At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Tracy, California, and the surrounding San Joaquin County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Two decades of subdivision growth south and west of town have moved into their remodeling years, and warehouse and distribution construction along the Interstate 205 and Interstate 580 corridor keeps contractors needing containers on site.
Your cost depends on the size you take, how heavy and how mixed the debris is, how long the container stays, and what the receiving facility charges. Below you will find sizing guidance, the city rule for a container in the street, the materials California keeps out of the trash, and where a Tracy load is processed.

Size comes first, and in Tracy it is worth getting right the first time, because the local rules make a second container harder to arrange than in most towns.
Weight is next. Stucco, tile, concrete and roofing all run heavy enough to exhaust an allowance while the container still looks half empty, so describe the material when you call rather than the room.
Where the load is processed matters here more than usual. Tracy directs material generated inside the city to a designated materials recovery facility rather than straight to a landfill, and sorting costs are built into local disposal pricing.
Then there is the local service rule, and it is the one to raise first. Tracy has granted an exclusive collection franchise that covers construction and demolition debris alongside household refuse, and its exceptions are narrow. Your account manager will check how the rule applies to your address and your project before anything is scheduled or quoted.

Work out the volume, then test it against the weight of what you are removing. We run five sizes.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the choice for anything dense. Tile, stucco, block, broken concrete, and a single bathroom gut all suit it, because weight runs out well before space does.
The 15-Yard Dumpster handles the middle of the range. A garage cleared to the walls, carpet and padding from a whole house, or a small tear-off all fit in one.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common pick for Tracy homes. A full cleanout, or a kitchen and a bathroom done together, goes in without crowding.
The 30-Yard Dumpster is for long jobs: a studs-out remodel, an addition, or a new build producing mixed debris daily.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest. Warehouse clear-downs, commercial demolition, and bulky light material are what it is for.
Not sure between two sizes? Describe the job to your account manager and they will tell you which to take.
Keep the container on private property, in a driveway or inside a fenced job site, and Tracy has no street permit to issue. The rule changes the moment it obstructs or encroaches into a public street, sidewalk, or any public place used for travel.
For that, the city code requires a written excavation and encroachment permit from the City Public Works Department before anything is placed or left there. The application has to give the exact dimensions of the obstruction and how long it will stay, along with a signed indemnity.
Tracy attaches real conditions, and the encroachment rules spell them out. You have to carry liability insurance with minimum limits of $500,000.00 per person, $1,000,000.00 per occurrence, and $250,000.00 for property damage. Contractors also have to post a refundable cash deposit of up to 100 percent of the work cost, capped at $5,000.00 per project, and the Public Works Director may take a bond instead.
Two more conditions affect the job site itself. You have to install and maintain lights, barriers, and warning signs to the city traffic control manual, with lights and barricades at each end of the obstruction. You also have to give Public Works 48 hours notice before work starts, and the city may dictate the hours you work to keep traffic moving.
The permit then runs for 90 days from issue and is not transferable. Fees come in three parts: an administrative permit fee, inspection fees by the hour, and engineering fees, all set by city resolution. For questions, call Tracy Public Works at 209-831-6300. Your account manager can walk you through which of these would apply.
Before you book, confirm with the city that a container can be placed for your job at your address. Rules differ from city to city and they change. Your Prime Dumpster account manager will help you check, and will tell you plainly what your options are here.
Ordinary renovation debris is welcome: wood, drywall, flooring, roofing, cabinets, doors, trim, and general cleanout junk.
California keeps electronics out of the trash entirely. San Joaquin County lists televisions, computers, monitors, printers, stereos, DVD players, phones, electrical cords, and even holiday lights, and says plainly not to put them in the trash. Fluorescent lamps and anything containing mercury are handled as universal waste for the same reason.
Pressure treated wood is the one that catches deck and fence demolition. The county is explicit that treated lumber and posts cannot go in the garbage and have to go to a landfill designed for that material. Keep old deck boards and fence posts in their own pile and tell us about them.
Asbestos also stays out of the garbage, and the county takes only double-wetted, double-wrapped, non-friable material at its hazardous waste site. Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel are out of a standard container as well, and scrap metal should be recycled rather than buried.
If you are unsure where something belongs, 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.
Tracy directs material generated inside the city to the Tracy Material Recovery Facility, which the city says receives and processes the solid waste, recyclables, green waste, food waste, and wood from Tracy, Mountain House, and nearby parts of the county. The city sets out that arrangement on its own recycling and solid waste page.
San Joaquin County runs the public sites around Tracy, and which one you need depends on the material. The North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill at 17720 E. Harney Lane, Lodi, CA 95240 is the county site that takes construction and demolition waste. Gates are open Monday through Sunday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and the closing time is strictly enforced.
The nearest county site is the Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility and Transfer Station at 2323 E. Lovelace Road, Manteca, CA 95336, open the same hours. It takes household and commercial waste but turns away construction and demolition waste, tires, and appliances, which is worth knowing before anyone loads a pickup.
For the items a container cannot legally take, the San Joaquin County Household Hazardous Waste Consolidation Facility sits at 7850 R.A. Bridgeford Street, Stockton, CA 95206 and opens Thursday through Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
One county rule is worth repeating: a load that arrives uncovered or untarped is charged a double disposal fee. Your account manager will confirm where your material is routed and what that means for your total.

Most orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Build in extra time for Tracy, both for the street permit if you need one and for the service rule your account manager has to check first.
Use these tips for a smooth delivery:
Keep the county hours in mind too. Both county sites close at 4:00 p.m. and enforce it, and both shut on Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. Tell us early if your finish date falls near a holiday.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster coordinates dumpster rentals across Tracy and the nearby San Joaquin County communities, including Mountain House, Banta, and the neighborhoods along Grant Line Road, Corral Hollow Road, and the Tracy Hills area. One thing to raise on the first call: the City of Tracy runs its collection service through an exclusive franchise that covers construction debris as well as household refuse, so your account manager will confirm how that rule applies to your address and your project before anything is booked.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, check what the city requires at your address, and give you a straight answer 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.
Dumpster rentals in Tracy start at $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container and reach $699 to $899 for a 40-yard container on a five-day rental. Local processing and the city service rules both affect what is possible here. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage, the overage rate, and availability when quoting.
A container usually wins on anything past a couple of loads. The nearest county transfer station in Manteca refuses construction debris, so a remodel has to travel to the county landfill near Lodi instead. That is a long round trip, paid by weight, plus fuel and your own hours.
Yes, with room left. A three-seat couch takes about a fifth of a 10-yard container, which leaves space for a mattress, a dresser, and a stack of boxes. Furniture fills volume long before it comes anywhere near the weight limit.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel are always out. California also bans electronics from the trash and bars pressure treated wood from ordinary landfills, so televisions, monitors, old deck boards, and fence posts all need separate handling. Asbestos has its own packaging rules.
The 10-yard container carries the lowest starting price, at $399 to $499. Cheapest to rent is not always cheapest to finish, though. Fill a small container with stucco or tile and you can pass its weight allowance quickly. Keeping dense material in its own load is often the better deal.
Three days generally costs the same as five, because the price covers delivery, haul, and processing rather than the calendar. Weight is what moves the bill. Ask your account manager how much tonnage is included and what each additional ton costs before you commit.
Most household and construction debris is fine: untreated wood, drywall, roofing, flooring, cabinets, doors, windows, furniture, and cardboard. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted as well, and a clean single-material load usually processes more cheaply. Check anything unusual with your account manager first.
