At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Jeffersontown, Kentucky, and the surrounding Jefferson County area in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Basement and kitchen remodeling through the established subdivisions off Watterson Trail, tenant turnovers and new construction in the Bluegrass industrial park, and steady roof and siding work across the city all keep containers moving here.
Your price comes down to four things: the size you pick, how heavy the load is, how long you keep it, and the disposal charge at the far end. Below you will find our ranges, what the City's own collection will not take, the rules for anything placed in a Jeffersontown right-of-way, and how soon delivery can be arranged.

| Size | Average Price Range | Approximate Dimensions | Common Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10-Yard Dumpster | $399–$499 | 12' L × 8' W × 3.5' H | Concrete, brick, and heavy debris; small cleanouts; single-room remodels |
| 15-Yard Dumpster | $449–$569 | 16' L × 7.5' W × 4–5' H | Garage cleanouts, kitchen and bathroom remodels, small roof tear-offs |
| 20-Yard Dumpster | $499–$649 | 22' L × 7.5' W × 4.5' H | Whole-home cleanouts, multi-room renovations, flooring removal, roofing |
| 30-Yard Dumpster | $599–$799 | 22' L × 8' W × 6' H | Major renovations, new residential construction, large commercial projects |
| 40-Yard Dumpster | $699–$899 | 22–24' L × 8' W × 8' H | Commercial demolition, industrial cleanouts, large-scale construction |
Size is the first call, and worth getting right. A container that fills before the job is done means a second haul, which costs more than one step up at the outset.
Weight is the second, and Jeffersontown's housing stock makes it matter. Brick, mortar and concrete are dense enough to reach a weight allowance with the container still looking part empty, while drywall, carpet and cabinetry fill the volume first. On a mixed renovation, splitting the heavy material into its own container usually comes out cheaper than one combined load.
The third factor is what the City will not take, and this is where a container earns its place. The City's bulk service collects one bulky item a week, on at least 24 hours' notice, and it refuses rocks, dirt and construction debris outright. It also refuses tires, batteries, liquids, combustible and hazardous materials, appliances containing Freon, propane tanks and televisions over 32 inches. So a remodel has nowhere to go through the normal service, however patient you are.
Fourth is placement. On private ground a container is straightforward. In a Jeffersontown right-of-way it falls under a specific permit regime, covered in the next section but one, and that regime is the part most worth planning around. Your account manager will work through all four with you before anything is booked.

Choose on volume, then sanity-check the weight. Our Jefferson County fleet covers 10 through 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the Jeffersontown choice for heavy, compact loads. A bathroom gut, a short section of walkway, or a load of brick and block belongs in it, and it will reach its weight limit with room showing above the load line.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a garage cleanout, a single room of flooring, or a small roof section, and it sits comfortably on a standard subdivision driveway.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the usual choice for a whole-house cleanout or a kitchen and bath project running together, with space for drywall and carpet volume.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits additions, new builds and heavier demolition, where debris mounts faster than anyone wants to stop and swap containers.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the biggest unit placed in Jefferson County, built for commercial demolition and the warehouse and tenant clearing work around the Bluegrass corridor.
Describe the job and the drop spot to your account manager and they will size it with you.
On private property, including your driveway or a fenced job site, a container is the ordinary arrangement and the one we aim for.
Anything placed in a Jeffersontown right-of-way is a different matter, because the City has written rules specifically about objects placed there. The Director of Public Works sets time, place and manner regulations under a 2015 city ordinance, and the current version of those rules is dated March 2026. The definition they use is deliberately wide: an object means any item to be placed in the right-of-way. If your container has to sit in the street, that is what it is.
The application goes to Public Works in writing and the checklist is substantial. It asks for photographs and detail sheets of what is being placed, a scale drawing of the proposed installation, a certificate of insurance approved by the City in form and amount, a signed maintenance agreement, an indemnification statement, permit fees, approval from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet or a historical or overlay district where one applies, and a bond if Public Works requires one.
There is one exclusion in those rules that is worth knowing about, because it may save you the whole process. The definition of an object expressly excludes items authorised by a permit issued for a building permit, a special event or a vendor permit. Read plainly, a container already covered by your building permit sits outside the objects regime. Whether Public Works treats a particular roll-off that way is a question for them rather than something to assume, and it is exactly the question to ask before you apply.
One more thing to raise with them. The maintenance agreement attached to the permit is written for street furniture, and it carries weekly cleaning and inspection duties plus a 48-hour response obligation. Those make sense for a bench or a planter and much less sense for a five-day container, so it is worth confirming how they apply.
