How this ranking works. Ordered by Index Score, out of 100: review volume 35, rating 25, published pricing 25, contactability 15. Publishing your rates moves you up, and that is the only way up. We don't sell placement. Distances are from each company's listed address, and service areas aren't confirmed with owners, so call to check they cover you. Full method.
How to read the New Haven list
Two have a yard in New Haven; the remaining 35 cover it from somewhere else. On rating alone it is Newtown Junk Removal, LLC at 5.0; on weight of evidence it is Residential Waste Systems | Garbage & Recycling Pick Up, with 483 reviews. Seven of the 37 publish a rate on their own site; the rest quote by phone. That split is typical, and it is why the medians here are worth having.
How much does a dumpster cost in New Haven, CT?
Updated regularly. Based on 17 published prices from 7 of the 37 companies serving New Haven.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 yard | $425 | $160 to $485 | 1 ton | 7 days | 5 |
| 20 yard | $549 | $430 to $639 | 1 ton | 7 days | 5 |
Weight and days are the local medians among companies publishing those terms; "ask" means fewer than two local companies state it. Over the allowance bills per ton, so the weight column is the one that separates two similar prices.
These are rates each company publishes on its own website, collected by our crawler and not confirmed with the owner. They're a starting price for the container and the haul. Weight over the included allowance, permits, and extra rental days are billed on top, so the number you pay is usually higher than the number you see here. Call to get the all-in figure.
