At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Kenosha, Wisconsin, and the rest of Kenosha County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Older homes near downtown and the lakefront keep remodeling crews busy all year, and new construction along the I-94 corridor west of the city adds steady work for contractors. Both groups lean on roll-off containers to keep a job site clear.
What you pay comes down to the container size, the kind of debris you load, how long you keep the container, and the disposal fees at the landfill that takes your load. Below you'll find our price ranges, the City's rules for a container on a Kenosha street, and the materials Wisconsin keeps out of the ground.

Four things move the number on your quote in Kenosha, and they all start with the load itself.
Size is the first one. A larger container costs more, yet the right size saves you money in the end, because you avoid both overage charges and a second haul.
Weight is the second. Shingles, plaster, tile, and concrete are dense, so they use up the included tonnage long before the container looks full. Tires and large appliances are usually billed per piece, so tell us about them when you call.
Where the load goes is the third. Kenosha County has no county-run landfill, so every load rides out to a privately licensed disposal site and pays that site's posted rate by weight. Those rates are set at the gate, not by us.
City rules are the fourth. A container that sits on a Kenosha street needs a permit before delivery, and the City will turn that permit down if your own driveway or lot has room for the container. Planning for a driveway drop is almost always faster and cheaper. Your account manager can walk through both options with you.

Pick your size from two things: how much debris the job will make, and how heavy that debris is. We stock containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest container we carry. It suits a bathroom remodel, a single-room cleanout, or a small yard project. It is also the right pick for concrete, brick, and dirt, because dense material reaches the weight limit while the container is still half empty.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers mid-size jobs such as a garage cleanout, a flooring tear-out, or a small roof job. You gain room over the 10-yard without jumping to a much larger price.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Kenosha households end up renting. It handles a whole-home cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster fits large renovations, new home builds, and demolition work. Reach for it when a job makes a lot of mixed debris and you want one container instead of two.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It is built for commercial construction, big demolition jobs, and industrial cleanouts with a high volume of light material.
Still deciding? Tell your account manager what the job involves, and they will match the size to it.
A container on private property, like your own driveway or a job site you control, does not need a City permit in Kenosha. The rule changes the moment any part of the container sits on a City street or in the right-of-way.
For that, the City of Kenosha Department of Public Works issues a Street Opening and Occupying Permit, and the City's own street occupancy rule for dumpsters allows it only for containers used during construction or demolition. You apply on the Department's form and state how long you need the street. A certificate of insurance goes in with the application.
Kenosha also sets firm conditions on the placement itself. The container may take up no more than a third of the roadway between the curb lines, and only the part nearest the curb. At least four feet of any sidewalk has to stay open for people on foot. The container has to stay clear of fire hydrants and railway tracks, and it cannot sit in an active traffic lane or on an arterial street. It also has to be marked with flashers, barricades, or reflective tape, and those barricades cannot stick out past the container.
One rule catches people out: the City turns down a street permit whenever there is enough room for the container on the property being served. The company placing the container also has to be registered with Public Works for the year and carry the insurance the City sets for right-of-way work. Your account manager can confirm whether your spot counts as right-of-way and find the right City contact for you.
Most household and construction debris loads without any trouble. The limits come from Wisconsin's own disposal bans and from what the receiving landfill will take.
Wisconsin bans a set list of materials from every landfill and incinerator in the state, and the ban applies to homes and businesses alike. The list includes electronics, lead acid batteries, major appliances, waste tires, waste oil, used oil filters, and yard waste such as grass, leaves, garden debris, and brush under six inches thick. Cardboard, glass containers, newspaper, office paper, metal cans, and plastic bottles marked 1 and 2 are on it too, so they belong in recycling rather than your container.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, paint thinner, solvents, fuel, and asbestos stay out of a standard container as well. So do propane cylinders and anything medical.
The City's own curbside carts will not take construction or demolition debris at all, which is the main reason a remodel in Kenosha needs a roll-off container. If you are not sure about an item, ask your account manager before you load it.
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.
Kenosha County has no county-owned landfill and no public transfer station. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources list of approved disposal facilities shows three licensed disposal sites in the county, and all three are privately owned. Two of them are the recycling and disposal site at 19414 60th Street, out past Bristol on the west side of the county. The third takes utility waste only, not household or construction debris.
In practice, that means mixed loads from Kenosha are hauled west to the 60th Street site, while some loads from the north end of the city go up to the licensed landfill on Oakes Road in Racine. Both charge by weight, and both set their own rules for each material.
The useful part for you is simple: your rate reflects a real trip to a real scale, so an honest guess about weight at booking keeps your final bill close to your quote. Your account manager will confirm which site is taking your load and explain the fees that come with it before delivery.
Most Kenosha rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days out gives you time to clear the drop spot and sort out a street permit if you need one, and early bookings often cost less.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
Disposal sites in this part of Wisconsin keep weekday hours and close early on Saturday, so a container filled late in the weekend may not be hauled until 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.
A dumpster rental in Kenosha runs from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container, based on a five-day rental. Your debris type and the weight charged at the receiving landfill move the final number. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rate when you book.
For most jobs, renting is cheaper. Kenosha County has no public landfill, so self-hauling means repeated runs to a private site, a minimum charge each time, plus fuel and your own hours. One container usually clears a whole project in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves room for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of moving cartons. With bulky furniture you nearly always run out of space before you reach the weight limit.
Wisconsin keeps electronics, appliances, lead acid batteries, tires, waste oil, oil filters, and yard waste out of landfills statewide, so they stay out of your container. Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, asbestos, and propane cylinders are out as well. Mention appliances and tires when you book.
The 10-yard container has the lowest starting price, at $399 to $499. What you load still decides your final cost. Heavy material such as concrete or tile can pass the weight allowance in a small container and add overage charges, so keeping dense debris in its own load helps.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as a five-day rental, because containers are priced by the job rather than by the day. Weight drives your bill far more than the calendar does. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs.
Most home and construction debris is fine in Kenosha. That covers lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, carpet, and general cleanout junk. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too, and they often cost less when kept in a separate load. Check unusual items with your account manager first.
