At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals throughout Maplewood, Minnesota, and the east metro in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Maplewood wraps around the eastern side of Saint Paul in a long arc, from the Gladstone and Hillside neighborhoods down to Battle Creek, and it mixes post-war single-family housing with a large retail and medical employment base, so container work here runs from basement and kitchen remodels to tenant construction along White Bear Avenue and Beam Avenue.
Four things set your number: container size, the material, how long you keep the container, and the per-ton charge where the load is processed. Maplewood also has a rule that decides whether you need one container or two, and it comes from the difference between construction debris and ordinary trash. That is covered below.

The east metro has a destination rule that shapes a Maplewood quote more than most local rules do.
Ramsey and Washington counties run waste designation, which means ordinary trash from the two counties has to be delivered to and processed at the counties' own recycling and energy center in Newport. The 2026 tipping fee there is $142 per ton for all acceptable waste, whether it goes to the center itself or to a participating transfer station, and the center adds separate charges for items it treats as unacceptable or difficult.
Here is the part that saves money. Designation reaches trash, and in Minnesota trash means mixed municipal solid waste, which Maplewood's own code says does not include construction debris. So a load of framing scrap, drywall, shingles and old cabinets is not designated to the Newport center at all and goes to a construction and demolition facility instead, usually at a different rate. A mixed cleanout that puts old furniture, bagged household material and demolition debris in the same container is treated as trash and goes to Newport at the designated rate.
That is why your account manager asks what is going in before quoting. On a bigger job, two containers sorted by material can beat one mixed container even after the second delivery.
Weight does the rest. Maplewood is a city of concrete block foundations and slab patios, and dense material reaches a container's weight allowance long before the walls fill.

Pick for the heaviest material and keep the material mix in mind. Prime Dumpster runs five sizes across Maplewood.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is where dense Maplewood material goes. A slab patio, a block wall, old ceramic tile or a one-layer shingle tear-off all reach a weight limit well before the container looks full.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage emptied to the slab, one bathroom taken back to studs, or a basement cleared properly. It fits a standard Maplewood driveway without blocking it.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size we set most often here. A kitchen plus a bath, or carpet and pad pulled from a whole rambler, fits comfortably.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for additions, second-story work and new residential construction, where packaging and offcuts eat volume long before weight becomes the limit.
The 40-Yard Dumpster handles the commercial end: retail and medical interiors along Beam Avenue and White Bear Avenue, structural demolition and industrial clearing. Prime Dumpster has nothing larger.
Not sure which one your job needs? Describe the rooms and the material to your account manager and they will size it, and tell you whether to split the load.
On your own driveway or inside a fenced work area, a container needs no City permit in Maplewood. That is the ordinary case.
The right-of-way rule here is unusually precise, and it names dumpsters directly. Placing a dumpster or a portable storage unit in the street portion of the right-of-way is not allowed. But the City expressly permits placing one within the boulevard or driveway portions of the right-of-way, as long as it does not obstruct pedestrian traffic along a sidewalk or trail and the boulevard is restored to its previous condition afterward. In extraordinary circumstances the city right-of-way engineer may make an exception for the street itself, and that pulls you into the City's obstruction permit and its fee.
That split is genuinely useful. On a Maplewood lot with a short driveway, the boulevard strip between the sidewalk and the curb is often the answer, and it is available without an exception. The condition worth taking seriously is the restoration: the boulevard has to go back the way it was, so plywood or planking under the rails is the sensible precaution rather than an optional extra.
There is one more thing to settle before a container is scheduled, and your account manager handles it. Maplewood licenses the collection of garbage, designated recyclables or other solid waste from any residential, multiple-family or commercial property in the city. The license runs for a maximum of a year and expires on 31 December, the city clerk takes the application, and the city manager endorses it on a finding that the applicant is responsible, has proper equipment and will not create a nuisance. The City also attaches a set of operating requirements to a licensee, including tandem axles or flotation tires to cut per-axle weight and service route maps that put customers on load-sensitive streets first. Your account manager confirms how the City treats a container-only operation at your address before anything is booked.
