At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Plainfield, Indiana, and the surrounding Hendricks County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Plainfield has grown steadily on the Indianapolis west side, and the work splits between remodels and basement finishes in the subdivisions off Perry Road and the heavy commercial and distribution construction along Ronald Reagan Parkway and the airport corridor.
Your cost depends on the container size, the weight of the debris, how long you keep it, and where the load ends up. Below are the price ranges, how placement works here, and what can and cannot go in.

Three things set a Plainfield quote, and the first one is worth more attention here than in most places.
Container size leads. Plainfield lots in the newer subdivisions have generous driveways, so footprint is rarely the constraint and ordering one size up is usually the cheaper mistake to make.
Debris weight comes next. Concrete, brick, mortar, tile, and the shingles off a full re-roof all run heavy, and the weight allowance is what you will exceed long before you run out of space.
The third is that Hendricks County gives you very little free help with a building job. The County's recycling district runs yard waste centers and recycling drop-off centers, but both are for households only and both refuse building materials outright. That means a remodel or a teardown has no low-cost county route and the whole volume rides in your container, so sizing it properly the first time saves a second haul.
Rental length matters least. Containers are priced by the job rather than by the day, so a five-day window and a three-day window usually cost the same.

Choose by volume, then check it against the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes across Hendricks County.
Dense material belongs in the 10-Yard Dumpster. A bathroom gut, a patio slab break-out, or a load of brick reaches its weight allowance long before it fills, so a larger container would only add cost.
The 15-Yard Dumpster suits a garage clear, one room of flooring, or a modest roof tear-off. It is the sensible step up when a 10 looks tight.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the one most Plainfield homeowners choose. It handles a whole-house cleanout, a basement finish plus a bathroom, or a standard re-roof.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits a full renovation, a new build on an infill lot, or a commercial fit-out producing a lot of mixed debris at once.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is for the largest work: distribution and warehouse fit-outs, commercial demolition, and high-volume construction where the material is bulky rather than heavy. Note that this size is 22 to 24 feet long, so it needs real room and is normally a private-site container rather than a street one.
If the job falls between two sizes, describe it to your account manager and they will pick the one that fits.
Private ground calls for no Town authorization. A container on your own driveway or on a private job site needs no Town authorization in Plainfield, and in most of the town the driveways are long enough that this is the straightforward option.
A public street or right-of-way is a different matter, and it needs the Town's authorization before the container arrives. Indiana towns differ a good deal in how they handle this. Some run a specific container permit, some fold it into a general right-of-way permit, and at least one Indiana city caps the length of a container allowed in the right-of-way at twenty-two feet, which would exclude a 40-yard container altogether. That last point is worth taking seriously on any street placement: if your container has to go in the road, ask us to confirm the maximum size the Town will allow before you choose a size.
Our approach is simple and it saves you the research. Tell your account manager the address and whether the drop spot is on private ground or in the street, and they will contact the Town, confirm what is required and what size is permitted, and come back to you before anything is scheduled.
For disposal questions rather than placement, the Hendricks County Recycling District is the local public authority and can be reached on 317-745-2000. They are helpful on what can be recycled, though as the next sections explain they cannot take building material.
Lumber, drywall, shingles, siding, flooring, cabinets, fencing, furniture and everyday household junk all go in without fuss. The limits come from Indiana law and from what the county sites accept.
Whole waste tires are kept out of Indiana landfills but for narrow exemptions, and spent lead-acid batteries may not be disposed of either. Open dumping and open burning are both illegal statewide, so burning construction scrap on site is not an option, and the county recycling district says part of its own purpose is discouraging exactly that.
Hazardous material never belongs in a container. Paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, antifreeze, pesticides, and pool chemicals all need separate handling, and so do liquids and sealed drums. The county runs collection days through the year for that material. Asbestos is licensed removal work and goes by a separate route entirely.
