At Prime Dumpster, we arrange roll-off container delivery across New Braunfels, Texas, and the surrounding Comal and Guadalupe county communities in five sizes from 10 to 40 yards. This has been one of the fastest-growing cities in the country for a decade. Most of the work is new construction and subdivision build-out along Interstate 35, with renovation and roof replacement in the older German-settlement streets near the plaza.
New Braunfels is one of the few cities where the local rules genuinely change who you can book from, so we will be straight about it. The City runs its own solid waste division, it rents open-top roll-off containers itself in three sizes, and it treats commercial collection as its own service unless it decides otherwise. What that means for your job, along with sizing, weight and site access, is set out below.

Three things move a New Braunfels quote.
Weight is the first. Caliche, limestone, concrete, roof tile and layered shingle are all dense, so a 10 or a 15 loaded with them hits its tonnage allowance while the unit still looks part filled. Framing lumber, gypsum board, cabinetry and general cleanout material are light for their volume, so a 20 or a 30 usually gives better value per cubic yard on a build or a remodel.
Site access is the second, and in New Braunfels the City has written down exactly what good access looks like. Its own standards call for an access area at least 20 feet wide, 65 feet long and 16 feet high, with an outside turning radius of at least 45 feet, and they state that a collection vehicle should never have to reverse while turning, reverse more than 50 feet on the property, or back out into a public road. Those are the City's numbers for its own trucks, and they are a good checklist for ours. If a site fails them, the fix is a different placement or a smaller unit, and it is cheaper to find that out at the quote.
The third is the local rule set, covered in full below. In short, the City charges private haulers a permit for every truck, and the heavy-truck rate is more than ten times the light-truck rate. City vehicles are exempt from it. We carry that cost rather than passing it on as a line item.

Material decides first, access second. Newer New Braunfels subdivisions generally meet the access standards above; the older streets near the plaza often do not.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is built for the heavy material. Caliche, limestone, concrete, brick and soil belong here, and twelve feet of length fits a tight approach.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage clearing, one bathroom, or a small tear-off, and it keeps a heavy mixed load within reach of the weight allowance.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common choice for a kitchen and bathroom together, a full declutter, or a mid-size roof, and it handles furniture and cabinetry easily.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits a new build, an addition or a commercial fit-out, where the volume is high and the debris mostly light for its bulk.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is built for demolition and large construction packages, and it needs the full access envelope to place and clear safely.
Tell your account manager the material and the site layout, including the approach width and the turning room, and they will size it to whichever limit you reach first.
On private property, no City permit for the container itself. A unit on your own driveway, lot or fenced construction site is not something you apply for, and that is how nearly every New Braunfels delivery is set up.
The roadway is a different matter and the code is pointed about it. New Braunfels publishes no container-specific street permit, so what applies is the general rule against obstructing a public way. But the solid waste chapter adds something sharper that is aimed at haulers rather than customers: a hauler's use of city property, streets, alleys, roads or other rights-of-way without a permit creates a presumption of debt, which the City may enforce by pleading the value of the service and by recording liens. That is our exposure rather than yours, and it is one more reason we settle the placement question before a truck rolls.
The collection rule is the part that genuinely affects who you can book from, and we would rather set it out plainly than have you discover it later. The City's own solid waste and recycling division is the exclusive provider of commercial garbage collection inside the city. Private service is contemplated, but only where the solid waste manager has determined that the service is not available or furnished by the City, or that it is not in the City's best interest to provide it. On top of that, a private hauler needs an approved service agreement with the City, and a separate permit for each truck it operates, with insurance of half a million dollars on both general and vehicle liability. The permit is not transferable and the City may revoke it at any time in the public interest without a refund.
Two further facts belong on the table. The City will not collect construction or demolition material in its own containers, and says so in its code: that material is the owner's or contractor's responsibility, at their expense. And the City itself rents open-top roll-off containers in 20, 30 and 40 cubic yards through an agreement with its solid waste division. So you have a real choice here, and you are entitled to compare both properly.
What we do is simple. Your account manager confirms the City's current position for your address and material before anything is scheduled, and tells you plainly if the answer changes the plan. City Hall is at 550 Landa St. and the City line is 830-221-4000.
Ordinary construction, roofing and cleanout debris loads without trouble. The limits come from Texas rules and from the receiving facility.