For the construction permit itself, Maplewood City Hall is at 1830 County Road B East. Your account manager will point you to the right desk.
Hazardous material stays out in every form: paint, solvents, fuel, used motor oil, pesticides, pool chemicals, part-used aerosols and batteries. Liquids are out, and so are pressurized cylinders, asbestos and sharps.
The receiving facility adds its own charges for items it treats as unacceptable or difficult to manage, which is the practical reason to keep those things separate rather than hoping they go through unnoticed.
Tires, appliances, electronics, lead-acid batteries and motor vehicle fluids and filters all sit outside Minnesota's ordinary trash stream, which means each one is handled, priced and routed on its own. Name them when you book and they get sent to the right place.
Yard waste, tree waste and ash are also treated as separate streams in Maplewood's own code, so brush and branches do not ride along in a mixed container.
Ask your account manager about anything unusual before it is loaded, especially on a job that mixes demolition material with household contents, because that mix is what moves the whole load into the designated trash stream.
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.
Ramsey and Washington counties have run their waste together since the 1980s and now work jointly through a shared recycling and energy operation. Their facility is the Recycling and Energy Center at 100 Red Rock Road, Newport, MN 55055, reachable on 651-768-6670, open 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 6 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and closed on Sunday.
The counties' designation ordinances require trash generated in the two counties to be delivered to and processed at that center, so an ordinary cleanout load from a Maplewood address has a destination fixed by ordinance rather than chosen for convenience. The center also states that it does not accept public entity waste from outside the two counties.
Construction debris is the exception, because Minnesota's definition of the designated stream leaves it out. A container of demolition and construction material is routed to a construction and demolition facility rather than to Newport, and your account manager will tell you which one and what it charges.
The counties own the Newport facility, but their own pages do not state who runs the floor, so we are not presenting it here as a publicly operated site. The address, phone and hours above are all published by the operation itself.
Your account manager confirms the routing for your particular load, the per-ton figure that will apply, and the weight ticket arrangements before the truck leaves your address.
Most Maplewood orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Spring is the season to plan around, because that is when posted street weight limits bite hardest on a heavy load.
Five habits that keep a Maplewood delivery on track:
That posted-limit point is the Minnesota one worth repeating. The limits are not a figure in the city code, they are whatever is on the signs and on the list filed with the city clerk, so a heavy load is a routing question as well as a weight question. Your account manager works it out with the driver.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves all of Maplewood, from Gladstone and Hillside through Parkside, Beaver Lake and Battle Creek, and across the retail and medical corridors along White Bear Avenue, Beam Avenue and County Road D. We handle the drop, the swap and the haul, and we sort out which facility your load belongs at.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will match the container to the material, tell you which facility your load is routed to, 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.
Maplewood pricing begins at $399 to $499 for a 10-yard and tops out at $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, over five days. The per-ton processing charge and the weight of your load then move the total, and the material mix decides which facility applies. Your account manager agrees the Maplewood tonnage allowance at the order.
For a Maplewood project, renting wins. Designation means trash has to go to the counties' Newport facility, which is a real drive from the east metro, and each self-haul trip pays a gate charge. One Maplewood container means one load, one haul and one ticket.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving room for a recliner, a bed frame and a run of cartons. Furniture fills space well before it threatens the weight allowance on that size.
No hazardous material, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, used oil, pesticides, pool chemicals or asbestos. Tires, appliances, electronics, lead-acid batteries and vehicle fluids sit outside Minnesota's ordinary trash stream, so each has to be named at booking and routed separately.
Maplewood's entry size is the 10-yard at $399 to $499. Whether it is cheapest overall depends on the mix, because a clean construction load and a mixed trash load go to different facilities at different rates. Separating them often beats one mixed container.
Three days and five days usually price the same in Maplewood, because the quote follows the project rather than the days. In Maplewood it is weight and material mix that shift the invoice. Pin the tonnage allowance and the overage rate down with your account manager and the Maplewood number holds.
Framing scrap, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, doors, windows, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout material are all fine in Maplewood. Clean concrete and block are accepted too and often cost less in a dedicated load. Anything doubtful goes to your account manager before the Maplewood container is loaded.
