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 Stamford list
Two have a yard in Stamford; the remaining 28 cover it from somewhere else. Colcan Carting holds the best rating at 5.0, while Residential Waste Systems | Garbage & Recycling Pick Up has the most reviews behind it with 483. Five of the 30 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 Stamford, CT?
Updated regularly. Based on 22 published prices from 5 of the 30 companies serving Stamford.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | $400 | $375 to $447 | 0.75 tons | 7 days | 3 |
| 15 yard | $503 | $475 to $547 | 0.75 tons | 7 days | 4 |
| 20 yard | $639 | $480 to $650 | 1 ton | 7 days | 5 |
| 30 yard | $795 | $610 to $795 | ask | 7 days | 3 |
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. The gap between this number and the invoice is almost always weight. Ask what allowance the price includes and what a ton over it costs.

Common questions about dumpster rental in Stamford, CT
- How much is a 20 yard dumpster in Stamford?
- Companies serving Stamford that publish a price list a median of $639 for a 20-yard, against $550 across Connecticut. That is a starting price. Weight over the included allowance is billed separately.
- Who has the cheapest dumpster in Stamford?
- The lowest published starting price among companies serving Stamford is $365. Booking a size down to reach a lower price usually backfires. A second haul costs more than the size you skipped.
- Who is the best dumpster rental company in Stamford?
- Grizzly Junk Pros ranks first in Stamford on our Index Score, at 99 out of 100 on review volume, rating, published pricing and reachability, weighted. On other measures: Colcan Carting holds the highest Google rating among companies serving Stamford, at 5.0 across 77 reviews. Residential Waste Systems | Garbage & Recycling Pick Up has the most reviews, 483 at 4.9. The right yard depends on the job. A weekend cleanout and a six-week build rarely want the same company.
- Are there many dumpster companies in Stamford?
- We list 30 independently owned companies serving Stamford, 2 of them based in town. National carriers and brokers are not included.
- What size dumpsters are available in Stamford?
- Companies serving Stamford list 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, 25, 30, 40 yard containers. The 20-yard covers the middle of the range. Go down to a 10 for heavy material, up to a 30 or 40 when the job produces bulk instead of weight.
- Is dumpster rental expensive in Stamford?
- The median published 20-yard price in Stamford is $639, 16% above the $550 median across Connecticut. Most of the difference between towns is haul distance to the landfill and what that landfill charges per ton, so a company one town over can quote noticeably less for the same container.
- How much is a 10-yard dumpster in Stamford?
- In Stamford: a 10-yard runs a median of $400 (3 companies), a 15-yard runs a median of $503 (4 companies), a 30-yard runs a median of $795 (3 companies). Ordering one size up costs less than a second haul, and far less than a swap-out halfway through the job.
- How long can you keep a dumpster in Stamford?
- The most common listed rental period among Stamford companies is 7 days, from the 13 that publish one. Extra days are usually billed at a daily rate. Most companies will collect early at no extra charge, so book the shorter period and call when you finish.
- Are there dumpster companies based in Stamford?
- 2 of the 30 companies we list are based in Stamford itself; the rest are within 25 miles and typically serve it. Companies a few towns over hold the same permits and often quote the same or less, so there is no reason to rule them out on address alone.
