At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Smyrna, Tennessee, and the rest of Rutherford County in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New housing off Sam Ridley Parkway, kitchen and garage cleanouts in the older streets near Lowry, and construction tied to the town's growth keep containers busy here for homeowners and contractors alike.
Your price turns on four things: the container size, the weight and type of debris, how long you keep it, and the disposal fees charged where your load is dumped. Below you'll find our price ranges, the right-of-way rules for Town streets, what the county station turns away, and how quickly we can get a container to you.

Four things move the number on a Smyrna quote, and the first one is simply how big a container you book.
Size sets the base price. Going one step up costs a little more at the start, and it still beats paying an overage charge or a second delivery because the first container ran out of room.
Weight is the other half of the math. Brick, mortar, tile, and roof shingles are dense, so a small load of them can weigh more than a full container of furniture and drywall. Tell us what you're loading and we'll match the size to it.
Where the load goes matters too. Most debris from Smyrna is weighed in at the Rutherford County Transfer Station on Landfill Road in Murfreesboro, and the county sets the charge per ton there, not us.
Some items carry their own charge. Mattresses are a good example: the county takes each mattress and each box spring at its brush and tire scale for a $25.00 recycling fee, paid by card when you drop it off. Mention bedding, tires, or appliances when you call, and your account manager will price them properly instead of letting them surprise you later.

Pick your size from the volume of debris first, then check the weight. Our containers run from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest one we carry. It suits a bathroom remodel, a single-room cleanout, or a yard project. It's also the right call for concrete, brick, and dirt, because dense material reaches the weight limit while the container still looks half empty.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers mid-size work: a packed garage, a flooring tear-out, or a small roof job. You get useful extra room without jumping to a much bigger container.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the one most Smyrna homeowners choose. It handles a full house cleanout or a remodel that touches several rooms, and it still fits on a normal driveway.
The 30-Yard Dumpster works for additions, new home builds, and teardowns that throw off a lot of mixed debris. Contractors on the subdivisions around town use this size often.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. It's built for commercial jobs, big demolition, and industrial cleanouts where the volume keeps climbing all week.
Still weighing two sizes against each other? Walk your account manager through the job and they'll pick for you.
A container that sits entirely on your own property, such as a driveway or a fenced job site, normally needs no permit in Smyrna. The rule changes the moment any part of it rests on a Town street, sidewalk, or right of way.
For that, the Town of Smyrna Public Works Department handles a Right-of-Way Use Application. You can find it with the department's other forms on the Town's Public Works applications page, listed as the ROW Use Application.
The form asks where in the right of way the work happens, what the work is, and the start and end dates and times. It also asks for a drawing that shows how traffic will be managed, plus a detour route for walkers and drivers if a sidewalk, lane, or road will be closed. The Town may hold a cash deposit for restoring the surface, and the Director of Public Works can raise that amount, so allow time for the paperwork before your delivery date.
Smyrna doesn't publish a set fee or turnaround for this application. Call Public Works at 615-459-9766 with questions about a specific spot. If you aren't sure where your property line stops and the Town's right of way begins, your account manager can help you reach the right person.
Framing, drywall, cabinets, flooring, shingles, furniture, and general cleanout junk are all fine. The limits come from Tennessee's disposal rules and from what the county station will take off the truck.
Tennessee keeps whole tires out of its landfills. Under the state's waste tire program, a whole, unshredded tire has to go to a permitted processor or a county tire collection site instead. Every Tennessee county runs at least one of those sites.
The Rutherford County Transfer Station adds its own list of refusals. Drums, tires, concrete slabs, asbestos, batteries, hazardous waste, sludge and liquids, and oversized material are all turned away there. Staff inspect loads by camera and ask the driver what's in the trailer, and a load with the wrong material in it goes back on the truck at the hauler's cost.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel can't go in a standard container anywhere. Neither can asbestos. Mattresses, tires, and large appliances need to be handled on their own.
One questionable item can hold up a whole load, so run anything unusual past your account manager before it goes in.
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.
Most dumpster loads from Smyrna are weighed and tipped at the Rutherford County Transfer Station, run by the Rutherford County Solid Waste Department at 6025 Landfill Road, Murfreesboro, TN 37130. The county's station page lists its hours as Monday through Friday, 4:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and Saturday, 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
The Town of Smyrna has no public drop-off of its own. Its own guidance sends residents with limbs and yard waste to the county site in Murfreesboro, and the Town's free curbside brush service covers homes only, never apartments or commercial property. Contractors are told to haul their own brush away, which is a large part of why a roll-off container is the usual answer for a remodel here.
The county charges by weight at the station and keeps a separate scale for brush, tires, and bedding. Your account manager will confirm which facility takes your load and go over the weight included in your rate before the container arrives.
6025 Landfill Road, Murfreesboro, TN 37130
Open Monday through Friday, 4:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and Saturday, 6:00 a.m. to noon.
Most Smyrna rentals can be set for one to two business days out, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Booking earlier gives you room to clear the drop spot and handle a right-of-way application if you need one, and early bookings often price better.
A few habits make delivery day easy:
Keep the county's Saturday hours in mind as well. The transfer station shuts at noon on Saturday and doesn't open on Sunday, so a container filled late in the weekend may wait until Monday to be hauled.

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 Smyrna runs $399 to $499, and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, both on a five-day rental. What you load and the per-ton charge at the Rutherford County Transfer Station move the final number. Your account manager confirms the included weight and the overage rate when you book.
Hauling it yourself costs more than it looks. You pay by weight at the county station on every trip, you burn fuel and a weekend, and a pickup truck holds about two yards. Once a job fills more than a couple of loads, one container usually comes out cheaper and takes one trip.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves space for chairs, a mattress, and a stack of boxes. With bulky household items you nearly always run out of room before you run out of weight allowance.
Keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos. The Rutherford County Transfer Station also refuses drums, tires, concrete slabs, batteries, sludge, and oversized material, so those need separate handling. Mattresses and large appliances carry their own charge and should be declared when you book.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499. Cheapest to book isn't always cheapest to empty, though. Load it with tile, brick, or wet dirt and the weight allowance runs out early, which adds an overage charge. Keeping heavy debris in its own container usually saves money.
Three days normally costs the same as the five-day rate, since we price by the job rather than by the day. Weight drives your bill far more than the calendar does. Ask your account manager what tonnage your rate includes and what each extra ton costs before the container is dropped off.
Nearly all home and construction debris is allowed in Smyrna: lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, cardboard, and household junk. Clean concrete and brick are fine too, and they cost less when kept in a load of their own. Check anything unusual with your account manager before loading it.
