At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals in North Platte, Nebraska, and across Lincoln County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Farmstead and acreage clear-ups, rail yard and industrial maintenance, downtown building work and ordinary home construction all keep containers busy in a city that serves a very wide rural area.
Your cost here comes down to four things: the size you take, what the load weighs at the gate, how long the container stays, and whether the material is separated. North Platte prices separated hard material very differently from mixed debris, and that is the single biggest saving available locally.

Disposal here is priced by the ton and the City publishes its sanitation rates openly. Mixed waste crossing the city scale carries the highest per-ton charge on that list, which is why weight dominates the final bill on a heavy job.
Separated hard material is the exception, and the gap is large. Clean concrete and clean asphalt are each taken at roughly a fifth of the mixed waste rate per ton. On a driveway or foundation removal, keeping that material clean in its own container saves more than any other decision you make.
Load covering is priced too, and not gently. A load arriving at the city facility that is not properly covered and secured is charged at double the normal rate. Containers go out with the means to cover them, but it is worth knowing why it matters.
Distance adds a little. The city facility sits about seven miles south and west of town, so a job out on an acreage carries a longer round trip than one near downtown.

Pick on material weight first. Space is rarely the constraint on a Lincoln County property, so the limit you hit is almost always the scale rather than the walls of the container.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the right unit for concrete, brick, block and soil, and at twelve feet it will sit on any yard or drive in town.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a bathroom, a shed teardown or a small roof tear-off, with extra capacity for light material.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the usual choice for a multi-room remodel, a full house cleanout or an outbuilding clear-up.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles a major renovation, a new build or a commercial strip-out, where the volume is big and the material is mostly light.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest size we run, built for demolition and industrial clear-outs on properties with plenty of room.
Tell your account manager what the job will produce and whether the hard material can be kept separate, and they will size the job around the scale rate rather than the volume.
On private property, a driveway, a farmyard or a job site you control, North Platte asks nothing extra of you. Keep the container clear of the sidewalk and the travel lane and you are set.
The City publishes no container-specific street permit. What it does publish, through its Building Permits and Inspections section, is a right-of-way permit form alongside a public works permit, and a separate temporary permit covering temporary buildings, non-permanent structures and cargo containers. Either of those may be the right instrument depending on where your unit needs to stand, and the City decides which.
City offices are at 211 West 3rd Street and the main line is 308-535-6724. The Public Service Department, which runs sanitation and the city facility, can be reached on 308-535-6700.
Your Prime Dumpster account manager will find the right City contact for your address and check whether your drop spot counts as public ground before we set a delivery date.
Nearly all building and household debris loads without any trouble. The exclusions follow what the City facility will and will not take in a mixed load.
Household hazardous material has its own route in North Platte and must not go in your container: paint, primer, turpentine and varnish, fuels, pesticides and herbicides, solvent-based glue, auto fluids, mercury thermometers, rat poison, fluorescent bulbs and the rest of the chemical cupboard.
Lead-acid batteries, tires, appliances containing refrigerant and used oil are accepted at the city facility but only when they are separated out, and each carries its own charge. Appliances with refrigerant attract an extra fee per unit, and tires are priced individually, with another charge if the rim is still on. Pull these out of the container and tell your account manager about them.
Liquids of any kind and anything containing asbestos stay out entirely.
If you are unsure where an item belongs, ask your account manager before it goes in rather than risking a surcharge at the gate.
If the item you want to dispose of isn’t on this list, give us a call for more guidance or check out our guide of what you can throw in a dumpster.
*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
North Platte is unusual among cities this size in running its own disposal facility, which makes the route for your debris very clear.
The City's Sanitation Division operates the North Platte Transfer Station and composting facility at 3320 W North Lake Road, North Platte, NE 69101, about seven miles south and west of town, west of the Lake Maloney Inlet. It is open from seven in the morning until four in the afternoon, Monday through Saturday, and closed on Sundays and City-observed holidays. The number there is 308-535-6710.
Loads are weighed, tipped and then transferred on to a licensed landfill near Ogallala, so your material leaves Lincoln County before it is buried. The facility also takes separated yard waste for composting, separated asphalt, concrete and brick rubble, lead-acid batteries, appliances, tires and used oil in one-gallon plastic containers.
Every load arriving there must be properly covered and secured, and one that is not is charged double. That rule is the practical reason the driver tarps before pulling out, and the reason we ask you not to load above the rail.
Household hazardous material from a North Platte or Lincoln County address goes somewhere else entirely, to the City's collection facility on North Sycamore, which opens on the second and fourth Thursday of each month and is for residents of the city and county only. It is not a destination for a container.
Your account manager confirms the receiving facility and the disposal charge before delivery.
3320 W North Lake Road, North Platte, NE 69101
Operated by the City of North Platte Sanitation Division. Open 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday, closed Sundays and City holidays. Every load must arrive covered and secured.
Most North Platte orders are scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Rural addresses outside town can take a little longer, so give us the exact location when you call.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
The facility calendar is worth a thought as well. It closes at four and does not open on Sunday, so a container filled late on a Saturday waits until Monday to be emptied.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves North Platte itself and the surrounding Lincoln County communities, from the downtown grid and the neighborhoods south of the river out to the acreages toward Hershey, Maxwell and Lake Maloney. Long rural driveways and gravel approaches are normal on this run, so tell us the gate situation when you book.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container around the scale rate, set up separation if the job suits it, and give you a clear number 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.
A 10-yard container in North Platte runs $399 to $499 and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, both on a five-day rental. The city facility charges by the ton on top of that, so what the load weighs matters. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and overage rate before booking.
For most jobs, yes. The city facility is seven miles out of town, and a pickup holds a fraction of what a container does. Between fuel, the minimum charge on every visit and your own hours, a single container usually beats a day of hauling.
Yes. A three-seat couch uses about a fifth of a 10-yard unit, which still leaves room for a bed frame, a dresser and boxed clutter. Furniture is bulky rather than heavy, so you run out of room long before the weight allowance.
Household hazardous material stays out: paint, fuel, solvents, pesticides, auto fluids and fluorescent bulbs all go to the City's separate collection facility. Liquids and asbestos are out as well. Tires, lead-acid batteries and appliances with refrigerant must be separated and each carries its own charge.
The smallest unit we run, the 10-yard, begins at $399 to $499. In this city the bigger saving is usually separation rather than size, because clean concrete and asphalt are charged at a fraction of the mixed waste rate per ton. Your account manager can set the job up that way.
Three days normally costs the same as five, because containers are priced by the job rather than the day. The weight at the city scale affects your bill far more than the length of the rental. Confirm the weight allowance with your account manager at the booking stage.
Framing lumber, drywall, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, doors, furniture and carpet are all fine, as is general cleanout material. Clean concrete, asphalt and brick rubble are accepted too and are much cheaper kept separate. Anything that does not fit those categories should go past your account manager first.