The county sites add their own refusals and they are strict. The recycling drop-off centers take clean, loose household recyclables only, and their published not-accepted list includes electronics, appliances, furniture, scrap metal, batteries, and food or yard waste. An attendant on duty can refuse any material. So separate out appliances and electronics before loading and tell us about them, because they are usually billed per piece rather than by weight.
Where an item has you guessing, check with your account manager before loading it.
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.
It is worth being blunt about the county facilities, because people assume they can help with a renovation and they cannot.
The Hendricks County Recycling District operates the Plainfield Yard Waste Recycling Center at 7020 South CR 875 East, and it is a genuinely useful public site, run by the district as a unit of local government. It takes brush, limbs, firewood, grass clippings, leaves, and other organic matter and turns it into mulch. It is open Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 7 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon, from April through November, and can be reached on 317-838-9332.
What it will not take is the point. The district's own restrictions say only organic material from Hendricks County homes may be left there, that businesses are asked to use other facilities for material they generate, and that tree stumps, root balls, sod, soil, building materials, and plastic bags cannot be deposited there at all. Customers also unload everything themselves. So do not plan to take a container, or a contractor's trailer, to that site.
Prices there rose on 1 April 2026 for the first time since 2006, and the district publishes guidelines rather than fixed prices, with a 96-gallon container or larger costing up to $8.00 and truck and trailer loads priced from the smaller sizes upward. The attendant on duty sets the actual charge.
Your container goes to a permitted commercial disposal facility instead. We confirm which one for your specific load rather than publishing a site we have not stood behind, and your account manager tells you the destination and the disposal portion of your bill before delivery.
7020 South CR 875 East, Indianapolis, IN 46168
Hendricks County households only and yard waste only. Building materials, stumps, sod and soil are refused, so a rental container cannot go here. Open Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., April through November.
Most Plainfield rentals can be scheduled inside one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A street placement needs longer, because the Town's authorization and any size limit have to be settled first.
Five things that make the delivery go without a hitch:
One seasonal note. The county yard waste centers close from December through March, so a winter landscaping or tree job has nowhere local to take green material and the whole volume has to go in a container. Plan the size accordingly.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges delivery throughout Plainfield and the surrounding Hendricks County communities, from the subdivisions along US 40 and Perry Road out toward Clayton, Danville, and the distribution corridor near the airport. Whether the job is one driveway or a large commercial site, we coordinate delivery, pickup, and disposal around your schedule.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, confirm what the Town allows at your drop spot, and give you a clear price 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.
Expect $399 to $499 at the 10-yard end and $699 to $899 at the 40-yard end on five days. Your final figure turns on the load weight and the commercial disposal charge. Your account manager sets the weight allowance and the overage rate before delivery.
For a building job, almost always the container. The county sites that are free or cheap refuse building materials outright, so self-hauling means repeated trips to a commercial facility and paying on each one, plus fuel and your own hours. A single container takes care of it in one trip.
Yes. A three-seat couch fills about a fifth of a 10-yard, leaving space for a bed frame and cartons. Furniture fills the space well before the weight allowance comes into play.
Indiana bars whole waste tires and spent lead-acid batteries from disposal, so those stay out. Keep hazardous material, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos out as well. Appliances and electronics need separate handling and are normally charged per piece rather than by weight.
Our opening price belongs to the 10-yard, which runs $399 to $499. Cheapest on paper is not always cheapest overall, though. Concrete, brick, and tile can push a small container past its weight allowance quickly, so keeping dense material in a dedicated load often saves more than sizing down.
You will usually pay the same for three days as for five, because pricing follows the job not the day count. The load itself shifts your bill far more than the day count. Ask your account manager how much weight is covered and what each further ton adds.
Most construction and household debris is allowed: lumber, drywall, shingles, siding, flooring, cabinets, fixtures, fencing, furniture, cardboard, and general cleanout material. Clean concrete and block are accepted too, and they cost less when kept apart from the rest. Flag anything out of the ordinary to your account manager before loading.
