At Prime Dumpster, we provide roll-off dumpster rentals across Yuba City, California, and the surrounding Sutter County communities in sizes from 10 to 40 yards. New housing off Lincoln Road and Franklin Road, orchard and farmhouse renovations around the Feather River, and a steady run of construction and remodeling work downtown keep roll-off containers busy on both sides of the river.
What you pay turns on the size you choose, the kind of debris going in, how long you keep the container, and the weight-based fees at the regional landfill. Below you will find our price ranges, who to call about a permit for a street placement, what the city's rules say about construction debris, and what has to stay out of the load.

Here is what moves the number in Yuba City, from the container itself out to the scale at the landfill.
Container size is the starting point. Going one size up costs less than booking a second haul later, and it costs a lot less than paying for extra weight you did not plan for.
Debris weight does most of the rest. Roof shingles, stucco, tile, and broken concrete are heavy for their volume, so a small container can reach its weight allowance while it still looks half full. Furniture, cabinets, and drywall are the opposite, filling the walls long before the scale notices.
Separation can save you money here, and in California it is partly a rule rather than a preference. City rules ask that construction and demolition material be separated for recycling where possible, following the state's green building standards, and a clean single-material load is usually cheaper to tip than a mixed one. Your account manager can talk through how to split a job across loads.
One Yuba City detail is worth knowing before you order. The city's household and business trash service is a mandatory city program with a single contracted collector, and the city's rules route construction and demolition debris out of that program and onto the owner or contractor to haul away. A mixed load that includes ordinary household trash is a different question, so have your account manager confirm how your load will be classified before delivery.

Pick by volume first, then sanity-check the weight. Prime Dumpster carries containers from 10 to 40 yards.
The 10-Yard Dumpster is the smallest container we offer. It fits a bathroom remodel, a single room, or a yard cleanup, and it is the right call for concrete, brick, roof tile, and soil, which run out of allowed weight long before they run out of space.
The 15-Yard Dumpster covers the jobs in between: a garage or shed cleanout, old carpet and tile coming up, or a small roof tear-off on a single-story house.
The 20-Yard Dumpster is the size most Yuba City households choose. A full move-out cleanout or a remodel spanning several rooms usually lands here with room to work.
The 30-Yard Dumpster takes the bigger jobs, including an addition, a new build, or a demolition that produces a large volume of mixed material in a short time.
The 40-Yard Dumpster is our largest container, built for commercial construction and high-volume industrial cleanouts where a smaller size would need swapping out twice.
Still weighing two sizes against each other? Walk the job through with your account manager and they will size it with you.
On private property, including your own driveway or a fenced job site, Yuba City does not require a street permit for a container. That is also where the city would rather it sat, since its collection rules keep containers out of the street right of way by default.
If the container has to go in the street or across a sidewalk, you need a permit first. The City of Yuba City requires an encroachment permit for any activity within, under, or over the city's right of way, and the city's own list of work needing one includes equipment or structures placed on the street or sidewalk. That covers a roll-off container squarely.
Permits come from the Public Works Department at City Hall, 1201 Civic Center Boulevard. You complete the encroachment permit application and submit it with the required documents in person or by email. The counter is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., though City Hall is closed to the public on Fridays, so build that into your timing.
For questions about a specific address, call Yuba City Public Works at 530-822-4626. If you are not certain whether your drop spot sits in the right of way, your account manager can help you reach the right person before your delivery date.
Most building debris and household junk is welcome. The limits here come mainly from California's statewide list of material kept out of the trash.
The state is blunt about it: putting hazardous waste in the garbage, down a storm drain, or on the ground is illegal in California. The list of items banned from the trash is longer than most people expect. It includes all batteries, fluorescent tubes and LED lights, motor oil and filters, antifreeze, pesticides, oil-based paint, pool chemicals, and tires, which are barred to prevent mosquito breeding and tire fires.
Two of those matter a lot on a construction job. Asbestos in older cement board, roofing, flooring, and siding cannot go in a container, and neither can treated wood, which turns up as old fence posts, deck boards, and sill plates. Both need their own handling. Electronics are also out: the state treats televisions, monitors, computers, and similar gear as universal waste that cannot be put in household trash or buried in a landfill.
Beyond that, keep out liquids, solvents, fuel, and anything explosive or reactive. Yuba City's own rules add ammunition, chemicals, acids, medicines, and oversize items such as machine parts, logs, and tree stumps that can damage collection equipment. Large appliances and furniture are handled separately from regular trash in the city rules, so flag them when you book.
When something is borderline, ask your account manager 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.
Yuba City does not own a landfill or a transfer station. Collection, recycling, and disposal for the city and its neighbors run through an exclusive franchise coordinated by the Regional Waste Management Authority, a public joint powers agency at 423 4th Street in Marysville that Yuba City and Sutter County both sit on. Every receiving site in the two counties is privately owned, which is why we name destinations here by location rather than by operator.
Mixed debris from Yuba City projects goes to the regional municipal solid waste landfill on Ostrom Road in unincorporated Yuba County, about five miles northeast of Wheatland and a short run down Highway 65. State water quality regulators class it as a lined municipal solid waste landfill, and it serves the wider Yuba, Sutter, and neighboring county area. Sorted material such as clean wood, metal, or concrete often goes to a recovery facility instead, and keeping those loads separate is usually the cheaper route.
Disposal there is priced by weight, and the rates are set by the facility rather than by us. Your account manager will confirm where your load is headed and explain the included tonnage and any extra charges before the container is delivered.
Most Yuba City orders can be scheduled within one to two business days, with delivery arriving in a 24 to 48 hour window. A little lead time helps, especially if a permit is involved or City Hall's Friday closure falls in the middle of your week.
Five things that make delivery day easier:
Keep in mind that the regional landfill works on weekday and Saturday schedules, so a container filled late in the week may not be emptied until the following week.

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.
In Yuba City a 10-yard container runs $399 to $499, and a 40-yard container runs $699 to $899, both based on a five-day rental. The material you load and the weight-based fee at the regional landfill set the rest. Your account manager confirms the included tonnage and the overage rate when you book.
Renting is usually cheaper once a job runs past one or two pickup loads. Hauling it yourself means repeated drives out toward Wheatland, a charge at the gate each time, fuel, and your whole weekend. A single container absorbs the entire job and gets hauled once.
It will, with space left over. A standard three-seat couch takes roughly a fifth of a 10-yard container, so you can still add a mattress, a few chairs, and boxed clutter. Soft furniture is bulky rather than heavy, so volume runs out first.
In California, keep out hazardous waste, liquids, paint, solvents, fuel, motor oil, antifreeze, batteries, tires, asbestos, and treated wood. Electronics such as televisions and monitors are banned from the trash and from landfills statewide. Yuba City also bars chemicals, ammunition, and oversize items like machine parts and tree stumps.
The 10-yard container starts lowest, at $399 to $499. The load decides your real total, though. Dense debris such as concrete, stucco, or roof tile can pass a small container's weight allowance quickly, so giving heavy material its own load often ends up cheaper overall.
A three-day rental generally costs the same as five days, because pricing is built around the job rather than counted per day. Weight matters more to the final invoice. Ask your account manager how many tons come included and what an extra ton costs, then load with that number in mind.
Almost all ordinary building and household debris is fine: lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, doors, furniture, cardboard, and general junk. Clean concrete, brick, and asphalt are accepted too, and separating them often lowers the disposal cost. Run anything unusual past your account manager first.
