Phoenix dumpster rental FAQ

Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Phoenix, AZ?

Not on your own driveway. Phoenix doesn't publish a rule specifically for dumpsters on the street, so before placing one on a street or sidewalk, ask Phoenix Street Transportation at (602) 262-6235 whether a right-of-way permit is needed. Most cities require one. HOA rules may also apply.

How much does a dumpster rental cost in Phoenix?

Estimated 2026 prices in Phoenix run about $495 for a 10-yard to $740 for a 40-yard for a 7-day rental with base weight included. A 20-yard, the most common size, is typically $476–$644. Your hauler sets the final price.

Where does trash from Phoenix dumpsters go?

Much of the mixed debris from Phoenix goes to 27th Avenue Transfer Station, 3060 S 27th Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85009, operated by City of Phoenix Public Works. Haulers may route loads through transfer stations or recycling facilities first.

What can't I put in a dumpster in Phoenix?

Most haulers bar hazardous waste, liquid paint and solvents, tires, batteries, appliances with refrigerant, asbestos, medical waste, and liquids, and many also bar electronics. Ask your hauler for their full prohibited-items list and any fees for special materials, or check our list of what can go in a dumpster.

How long can I keep a rental dumpster in Phoenix?

Many haulers include about a week in the base price and charge a daily fee after that, so ask for the extra-day rate when you compare quotes. If the dumpster is on the street under a permit, the permit's end date is the limit.

Cheap vs. best: comparing dumpster rentals in Phoenix

What is the cheapest dumpster rental in Phoenix?

The cheapest option in Phoenix is usually a 10-yard dumpster at about $495 for 7 days, base weight included. A short 3-day rental can bring that closer to $445.
