At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals throughout New Berlin, Wisconsin, and the rest of Waukesha County, in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New Berlin's large mid-century subdivisions, its deep industrial park along National Avenue, and steady construction and remodeling work across the Milwaukee and Waukesha corridor all put containers on driveways and job sites here week in and week out.
Price turns on the size you choose, the weight of what you load, how long the container stays, and the disposal charge at the receiving end. Below we cover our ranges, the city's placement and hauling rules, Wisconsin's unusually wide disposal bans, and what the city recycling center will and won't take.

New Berlin has a couple of local wrinkles that other cities do not, and they are worth understanding before you book.
Size and weight work the way they do everywhere. The bigger container costs more to start and less to regret, and dense material such as concrete, tile or old roofing fills the weight allowance long before it fills the walls.
Sorting is where Wisconsin is different. The state bans a long list of ordinary materials from disposal, cardboard and paper included, so a mixed container cannot simply be tipped at a landfill. New Berlin reinforces that by letting a hauler refuse a load that has not been properly separated. Pulling cardboard, metal and clean paper out as you go keeps your load moving and your cost down.
Where the load goes matters too. Waukesha County names three landfills serving this area, at Muskego, Franklin and Menomonee Falls, and each sets its own charge by weight and material. The city's own recycling center, by contrast, refuses construction debris outright, so a project container is the only practical route for remodel waste.
City timing rules close things off. Haulers may not operate in New Berlin between 7 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., and they may not operate on Sundays at all. That removes a day from the week, so your account manager will set delivery and pickup around it.

Choose on volume, then check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes across New Berlin.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest and the right answer for heavy, dense loads. Concrete, brick, dirt and sod belong here, as do small bathroom remodels and single-room cleanouts.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is a good middle step. A two-car garage cleanout, a shed teardown or a modest shingle job fits without much wasted space.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most New Berlin homeowners pick. A whole-house cleanout or a kitchen and bath remodel fits, and it sits comfortably on the wide driveways common in the older subdivisions here.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles large renovations, additions and new residential builds. It is also the usual pick for an industrial park tenant improvement.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container and the one for commercial demolition, warehouse cleanouts and high-volume construction.
If you are between sizes, tell your account manager what the pile looks like and they will steer you right.
On private property, no permit is needed. A container on your driveway, parking lot or fenced site is your business, and that covers nearly every rental in New Berlin.
The street is a harder no. New Berlin bans anyone from encroaching on, obstructing or encumbering any street, alley, sidewalk, public grounds or land dedicated to public use. There is no over-the-counter street permit for a container. The one opening in the rule is for building materials placed in the street on conditions set by the City Engineer, who may require barricades or lights around them. The other listed exception is narrow: goods being loaded or unloaded may extend no more than three feet onto a sidewalk, and no longer than three hours.
A separate written permit applies if your project breaks the surface. Nobody may excavate in or under a street, alley, sidewalk or public grounds in New Berlin without one, and the permit brings insurance and a restoration guarantee with it.
Both routes go through the city's Engineering Division in Community Development. City Hall is at 3805 S Casper Drive and the Engineering Division answers on 262-786-8610, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Department of Public Works Streets office is at 16550 W National Avenue on 262-780-4609. The city posts its forms on its licenses and permits page. If you are not sure where your property line stops, your account manager can help you reach the right desk before delivery.
Wisconsin bans more from disposal than most states, and the list reaches well past the usual hazards.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources lists materials banned from disposal statewide. Corrugated cardboard is on it, flattened or not. So are newspapers, magazines, office paper, glass containers, aluminum and steel cans, and plastic containers marked one and two. Beyond paper and packaging, the ban covers electronics, lead-acid batteries, major appliances, used oil filters, waste oil, waste tires, and yard waste including grass, leaves, garden debris and brush under six inches across. Yard waste has its own route to an approved compost facility instead.
Hazardous waste never belongs in a container. Keep out paint, solvents, cleaners, fuel, liquids and asbestos.
Local refusals matter here too. The city recycling center will not take construction debris, lumber, landscape ties, concrete, bricks, windows, mirrors, carpeting, mattresses, furniture, electronics, tires, rocks, roots, stumps or hazardous materials. That is most of a remodel, which is exactly why a container makes sense for one.
Not sure where an item falls? Check with your account manager before it goes in the container.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Separated household material has a city-run home. The New Berlin Recycling Center sits at 3711 Casper Drive, just north of Casper Drive behind a rolling gate, and its automated line is 262-780-4606. The city's recycling center and trash page lists its hours: Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. plus Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the warmer months, dropping to Saturdays only from early December through late March. It accepts appliances, car batteries, used motor oil and antifreeze, yard waste, cans, flattened cardboard, glass bottles, paper, dirt and sod, and scrap metal. It does not accept construction debris, and the city suspended sales of contractor load permits back in 2020, so a visiting contractor has no city site to unload at.
Project debris goes to a licensed landfill instead. Waukesha County names three serving this area on its hauler and landfill page, at Muskego to the south, Franklin to the southeast and Menomonee Falls to the north. All three are a short run from New Berlin, and each charges by weight and material at the scale.
Recyclables have a fixed destination under city rules. Commingled recyclables and newspapers collected in New Berlin have to be delivered to the Waukesha County multi-material recycling facility, and all recyclables collected in the city must go to a site the county approves. Your account manager will confirm which facility is receiving your container and what the disposal charge looks like before the drop.

City drop-off, open Tuesdays and Thursdays plus Saturdays in the warmer months and Saturdays only in winter.
Most New Berlin rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. The Milwaukee metro is a short run for our yards, so availability here is usually good, and a couple of days of notice still gets you the better slot.
Five things that help:
Keep the city's hours in mind when you plan the week. New Berlin does not allow waste hauling between 7 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., and no hauling at all on Sundays, so a Saturday fill means a Monday pickup at the earliest.
Client ReviewsPrime Dumpster delivers across New Berlin and the surrounding Waukesha County communities, including Elm Grove, Big Bend, Vernon and Butler, from the National Avenue industrial corridor out to the residential streets off Moorland and Calhoun. Wherever the job sits, we line up delivery, pickup and disposal around your schedule and the city's hauling hours.

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.
New Berlin rentals range from $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, on a five-day period. The weight and mix of your debris and the landfill's charge at the scale both move the final figure. Your account manager will confirm tonnage and overage rates when you book.
For most jobs, renting wins. The city recycling center refuses construction debris, so self-hauling here means repeat trips to a landfill, paying each time, plus fuel and your own hours. One container takes the lot in a single haul. For one light pickup load, hauling it yourself can still be cheaper.
Yes, easily. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a mattress, a few chairs and some boxes. Furniture is bulky rather than dense, so you will run out of room long before you reach the weight allowance.
Keep out hazardous waste, paint, solvents, fuel, liquids and asbestos. Wisconsin also bans cardboard, paper, glass, cans, plastics one and two, electronics, appliances, tires, waste oil, lead-acid batteries and yard waste from disposal. Separate those first, and raise anything unusual with your account manager.
Our 10-yard starts lowest at $399 to $499. Cheapest to book is not always cheapest to finish. Fill a small container with concrete, brick or dirt and the weight allowance arrives early. Putting dense material in a load of its own usually ends up costing less overall.
A three-day rental usually prices the same as five, since the job rather than the calendar sets the rate. Weight affects your bill much more than days do. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before the container is delivered.
Nearly all job-site and household debris: lumber, drywall, siding, roofing, flooring, cabinets, carpet, furniture and general cleanout material. Clean concrete, brick and asphalt are fine as well, and they often cost less in a load of their own. Clear anything questionable with your account manager first.
