At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Marina, California, and the nearby Monterey Bay communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New homes on the former Fort Ord land, remodels in older neighborhoods, garage and yard cleanouts, and ongoing construction keep roll-off containers in steady demand in Marina.
The cost of your rental depends on the size of the container, the debris you're loading, how long you keep it, and the disposal fees at the regional landfill. Below, you'll find our price ranges, the local disposal fees, the City's encroachment permit, and the items California keeps out of the trash.

Here's what drives the price of a dumpster in Marina.
Container size comes first. A bigger dumpster costs more, and a good match up front saves you from overage fees or a second pickup.
What you load comes next. Stucco, tile, and dirt are heavy and use up the weight in your quote fast, while furniture and cardboard stay light.
Sorting makes a real difference here. The regional landfill's disposal fees list $85 per ton for mixed trash and construction debris, but only $2 per ton for clean concrete, brick, and rock. Clean drywall and clean lumber also cost less than a mixed load. A patio slab kept by itself costs far less to dispose of than the same slab mixed with other junk.
Local hauling rules matter as well. Marina provides trash service through an exclusive franchise, and the City's rate sheet for that franchise includes roll-off service. Your account manager will confirm how that rule applies at your address before you book.

Let the amount of debris and its weight guide your choice. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster covers a bathroom gut, one room of flooring, or a pile of old fencing and yard waste. It's also the best pick for concrete, brick, and rock, since heavy material hits the weight limit before the container fills up.
The 15-Yard Dumpster works well for a garage cleanout, a kitchen remodel, or a small roof.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is a common choice in Marina for whole-house cleanouts and remodels that touch several rooms.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits big renovations, new homes, and demolition jobs with mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest size, built for commercial work, major demolition, and large property cleanups.
Give your account manager the details of your project, and they'll suggest a size.
A dumpster on private property, like your driveway, usually doesn't need a City permit in Marina. Once it sits in the City right-of-way, such as a street or sidewalk, you'll need an encroachment permit.
The City's encroachment permit page lists parking any type of temporary container in the right-of-way as work that needs a permit. The applicant needs a completed application, proof of liability insurance naming the City as additionally insured, an active City of Marina business license, and traffic control plans when needed.
Permits can be requested and paid for online or at the Public Works Department, 209 Cypress Avenue. The City doesn't post a fee or review time on that page. Call the Marina Public Works Department at 831-884-1218 to ask before you choose a delivery date.
If you're not sure whether your spot is City right-of-way, your account manager can help you find the right contact.
Most remodeling and cleanout debris can go in your container. California's rules and the regional landfill set the limits.
California bans many household items from the trash. CalRecycle's list includes all batteries, fluorescent lamps and tubes, latex and oil-based paint, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil and filters, tires, asbestos, propane tanks, treated wood, and electronics. Treated wood is easy to miss, since old deck boards can look like plain lumber, so point it out when you book.
The regional landfill says it's illegal to throw electronic waste in the trash. TVs, computers, and microwaves go to its household hazardous waste area instead, at no charge.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster. Mattresses are accepted, and appliances with refrigerant carry a per-item fee.
Ask your account manager about any item you're unsure of before it goes in.
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.
Most dumpster loads from Marina go to ReGen Monterey, the Monterey Regional Waste Management District, at 14201 Del Monte Blvd., Salinas, CA 93908. The site is in unincorporated Monterey County, about two miles north of Marina, and Marina is one of the district's member cities.
The district's hours page lists scale hours of Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. It's closed on Sundays and major holidays.
The district also runs a recycling drop-off, a household hazardous waste area, and a reuse store on the same site. That makes it easy to split out electronics, paint, and reusable items before the dumpster goes to the scale. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and explain any fees before delivery.
14201 Del Monte Blvd., Salinas, CA 93908
Scales open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; closed Sundays.
Most Marina rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, and the container arrives in a 24 to 48 hour window. A few days of lead time helps if you need an encroachment permit.
These tips help your delivery go smoothly:
The ReGen Monterey scales close at 4 p.m. and stay closed on Sundays. A container filled on a Saturday afternoon may wait until Monday to be emptied.
Client Reviews

Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll help you choose a size, check the local hauling rules, and give you a clear price.
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.
Our Marina rentals run from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard dumpster up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard dumpster, based on five days. Your debris type and the regional landfill's per-ton fees also affect the total. Your account manager confirms tonnage and overage rates.
For small loads, a trip to ReGen Monterey can make sense, since it's close by. For a remodel or a large cleanout, a dumpster usually wins. Every trip carries a minimum charge, plus gas and time. A dumpster lets you load at home, and the hauler takes it all at once.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster. You'll have space left for chairs, a bed frame, and boxes. Furniture is bulky but light, so you're far more likely to run out of room than to hit the weight limit.
Leave out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. California also bans batteries, fluorescent tubes, tires, treated wood, propane tanks, and electronics from the trash. The regional landfill recycles TVs and computers for free at its household hazardous waste area.
The 10-yard dumpster is our lowest-priced option, at $399 to $499. The final bill still depends on what you load. Mixed debris costs much more to dispose of than clean concrete, so keeping heavy rubble in its own load can save you money.
A three-day rental usually costs the same as our five-day rental, because we price by the job. Weight has a bigger effect on the bill than the number of days. Ask your account manager how much weight is included and what extra tons cost.
Most household and construction debris is allowed, including untreated lumber, drywall, flooring, roofing, cabinets, furniture, and general junk. Clean concrete, brick, and rock are fine too and cost little to dispose of when kept separate. Your account manager can confirm any item you're unsure about.
