Dumpster Rental in Jackson, Wyoming

Jackson, Wyoming sits in one of the most expensive dumpster rental markets in the Mountain West. The Teton County Trash Transfer Station charges $152 per ton for landfill-bound waste — among the highest tipping fees in Wyoming — which gets passed directly into provider pricing. Budget accordingly:

• 10-yard dumpster — Small cleanouts, single-room renovations, garage purges. Expect $450–$600. Fits roughly 3 pickup truck loads.
• 20-yard dumpster — The most common choice for kitchen gut jobs, flooring tear-outs, and mid-size remodels throughout the 83001 ZIP. Typically $550–$750.
• 30-yard dumpster — Larger renovations, multi-room tear-outs, roofing debris, full home staging cleanouts. Around $650–$950.
• 40-yard dumpster — Commercial construction, full home demolitions, major luxury remodel projects in Teton Village and Wilson. $800–$1,200+.

Heartland Recycling Services offers a flat-rate model starting at $500 across all container sizes — pricing that includes delivery, pickup, and disposal up to the weight allowance.

The Town of Jackson requires a Public Right-of-Way (PROW) Permit for any dumpster or equipment placed in the public right-of-way — including streets, sidewalks, and public easements. Jackson Hole's resort-town traffic patterns make the town especially vigilant about obstructions on public roadways.

How to apply: Submit your PROW permit application to townengineering@jacksonwy.gov or call the Engineering Division at (307) 733-3932. You'll need to provide a sketch showing the encroachment area, a Traffic Control Plan meeting MUTCD Part 6 Standards, and a construction fencing layout.

Dumpsters placed entirely on private driveways away from the public right-of-way don't require a PROW permit, though some construction projects near downtown Jackson may still need review through the Planning & Building Department at (307) 733-0440 ext. 1304.

• PROW permit required for street or sidewalk placement
• Traffic Control Plan must meet MUTCD Part 6
• Private driveway placement typically permit-free
• Construction sites near downtown may require additional review

Plan for a few business days of lead time on permit approval. In busy summer months, the Engineering Division receives high volumes of permit requests alongside ongoing Town Square event coordination.

All waste hauled in Jackson-area dumpsters is processed through the Teton County Trash Transfer Station — there is no in-county landfill. Everything gets transferred out of Teton County after sorting.

Winter hours: Monday–Friday 8am–3pm, Saturday 8am–12pm. Hours expand seasonally — confirm current hours before planning your haul.

Key tipping fees:

• Landfill-bound trash: $152/ton (minimum $10) — this is the primary driver of Jackson's higher container pricing
• Yard waste / compost: $103/ton

• Mattresses/box springs: $35 each
• Refrigeration units (freon appliances): $40/unit
• Untarped loads: subject to a surcharge — all roll-offs must be tarped in transit

Demolition waste requires asbestos testing documentation and a 48-hour advance notice before the station will accept it. If you're demoing older construction (pre-1980s) in areas like downtown Jackson or older Wilson homes, factor in testing lead time before booking your container.

Jackson Hole's economy generates a specific and consistent profile of dumpster rental demand that differs significantly from the rest of Wyoming:

• Luxury home renovations — Jackson's median home value is among the highest in the US. High-end kitchen and bathroom gut jobs, flooring replacements, and master suite additions are constant throughout neighborhoods in the 83001 ZIP and surrounding Wilson (83014) area. A 20-yard container handles most single-floor renovation debris.
• Tear-down and rebuild projects — Older homes throughout Teton County are frequently demolished and replaced with larger, higher-value structures. These full demo projects require 30 or 40-yard containers and advance coordination with the transfer station for demo debris.
• New construction cleanup — Ongoing residential and commercial development around Teton Village (83025) and South Park generates consistent framing, drywall, and finishing waste that contractors manage with 30-yard roll-offs throughout the build cycle.
• Roofing replacements — Jackson's heavy snowpack loads cause significant roof wear. A standard shingle tear-off on an average Jackson home fills a 10-yard container; double-layer roofs or cedar shake replacements typically need a 20-yard.
• Estate and seasonal property cleanouts — Second-home owners in Moose, Hoback, and Kelly areas frequently use roll-off dumpsters when preparing properties for sale or transitioning between owners. A 20–30 yard container handles most full-house cleanouts.
• Landscaping and spring cleanup — Post-winter yard debris removal, tree trimming, and landscaping for luxury properties is a major spring use case across Teton County.

A few things worth knowing before you book:

• Book early in spring. April through June is peak renovation season in Jackson Hole. Contractors, second-home owners, and new construction teams all compete for the same limited container inventory. Booking 1–2 weeks ahead is standard in peak season.
• Weight matters more here. Jackson's $152/ton tipping fee makes overage charges especially painful. For roofing, concrete, or demolition work, ask your provider for a heavy-debris container or a separate specialty roll-off rated for denser materials.
• Protect your driveway. High-value asphalt and concrete driveways throughout Jackson are easily cracked by roll-off skids. Request plywood placement under skids — most local providers do this by default for residential drops in upscale neighborhoods.
• Prohibited items are enforced. The Teton County Transfer Station actively inspects loads. Items like batteries, electronics, tires, paint, freon appliances, and wild game cannot go in standard containers. E-waste must go to designated recycling; freon appliances carry a separate $40/unit fee at the station.
• Plan for demolition lead time. If any of your demo work involves pre-1980s materials, arrange asbestos testing and provide 48 hours notice to the transfer station before scheduling container pickup. Missing this step can result in load rejection.
• Winter delivery window narrows. December through March brings heavy snowfall and limited access to some secondary roads and residential alleys throughout Teton County. Confirm your site is accessible before scheduling winter deliveries.
