Dumpster Rental in St. Johns County, FL: Pricing, Permits, and What to Expect

By Double D's Dumpsters Team · Published May 4, 2026 · 3 min read · Category: What to Know Before You Book

St. Johns County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Florida, and the construction activity shows it. New builds, major renovations, and teardowns are happening across Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine, Nocatee, and the unincorporated corridors between. If you need a roll-off dumpster for a job in SJC, here is what affects your price and how the county's rules work.

The St. Johns County Franchise Fee

St. Johns County requires all construction and demolition debris haulers operating in unincorporated areas to hold a non-exclusive franchise permit under Ordinance 2017-39. That permit requires haulers to remit 10 percent of gross revenues back to the county on a quarterly basis. A properly permitted hauler builds that cost into their pricing. Haulers operating without a county franchise are in violation of the ordinance, and using an unpermitted hauler creates liability for job sites in unincorporated SJC. Double D's Dumpsters holds an active St. Johns County franchise permit, approved by the Board of County Commissioners in October 2025, covering C&D debris collection and transportation throughout unincorporated St. Johns County.

Where Debris Gets Disposed

C&D debris from St. Johns County jobs is processed at St. Marks C&D, located at 1000 St. Marks Pond Blvd, St. Augustine 32095. This is a properly licensed solid waste management facility authorized to receive construction and demolition material from permitted haulers. Clean concrete and block can be separated and recycled at no cost, which is worth doing on any project generating significant concrete volume.

Operating Hours in St. Johns County

The SJC franchise ordinance requires haulers to operate only between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM Monday through Saturday, and 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Sundays and county holidays. Deliveries and pickups outside those windows are not permitted under the franchise agreement. Plan delivery and pickup timing accordingly if your project schedule is tight.

Sizing, Materials, and Rental Periods

St. Johns County jobs run a wide range, from single-family renovations in older St. Augustine neighborhoods to large new construction in Nocatee and the World Golf Village corridor. The sizing guide covers every common project type. For accepted and prohibited materials, see what can and cannot go in a dumpster. Standard rental periods apply to all St. Johns County deliveries.

Delivery Coverage

St. Johns County service coverage includes St. Augustine, St. Augustine Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach, Nocatee, Fruit Cove, Julington Creek, Switzerland, Palm Valley, and surrounding unincorporated areas.
