At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Morristown, New Jersey, and the surrounding Morris County towns in sizes from 10 to 40 yards.

What Changes the Price in Morristown, NJ

Disposal costs in Morris County are among the most important parts of your price.

Size still comes first. Picking a container that fits the whole job keeps you from paying for a second haul.

Weight matters a lot here, because disposal is charged by the ton. The county's transfer stations charge $113.00 per ton for household trash and construction debris in 2026. That's $2.00 less per ton than last year. Plaster, tile, and shingles add tons fast.

Where the load goes is set by the county. Morris County directs its trash and building debris to its own two transfer stations, so every hauler pays the same public rate.

Placement matters too. A container near the street needs a Town permit, and the rules include cones, caution tape, and removal in bad weather.

What Size Dumpster Do I Need in Morristown, NJ?

Weigh how much debris you'll have against how heavy it is. Prime Dumpster offers containers from 10 to 40 yards.

The 10-Yard Dumpster fits a single bathroom, a small porch repair, or a closet and basement sort. It's also the right choice for concrete, brick, and stone, since heavy loads reach the weight cap long before the top. Its small footprint suits tight in-town driveways too.

The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a kitchen remodel, an attic cleanout, or old flooring from a few rooms. You get extra room without a big jump in price.

The 20-Yard Dumpster is a popular size in Morristown for whole-house cleanouts before a sale and remodels that span several rooms. It also fits most roof replacements on a typical home.

The 30-Yard Dumpster is sized for major renovations, additions, and interior demolition. Choose it when a job creates a large volume of mixed debris.

The 40-Yard Dumpster is our biggest option. Contractors use it for commercial projects, office cleanouts, and large tear-downs.

Unsure which to pick? Walk your account manager through the job, and they'll suggest the right size.

Do I Need a Permit for a Dumpster in Morristown, NJ?

A dumpster that stays on your own private property, like a driveway, is the simplest setup in Morristown. If the container needs to sit on a street or other public space, the Town wants to review it first.

That review runs through the Town of Morristown Bureau of Police. Its Dumpster / Container Permit costs $50.00 and lasts up to 30 days at the one location approved. The Traffic Safety Unit reviews each application and sends back a plan showing where the container goes and what safety steps are needed.

The permit comes with a few conditions. Yellow caution tape has to wrap the top of the container when no one is using it, and two cones go at the rear to warn drivers. The container must come out in bad weather. The company supplying it also needs a 24-hour emergency phone number.

For questions, call the Morristown police non-emergency line at 973-538-2200. Your account manager can help you work through the permit and plan the drop spot.

What Can You Not Put in a Dumpster in Morristown, NJ?

Most renovation and cleanout debris is fine. The limits come from New Jersey's disposal rules and the county's transfer station policies.

New Jersey keeps electronics out of the trash. TVs, computers, laptops, monitors, printers, and fax machines all have to be recycled. Whole tires can't be buried in a landfill either, so they're turned away as trash. The state and county also require recycling of cardboard, metal appliances, car batteries, used motor oil, and yard waste.

Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos can't go in a standard dumpster either.

Keep electronics and tires out of the container, and mention any appliances when you book. Your account manager can tell you how to handle anything you're not sure about.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.

Where Your Waste Goes

Morris County has flow control. That means trash and construction debris generated in the county must go to one of the two transfer stations run by the Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority, a public agency. From there, it's trucked to landfills the authority has under contract.

Most Morristown loads go to the Parsippany Transfer Station at 1100 Edwards Road, Parsippany, NJ 07054. It's open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Saturday, 7:30 to 11 a.m. It's closed Sundays. The station's line is 973-808-9651.

The other option is the Mount Olive Transfer Station at 168 Gold Mine Road, Flanders, NJ 07836. It's open weekdays, 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Saturdays, 7:30 to 11 a.m.

New Jersey also requires registered haulers and state decals on every truck and container that carries waste. Your account manager can confirm where your load is going and walk you through the fees before delivery.

How Fast Can You Get a Dumpster in Morristown, NJ?

We can usually deliver in Morristown within one to two business days, with drop-off in a 24 to 48 hour window. If the container needs a police permit, give the Traffic Safety Unit time to review it. Booking a few days early makes that easy.

A few tips before delivery day:

  • List the heavy stuff. Plaster, tile, and old shingles change the weight, so tell us before we quote.
  • Call in the morning. Early calls have the best shot at next-day delivery.
  • Mind the driveway. Many in-town lots are narrow, so measure the space and clear cars and branches.
  • Apply for the permit first. If the container won't fit on your property, send in the police permit before you pick a date.
  • Pull out electronics and tires. Set them aside before loading, since the transfer station turns them away.

Plan around the transfer station's short Saturday hours, too. Both stations close at 11 a.m. on Saturday and stay closed Sunday, so weekend pickups may wait until Monday.

Morristown, NJ Dumpster Questions

How much does a dumpster rental cost in Morristown, NJ?

In Morristown, a 10-yard dumpster runs $399 to $499, and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, based on a five-day rental. Your debris type and the county's per-ton disposal fees also shape the price. Your account manager will confirm the included weight and any overage rate when you book.

Is it cheaper to rent a dumpster or go to the dump?

For most jobs, a dumpster costs less. Morris County's transfer stations don't take cash or rental trucks, and every load pays by the ton. A single roll-off saves you the trips, the setup, and the hassle of hauling it yourself.

Will a couch fit in a 10-yard dumpster?

Yes. A three-seat couch fills about a fifth of a 10-yard dumpster, so there's room for chairs, a rug, and boxes of clutter. Furniture takes up space more than weight, so you'll likely fill the container before you hit its weight limit.

When renting a dumpster, what can you not put in it?

Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. New Jersey also bans TVs, computers, monitors, and printers from the trash, and whole tires can't be landfilled. Appliances and car batteries need to be recycled. Your account manager can help you plan for any of these.

What is the cheapest dumpster I can rent in Morristown, NJ?

The 10-yard dumpster is the lowest-priced size, at $399 to $499. Weight still drives your final bill, especially with the county's per-ton fees. Tile, plaster, and concrete can push a small container past its limit. A separate load for heavy debris often saves money.

How much is it to rent a dumpster for 3 days?

A three-day rental usually costs the same as five days, because we price by the job. Weight has a much bigger effect on the bill than time, since disposal here is charged by the ton. Ask your account manager what weight is included and the rate for extra tons.

What can you legally put in a dumpster?

Most household and construction debris is allowed in Morristown. That covers drywall, lumber, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and cleanout junk. Clean concrete and brick are fine too, though they're heavy. If you're not sure about an item, ask your account manager before it goes in.
