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 Chicago list
Six have a yard in Chicago; the remaining 38 cover it from somewhere else. 24-7JUNK.com: Junk Removal & Demolition holds the best rating at 5.0, while GROOT RECYCLING & WASTE - EAST has the most reviews behind it with 804. Seven of the 44 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 Chicago, IL?
Updated regularly. Based on 18 published prices from 7 of the 44 companies serving Chicago.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | $375 | $349 to $395 | ask | 7 days | 3 |
| 15 yard | $410 | $150 to $450 | ask | 6 days | 4 |
| 20 yard | $425 | $349 to $495 | ask | 5 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. 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 Chicago?

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

What the Chicago dumpster market looks like
On a 20-yard, Best Dumpster Rental Naperville publishes $349 and MP Roll-off Services publishes $495. Same size, $146 apart, and both of them serve Chicago.
Companies with a Chicago address: 6. The rest cover the town from up to 25 miles away, so ask about the second trip before you book the first.

You can price 7 of these 44 companies without picking up the phone. The rest quote on the call, so have your size and your dates ready.
A 20-yard here runs $425 at the middle of the market, which is level with Illinois as a whole.
The sizes this town actually stocks are the 10-yard, 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 3.1. 24-7JUNK.com: Junk Removal & Demolition is the one at the top, on 422 reviews rather than a handful.
The usual rental window quoted around Chicago is 5 days. MP Roll-off Services publishes a longer one, which matters if the job slips a week.
Included tonnage around Chicago lands near 3 tons. Going over is where a cheap quote stops being cheap, so weigh the job honestly.
42 of the 44 run a website you can check before calling. The other 2 take the job over the phone, which is common for the smaller yards and says nothing about the work.
No single company dominates Chicago. The biggest book of reviews is 14% of the town's total, so there is genuine choice here rather than one name and a queue.
The cheapest published anything in Chicago is a 15-yard at $150, from Dumpster Rescue LLC. That is the floor on this page, not the price of the size you probably need.

- How much does a 20-yard dumpster cost in Chicago?

- How cheap can a dumpster rental in Chicago get?
- The lowest published starting price among companies serving Chicago is $150. Check what the rate covers before booking on it. A low base price on a three-day period costs more than a higher one on fourteen if the work runs long.
- Which dumpster company should I use in Chicago?
- Best Dumpster Rental Naperville ranks first in Chicago on our Index Score, at 99 out of 100 on review volume, rating, published pricing and reachability, weighted. On other measures: 24-7JUNK.com: Junk Removal & Demolition holds the highest Google rating among companies serving Chicago, at 5.0 across 422 reviews. GROOT RECYCLING & WASTE - EAST has the most reviews, 804 at 4.6. Dumpster Rescue LLC lists the lowest published starting price at $150. Ratings settle as review counts climb, so a 5.0 from a dozen reviews carries less weight here than a 4.7 from three hundred.
- How many dumpster rental companies are in Chicago?
- We list 44 independently owned companies serving Chicago, 6 of them based in town. National carriers and brokers are not included.
- What size dumpster can you rent in Chicago?
- Companies serving Chicago list 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 22, 30, 40 yard containers. Most household jobs here end up in a 20; a 10 is the answer for concrete or a small cleanout, and construction debris takes a 30 or 40.
- Why do dumpsters cost what they do in Chicago?
- The median published 20-yard price in Chicago is $425, essentially the same as the $425 median across Illinois. Local competition moves the number as much as distance does. Towns with several yards in range price tighter than towns served by one.
- What are dumpster prices by size in Chicago?
- In Chicago: a 10-yard runs a median of $375 (3 companies), a 15-yard runs a median of $410 (4 companies). Most of what you buy stepping up a size is extra included weight, and weight is what a heavy load runs out of first.
- How long can you keep a dumpster in Chicago?
- The most common listed rental period among Chicago companies is 7 days, from the 19 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 Chicago?
- 6 of the 44 companies we list are based in Chicago itself; the rest are within 25 miles and typically serve it. Being based in town often means a shorter haul and a cheaper quote, but not always, since what matters is the distance from their yard to the landfill, not the distance to you. Call one of each and compare.
