Dumpster Rental in Lander, Wyoming

Dumpster rental in Lander runs slightly higher than the Wyoming state average because of the city's central location in Fremont County — haul distances to disposal facilities and regional fuel costs factor into final quotes. Expect to pay in the range of $320–$800 depending on container size and project duration:

• 10-yard dumpster: $320–$400 — garage cleanouts, single-room remodels, small yard projects
• 20-yard dumpster: $400–$520 — kitchen or bath gut jobs, deck tear-downs, mid-size estate cleanouts
• 30-yard dumpster: $490–$650 — full roof replacements, large home renovations, commercial tearouts
• 40-yard dumpster: $610–$800 — whole-house cleanouts, new construction debris, large commercial jobs

Standard rental periods run 7–14 days. Most providers offer daily extension rates if your project stretches — ask upfront before scheduling. Weight overages on heavy materials like concrete, asphalt, or roofing shingles are billed per ton beyond the container's included allowance, typically 2–5 tons depending on size.

Placing a roll-off dumpster on your own driveway or private property in Lander (ZIP 82520) requires no permit. Wyoming has no statewide permitting requirement for container placement on private land, and most residential drop-and-go rentals happen entirely on private driveways without any city involvement.

Two situations require extra steps before your container arrives:

• Street or sidewalk placement: If the dumpster needs to sit in a public right-of-way, contact the City of Lander Public Works department at (307) 332-2870 (240 Lincoln Street, Lander, WY 82520) before scheduling delivery. They can advise on temporary placement rules and any required authorization.
• Large demolition projects: Major demolition generating significant C&D debris volume may require notification to the Fremont County Solid Waste Disposal District at (307) 332-7040. Standard home remodels and cleanouts don't trigger this requirement.

For most Lander homeowners renting a 10- or 20-yard container, no permit paperwork is needed — just schedule the drop and get started.

Lander is served by the Lander Landfill & Bale Station, operated by the Fremont County Solid Waste Disposal District (branded as "Trash Matters"). The facility is located at 52 Beebee Road, Lander, WY 82520 — head north on Highway 789 from the Hwy 789/287 intersection for about 2.2 miles, then right on Beebee Road for 0.7 miles.

Hours: Tuesday through Saturday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (closed Sundays, Mondays, and major holidays). Roll-off providers hauling your container will schedule pickups around these hours — factor this into your project timeline if you're cutting it close to the weekend.

Tipping fees: Roll-off and dump trucks are charged $10.00 per cubic yard for MSW and C&D debris. The district also accepts e-waste, non-friable asbestos (at $80/ton with proper containment), and sump mud (with a surcharge). Recyclables including plastics #1 and #2, paper, metals, green waste, and used motor oil are accepted free of charge.

Items prohibited from the landfill and from any roll-off container in Lander include: hazardous chemicals, liquid waste, tires (unless recycled), batteries, electronics (accepted free at the bale station recycling drop), medical or biohazard waste, flammable liquids, propane tanks, and refrigerant appliances (must be de-gassed first). Friable asbestos is not accepted under any circumstances.

Lander's housing stock is a mix of older ranch-style homes, agricultural properties, and newer construction spreading out from downtown. Project types here tend to run toward bulk over weight — estate cleanouts, barn or outbuilding demolitions, and whole-room renovations generate a lot of volume. Here's how to match your container to the work:

• 10 yards: Garage cleanout, single-room remodel, small yard cleanup. Holds roughly 3 pickup truck loads. Good starting point for smaller Lander homes.
• 20 yards: The most versatile size for Lander homeowners. Handles full kitchen or bathroom gut-outs, deck removals, mid-size estate cleanouts, and basement purges. Holds 6–8 pickup loads.
• 30 yards: Best for roofing jobs (asphalt shingles are heavy — verify weight limits before booking), multi-room renovations, or clearing out an outbuilding. Holds 9–12 pickup loads.
• 40 yards: For large construction projects, full home demo, or commercial-scale debris. Requires adequate space at the drop location and ample clearance overhead.

Ranch and agricultural cleanouts around Lander often surprise people with the amount of material involved — old fencing, machinery parts, stored lumber, and years of accumulated equipment add up fast. If you're clearing a property south of town toward Atlantic City or out toward Hudson, size up rather than down. A second trip costs more than upgrading from the start.
