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 Wilmington list
Four have a yard in Wilmington; the remaining 17 cover it from somewhere else. Main Line Junk Removal is both the best-rated and the most-reviewed of them, at 5.0 across 249 Google reviews. Five of the 21 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 Wilmington, DE?
Updated regularly. Based on 14 published prices from 5 of the 21 companies serving Wilmington.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 yard | $455 | $350 to $495 | ask | 10 days | 4 |
| 20 yard | $510 | $400 to $545 | ask | 10 days | 4 |
| 30 yard | $580 | $450 to $600 | ask | 9 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. What lands on top of it is weight over the allowance, any permit the town requires, and days past the rental period. Ask for the all-in figure before you book.
What dumpster sizes can you rent in Wilmington?

Drawn to scale against each other. Footprint stops mattering above the 20, since those sizes differ in depth alone. What limits you is usually overhead wires and the width of the approach.

| 10–15 yard | Household cleanout, single-room remodel, small yard job |
| 20 yard | Roofing tear-off, whole-home cleanout, small construction |

Between them these companies carry 2,004 Google reviews. Main Line Junk Removal holds the biggest book at 249, rated 5.0.
24% of the companies here put a number on their own site. The other 16 want the call first, which is worth knowing before you plan your afternoon.
The sizes this town actually stocks are the 15-yard, the 20-yard, and the 30-yard. Anything outside that is a special order somebody has to drive in.
Ratings here run from 5.0 down to 4.1. Main Line Junk Removal is the one at the top, on 249 reviews rather than a handful.
The usual rental window quoted around Wilmington is 7 days. Simple Waste Disposal publishes a longer one, which matters if the job slips a week.
Included tonnage around Wilmington lands near 1.5 tons. Going over is where a cheap quote stops being cheap, so weigh the job honestly.
20 of the 21 run a website you can check before calling. The other one takes the job over the phone, which is common for the smaller yards and says nothing about the work.
No single company dominates Wilmington. The biggest book of reviews is 12% of the town's total, so there is genuine choice here rather than one name and a queue.
The cheapest published anything in Wilmington is a 15-yard at $350, from Holland Mulch. That is the floor on this page, not the price of the size you probably need.
