Mon - Sat 7:00 am to 7:00 pm
At Prime Dumpster, we arrange delivery of roll-off containers from 10 to 40 yards across Syracuse, Utah and the west Davis County communities between Antelope Island and the interstate. Syracuse has grown from farmland to a city of subdivisions inside one generation, so the work here splits two ways: new residential construction and site clearance on former agricultural land, and the first wave of renovation on the houses that went up in the nineties and early 2000s.
Syracuse has one feature worth more to your budget than anything else here, and it is a county boundary. Davis County's waste authority charges district residents roughly half what it charges everyone else, and in some categories a fifth. Syracuse is inside the district. Getting that applied correctly is the single largest saving available on a Syracuse job.

The Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District publishes its disposal rates line by line, with an effective date of 2 September 2026, so a Syracuse quote can be explained rather than estimated.
Being inside the district is the first lever and it is a big one. In the published rate list, municipal solid waste over 10,000 pounds is $46.00 a ton for district material against $92.00 a ton from outside, exactly double. Clean fill such as dirt and sod runs $20.00 a ton inside against $40.00 a ton outside. A small load at or under 10,000 pounds is a $10.00 flat charge inside and $50.00 outside. Proof of district residency is the condition for the lower figure, so the job address does real work.
Sorting is the second lever. The same rate list charges $35.00 a ton for clean green waste and $15.00 a ton once chipped, both well under the mixed waste rate. Single items are charged separately: tires $4.00 each, refrigerators $15.00 each, and mattresses and bases $15.00 for each piece, so a mattress and a base count as two.
Covering the load is the third lever, and it is now law rather than good practice. The trucks tarp as standard, so the charge does not arise.
The number of days hardly registers. A single job price covers the container, so the day count rarely changes it.

Let the material pick the container for you.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the heavy-material size. Concrete, brick, block, stone and tile reach the weight limit well before they fill the space, so a patio or driveway removal belongs here. It also fits one bay of a Syracuse driveway without taking the whole apron.
The 15-Yard Dumpster takes a garage clear-down, a bathroom or kitchen strip-out, or a small roof tear-off.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Syracuse households end up with. Whole-house cleanouts, flooring removal and multi-room renovations all fit, and the walls are low enough to load over by hand.
The 30-Yard Dumpster handles new construction, large additions and genuine demolition. On the new subdivisions west of Bluff Road this is the standard choice for a build.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the commercial size, for large demolition, agricultural building clearance and substantial construction. It wants a straight approach, a level drop point and nothing overhead.
Unsure which fits? Describe the debris to your account manager and let the material settle it.
Private ground needs no permit. A driveway, a side yard or a fenced job site all count. That is the normal placement in Syracuse and the one we recommend.
For city rules we will be straight with you rather than confident. Syracuse publishes its municipal code through a legal publisher that will not serve a request from outside a browser session, and the city's own website would not respond on any address we tried. We will not state a city rule we have not read. So we make no claim about whether Syracuse requires a street permit for a container, what it costs, or how long it runs. If part of your container has to sit in a city street, the right first call is the Syracuse public works counter, and your account manager will make it with you.
What we can tell you with confidence is the Utah law that applies to every load, because the county authority publishes it word for word and we read it there.
Utah requires loads to be securely covered, and the statute defines the term tightly: the contents of a load must be completely covered by a solid barrier which will prevent the load from blowing, spilling, or falling from the vehicle. The duty runs the whole way, not just on the highway. In the statute's own words, a driver using a landfill must ensure the load is securely covered from the destination of origin until the driver deposits the load at the landfill. That provision took effect on 7 May 2025.
Two separate consequences follow, and they get confused, so here they are separately.
At the landfill, the district states that a landfill shall collect a $10 minimum fine for a vehicle in violation, enforced from 1 July 2026, with no exception for small loads and none for any material, compost and wood chips included. Part of what is collected goes to the state for litter clean-up.
On the road it is worse. A separate section of the Utah code bars operating a vehicle with an unsecured load on any highway, and bars carrying trash or garbage without covering the entire load. The district quotes the penalty as a fine of not less than $200. That is a traffic matter rather than a gate charge, and much the more expensive of the two.
At county level, Davis County's own environmental health division covers air, water, wastewater and septic, and food. There is no county waste hauler permit, no container permit and no vehicle sticker. The authority for solid waste in Davis County is the district, not the county health department.
One more gate to know about on an unusual job. The Davis Landfill accepts special handling waste only with prior approval, through the district's own profiling process, where a profile form is completed, signed and returned before anything arrives. If your load contains anything out of the ordinary, that approval belongs in the schedule ahead of the container, and your account manager will start it.
Everyday construction, demolition and household debris is acceptable. The exclusions and the separate routes are mostly about what the district will and will not take.
Household hazardous waste and electronics are free to district residents at the Davis Landfill. Paints, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, cleaners, batteries, fluorescent tubes, computers and televisions all go that way rather than into a container. One catch: the district does not accept either from outside the district at all, at any price.
Tires come out of the load and are charged individually, as are refrigerated appliances, mattresses and bases.
Free liquids, fuels, solvents, wet paint, asbestos and pressurized cylinders stay out of every container, everywhere. Medical waste and sharps are excluded.
Anything genuinely unusual is a different conversation rather than a prohibition, because the district runs a written approval process for special handling waste. Your account manager will settle it before delivery. And keep green waste separate where you can: it is the cheapest material to handle in Davis County and the most expensive to bury by mistake.

