At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Easton, Pennsylvania, and the Lehigh Valley towns around it in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Row-house renovations in the College Hill and West Ward neighborhoods, rental turnover downtown, and construction along the Route 22 corridor all keep roll-offs in steady demand here.
Your total depends on the size you pick, the weight you load, the length of the rental, and what the receiving facility charges. Below you will find prices, the City's dumpster permit rules, what can and cannot go in, and where a load is taken.

Several Easton details feed into a quote.
Capacity comes first. Picking the next size up at the outset is almost always cheaper than ordering a second container when the first fills.
Material density is close behind. Easton's older housing produces plaster, lath, slate and brick, and all of them are heavy. A 10-yard container of plaster can reach its allowance while it still looks half empty.
Street placement is a real factor in a city of narrow row-house streets. Many Easton addresses have no off-street space at all, which means a permit and a defined 30-day window rather than an open-ended rental.
Finally, transport rules add a layer in Pennsylvania. Trucks carrying municipal or residual waste to a state facility need a state transporter authorization, and the facility is barred from taking a load without one. A segregated clean hard load sits outside that regime while a mixed load does not, which is worth knowing when you plan how to separate material.

Work out the volume, then check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes between 10 and 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster suits a bathroom gut, a small chimney or porch removal, or a load of brick and plaster where weight is the binding limit.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a basement or attic cleanout and small slate or shingle tear-offs on a College Hill rowhouse.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the usual pick for a full property cleanout or a renovation reaching several rooms. It is also the largest that fits comfortably on many Easton streets.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for additions, full gut jobs and new construction, where lumber, drywall and packaging accumulate quickly.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest, intended for commercial demolition, warehouse projects and industrial cleanouts with space to park it.
Caught between two sizes, especially on a tight downtown street? Describe the site to your account manager and they will advise.
If the container stays on private property, such as a driveway or a rear yard, you will not need a City permit. On a great many Easton properties that is not an option, and the street is the only place a container can go.
For a street placement the City requires a dumpster permit issued by the Police Department. A dumpster permit is valid for 30 days unless the Police Department gives express permission for longer, and renewal fees apply after that. Every application has to come with a sketch showing where the container will sit, and the permit itself must be kept with you and fixed to the container while it is in the right of way.
The conditions are specific. A container may not be placed on a sidewalk unless the Police Department has given express permission and noted it on the permit. It must not extend into the travel portion of any roadway. Anything within the cartway has to be clearly marked with reflectors or reflective tape, and every dumpster must be covered when it is not in use.
Two removal clauses matter on winter jobs. If an emergency such as a water main break or a fire requires immediate removal, that removal is at the renter's expense. During a snow emergency the City may order immediate removal from any snow emergency route, again at the renter's cost.
The City publishes the permit fee in its fee rules rather than online, so check the current figure when you apply. Call the City of Easton at 610-250-6600, Monday to Friday 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, or let your account manager find the right contact for you.
Most construction and cleanout debris is welcome. The limits come from Pennsylvania waste rules and from the receiving facility.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil and asbestos all stay out. Residual and hazardous wastes fall outside the City's municipal waste rules entirely and need specialist handling.
Televisions and computers cannot be put in the trash in Easton, so set electronics aside before loading starts.
Recyclables are a separate matter here. Easton operates mandatory source separation for homes and for commercial, institutional and educational properties, so glass, cans, cardboard, paper and plastic containers are meant to be kept out of the waste stream rather than mixed into a container.
Tires and large appliances should also be kept separate and mentioned when you book. If something is borderline, 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.
Easton has no municipal landfill. Loads from the city travel to permitted facilities in and around Northampton County, all of which are privately run, so we confirm the destination with you rather than listing one here.
What the City does run, and what is genuinely useful on a renovation, is the City of Easton Recycling Drop-Off Center at 500 Bushkill Drive, Easton, PA 18042, just west of the 4th Street exit ramp. It is part of the Public Works municipal complex and it is open Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., closed when City Hall is closed for holidays. The number is 610-250-6680.
Unusually, the drop-off center is open to businesses as well as residents, for acceptable recyclable materials only. It takes commingled plastic, glass and cans, mixed paper, cardboard, and leaves and yard waste. It does not take food waste, garbage, household appliances, plastic bags, polystyrene packaging, window glass, mirrors or light bulbs.
Pulling clean cardboard and metal out of your container and running it to Bushkill Drive can cut what you pay to dispose of the rest. Your account manager will confirm the destination for the remaining material and the disposal charge before delivery.
500 Bushkill Drive, Easton, PA 18042
Run by the City of Easton Public Works Department. Open Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Recyclable materials only.
Most Easton rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Build in extra time if the container is going in the street, because the permit and the location sketch have to be done first.
These steps keep things moving:
Plan around the winter too. A snow emergency can mean immediate removal from a declared route, so booking a shorter rental in January is often the smarter move.

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 10-yard container runs $399 to $499 and a 40-yard container runs $699 to $899 on a five-day rental. Material weight and the receiving facility's charge both shift the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate before the container is dispatched.
Doing it yourself means a charge at every gate plus fuel and several hours of driving. Easton has no municipal landfill, so each trip is a real journey. Beyond two or three loads a single container is almost always cheaper, and it saves the weekend.
Yes. A three-seat couch uses roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a mattress, a wardrobe and boxes. With bulky furniture the space runs out well before the weight allowance does.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil and asbestos are excluded. Televisions and computers cannot go in the trash in Easton. Glass, cans, cardboard, paper and plastic containers are subject to mandatory separation, so they belong in recycling rather than in a mixed load.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. On Easton's older properties, though, plaster and slate can take a small container past its weight allowance early. Putting dense demolition material in its own load is frequently the cheaper answer overall.
Three days is normally priced the same as five, because the rate covers the job rather than each day. Weight affects your bill far more than duration. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what extra tons cost before the container arrives.
Lumber, drywall, plaster, lath, slate, roofing, flooring, cabinets, doors, furniture, carpet and general cleanout material are all acceptable. Clean concrete, brick and block are accepted too and often cost less kept separate. Ask your account manager about anything unusual.