Liquids stay out, along with paint, solvents, thinners, fuel, motor oil, antifreeze, pool chemicals and pesticides. Appliances holding refrigerant, fluorescent tubes, batteries, televisions and computer equipment each need their own route. Tires are kept separate.
Asbestos needs testing and licensed handling rather than a judgement made while loading. In the older streets around the plaza and in the mid-century housing it is a realistic possibility in floor tile adhesive, pipe lagging and textured ceilings.
One Texas duty travels with every load and the City flags it in its own code: vehicles designed to haul roll-off containers are regulated by the state tarp law. That is a requirement on us rather than on you, and we meet it as standard, but it is the reason a load has to be level enough to cover properly. Overfilling a container above the rails is the one loading habit that genuinely causes a delay here.
The City also bars rocks and construction waste from its own issued containers, so if your project is producing both household and building material, they belong in separate places from the start. Your account manager will set that up with you before delivery.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
New Braunfels has one public facility worth naming, and it is important to be clear about what it is and is not. The City Recycle Center at 488 S. Castell Avenue is the City's own site, it is free, and attendants unload for you while you stay in your vehicle. Its hours, effective from May 2026, are Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturday from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, with Monday and Sunday closed. The City line is 830-221-4000.
What it is not is a destination for a roll-off container. The City requires proof of New Braunfels residency, by valid ID or a utility bill with a city address, before it will accept recyclables, and the site is set up for carloads rather than for a truck. Nobody should route a loaded container there. For non-residents the City points instead to the Comal County Recycling and Chipping Center on Resource Drive, and it notes that other providers operate these centers, so hours and accepted items are worth checking by phone first.
Your container itself goes to a permitted disposal or processing facility. Texas does not publish who operates the sites on its state list, so no receiving facility is named by address here. Your account manager confirms the destination for your load, what it will accept, and the rate that applies, before delivery.
That call also covers the City's own container service, so you see both options side by side. It takes a few minutes and it avoids ordering a unit the site cannot take.
488 S. Castell Avenue, New Braunfels, TX 78130
Open Tuesday to Friday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturday 8:00 am to noon, for New Braunfels residents with proof of residency.
Most New Braunfels orders can be scheduled inside one to two business days, with the container arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Site access is the usual limiting factor rather than the haul.
Five things that keep a New Braunfels delivery on schedule:
Worth planning around at the back end: the City's recycle center shuts at noon on Saturday and is closed Monday and Sunday, so if you want to divert recyclables out of the container, that happens midweek rather than at the weekend.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves the whole of New Braunfels, from the historic plaza and Gruene across to Oak Run, Mission Valley, Veramendi and the Interstate 35 corridor on both the Comal and Guadalupe county sides, along with the surrounding communities. We also cover projects out toward San Antonio and Canyon Lake. Delivery, swaps and the final haul are planned around your site access and the days your crew is working.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will test the site against the City's access standards, confirm the City's current position on private collection for your address, size the container to the material, and quote it on the call.
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 Braunfels pricing is $399 to $499 for a 10-yard and $699 to $899 for a 40-yard across five days. Weight moves the final figure most, and site access often decides which unit is even possible. Your account manager prices the New Braunfels job on the call and will compare it with the City's own service.
Beyond a couple of loads the container is the cheaper route. There is no public site in New Braunfels that takes a construction load, and the City's recycle center is residents-only and set up for carloads. A container is filled once on your own site and hauled once.
Yes, comfortably. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard unit, with a mattress, a dresser and boxes fitting around it. On a cleanout here the container fills up long before the weight allowance does.
Keep liquids out, and with them paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, antifreeze, pool chemicals and pesticides. Refrigerant appliances, fluorescent tubes, batteries, televisions and computer equipment need separate routes. Asbestos needs licensed handling, tires are kept apart, and loads must sit level enough to cover.
The 10-yard at $399 to $499 is the lowest price, and on a tight older lot near the plaza it may be the only unit that fits the access standards. It is only the cheapest answer when the load matches the unit. Filled with caliche or concrete it reaches the weight allowance fast.
A three-day rental and a five-day rental usually cost the same, because the price follows the haul and the tonnage rather than the calendar. The total moves on tonnage rather than on days. Your account manager will confirm the tonnage included and the charge for each ton over it.
Lumber, gypsum board, shingles, flooring, cabinets, doors, decking, fencing, siding, furniture, cardboard and general cleanout debris are all accepted. Clean concrete, limestone and brick are fine and travel best on their own. Bring anything unusual to your account manager before it goes in the container.
