At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Knob Hill, Colorado, and the wider Colorado Springs east side in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Knob Hill is one of the older neighborhoods in the city, built out largely in the post-war decades either side of East Platte Avenue, so most of the work here is renovation rather than new construction: kitchens, bathrooms, basements, detached garages and roofs that have reached the end of a second life.
Four things set your price: container size, the weight and type of the debris, how long the unit stays on site, and what the receiving facility charges. Below you will find those ranges, the City permit that names a construction dumpster by name, what Colorado keeps out of a household load, and how fast we can get a container to the block.

The Knob Hill housing stock shapes the quote more than the street address does.
Lot sizes here are modest and many homes were built with a single-width driveway and a detached garage off an alley. That often means a 10 or 15-yard container, not because the project is small but because that is what the drop spot can take. A shorter container also keeps the whole unit on your own concrete, which avoids the permit question entirely.
Weight decides the rest. Homes of this era produce plaster, lath, brick, concrete patio sections and layered asphalt roofing, and all of it is heavy for its volume. A 10-yard unit loaded with plaster and masonry can reach its weight allowance well before the top rail, and that is normal rather than a sign you picked wrong.
Mixed renovation debris behaves the opposite way. Framing lumber, cabinets, carpet, drywall and general cleanout material fill space quickly without much weight, so a 20 or 30-yard unit covers more work per dollar when the heavy material has already gone separately.
Splitting loads is the usual saving on a Knob Hill remodel. One small container for masonry and roofing, one larger one for everything else, instead of a single unit that runs over on weight.

Start with the heaviest thing on the job, then with the space you have to put a container. There are five container sizes for Colorado Springs work, from 10 up to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is both the heavy-material unit and the tight-driveway unit. Plaster, brick, concrete and tile belong here, and at twelve feet long it fits where a longer container will not.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a detached garage cleanout, a single-room floor tear-out, or a roof tear-off on a smaller house, and it still fits most single-width driveways.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the standard choice for a whole-house declutter or a kitchen and bathroom done together. It needs a little more run-in room, so check the approach first.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for a full gut, a basement finish or an addition, where the debris is mixed and mostly bulky.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest and is built for commercial work, structural demolition and large construction packages rather than a residential lot.
Tell your account manager both the debris list and the available drop space, and they will size it to whichever is the real constraint.
On private ground in Knob Hill there is nothing to obtain. A container on your driveway, your pad or a fenced job site does not appear on any City of Colorado Springs permit page, and in a neighborhood of single-width driveways that is worth planning around.
The street is where the paperwork starts, and the City's instrument is a Revocable Permit for the private use of the public right-of-way. It comes in three types, and a container is a surface occupation. The City's permit page lists what a surface permit can cover and names trash and construction dumpsters among them, with a separate line elsewhere on the same page listing dumpsters under temporary permits.
Read the name of the permit carefully, because it means what it says. The City states that the revocable designation means it may revoke the permit at any time for any reason. On a long project that is a real risk to plan around rather than a formality.
Four published conditions apply to a surface occupation. The spot must not interrupt vehicle or pedestrian flow, must not interfere with the public's normal use of the property, must not interfere with any lawfully existing structure, and must not occupy more than one fifth of the width of any paved sidewalk. That last one matters: a fifth of a typical walk is a few inches, so in practice the sidewalk is not a placement option and the permit is really about the street or the parking lane.
Separate application forms are published for a surface permit and a temporary surface permit. The City publishes no fee and no review time for either, so we will not quote one. The Land Use Review division takes these questions on 719-385-5905, and your account manager will help you work out whether your frontage needs a permit at all.
Ordinary renovation and household debris is fine. The limits come from Colorado's state list and from what the receiving facility will take.
The state list published by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is headed as a residential list, and it keeps five things out of disposal: lead-acid batteries, liquid wastes and wastes containing free liquids unless the facility is specifically approved for them, used oil, waste tires unless no other option exists, and waste electronic devices and computers. On a contractor load, the receiving facility's own acceptance rules sit on top of that list, so a commercial job has two sets of limits rather than one.
