At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Midlothian, Texas, and the surrounding Ellis County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New subdivisions along the US-67 corridor, barn and acreage cleanups on the larger lots south of town, and steady commercial construction near the cement plants all keep containers working here for homeowners and contractors.
Four things set your price: the size you choose, the weight of what you load, how long you keep the container, and the haul to the nearest landfill that will take the material. Below are our price ranges, the one Midlothian rule that catches people out, what has to stay out of the load, and where your debris ends up.

Size and weight set the floor on a Midlothian quote, and the drive to the landfill sets the rest.
Pick the size from the job, not from the budget. A 20-yard costs more than a 15-yard up front, and still comes out cheaper than a second haul when the smaller container runs out of room halfway through.
Weight is where small containers get expensive. Brick, mortar, roof tile, and broken slab are dense enough to reach the included tonnage while the container still looks half full, so heavy material is usually better off in its own load.
Disposal and distance matter more here than in a big city. Every permitted landfill in Ellis County is privately run, and the nearest city-operated one sits about thirty miles north. The Grand Prairie Landfill charges commercial loads $40 per ton with a $10 minimum, and that mileage and tonnage both land in your quote.
Then there is the drop spot, which in Midlothian is not optional. The container has to go on private property. Your account manager will walk the placement with you when you book.

Two numbers decide it: how much debris, and how heavy. We rent five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest. It fits one bathroom, a small shed teardown, or a modest cleanout, and it is the right pick for concrete, brick, and tile, which hit the weight limit long before they fill it.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers mid-size work: one room taken back to the studs, a small roof tear-off, or flooring pulled from a few rooms.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the one most Midlothian homeowners end up with. A full house cleanout, a kitchen and bath together, or storm debris mixed with household items all fit.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for an addition, a gut renovation, or a new build, where a crew needs room to keep loading all week.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It suits commercial tear-outs, demolition, and high-volume cleanouts where bulk rather than weight is the limit.
Not sure between two? Describe the job to your account manager and they will pick the one that costs you less.
On private property, your driveway, a pad, or inside the fence line of a job site, no city permit applies to the container itself.
The street is a different answer, and Midlothian's is unusually firm. The city's traffic rules bar placing any obstruction upon, along, or across a public right-of-way or public easement anywhere in the city. There is no street-use permit, no encroachment agreement, and no exception process. The city's own list of permit applications runs from building and roofing to fences and excavation, and nothing on it covers occupying a street.
In practice that means every Midlothian job needs a workable spot on private ground. A driveway, a side yard with a firm approach, or a cleared pad on a lot under construction all work. A zero-lot-line home with no usable driveway needs a plan before delivery, not after.
If you want to confirm where your property line actually sits, the city's Engineering Department at 215 N. 8th Street takes those questions at 972-775-7197, and the Street Division handles roadway questions at 972-775-1083. Your account manager can also help you find the right contact and sort out placement before the truck is scheduled.
Most construction and cleanout debris is fine. Texas does not publish a statewide list of banned materials the way some states do, so the limits come from the landfill that receives your load and from the city's own definitions.
Hazardous waste, liquids, wet paint, solvents, fuel, pesticides, and asbestos stay out of any standard container. The city treats anything radioactive, corrosive, highly flammable, explosive, or medical as waste its crews will not touch, and the same logic applies to a rented container.
The receiving landfill adds its own refusals. Lead-acid batteries, used oil filters, liquids, pesticides, refrigerants, and whole tires are all turned away, and tires are only accepted when they have been quartered. Household hazardous waste such as leftover paint and old medication is not allowed either.
Soil is its own category. The city's rules treat dirt, rock, and sand used as fill as unacceptable waste, and the landfill takes clean soil only on weekdays and only by appointment. If your job produces a pile of dirt, say so when you book so it can be handled separately.
One Midlothian quirk worth knowing: clean concrete, dirt, rock, and old asphalt are not counted as construction debris under the city's definition. They are a separate material, and they usually cost less when they travel in their own load. Check anything unusual with your account manager first.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Midlothian sits in a county with no publicly run landfill. State records list three active landfills in Ellis County, all permitted to take every class of municipal waste, and all operated by private companies. The nearest city-run option is the Grand Prairie Landfill at 1102 MacArthur Blvd., Grand Prairie, TX 75050, which the City of Grand Prairie Solid Waste Department operates.
That site is open Monday through Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., closing early at 3 p.m. on the last Thursday of each month. Questions go to 972-237-8151.
What it means for your bill is distance plus weight. A heavy load travelling thirty miles costs more to move than the same volume going five, which is why sorting a load and picking the right size matter more here than they do closer to the city. Your account manager will confirm which facility your debris is headed to and what the disposal charge adds before delivery.
1102 MacArthur Blvd., Grand Prairie, TX 75050
City-run landfill, open Monday through Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Most Midlothian orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A day or two of lead time is worth having, mostly so the drop spot is sorted out first.
Five habits that keep a delivery smooth:
Watch the weekend, too. The receiving landfill closes on Sundays and shuts at 4:30 p.m. the rest of the week, so a container filled late on Saturday waits until Monday to be emptied.

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 runs $699 to $899, based on a five-day rental. Where you land in between depends on size, debris weight, and the haul to the landfill. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
Here the container wins sooner than usual, because the nearest city-run landfill is about thirty miles away. Each self-haul trip means fuel both ways, a charge at the gate, and most of a morning gone. One container takes the lot in a single haul.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves space for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of boxes. With bulky furniture you run out of room well before you reach the weight limit.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, wet paint, solvents, fuel, pesticides, and asbestos. The receiving landfill also refuses lead-acid batteries, used oil filters, refrigerants, and whole tires, and it wants clean soil booked separately. Mention tires, appliances, and dirt when you book.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499. Weight decides the rest of the bill. Fill a small container with brick or broken slab and you can pass the included tonnage quickly, so heavy rubble usually costs less in a load of its own.
Three days normally costs what five days costs, because the price is built around the job rather than the calendar. Weight moves your bill far more than time. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what an extra ton runs before delivery.
Most home and job-site debris is allowed, including lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, windows, doors, furniture, fencing, carpet, and general cleanout junk. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too and usually cost less in their own load. Ask your account manager about anything unusual.
