At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Wilsonville, Alabama, and the surrounding Shelby County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. Wilsonville sits on Lay Lake in the southeast corner of the county, and lake property drives a lot of the work here: dock and deck rebuilds, cabin and camp house renovations, roof replacements, and seasonal cleanouts. Year-round homes along Main Street and the county routes add remodels and estate clearances, and new construction keeps a steady flow of lumber and wallboard going out.
What you pay turns on the container size, how heavy the load is, how long you keep it, and the per-ton rate at the county landfill. Below are the price ranges, how the permit question works in a town this size, what the landfill turns away, and how fast delivery can be arranged.

| 30-Yard Dumpster | $599–$799 | 22' L × 8' W × 6' H | Major renovations, new residential construction, large commercial projects |

Container size is the first thing to settle. Going a size up costs less than ordering a size too small, since that means either overage charges or paying for a second haul.
Weight is the next. Shingles, mortar, tile, and old concrete are dense, so they reach the weight allowance while the container still looks half empty. That is usually a reason to pick a smaller container, not a bigger one.
Disposal is the part you can price out exactly here, because the county publishes its rates. The county landfill charges Shelby County customers $30 per ton, which includes a small state fee. Small loads brought in by car or SUV are $10 and a pickup load at or below the cab height is $14. Those figures make it easy to see where a container starts paying for itself.
Distance plays a part too. Wilsonville sits across Lay Lake and the Coosa River from the Birmingham suburbs, so the road route out of town is longer than a map suggests. Your account manager can build the haul into the quote so pricing stays clear up front.

Pick the container by how much debris the job will make, then check the material against the weight allowance. Prime Dumpster carries five sizes, and lake property jobs around Wilsonville tend to use the smaller three.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the compact option and the right choice for dense loads. A bathroom gut, a single deck tear-off, or a load of broken concrete and block all suit it well.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers a garage or storage building clearing, a kitchen tear-out, or a modest shingle job. It is the step to take when a 10-yard will clearly be full.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the common pick for a full-house cleanout or a remodel across several rooms, and it still sits fine on a driveway or a gravel pad.
The 30-Yard Dumpster suits a new build, a large addition, or a demolition where the volume climbs fast across mixed material.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is the largest we carry, built for commercial demolition and construction work that runs for weeks.
Not sure where your job lands? Describe it to your account manager and they will size it for you.
On private property, including your own driveway, a gravel pad, or a fenced job site, no town permit applies to the container. That covers nearly every rental here, because lake lots and rural parcels usually have somewhere to set a container well back from the road.
Wilsonville is a small town and it does not publish a street or right-of-way rule for containers. Its published ordinances cover water and sewer rates, zoning, grass and weed abatement, unsafe structures, and a handful of tax and administrative matters. If the only workable spot for your container is a town street or shoulder, call Town Hall at 205-669-6180 before you book so the placement is agreed in advance. The office is at 9905 North Main Street.
Two other authorities can come into play. County roads outside the town limits are the county's, and a state route through the area falls to the Alabama Department of Transportation. Which one applies depends on the road your container would sit on.
One town rule does bear on larger projects. Wilsonville has its own ordinance on the remedy or demolition of unsafe structures, and zoning regulations that apply to new work, so a teardown has a town approval path even though container placement does not. Tell your account manager the exact address and the type of job, and they will help you find the right office before delivery day.
Ordinary building and cleanout debris is welcome. Alabama does not publish a statewide list of banned materials, so the limits that actually matter here come from the county landfill gate.
The county landfill will not take hazardous waste, automobile batteries, vehicle tires, or liquid wastes of any type, and it does not accept vehicles. Those four refusals are the ones to plan around, because a single car battery or a few tires can put a whole load at risk.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel stay out of a standard container in every case. Asbestos needs a licensed abatement contractor rather than a container.
There is also a site rule worth knowing even though it falls on the driver rather than on you. Since the spring of 2026, everyone entering the landfill's municipal waste or construction and demolition working cells has to wear a hard hat and a safety vest, and the county says it will enforce it strictly. If you were planning to follow your own load in, that now applies to you as well. Ask your account manager about anything you are unsure of before it goes in the container.
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.
Loads from Wilsonville go to the Shelby County Highway 70 Landfill at 401 Landfill Road, Columbiana, AL 35051, out on State Highway 70 between Calera and Columbiana. It is open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It is closed on Sundays, New Year's Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. The county takes calls about the site at 205-669-4169.
The site is run by Shelby County Environmental Services and is licensed for both municipal solid waste and construction and demolition debris, which is why a mixed remodel load has a home there rather than needing to be split and shipped in two directions. The county sets what it charges and what it accepts, not the hauler.
Worth knowing as a resident: the county also holds two free landfill days a year for Shelby County residents, with the same refusal list applying on those days. Your account manager can confirm where your load is headed and what the gate will charge before the container is delivered.
401 Landfill Road, Columbiana, AL 35051
Open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Most Wilsonville rentals can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. Lake addresses are worth booking a little earlier, since routing to a camp house takes more planning than a suburban driveway.
These five habits make delivery day go smoothly:
Keep the landfill calendar in mind as well. It is closed every Sunday and on six holidays, so a container filled late on a Saturday will usually be emptied on Monday.
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges delivery across Wilsonville and the surrounding Shelby County communities, from Main Street and the town center out to the Lay Lake shoreline, the camp house roads, and the farms along the county routes toward Columbiana. Gravel drives and long lake approaches are routine for us, and we plan the route before the truck leaves.
Tell us about your project and your zip code. We will size the container, work out the best drop spot for your lot, and quote it 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.
Wilsonville rentals run $399 to $499 for a 10-yard container up to $699 to $899 for a 40-yard, on a five-day rental. What you load and the county landfill's per-ton rate both move the total. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
For a single pickup load, driving it yourself is cheap. Past that it stops being close. Every trip means fuel, a weigh-in, and most of a morning, and a truck bed holds a fraction of a 10-yard container. Two or three loads in, one container usually costs less and finishes the job in one go.
Yes, with room to spare. 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 runs you out of room long before it runs you out of weight allowance.
Hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, and fuel are out in every case. The county landfill also refuses automobile batteries, vehicle tires, and liquid wastes, so those have to be handled separately. Asbestos needs a licensed abatement contractor rather than a container.
The 10-yard container has the lowest starting price, $399 to $499. The cheapest container is not always the cheapest job, though. Fill a small one with mortar or block and you can pass the weight allowance quickly. Keeping heavy material in its own load is usually where the saving is.
Three days normally costs the same as five, because the price follows the job and the tonnage rather than the calendar. Weight is what shifts the bill. Ask your account manager what tonnage is included and what each extra ton costs before the container goes out.
Nearly all ordinary building and cleanout debris. That covers lumber, drywall, roofing, decking, flooring, cabinets, carpet, furniture, cardboard, and general junk from a cleanout. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are fine too, and a clean load of them often costs less to get rid of. Check anything unusual with your account manager first.