Beyond the state list, keep out paint, solvents, thinners, fuel, pool chemicals, pesticides and asbestos-containing material. Plaster-era homes in this part of Colorado Springs can also hide asbestos in old flooring adhesives and pipe wrap, which is a testing question before demolition rather than a loading question afterwards.
Tires and electronics have a published route out of a Knob Hill house. El Paso County runs a household hazardous waste facility that accepts them from residents, and that is where they should go rather than into a container.
When you are not sure, ask your account manager before the item goes over the rail. One prohibited item can hold up a whole load.
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.
Knob Hill is inside the City of Colorado Springs, and neither the City nor El Paso County operates a municipal landfill or transfer station for construction debris. The active disposal sites serving this market are run by private operators, so rather than send you to a competitor's gate we confirm the destination for your specific load when you book, along with the rate that applies to it.
What the County does run, and what residents here should know about, is the El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 3255 Akers Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80922, on 719-520-7878. It is operated by the County's Environmental Division. Published hours for household hazardous waste are Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., with occasional Saturday openings. Household recyclables and the reuse area are open on Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. to noon.
Be clear about what that site is for, because it is not a dumpster destination. It takes household hazardous waste, recyclables and reuse items only, proof of El Paso or Teller County residency is required at the drop-off, Saturday openings are marked no large loads, and an appointment is needed for more than fifty items or for any business waste. Bins close when they are full, and the County asks people to call before setting out in bad weather. Do not drive a container load there.
The City adopted a waste diversion action plan at the start of 2026, setting a community-wide diversion goal with separate targets for single-family, multi-family and commercial properties. It signals where the local rules are heading, which is one reason your account manager confirms the current destination and the current rate at the point of booking.
3255 Akers Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80922
County-run drop-off for household hazardous waste and recyclables from residents only. It takes no container loads.
Most Knob Hill orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Two or three days of notice gives you a choice of windows and time to clear the drop spot.
Five things that make the delivery go smoothly here:
Winter is worth planning for in Colorado Springs. Snow and ice change what a truck can safely do on a sloped driveway, so if the forecast is turning, book the pickup a little earlier rather than later.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves Knob Hill and the surrounding east-side Colorado Springs neighborhoods, from the East Platte Avenue and North Circle Drive corridors across to Palmer Park and down toward the Hancock Expressway. Delivery, pickup and disposal are arranged around your own hours on site.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container to your driveway and your debris, confirm where the load is going, and give 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.
Across a standard five-day rental a 10-yard sits at $399 to $499 and a 40-yard at $699 to $899. In a neighborhood of plaster and masonry the weight of the load usually matters more than the size, and your account manager sets the included tonnage and the overage rate with you when you book.
For most renovation work, renting wins. Self-hauling means repeat trips, fuel, a weigh-in each time, and your own hours, and heavy plaster or masonry fills a pickup bed fast. One container takes the whole job and sits on your driveway while you work through it.
Yes. Reckon on roughly a fifth of a 10-yard unit for a three-seat couch, with room left for a mattress, a dresser and boxes. Furniture is bulky and light, so space is the limit rather than weight.
The state list keeps lead-acid batteries, free liquids, used oil, waste tires and electronic devices out of a Colorado disposal site. On top of that, leave out paint, solvents, fuel, pool chemicals, pesticides and asbestos material. The County's household hazardous waste facility is the published route for those items.
The lowest Knob Hill price is the 10-yard at $399 to $499, and in this neighborhood it is often the right choice anyway because of the driveway widths. Just keep it for the heavy material. Loading plaster and brick into a larger container only moves the weight problem, it does not solve it.
A three-day rental generally costs what five days costs, because the price is built around the haul and the tonnage rather than the calendar. The weight of your debris moves the bill, not the number of nights. Your account manager will confirm the tonnage built into the Knob Hill quote.
Lumber, drywall, plaster, lath, roofing, flooring, cabinets, fencing, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout material are all fine. Clean concrete, brick and block are accepted too, and they usually cost less kept in their own load. If an item is borderline, raise it with your account manager before loading.
