Colorado / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Fruitvale.

Fruitvale has no town government, and outside Grand Junction's city limits private haulers compete for roll-off work. First confirm your parcel is still unincorporated, since Grand Junction has annexed land around Fruitvale and runs its own residential trash service. Then plan a driveway or yard spot: Mesa County requires permits for right-of-way work and has no dumpster permit we could find. Dumpster Dan posts low base prices but adds dump fees by the ton; WM quotes by phone. Keep the box tarped between loads and book a short rental: Mesa County’s Land Development Code wants rubbish in tightly closed containers, and its 2023 rubbish ordinance calls for accumulated rubbish to be removed at least weekly.

The first decision in Fruitvale

Match the terms to your project.

Dumpster Dan is the only company here with posted prices ($275 for a 10- or 15-yard box, $325 for a 20-yard, up to 5 days, $20 per extra day), but it adds dump fees per ton on top, so a heavy load costs more than the sticker. WM offers 15-, 20- and 30-yard boxes on daily, weekly or monthly terms but publishes no prices or tonnage. Trash Daddy posts the clearest weight and time terms (14 days, 1 to 4 tons) but does not name Fruitvale, and Budget Dumpster is a booking service.

Your local checklist

Check whether your parcel is inside Grand Junction city limits (annexed pockets are common around Fruitvale and both use 81504 Grand Junction addresses); if it is, City trash rules apply, not Mesa County's.
Set the box on your driveway or yard, clear of the County road and the roadside irrigation ditch; call Mesa County Public Works (970-244-1765) before letting any part of it sit in the right-of-way; keep it tarped between loads and schedule pickup within about a week (Mesa County Land Development Code 6.06 D; Ordinance 15).
Ask each company for the per-ton disposal rate in writing: Dumpster Dan lists $42 a ton on top of its base price, while the County landfill on U.S. 50 now charges $32 a ton for loose loads you haul and tarp yourself.

Dumpster Dan

Published sizes: 10 yards (12' x 8' x 4'), 15-yard low profile (16' x 8' x 4'4"), 20 yards (16' x 8' x 5'7") and 25 yards (16' x 8' x 6'10"), plus a 14-yard closed-top special-event container (14' x 7' x 6') and dump trailers for heavy loads. One page also mentions a 12-yard box without dimensions.
Rental & weight terms: Up to 5 days, then $20 per extra day; weekly and monthly programs also offered. Included weight per size is not published; the site refers only to 3- to 4-ton weight limits for heavy loads and says overage fees apply without giving an amount.
Price basis: Prices-and-sizes page: 10-yard $275 plus dump fees, 15-yard low profile $275 plus dump fees, 20-yard $325 plus dump fees; 25-yard and special-event prices not published. The same page lists landfill fees at $42 per ton. Extra charges: mattresses $20 each, fridge/freezer $125. Phone 970-812-3871.

Local, family-run Grand Valley company (founded 2018, no street address published) whose home, About and dumpster-rental pages name Fruitvale among the areas it serves. Its prices exclude disposal: the bill adds dump fees by the ton. Its posted $42 per ton is higher than the County landfill's current $32 per ton for loose loads, so ask what per-ton rate you will be charged. Its 16-foot boxes are shorter than a standard 22-foot roll-off, which can help on a narrow Fruitvale driveway.

Rental & weight terms: Daily, weekly and monthly rentals; included weight, overage and extra-day charges are not published (the page says weight varies by material). Hazardous items such as batteries, asbestos, chemicals and flammable liquids are not allowed.
Price basis: Not published; rates depend on debris type, size, rental length and add-ons. The page notes permit costs are generally not included. Call 855-400-8818 or quote online.

No Mesa County dumpster permit found; plan on keeping a Fruitvale roll-off on your own lot

In unincorporated Fruitvale the streets are Mesa County roads, so the County's Road and Right-of-Way Use Regulations (revised May 31, 2012) apply, not a city code. Section 3.2 requires a permit from the County Engineering Coordinator before anyone disturbs County right-of-way for utility, drainage or similar work, Section 8.1 sets that permit fee at $25, and Section 2.0 says the County may pursue fees, damages, injunctions or criminal complaints for unauthorized obstruction or use of a County road or right-of-way. Neither the regulations nor the County Public Works permits page (aerial, stormwater, oversize/overweight, special event, surface alteration and underground/utility permits) mentions dumpsters or roll-off containers. We therefore could not establish a dumpster-specific County rule; that is not the same as permission to park a box on the road. The safe course is a driveway or yard placement, clear of the road and its irrigation ditch (the regulations also bar using roadside ditches for irrigation tailwater). If the box truly has to touch the right-of-way, ask Mesa County Public Works Administration (970-244-1765, PubWksAdmin@mesacounty.us) first. If your parcel has been annexed into Grand Junction, City rules apply instead.

Mesa County Landfill on U.S. 50: $32 a ton for loose loads, and cover your load

The County landfill is at 3071 U.S. Highway 50, Grand Junction (81503). Its page lists loose trash and demolition debris at $32 per ton, a $10 minimum for loads up to 380 pounds, clean soil free and contaminated soil $60 per ton, and tire charges ($6 per car or truck tire without a rim, $12 with a rim). Appliances that contain refrigerant are not taken at the landfill. Hours are Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. The County cut the loose-waste rate from $51 to $32 per ton on February 3, 2025. The landfill site manager told KJCT in July 2025 that uncovered loads are charged double, so tarp a pickup or trailer.

Free household hazardous waste drop-off at the same County site

Roll-off companies won't take paint or chemicals.

Questions about renting in Fruitvale.

Do I need a Mesa County permit to put a dumpster in front of my Fruitvale house?

We could not find a Mesa County permit written for dumpsters. The County's Road and Right-of-Way Use Regulations require a $25 permit for work that disturbs County right-of-way and allow the County to pursue fees, damages or criminal complaints for unauthorized obstruction of a road or right-of-way, and the Public Works permits page lists no dumpster permit. Keep the roll-off on your own property, and call Public Works Administration at 970-244-1765 before placing anything in the right-of-way. If your parcel has been annexed into Grand Junction, ask the City instead. Separately, Section 6.06 D of the County’s Land Development Code requires rubbish and debris to be kept in tightly closed containers and removed at least monthly, and Ordinance 15 (2023) calls for accumulated rubbish, including construction leftovers, to be removed at least weekly, so tarp the box and keep the rental short.

Should I rent a roll-off or haul debris to the Mesa County Landfill myself?

For a small job, self-hauling can be cheaper. The landfill at 3071 U.S. 50 charges $32 per ton for loose trash and demolition debris with a $10 minimum for up to 380 pounds, and the County cut the loose-load rate from $51 on February 3, 2025. Cover your load: the landfill manager told KJCT in 2025 that uncovered loads pay double. For a remodel or roofing job, a roll-off saves trips, but compare the company's per-ton charge with the landfill's rate.
