At Prime Dumpster, we arrange delivery of roll-off containers from 10 to 40 yards across Solon, Ohio and the southeast corner of Cuyahoga County. The large lots off Aurora Road and SOM Center Road carry houses now on their second or third renovation, the industrial parkways along Cochran and Solon Road generate steady commercial clearouts, and basement finishing is close to a standing local trade here.
Solon is also unusually clear about what it expects of you, and that is genuinely helpful. The city collects about a wheelbarrow of construction debris from a homeowner and no more, and it puts in writing that the rest is yours to arrange. Knowing that before a permit is pulled saves a difficult conversation with a client halfway through the job.

| Size | Average Price Range | Approximate Dimensions | Common Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10-Yard Dumpster | $399–$499 | 12' L × 8' W × 3.5' H | Concrete, brick, and heavy debris; small cleanouts; single-room remodels |
| 15-Yard Dumpster | $449–$569 | 16' L × 7.5' W × 4–5' H | Garage cleanouts, kitchen and bathroom remodels, small roof tear-offs |
| 20-Yard Dumpster | $499–$649 | 22' L × 7.5' W × 4.5' H | Whole-home cleanouts, multi-room renovations, flooring removal, roofing |
| 30-Yard Dumpster | $599–$799 | 22' L × 8' W × 6' H | Major renovations, new residential construction, large commercial projects |
| 40-Yard Dumpster | $699–$899 | 22–24' L × 8' W × 8' H | Commercial demolition, industrial cleanouts, large-scale construction |
Size sets the opening figure and the weight of the load moves it furthest. Concrete, block, brick and ceramic tile reach a container's weight allowance while the walls still look half empty, so a Solon basement or driveway job often belongs in a 10-yard rather than a 20.
The second factor here is how much of the job the city will absorb, and the answer is very little. Solon's Service Department will take roughly two cubic feet of construction debris generated by a homeowner, which the city describes as one standard wheelbarrow. Lumber has to be cut into four-foot lengths and bundled, bundles have to stay under fifty pounds, loose debris has to be contained and carries the same weight limit, and every nail has to be removed or bent over. That is a genuinely useful service for the last few offcuts. It is not a renovation plan, and the city does not pretend otherwise.
How long you keep it matters least of the three. A Solon container carries one job price, so a short rental and a five-day rental usually match, and extra days are charged at the end rather than built into the quote.

Let the material pick the size. Solon's generous lots mean access is rarely the constraint, so this decision really is about what is in the pile.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the dense-material container. A clean load of concrete, block, brick or tile hits its weight ceiling long before it fills, and it is the right call for a driveway, a patio or a basement slab.
The 15-Yard Dumpster is sized for a garage clear-down, one bathroom, a light roof or a deck takedown.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size Solon homes book most. Basement finishing, a whole-house cleanout, a flooring strip and multi-room work all fit, with walls low enough to load over by hand.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for new construction, a large addition or a serious demolition, where framing lumber, drywall and roof decking fill volume faster than they build weight.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the commercial size, taking demolition, industrial clearing and large-scale construction in the Solon business parks. It is the largest offered and it needs a straight approach, a level drop point and clear height.
A container on private property, in a driveway or inside a job-site boundary, is the normal arrangement in Solon and that is how almost every job here is served.
The honest position on the written rules is this. Solon's Codified Ordinances are held by an outside publisher that does not serve automated requests, and the only part the city reproduces on its own website is a table of contents for the zoning code. So we take anything that turns on the code straight to the city instead of inventing an answer, and we say so plainly. The Building Department answers those questions on 440-349-6737.
One street rule is on record and worth knowing, because it is the only door of its kind in the Solon streets chapter. The city's permit there covers parading or blocking off a street area, has to be filed not less than five days ahead, and requires the application to designate the area being blocked off. That is a realistic route where a job genuinely closes part of a street, and it is a five-day lead time rather than a same-week one. For anything short of closing a street area, the placement is agreed with the city rather than permitted.
What the city does publish directly is more useful than it sounds, and it points one way. On its own construction debris page, Solon states that its permit application makes disposal of all debris generated from a permitted project the responsibility of the contractor or homeowner, and it goes on to suggest contacting a waste removal service and obtaining a dumpster. A city that tells you in writing to bring in a container is not a city that makes it difficult to place one.
One duty is worth raising before a commercial job. Solon requires a contractor to hold a certificate of registration from the Chief Building Official before performing work in the city, renewed each calendar year, with general liability insurance naming the City of Solon as an additional insured, a sealed bond form and trade licenses from the relevant state board. Whether delivering a container counts as performing work is a question for the city, and the trades it names are building trades. Your account manager raises it with the Building Department where a job makes it matter.
One practical point from the city's own collection rules. A container at the street line is treated as an obstruction risk: the city wants three feet of clearance from parked cars, mailboxes and utility poles, and may remove a receptacle left there more than three days after collection.
