At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Eastpointe, Michigan, and the nearby Macomb County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Eastpointe's housing stock is mostly compact post-war brick, so basement cleanouts, kitchen and bath updates, garage teardowns, and construction and roofing work keep containers busy on narrow residential lots.
Your price depends on the container size, what you load and how heavy it is, how long the container stays, and the disposal charges at the landfill that receives the material. Below you will find our price ranges, the City's rules for a container near a street, and what cannot go in.

Four things move the price on an Eastpointe job, and the first two are the ones you control.
Size comes first. Eastpointe driveways are often short and shared, so the biggest container is not always the best one. A 15 or 20 yard container usually fits where a 30 will not, and getting that right avoids a second move.
Weight is next. Brick, block, plaster, and old concrete all run heavy, and Eastpointe homes produce plenty of all three. Dense material will reach the included tonnage while the container still looks half empty, so a separate masonry load is often cheaper than one mixed load.
Disposal is the third. Macomb County has a single licensed landfill, out on 29 Mile Road in Lenox Township, and its charges are set by the operator rather than by us. Your account manager will confirm what applies to your material.
City rules are the fourth. Eastpointe's own collection will not take rocks, dirt, brick, broken concrete, or building material at all, and a street placement needs a permit with a deposit and an insurance filing behind it. Those are planning costs worth knowing up front.

Pick by volume, then check the weight, then check the driveway. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes here, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the right call for heavy, compact loads and tight lots. Broken porch concrete, brick, block, dirt, and a single bathroom gut all suit it, and it will sit on a short Eastpointe drive without hanging into the sidewalk.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is the middle ground for a garage clear-down, a basement cleanout, or a small shingle job. It gives real extra room without a big jump in price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the most common choice in Eastpointe. It takes a kitchen and bath remodel together, a full basement, or a whole house of furniture and household junk.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for volume work: a full re-roof, an addition, or a garage teardown that produces more mixed debris than a smaller container can hold.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. Commercial interior work, light industrial clearing, and longer demolition jobs along the Gratiot corridor are where it earns its keep.
If you are unsure, tell your account manager the project and the width of your driveway and they will size it with you.
A container on your own driveway or on a private job site does not need a City permit in Eastpointe. That covers most residential work here, and it is the simplest route.
The street is different, and the rule is specific. Eastpointe's code says no person may occupy any street with materials or machinery connected with the construction, demolition, or repair of a nearby building without first getting a permit from the City Clerk, paying the fee, posting a cash deposit, and filing an insurance policy. The code also bars placing any article or obstruction in a street outside that permit, apart from brief loading and lawful parking.
Apply at Eastpointe City Hall, 23200 Gratiot Avenue, where the City Clerk's office issues the forms. You can reach City Hall at 586-445-3661. Office hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the offices are closed on Fridays and major holidays, so leave yourself time.
Two practical notes. The permit is valid only for the period written on it, and the cash deposit is refunded six months after the work is finished, less any City costs. The fee, the deposit, and the insurance minimum are all set by council resolution rather than printed in the code, so call before you plan around them. Your account manager can help you decide whether your drop spot counts as street or private property and point you to the right desk.
Lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, doors, siding, carpet, furniture, and ordinary cleanout junk are all fine in a container. The limits come from Michigan's landfill rules and from what each facility will take at the gate.
Michigan bans certain materials from landfill disposal and puts the duty on the hauler to tell customers what they are. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy also makes the point that a disposal facility does not have to accept everything the rules allow, and many refuse material they could legally take.
In practice that means hazardous waste, liquids, wet paint, paint thinner, fuel and fuel containers, household cleaners, solvents, and asbestos all stay out of your container. Smoke detectors are also handled separately because of what is inside them. For household chemicals, the Macomb County Health Department runs the collection program.
Tires are limited rather than banned, appliances with refrigerant need their own handling, and mattresses have to be wrapped at the City yard. All three are usually billed per piece rather than by weight, so declare them when you order.
Loads also have to be covered in transit under Michigan's rules, which is one more reason to keep the container level rather than heaped. If a material has you guessing, 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.
Eastpointe's household collection is not built for building work. The City's code says rocks, dirt, sod, brick, broken concrete, and other construction, alteration, or repair material must not go in household containers, will not be picked up, and have to be taken to a private disposal site by the contractor or the property owner. Fencing, old lumber, gutters, downspouts, and tree stumps over three inches across are in the same position.
For residents, the City runs its own drop-off at the Department of Public Works Yard, 17800 Ten Mile Road, Eastpointe, MI 48021. It opens on the first Monday of each month, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., with proof of residency required, and the number is 586-445-5053. It accepts dirt, blocks, concrete, rocks, wood, metal, non-refrigerant appliances, brush, used motor oil, empty paint cans, up to two tires per resident, and wrapped mattresses. The City can refuse any load.
Contractor volumes go further afield. Macomb County's licensed landfill sits on 29 Mile Road in Lenox Township, and larger loads from Eastpointe are commonly weighed in there. Your account manager will confirm which facility is taking your material, and what that means for your tonnage, before the container is scheduled.
17800 Ten Mile Road, Eastpointe, MI 48021
Open to Eastpointe residents on the first Monday of each month, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., with proof of residency.
Most Eastpointe orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. If any part of the container will sit in the street, start earlier, because the City Clerk's permit comes with a deposit and an insurance filing.
Five things make delivery day go smoothly:
Keep collection hours in mind too. Eastpointe's code bars waste collection between 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., so an overnight pickup is not an option here.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster works throughout Eastpointe and the surrounding Macomb County communities, from the neighborhoods along Nine Mile and Ten Mile Roads to the Gratiot Avenue commercial strip and the streets backing onto the Detroit line at Eight Mile. We coordinate the drop, the haul, and the disposal around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container to the driveway as well as the debris, confirm where the load is going, and quote you 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.
The 10-yard container runs $399 to $499 and the 40-yard runs $699 to $899, both on a five-day rental. Debris weight and the receiving landfill's charges move the final number. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
City residents can use the municipal yard once a month for household debris, which is fine for a small job. For a remodel or a tear-off, a container wins. The nearest landfill is a long drive from Eastpointe, and several trips in a pickup cost more in fuel and time than one haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves room for a mattress, chairs, and boxes. Bulky furniture runs out of space long before it runs out of weight allowance.
Keep out hazardous material: wet paint, paint thinner, fuel and fuel containers, household cleaners, solvents, and asbestos. Smoke detectors are handled separately. Tires are limited, appliances with refrigerant need their own route, and mattresses have to be wrapped at the City yard.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499. The cheapest finish is often a different question. Eastpointe projects produce a lot of brick and block, and dense material hits the weight allowance fast, so keeping masonry in its own load usually costs less overall.
Three days generally costs what a five-day rental costs, because the price follows the job rather than the calendar. Weight matters far more than the number of days. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before delivery.
Most home and job site debris is allowed in Eastpointe: lumber, drywall, shingles, siding, flooring, cabinets, doors, carpet, furniture, and general household junk. Clean concrete, brick, and block are accepted as well, and they usually cost less when kept in a separate load. Ask about anything unusual.
