Dumpster rental
in Salida.

Salida has no City trash service; households subscribe to a private hauler, so a roll-off is an ordinary private rental. None of the three companies advertising Salida roll-offs posts a price, so get written quotes that state days, included tons and overage. Keep the box off City streets unless the City issues an encroachment permit, and remember the Chaffee County Landfill takes pickup loads at $20 a yard if your job is small.

The first decision in Salida

Match the terms to your project.

Apex offers 10- to 30-yard boxes but caps heavy debris such as concrete and shingles at about one cubic yard and adds 2% for credit cards. WM lists 15 to 30 yards in its table (40 in its FAQ) and sells the Bagster for small jobs. Arkansas Valley Roll-Off publishes no Salida sizes and two addresses. None posts prices, rental days or included weight.

Your local checklist
  1. Ask each company for a written quote that states rental days, included tons, the per-ton overage and extra-day charges; none of the Salida pages publishes them.
  2. If the box will sit on a City street, alley or parkway, ask Salida Public Works (719-539-6257) about an encroachment permit under Code Section 11-4-10 before delivery; on US 50 or Highway 291 ask CDOT instead.
  3. Plan for concrete separately: the Chaffee County Landfill does not accept concrete and Apex limits heavy material to about one cubic yard per box, so ask how your hauler handles masonry and dirt.

Salida's code requires an encroachment permit for equipment in the right-of-way; it has no dumpster-specific rule

Chapter 11, Article IV of the Salida Municipal Code says no one may place a cart, structure or other equipment in the public right-of-way without a valid encroachment permit (Section 11-4-10), and that permits come from the City Administrator, are revocable, may carry a set term and conditions, and carry a fee set by City Council resolution (Section 11-4-20). The code does not name dumpsters or roll-offs, and we did not find a published fee or time limit for a container, so treat a box on a street, alley or parkway as needing City approval and call Salida Public Works (719-539-6257) before delivery. Highways 50 and 291 through town are state highways, where CDOT, not the City, controls the right-of-way. On your own lot, Chapter 7 requires loads that can blow away to stay in a container, and decaying material to be in a closed container animals cannot reach.

What matters locally

Chaffee County Landfill charges $64 a ton for construction debris and $20 a yard for pickup loads

The county landfill at 16550 Highway 285 (719-539-3738) is open to the public Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and closed Wednesdays and Sundays; it also shuts in high winds, so call ahead on gusty days. In-county tipping fees effective January 1, 2026 are $62 per ton for compacted trash, $64 per ton for loose trash, construction debris, shingles, stumps and brush, $20 per cubic yard for a pickup load, and a $20 minimum. Concrete is not accepted. Per-item fees include $15 for non-Freon appliances, $50 for Freon appliances, $30 per mattress or box spring and $11 per car tire without a rim. Unsorted loads that do not meet landfill rules can be charged a $250-per-ton Dirty Dumper fee, and hazardous materials are refused.

Most Salida-area households hire their own hauler

Chaffee County's landfill page says most county residents contract with private haulers for household trash, and it pays by credit card, cash or local check (businesses can apply for a charge account). For a small cleanout, a single pickup load hauled to the landfill at $20 per cubic yard can cost far less than a roll-off rental.

Questions about renting in Salida.

Does the City of Salida pick up trash or rent roll-off dumpsters?

No. Salida's Municipal Code (Chapter 7, Article III) makes property owners keep refuse contained and removed but gives the City no collection service and sets no refuse-hauler license, and Chapter 6 lists no hauler license either. Local coverage of an April 20, 2026 City Council work session describes trash service as a private subscription program served by three local haulers and says a hauler-licensing program was only proposed. If a licensing rule has since been adopted, ask your hauler whether it holds a current Salida license.

Where do Salida dumpster loads go, and what does it cost to haul a load myself?

Chaffee County Landfill at 16550 Highway 285 south of Salida. For 2026 it charges in-county customers $64 per ton for construction debris, shingles and loose trash, $20 per cubic yard for pickup loads and a $20 minimum, plus per-item fees such as $50 for a Freon appliance and $30 per mattress. It does not take concrete or hazardous materials and is closed to the public on Wednesdays and Sundays.