*Approved items may vary by location. Always check your local laws and regulations to avoid any fines or additional fees.
Syracuse is served by a genuinely public authority, which is unusual enough to be worth saying plainly. The Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District runs waste management for Davis and Morgan Counties, with a published board, a published staff directory and published financial statements. Most Syracuse container loads go to its Davis Landfill in Layton.
One practical warning from the district itself: the landfill's postal address does not work in navigation apps. Access is at 1700 East and Highway 193, just west of Mountain View Elementary at the traffic signal, following the signs from the highway.
The landfill is a modern engineered site. The old unlined cell took waste from about 1952 and closed permanently in 1999, and the lined cell built from 1998 meets federal standards with an engineered bottom liner and a leachate collection system. Landfill gas has been piped since January 2005 to Hill Air Force Base, where it generates 2.2 megawatts of electricity.
One change affects capacity rather than price. The district's energy recovery facility has closed, and it had been taking nearly half of all the waste in the district, so more material now goes straight to the landfill. The district's answer is a transfer station and mixed waste processing facility that routes waste instead of burying it locally.
At that transfer station, waste is tipped on one side of the floor and recyclables on the other, arranged so the two never mix, then trailered to the Bayview Landfill in Utah County, about 108 miles away and roughly an hour and forty minutes each way. Bayview is operated by the Northern Utah Environmental Resource Agency, a coalition of four regional waste management organizations of which the district is one. It runs to over 800 acres with a projected century of capacity.
The district's material recovery and transfer facility on 650 East is not open to the public. For self-haul there is a citizen drop-off at the landfill, where waste goes onto a concrete pad and staff move it into the cell, with recycling at the same spot.

Run by the Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District, a public district serving Davis and Morgan Counties. Open Monday to Saturday, 7 AM to 6 PM in summer and 7 AM to 5 PM in winter. Household hazardous waste and electronics are free to district residents only.
Most Syracuse deliveries can be scheduled within one to two business days. Landfill hours are the usual constraint rather than container availability.
Here is what makes a booking move quickly:
A note on hours: the landfill runs Monday to Saturday, closing at 6 in the evening during daylight saving time and at 5 through the winter, with six full holiday closures and eight early ones. Settle the collection day when you order.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves Syracuse itself and the Davis County communities around it, including West Point, Clinton, Clearfield, Hooper and the Antelope Island causeway approach. Because district residency sets the disposal rate, the exact address matters more here than almost anywhere in Utah.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, confirm your district status for the disposal rate, 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.
Allow $399 to $499 for a 10-yard and $699 to $899 for a 40-yard across the standard five days. Davis County charges by the ton on top, at half the rate for district material. Your account manager confirms the tonnage allowance and the overage rate before delivery.
Past one pickup load, the container wins in Syracuse. Utah law now requires every load to be fully covered from the moment it leaves the site, the landfill collects a charge where it is not, and the roadway penalty for an uncovered load is far steeper. One container with a booked collection avoids all of it.
Yes, with room to spare. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, leaving space for a bed frame and boxes. Note that mattresses and box springs are charged for each piece at the Davis Landfill, so mention them when you book rather than at collection.
Free liquids, fuels, solvents, wet paint, asbestos, pressurized cylinders, medical waste and sharps all stay out. Household hazardous waste and electronics go free to the Davis Landfill for district residents. Tires, refrigerators, mattresses and box springs are each charged separately.
The 10-yard is the lowest opening figure at $399 to $499. The cheapest overall result in Davis County comes from being correctly recorded as district material, which halves the per ton charge, and from keeping green waste out of the mixed load.
Three days and five days reach the same figure, because the container is priced against the work. Weight, sorting and district status are what move the bill. Ask your account manager to confirm the tonnage allowance before delivery.
Lumber, drywall, roofing, siding, flooring, cabinets, fixtures, furniture, brick, block and clean concrete are all acceptable, and the district takes clean fill such as dirt and sod as its own named category at a lower rate. Your account manager will check anything borderline beforehand.