Ordinary construction, demolition and household debris is acceptable in a Solon container. The firm limits come from Ohio rules and from the receiving site.
Hazardous material stays out of any container: fuels, solvents, wet paint, pesticides, pool chemicals, pressurized cylinders and anything carrying PCBs. Solon runs its own household hazardous waste route and a separate paint route, and those are the right destinations for them.
Asbestos is not something a standard container can carry. Solon's older housing, and the industrial buildings along the parkways, can both turn up pipe lagging, resilient floor tile and textured ceiling coating. A suspect material needs testing rather than loading.
Tires, mattresses, electronics, medical waste and carpet are each handled separately in Solon, and the city publishes its own route for every one of them. Declare any of them when you book and the cost is agreed in advance.
Liquids are out, including standing rainwater in the bottom of an old tank or drum. Water adds weight and nothing else.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Cuyahoga County is a market where we have to be careful about what we name, and the reason is worth explaining rather than hiding.
The county does not own a construction and demolition landfill, and the transfer stations that handle this kind of material in the county are run by private hauling companies. We do not list a competitor's site as a destination, and we do not publish an address or a phone number for a facility we have not confirmed with the public authority behind it. So your account manager confirms the destination for your specific load at the time of booking, tells you what it charges by weight, and tells you whether separating part of the load changes the number.
At county level the authority that matters is the Cuyahoga County Board of Health, and its published scope is worth knowing because it is narrower than people assume. The Board licenses and inspects solid waste facilities. It does not license, register or permit haulers. So the licensing question in this county is about where a load lands, not about who carries it.
What we can point you at directly is the city's own yard. The Solon Municipal Service Center on Cochran Road is open Monday to Friday, mornings and early afternoons, with the yard closed over the middle hour of the day. Residential drop-off runs year-round, and the city makes mulch and compost available to Solon residents, loaded by staff on set days or self-loaded free during opening hours. The Service Department also operates the city's own compost facility as part of its recycling work and names its own solid waste and compost manager, which is why we are comfortable listing it. It is a residents-only, self-haul site, not somewhere a rented container is tipped, and it is best thought of as the answer for the last few awkward items after the container has gone.
6600 Cochran Road, Solon, OH 44139
The City of Solon Service Department yard. Open Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., with the yard closed between 11 and 12. Residents-only self-haul drop-off, year round, plus mulch and compost for Solon residents. Not a destination for a rented container.
Most Solon containers can be scheduled within one to two business days. Private-property placements are the norm here and Solon's lot sizes make access straightforward, so the schedule usually depends on the truck rather than on the site.
What makes the booking go quickly:
A northeast Ohio winter note. Cover a part-filled container between shifts, because snow and rain soak into drywall and insulation and come back as tonnage on your bill. In deep winter, make sure the approach is cleared before the truck is due; a frozen rutted driveway is the commonest reason a delivery slips a day in this county.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves Solon itself along with Glenwillow, Bentleyville, Chagrin Falls, Aurora and the eastern Cuyahoga County communities around them. Solon sits where three counties nearly meet, so county rules change within a few minutes of driving. Give us the exact address.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, settle the destination, and give you a firm 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.
For the standard five days, a 10-yard comes in at $399 to $499 and a 40-yard at $699 to $899. Weight-based disposal is charged on top, and the rate turns on which site receives the load. Your account manager confirms the tonnage allowance, the overage rate and the destination when you book.
Past one pickup load, renting wins in Solon. The city's own yard is a residents-only drop-off, not a renovation outlet, and the city collects only about a wheelbarrow of construction debris from a household. Everything beyond that is trips, fuel and minimum charges.
Yes, comfortably. A three-seat couch is about a fifth of a 10-yard, and a bed frame, a dresser and boxed goods go in around it. Bulky household items run out of space long before they approach a weight limit, so a 10-yard usually suits a furniture clear-down.
Fuels, solvents, wet paint, pesticides, pool chemicals and pressurized cylinders stay out, and so do liquids. Asbestos-bearing material is not permitted in a standard container. Tires, mattresses, electronics, medical waste and carpet each have their own route in Solon.
The 10-yard carries the lowest base price at $399 to $499, and on a Solon job with concrete or tile in it the 10-yard is often the right container anyway. Keeping dense material in its own load usually beats one mixed container that runs past its weight allowance.
Three days and five days usually settle at one figure in Solon, because the job rather than the calendar drives the price. Weight is what moves a Solon bill. Ask your account manager to confirm the included tonnage and the overage rate before the container is delivered.
Lumber, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, fixtures, doors, windows, furniture, cardboard, brick, block and clean concrete are all acceptable in an Ohio container. Clean concrete and clean untreated wood are worth keeping as separate loads. Check anything borderline with your account manager ahead of loading.
