At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Inkster, Michigan, and the surrounding western Wayne County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Inkster is a city of small postwar houses on tight lots, and most of the work here is exactly that: roofs, kitchens, basements after a wet spring, and full cleanouts when a property changes hands. Add the demolition and infill construction the city has seen along Michigan Avenue and Inkster Road, and containers stay busy.
Four things decide your price: the size you order, the weight of the load, how long the container stays, and what the receiving landfill charges. Below you will find our ranges, how the street rules work here, the license your hauler needs, and what Michigan keeps out of a landfill.

A few local things decide what an Inkster job costs.
Size comes first, and the lots here make it a real choice. Driveways are short and houses sit close together, so the biggest container is not always the one that fits. Your account manager can size it from a description of the job and the space.
Weight comes next. Disposal is sold by the ton, and the plaster, brick and layered shingles on these postwar houses are heavy for their volume. Tell us what is coming out and we will plan for the scale rather than the space.
Where the load goes matters too. There is no public landfill in this part of Wayne County, so everything travels west to a landfill out by Hannan and Van Born. That trip is part of what disposal costs here.
Then there are the local rules, which are lighter than in most cities but real. Inkster licenses the companies that haul waste and asks them to post a bond, and contractors working in the city register with the City first. Your account manager confirms all of that before a truck is scheduled.

Work out the volume, check the weight, then measure the driveway. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the compact one, and on Inkster's short driveways it is often the only size that fits without touching the street. Use it for a bathroom gut, a porch teardown, or broken concrete. Heavy material belongs here, because the weight limit lands first.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is the next step up. It takes a garage, a basement, or carpet and flooring pulled from several rooms, with only a little more room needed.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Inkster homeowners book. It handles a full house cleanout, a kitchen and bath done together, or a tear-off on a typical single-family roof.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for gut renovations, additions, and demolition work.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest and is built for commercial jobs and larger demolition, where the debris is bulky and light.
Not sure which fits your lot? Describe the driveway and the job to your account manager and they will settle it with you.
On private property, like your own driveway or a fenced site, you generally need no City permit in Inkster. That is the simple path here, and on most Inkster lots it is achievable with the right size container.
The street is a different matter. Inkster publishes a full index of its forms and permits, and there is no permit on it written for a container and no general right-of-way permit either. What the City does publish is a block party and street closure application through the City Clerk, and a contractor registration that any contractor working in the city has to complete.
Because the City has no standard form for this, a street placement in Inkster is a phone call rather than a download. The Department of Public Service can be reached at 313-563-9774 and Code Enforcement at 313-563-2820. City Hall is at 26215 Trowbridge and the main number is 313-563-4236.
No fee and no time limit is published for a container in the street. Your account manager will help you work out whether your spot is private property at all, and who to call if it is not.
Most building and household debris loads with no trouble. The limits come from Michigan's rules and from the City's own instructions.
Michigan keeps a firm list out of every landfill in the state. That list covers deposit containers, yard waste, used oil, bulk liquids, whole tires, empty drums, hazardous waste, lead acid batteries and low-level radioactive waste. Asbestos, material containing PCBs and septage need special handling and approval before any landfill will take them.
The City is blunt about hazardous material: never set it at the curb. Its own examples include bathroom cleaners, batteries, furniture polish, lawn and garden chemicals, old computers, paint, pesticides, shellac, stains, transmission fluid, turpentine and used motor oil. Wayne County runs the drop-off program for all of that, and the coordinator can be reached at 734-326-3936.
Yard waste is worth flagging separately. Michigan bars it from landfills, and the City collects it on its own schedule through the growing season, so it does not belong in the container. If an item has you guessing, ask your account manager before it goes over the side.
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.
Western Wayne County has no public landfill, so debris from an Inkster job leaves the city. The City of Inkster points residents to the landfill out at Hannan and Van Born Roads for anything its own service will not take, and that is where most container loads from here end up. It is privately run, so the City does not publish its hours or rates. What is consistent is that loads are weighed, which is why the weight of your debris drives the bill more than the number of days.
The City's own contracted curbside service covers household trash, recycling and yard waste, with bulk pickup every week and no limit on the number of items. Heavy things like stoves, refrigerators, freezers and furniture are collected on your regular day if you call 24 hours ahead. Those are good options for a small cleanout, but none of them take construction debris, which is where a container earns its keep.
Household hazardous material goes to Wayne County rather than to a landfill or the curb. Your account manager will confirm which material belongs in the container and what needs a separate route before the truck is scheduled.
Most dumpster rentals in Inkster can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the truck arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A little extra notice helps on the narrow residential streets, where the driver needs room to swing the container into place. Booking early can also save you money.
Here is how to keep delivery day simple:
Plan around the landfill's week too. It is a drive from Inkster and keeps weekday hours, so a container filled late on a Friday is usually hauled the following week.

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.
Dumpster rentals in Inkster run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, based on a five-day rental. Weight moves the number most, since the landfill is a drive away and every load is weighed. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
Renting wins once a job gets past a trailer load. The landfill is out west of the city, every trip costs fuel and a charge at the gate, and a pickup holds very little of a torn-off roof. One container clears the whole job in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves space for a mattress, a dresser and a stack of boxes. With bulky soft furniture you run out of room long before you reach the weight allowance, so volume is what to plan around.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, used oil, lead acid batteries, whole tires, empty drums and yard waste, all of which Michigan bars from a landfill. Paint, cleaners, pesticides, stains and transmission fluid go to the County program instead. Asbestos needs special handling, so tell your account manager before anything like that is loaded.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499, and on a short Inkster driveway it is often the practical choice anyway. The load still decides your bill. Plaster, brick and shingles reach the weight allowance quickly, so keeping dense material in a load of its own usually costs less.
Three days normally costs the same as the standard five-day rental, because containers are priced by the job and not by the day. Weight drives the bill far more than the calendar. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before delivery.
Most home and construction debris is fine in Inkster. Lumber, drywall, plaster, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, furniture, carpet and general cleanout junk all work. Clean concrete and brick are accepted too and cost less in their own load. If one item has you unsure, your account manager can check it first.
