At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across South Holland, Illinois, and the nearby south Cook County suburbs in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Mid-century brick ranches getting new roofs and kitchens, basement work after heavy rain, and warehouse construction near the I-80 and I-294 interchange all keep containers busy in this village.
What you pay turns on the size of the container, the weight of the debris, the length of the rental, and the disposal charge at the receiving facility. Below you'll find current ranges, the Village permit that South Holland requires before a container arrives, and the materials Illinois keeps out of landfills.

Pricing in South Holland comes down to four things, and the Village adds one step to the process.
Container size leads. Each size up adds to the base rate, but the right size on the first try beats paying for a second delivery when a small container fills early.
Debris weight follows. Brick, plaster, tile, and soaked basement carpet all weigh more than they look, and they can clear an included tonnage before the container is full.
Disposal distance matters here. Cook County has no landfill of its own, so every load crosses a transfer station and then travels to a permitted landfill outside the county. That mileage and the facility's charge are both part of the price.
The Village permit is the fourth. South Holland requires a dumpster permit for the property and registration for the company delivering the container, and both take a few days. Your account manager tracks that with you so the paperwork does not hold up the job.

Start with volume, then check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes, and most South Holland driveways have room for the middle three.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is our shortest container. It suits a single bathroom, a small garage tear-out, or a load of broken concrete that would overload a bigger container.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles a cleared basement, a packed garage, or old carpet and padding from several rooms.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most households here book. A full cleanout, a kitchen and bath remodel, or an average asphalt roof fits in one drop.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for larger work: gut renovations, new construction, and small demolition jobs that produce bulky mixed debris.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest, and the usual pick for warehouse and plant cleanouts along the interstate corridor.
If two sizes look close, lay out the job for your account manager and we'll price the better one.
South Holland is stricter than most towns on this point, so read it carefully. Even on private property, including your own driveway, the Village requires a dumpster permit for the address. Community Development issues it, at 16220 Wausau Avenue.
The Village's own permit guide spells out the details. Applications go in online and usually take two to four business days. Once approved, the permit placard is emailed to you, and it has to be printed and displayed at the property for as long as the container is there.
Placement rules are firm. Off-street placement on a driveway or paved surface is required whenever possible. A container in the street is allowed only in special cases, for up to two days, with reflective tape, lighting, and barricades, and the Village inspects it at delivery. Storage pods are not allowed in the street at all.
One detail catches homeowners out. The dumpster permit covers a household cleanout only. If you're throwing out drywall, cabinets, fixtures, or demolition debris, the Village wants a building permit instead. An inspector also comes by the day after removal to check the cleanup. For questions, call Community Development at 708-210-2900, extension 5201. Your account manager can walk the whole sequence with you and confirm the Village has the container company on its current list.
Lumber, drywall, roofing, cabinets, flooring, furniture, and household junk all load normally, subject to the permit rules above. Beyond that, Illinois keeps a short list of material out of every landfill in the state.
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency publishes the bans with dates. Landscape waste has been barred from Illinois landfills since 1990. Large appliances, which the agency calls white goods, have been barred since 1994 unless their mercury switches, refrigerant, and PCB parts are removed first. Lead-acid vehicle batteries have been out since 1990, and a retailer has to take your old one when you buy a new one.
Electronics and tires have their own routes. Illinois law keeps televisions, monitors, computers, and used tires out of landfills, so take them out of the load and send them to a recycler.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, and asbestos stay out of every container delivered. Fluorescent tubes count too, because of the mercury inside them.
The same agency notes that landfills do take both clean and general construction debris, which is good news for a remodel. If an item is borderline, ask 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.
There is no landfill in Cook County. The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's current capacity report counts only four permitted landfills in the whole Chicago metropolitan region, and none of them sits in the county. Statewide, 35 permitted landfills took in nearly 47 million cubic yards of waste during 2024.
That means a container filled in South Holland is tipped at a transfer station first and then trucked out of the county. The closest of the four regional landfills is the Laraway Recycling and Disposal Facility in Joliet, southwest of the village, and the agency's report gives it the longest remaining life of the four at roughly 19 years.
For Village services rather than container loads, Public Works handles branch pickup and special item collection, and the number for infrastructure problems is 708-339-2323.
Each transfer station and landfill charges by weight and screens loads at the gate. Your account manager will tell you where your debris is going and what that charge looks like before the truck is scheduled.
We can usually schedule a South Holland container within one to two business days, with delivery in a 24 to 48 hour window. In practice, the Village permit sets the pace, so start that first and plan on a few extra days.
Five things worth doing early:
Also plan around the haul. With no landfill in the county, pickups are built around transfer station hours, so a container filled late on a Friday is normally collected the following week.

Prime Dumpster arranges delivery across South Holland and the neighboring south Cook County communities, from the neighborhoods along Wausau Avenue and 162nd Street out to Thornton, Riverdale, Glenwood, Homewood, and the industrial sites near the Bishop Ford and Kingery expressways.

Tell us about your project and your zip code. We'll size the container, walk you through the Village permit, and give you one 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.
A 10-yard container runs $399 to $499 and a 40-yard runs $699 to $899, both on a five-day rental. Chicago-area disposal and the haul out of Cook County both affect the total, along with what you load. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
Renting wins here, and not by a little. There is no landfill in Cook County, so self-hauling means finding a transfer station that takes small loads, paying a minimum at the gate, and driving it twice. One container handles the job and the hauling is ours.
Yes. A three-seat couch takes up about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a mattress, a dresser, and boxes. Household furniture fills volume long before it reaches a weight limit, so the smallest container often covers a basement clearing.
Illinois bans landscape waste, lead-acid vehicle batteries, used tires, electronics, and large appliances with their refrigerant still in them from landfills. Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, and asbestos also stay out. Flag tires and appliances when you book, since they carry per-item charges.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499, and its short body is easiest to fit on a driveway, which the Village prefers. Weight still decides the final bill. Brick, tile, or wet debris can pass the included tonnage early and add an overage charge.
Three days normally costs what five days costs, because the price covers delivery, pickup, and disposal rather than calendar days. Weight moves your invoice instead. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton adds before the container arrives.
Most household and construction debris is allowed: lumber, drywall, trim, shingles, flooring, doors, cabinets, furniture, and cardboard. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too, and they often price better on their own. Just remember the Village treats demolition debris as a building permit job, and your account manager can explain that.
