spot, so an unmarked container is a problem on sight.
Your account manager can confirm whether your drop spot clears the City's placement standard before the truck is dispatched.
Most construction and household debris is accepted. The hard limits here are local rather than statewide, because Georgia publishes no single banned-materials table.
Chamblee's own rule on yard trimmings is the one that catches renovation jobs with a landscaping element. Placing or mixing yard trimmings with municipal solid waste is unlawful inside the city, and yard trimmings also cannot be disposed of at a lined municipal solid waste facility inside the city limits. Branch, limb and clipping debris therefore needs its own container or its own route.
Scrap tires have a full set of city rules of their own covering storage, handling, disposal and accumulation, so tires never belong loose in a mixed load. Dumping of any kind is prohibited outside permitted sites, with one narrow exception for clean fill material placed on private property with the owner's permission and graded level afterwards.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil and asbestos stay out of a standard container anywhere. If an item sits in the grey area, ask 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.
Chamblee sits outside the county's intergovernmental collection arrangement, which is why private licensed firms serve businesses here while the City handles residential trash with its own crews. Disposal, though, still runs through the county's public site.
The Seminole Road Landfill at 4203 Clevemont Road, Ellenwood, GA 30294 is DeKalb County's own public disposal facility, and the county's own listing gives its hours as Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Saturday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Its gate telephone is 404-687-4040. The county's solid waste call center line, which answers general questions, is 404-294-2900.
The practical point for a Chamblee job is distance. The landfill sits well to the south of the city, which makes the haul longer than the map inside the perimeter suggests, and that distance is already built into your quote. It also means a container filled late on a Saturday afternoon is normally pulled the following week.
Your account manager confirms where your load is going and explains the disposal charges before your container is delivered.
4203 Clevemont Road, Ellenwood, GA 30294
DeKalb County's public disposal facility, Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Most Chamblee rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Two or three days of notice helps here, because traffic inside the perimeter narrows the usable part of the day.
Five habits make delivery day straightforward:
Service hours matter at both ends. Licensed firms may work here Monday through Saturday between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., with Sunday service only by written City permission, so evening and Sunday slots are not available.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves Chamblee and the surrounding DeKalb County communities, from the blocks around the Rail Trail and Peachtree Boulevard across to the Buford Highway and Dresden Drive corridors. One local point shapes every order: the City licenses the commercial sanitation firms that may work here and fixes the hours they may collect in, and a container used for building and scrap construction material is treated differently from one holding household trash. Your account manager confirms how those rules apply to your address and your project before anything is booked.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container for the lot as well as the load, confirm the disposal route, and give you a firm 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.
Chamblee rentals start at $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and reach $699 to $899 for a 40-yard on a five-day period. Debris weight and the haul south to the county landfill both affect the total. Your account manager confirms the DeKalb tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
Past a load or two, the container wins. The county landfill sits well south of Chamblee, so each self-haul trip means a long round trip through metro traffic plus a gate charge and most of a day. One container closes the job in a single arrangement.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves room for a bed frame, a dresser and a stack of cartons. Furniture is bulky rather than dense, so you fill the space long before the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil, asbestos, liquids and scrap tires. Chamblee also makes it unlawful to mix yard trimmings with municipal solid waste, so branches and clippings need their own route. Ask your account manager about anything unusual.
The Chamblee 10-yard container carries the lowest start, $399 to $499. The cheapest outcome depends on the load. Red clay soil, brick and slab concrete reach a small container's weight allowance early, so a dedicated heavy load often saves more than dropping a size.
A three-day rental generally costs what five days costs, because containers are priced by the job and not by the day. The weight of the debris moves your invoice far more than the calendar. Confirm the included tonnage and the per-ton overage with your account manager first.
Framing lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, trim, cabinetry, siding, fencing, furniture, cardboard and general household goods all load fine in Chamblee. Clean brick, concrete and asphalt are accepted as well and cost less in their own load. Check borderline items with your account manager.
