At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Fort Pierce, Florida, and the rest of St. Lucie County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Older homes near the downtown waterfront, steady roof and window work along the coast, and new construction out toward the interstate keep containers busy for both homeowners and contractors here.
Your price depends on the size you pick, the type of debris you load, how long you keep the container, and what the county charges to take the load. Below you will find our price ranges, the rule for putting a container on a city street, what has to stay out of the load, and where your debris ends up.

Four things move the number on a Fort Pierce quote, and the first is simply how much room you need.
Size leads. A larger container costs more at the start, yet the right size saves you the cost of a second haul or an overage charge later.
Weight matters as much as volume. Roof shingles, tile, stucco, and broken concrete run heavy, so a small container loaded with dense material can hit its limit while it still looks half empty.
The drop-off point counts too. Loads from Fort Pierce go to the county facility on Glades Cut-Off Road, and St. Lucie County sets the charge at the scale, not us.
Local rules round it out. A container on your own driveway is straightforward. One that sits in a city street needs a permit from the City of Fort Pierce first, and the county requires every load from the city to go to a facility it runs or approves. Your account manager sorts both out before the truck rolls.

Pick your size from two numbers: how much debris the job makes, and how heavy that debris is. We carry five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest we rent. It suits a single bathroom, a small garage cleanout, or a yard project. It is also the right call for concrete, block, and roof tile, which reach the weight limit long before the walls fill up.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers mid-size work. Think one room stripped to the studs, a tear-off on a small roof, or old carpet and tile pulled from a few rooms at once.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Fort Pierce homeowners end up with. It handles a full house cleanout, a kitchen and bath done together, or a storm cleanup with mixed debris.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits a big remodel, an addition, or a new build. It gives a crew room to keep working without waiting on a swap.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It is built for commercial tear-outs, demolition, and light industrial cleanouts that turn out a lot of bulky material.
Still weighing two sizes? Tell your account manager what the job involves and they will point you to the one that costs you less.
A container parked on private property, such as your driveway or inside the fence line of a job site, does not need a dumpster permit from the City of Fort Pierce. The answer changes the moment any part of it rests in a street, an alley, or another city right-of-way.
For that, the city's Department of Engineering is the office you need. Engineering approves and issues the right-of-way, utility, and driveway permits for work in city property, and it publishes a Permit Application to Work in Right-of-Way you fill out and return.
The city does not publish a fee or a turnaround time for it, so build in a few days. Start the request before you lock in a delivery date, not after.
You can reach the Department of Engineering at 772-467-3773, and the department page lists the office at 100 N. U.S. Highway 1. If you are not certain whether your drop spot is private property or city right-of-way, your account manager can help you check with the right person.
Everyday construction and cleanout debris is welcome. The limits come from Florida's disposal rules and from what the county facility will take at the scale.
Hazardous waste, liquids, wet paint, solvents, fuel, used oil, and asbestos stay out of any standard container. So do flammable liquids and anything explosive, which Fort Pierce bars from waste containers of every kind.
Florida requires yard trash to be kept separate from other waste, both when it is set out and when it reaches the disposal site. Grass, palm fronds, and branches belong in their own load, not mixed into a remodel load.
Fort Pierce also draws a hard line around construction debris itself. The city bars putting construction and demolition debris into a container meant for other kinds of waste, and its own wording says that mixing construction debris with anything else strips the load of its construction debris classification. In plain terms, a clean load of lumber, drywall, and roofing costs less and causes fewer problems than the same material tossed in with bagged household trash.
Tires, appliances, and electronics should be set aside and mentioned when you book. If an item has you guessing, ask your account manager before it goes over the rail.
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.
Nearly everything hauled out of Fort Pierce lands at the St. Lucie County Solid Waste Baling and Recycling Facility at 6120 Glades Cut-Off Road, Fort Pierce, FL 34981. The county runs it, and the site takes waste from homes and businesses across St. Lucie County.
It is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., and it is closed on Sundays. Trucks that unload by hand have to be on the scale 45 minutes before closing.
One county rule shapes every job here. All waste produced anywhere in St. Lucie County, inside the cities too, has to be disposed of at a facility the county operates or approves. That takes the destination off the table as a variable, which also means the county's charge at the scale is part of your price. Your account manager will confirm where your load goes and what that adds before delivery.
6120 Glades Cut-Off Road, Fort Pierce, FL 34981
Open Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., closed Sundays.
Most Fort Pierce orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A little lead time is worth having, since it leaves room for a right-of-way permit and a cleared drop spot.
These five habits keep a delivery smooth:
Watch the weekend, too. The county facility shuts on Sunday and closes at 1 p.m. on Saturday, so a container filled late in the week may wait until Monday to be emptied.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges delivery across the City of Fort Pierce and the surrounding parts of St. Lucie County, from the downtown waterfront and Lincoln Park to the Indian River Drive neighborhoods, the Orange Avenue corridor, and the newer construction west of the interstate. Wherever the job sits, we line up the drop, the pickup, and the trip to the county facility around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will match the size to the work, check whether your spot needs a city permit, and quote you a firm number 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.
A 10-yard container runs $399 to $499 and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, on a five-day rental. Where you land in between depends on the size you choose, how heavy the load is, and what St. Lucie County charges at the scale. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
Hauling it yourself only wins on the smallest jobs. Once you are past a load or two, the scale charges, the fuel, and the hours behind the wheel add up past the cost of one container sitting in the driveway until the work is finished.
It will. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves plenty of room for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of boxes. With furniture you nearly always run out of space before you run out of weight.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, wet paint, solvents, fuel, used oil, and asbestos. Fort Pierce also bars flammable liquids and explosives from waste containers, and Florida wants yard trash kept in its own load. Set tires, appliances, and electronics aside and mention them when you book.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499. The catch is weight. Fill a small container with tile, block, or wet stucco and you can pass the included tonnage quickly. Keeping dense rubble in its own load is usually the cheaper way through.
Three days normally costs what five days costs, because the price is built around the job rather than the calendar. Weight moves your bill far more than time does. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before the container arrives.
Most home and job-site debris is fine, including lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, cardboard, and general cleanout junk. Clean concrete, block, and asphalt are accepted as well, and they are cheaper to handle when kept in their own load. Check anything unusual with your account manager first.
