At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Manteca, California, and the surrounding San Joaquin County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Manteca has grown fast along the 120 Bypass and out toward Union Road, so there's new home construction, warehouse and distribution building near the Airport Way corridor, and a long run of remodels in the older neighborhoods north of Yosemite Avenue.
Four things set your price: the size of the container, the weight and type of your debris, how long you keep it, and the disposal charge at the county transfer station. Below you'll find price ranges, when the city wants an encroachment permit, what California keeps out of the trash, and where your load actually goes.

Manteca is one of the easier cities to price, because the county publishes exactly what disposal costs.
Container size comes first, as always. A bigger container costs more up front but beats paying for a second haul.
Weight is the next piece, and here you can do the math yourself. The county transfer station charges $78.78 a ton with a $38.50 minimum, so every ton of stucco, tile, or roofing you load shows up in the final bill.
Material type matters in a second way. The transfer station takes small loads of concrete, soil, rock, and asphalt but turns away large ones, so a heavy demolition load may need a different plan. Tell us what you're tearing out and we'll sort the destination before delivery.
Covering the load is the last one, and it's strictly enforced here. An uncovered load pays double at the gate, so containers are never filled above the rails.

Pick for volume first, then check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest and the right call for dense material. A bathroom gut, a small patio removal, or a load of brick and broken concrete fits it, since heavy debris reaches the weight limit long before the walls fill.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers the middle jobs: a packed garage, old flooring, a small roof tear-off, or a yard overhaul. You gain room over the 10 without a big step up in cost.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the usual pick for a whole-house cleanout or a remodel across several rooms. It fits most Manteca driveways with room to work around it.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles additions, new home construction, and larger demolition. Choose it when the debris is bulky and mixed rather than heavy.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container. It suits warehouse and distribution-center cleanouts, commercial demolition, and sites that produce debris every day for weeks.
Not sure between two sizes? Describe the job to your account manager and they'll tell you which one works out cheaper once the scale ticket is in.
Keep the container on private property, like your driveway or a fenced job site, and Manteca generally won't ask for a permit. Most residential jobs here fit that description, since driveways in the newer subdivisions are wide and flat.
The rules change once the container sits in the street right-of-way. The city's own guidance is clear: work within the street right-of-way may require an encroachment permit, and the office to ask is the Public Works Department on 209-456-8580.
Manteca publishes the encroachment permit form, the insurance requirements, and an insurance sample through its development engineering pages, so you can see what you'll need before you apply. Proof of insurance is part of it, which is why the hauler and the property owner usually sort this out together.
If you're not sure where your property line stops and the right-of-way starts, that's worth settling early rather than on delivery day. Your account manager can help you reach the right city desk and work out whether your spot needs the permit at all.
Normal house and job-site debris is fine. The limits come from California law and from what the county transfer station will take off the truck.
California treats every mercury-containing device as hazardous waste once you throw it out, and the county is blunt about the consequence: it is illegal for anyone to put hazardous waste in the trash. That covers old thermostats, mercury thermometers, gauges, and mercury switches.
Electronics are banned from the trash statewide for the same reason. The county's list is long: televisions, computers, monitors, printers, fax machines, stereos, DVD players, phones, answering machines, electrical cords, and even holiday lights. Keep all of it out of the container.
The transfer station has its own refusals worth knowing before you load. It won't take large loads of concrete, soil, rock, gravel, or asphalt, logs or tree stumps, pressure-treated or creosote-coated wood, liquid waste, or drums bigger than five gallons. Small loads of clean rubble are fine.
Got something that doesn't fit any of those boxes? Ask your account manager before it goes in the container.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Manteca is unusual in having its disposal site inside the city. Nearly everything from a Manteca job is weighed in at the Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility and Transfer Station, 2323 East Lovelace Road, just east of Airport Way. San Joaquin County has owned and run it since 1977, and it handles close to 800 tons a day.
The gates are open every day of the week, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the county closes only on New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. The number is 209-982-5770. The 4 p.m. close is strictly enforced, and the county asks drivers to arrive 15 minutes early so there's time to unload.
From Lovelace, what can't be recovered is loaded onto county transfer trucks and hauled to the Foothill Sanitary Landfill, with each truck carrying up to 22 tons. That second leg is already built into the per-ton rate you pay at the scale.
Two practical notes. The site takes no cash, only cards and business checks. And loads must arrive covered, or they pay double. Your account manager will confirm the destination and the disposal charge before the truck is scheduled.
2323 E. Lovelace Road, Manteca, CA 95336
Run by San Joaquin County, open every day from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. with the closing time strictly enforced.
Most Manteca orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with the driver arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking a few days ahead gives you time to prepare the spot, and it often costs less.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
The transfer station's hours are the thing to plan around. It closes at 4 p.m. sharp every day, so a container finished late in the afternoon usually goes out the next morning instead.

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 container runs $699 to $899 for a standard five-day rental. The county charges by the ton at the transfer station on top of that, so the weight of your debris matters. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate at booking.
For anything past a pickup load, renting wins. The transfer station charges a minimum fee on every visit, takes no cash, and closes at 4 p.m., so self-hauling a remodel means repeated trips on the county's schedule. One container clears the job in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving room for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you run out of space long before you reach the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste of any kind, which in California includes anything containing mercury, and keep out electronics, which are banned from the trash statewide. Liquids, tree stumps, treated wood, and large loads of concrete or soil are refused locally. Flag anything unusual when you book.
The 10-yard container starts lowest at $399 to $499. Weight decides the rest of the bill, since disposal here is sold by the ton. Load it with tile, stucco, or concrete and you can pass the included tonnage quickly, so keeping dense debris in its own load is usually cheaper.
Three days normally costs the same as five, because a rental is 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 an extra ton costs before the container arrives.
Most home and job-site debris is allowed: lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, furniture, carpet, siding, cardboard, and general junk. Small amounts of clean concrete, brick, and soil are accepted too, though large loads of them need a different site. Check unusual items with your account manager first.