Jeffersontown Public Works is at 10416 Watterson Trail and can be reached on 502-267-8333. Your account manager will help you work out whether your spot is right-of-way at all, and get you to the right desk before your delivery date.
A standard container takes none of the hazardous material: no liquids, paint, solvents, fuel or asbestos.
Kentucky handles disposal limits differently from most states. Rather than publishing one statewide list of banned materials, it controls what goes where through the class of landfill a load may enter, and construction and demolition debris is treated as its own class with its own landfill class. The practical effect for you is that the destination matters more than a list does, which is why we confirm where a load is going as part of the booking.
The City's own refusal list is the useful local guide, and it is strict. Tires, batteries, liquids, combustible and hazardous materials, appliances containing Freon, propane tanks and televisions over 32 inches are all turned away from bulk collection, along with rocks, dirt and construction debris. None of those belongs loose in a container either.
Collection runs on a pattern worth knowing if you are timing a cleanout: recycling comes every other week on the same day as trash, and yard waste is collected two days after both.
Borderline items are worth a call to your account manager before they go in the container.
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.
Container loads from Jeffersontown are taken to a permitted disposal facility serving the Louisville metro area. Kentucky routes construction and demolition debris to a landfill class of its own, so the destination for a renovation load is not the same as for household trash, and the charge at that facility is set there rather than by us.
The City's own collection is run under contract by a private company, and the City points residents to that company's customer line for service questions. That arrangement covers household carts, recycling and the one bulky item a week described above. It is not a route for construction debris, which the City refuses by name.
Because the receiving facility for this market is privately operated, we do not list it here as a place to visit. What matters for your quote is the per-ton charge it applies to your material, and that is something your account manager confirms with the facility before your container is delivered, so the disposal figure in your quote is the one on your invoice.
For household chemicals, paint, electronics and similar material, the metro area runs separate drop-off routes rather than taking them in a container. Your account manager can point you at the current option when you book.
Most Jeffersontown rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Give yourself longer if the container cannot sit on private ground, since the right-of-way application needs insurance and a signed agreement before it is granted.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
If your project will run for several weeks in a right-of-way, raise it at the quote stage. The insurance, the maintenance agreement and a possible bond are all much easier to plan for than to arrange mid-job.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges delivery across Jeffersontown and the surrounding Jefferson County area, from the subdivisions off Watterson Trail and Taylorsville Road through the Bluegrass commercial corridor, and we serve the wider Louisville metro on both sides of the Ohio River. Prime Dumpster also coordinates dumpster rentals in these Kentucky cities: Radcliff, 38 miles southwest · Frankfort, 45 miles east · Elizabethtown, 47 miles southwest · Georgetown, 66 miles east. Central Kentucky is a spread-out market for container pages, so those sit a fair way out. For service elsewhere in the state, visit our Kentucky state page.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, work out whether the objects permit applies to your spot, and give you a clear figure 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.
Jeffersontown rentals run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container on a five-day period. The weight of your material and the facility's charge for it move the final figure most. Your account manager will confirm the included tonnage and the overage rate before delivery.
For a Jeffersontown renovation, renting wins easily. The City's bulk service takes one item a week and refuses construction debris, so self-hauling means repeat trips to a landfill, a charge at each one, fuel, and a vehicle rated for the load. A single Jeffersontown container clears the whole job in one haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a bed frame, a dresser and boxes. On a furniture-heavy cleanout you will run out of room long before you approach the weight allowance.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil and asbestos. Jeffersontown also turns away tires, batteries, propane tanks, appliances containing Freon and televisions over 32 inches from its collection, and none of those belongs in a container either. Name them at booking.
The 10-yard container opens at $399 to $499, the lowest of our five sizes. Cheapest to rent is not always cheapest to fill, though. Load it with brick or concrete and the weight allowance arrives early, so dense material is best kept in a container of its own.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as the five-day period our ranges assume, because we price by the job rather than by the day. Tonnage moves a Jeffersontown invoice far more than the number of days does. Your account manager will give you the Jeffersontown tonnage allowance and the cost of each ton beyond it.
Typical Jeffersontown debris is fine: lumber, drywall, plaster, roofing, flooring, furniture, cardboard and cleanout material. Clean concrete, brick and block are accepted too, and a load kept to one material often costs less to dispose of. When something is borderline, ask your account manager before loading.
