At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Mukilteo, Washington, and the rest of southwest Snohomish County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Harbour Pointe remodels, Old Town renovations on tight waterfront lots, and steady construction along the Paine Field edge of town all put roll-off containers to work for homeowners and contractors here.
Your final price turns on the size you order, the weight and type of the debris, how long the container stays, and the per-ton rates at the county transfer station. Below you will find our price ranges, what Mukilteo expects before a container touches a public street, and what the county will refuse at the gate.

Mukilteo has a few cost drivers that do not show up in a national price list.
Container size leads. Going one size up costs less than paying for a second haul, and on a hillside lot the larger container can be harder to place, so size and placement get decided together.
Debris weight comes next. Wet Puget Sound demolition debris, old cedar shake, plaster, and tile all weigh more than people expect, and the county charges by the ton once a load passes 360 pounds.
Disposal rates are set by the county, not by us. The Snohomish County Solid Waste Division charges a $30 minimum for a load of 360 pounds or less, including tax, and $160 per ton plus tax above that.
Local rules add the last piece. Mukilteo requires a right-of-way permit for any private use of a public street, and the city code names waste dumpsters in the permit category that covers longer placements. Your account manager can talk through how these four factors land on your specific job.

Pick by volume first, then check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes here, from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is for dense loads and small footprints. Broken patio concrete, brick, soil, and a single bathroom tear-out all suit it, and it fits on a short driveway where a longer container would not.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a garage clearing, a deck removal, or a flooring job. It gives you more room than the smallest size without stepping up in price very far.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common choice in Mukilteo for kitchen and bath remodels that run together, basement work, or a full household cleanout before a move.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for high-volume jobs: additions, new construction, a whole roof, or a mixed demolition load that would overflow a 20-yard.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. Commercial tenant improvements, light industrial cleanouts, and multi-week demolition work are what it was built for.
If two sizes both look plausible, tell your account manager what the job involves and they will narrow it down.
On private property, such as your own driveway or a fenced job site, Mukilteo does not require a permit for the container itself. Check your building permit conditions, and keep the container clear of any marked fire lane, because the city code bars placing a dumpster or storage container in one.
A public street, planting strip, sidewalk, or alley is a different matter. Mukilteo's code says plainly that no person may use any public right-of-way without a right-of-way permit from the city, and the permit category covering longer placements lists waste dumpsters among its uses. The Director of Public Works reviews each application, and the code allows conditions to be added to protect traffic and pedestrians.
Apply through the City of Mukilteo Public Works and Engineering office at 11930 Cyrus Way. You can reach Public Works at 425-263-8170, and the Permit Center at 425-263-8000. City Hall is open Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed for lunch from noon to 1 p.m., and closed Friday.
Build the review time into your schedule. A complete application is acted on within ten working days, so a street placement is not a same-week decision. The city also requires warning lights, signs, and barricades around anything that obstructs traffic or pedestrians, which is a real cost to plan for. Your account manager will help you work out whether your spot counts as right-of-way and who to call at the city.
Framing, drywall, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, furniture, and ordinary cleanout junk are all fine in a Mukilteo container. The limits come from Washington's rules on dangerous waste and from what the county will take at the scale.
Washington treats dangerous waste and moderate risk waste as separate streams from ordinary garbage, and the county transfer stations will not accept either one. That keeps paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane cylinders, and any free liquid out of your container. Asbestos is handled under its own rules and never rides in a mixed load.
Yard waste and clean wood debris are also turned away at the three county transfer stations, which send those materials elsewhere. If your job mixes brush or clean cedar with construction debris, say so when you book so the load is routed correctly.
The county also refuses rodent-infested loads outright, and its recycling area serves residential customers only. Tires, mattresses, and appliances with cooling units need to be declared when you order rather than slipped into the container.
Anything you are unsure about is worth a quick question to your account manager before it goes in.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Mukilteo's code requires that solid waste generated inside the city be disposed of through the Snohomish County system, and it gives the county the authority to designate the disposal sites. Nothing may be diverted from those sites without county approval, so the destination is set by rule rather than by preference.
In practice that means the Airport Road Recycling and Transfer Station, operated by Snohomish County at 10700 Minuteman Drive, Everett, WA 98204. It is open seven days a week, 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and closed on New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Loads have to be on site at least 30 minutes before closing.
One county rule shapes the haul schedule more than anything else. Open-top containers that have to be lifted off the chassis are not allowed at Airport Road before 3:30 p.m. on weekdays, or before 1 p.m. on weekends, and the county's North County and Southwest stations do not take them at any hour. That is why pickup from a Mukilteo job often lands late in the day. Your account manager will confirm the receiving site and the timing before your container is scheduled.
10700 Minuteman Drive, Everett, WA 98204
Open seven days a week, 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with loads on site 30 minutes before closing.
Most Mukilteo orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A street placement is the exception, since the city has up to ten working days to act on the permit, so start that conversation early.
Here is how to keep delivery day simple:
Keep the transfer station calendar in mind too. It is closed on four holidays a year, and the afternoon rule for open-top containers means a Friday pickup may finish on Monday.

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 in Mukilteo runs $399 to $499, and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, both on a five-day rental. The weight of your load and the county's per-ton rate move the final figure. Your account manager confirms included tonnage and overage rates when you book.
Hauling it yourself only pays for one small load. Every trip carries a minimum charge at the scale, you unload the vehicle by hand, and open-top trailers face time restrictions at the county station. Past two or three loads, a single container almost always comes out cheaper.
Yes. A three-seat couch uses roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which still leaves space for a mattress, chairs, and a stack of boxes. Furniture runs out of room long before it runs out of weight allowance.
Keep out dangerous waste and moderate risk waste: paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane cylinders, and anything with free liquid. Asbestos stays out as well. Yard waste and clean wood debris are turned away at the county transfer stations, so keep those separate.
The 10-yard container has the lowest starting price, at $399 to $499. The cheapest rental is not always the cheapest job, though. Load tile or concrete into a small container and the weight allowance goes first. Keeping dense material in its own load usually saves money overall.
Three days normally costs what the standard five-day rental costs, because the price is built around the job rather than the calendar. Weight drives your bill far more than the number of days. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton runs.
Nearly all home and job site debris is allowed in Mukilteo: lumber, drywall, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, doors, carpet, furniture, and general household junk. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too, and they cost less when kept as a separate load. Ask your account manager about anything unusual.
