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 Dekalb list
Two have a yard in Dekalb; the remaining 11 cover it from somewhere else. On rating alone it is Big Box Disposal of Aurora at 5.0; on weight of evidence it is GROOT RECYCLING & WASTE - SOUTHWEST, with 685 reviews. Four of the 13 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 Dekalb, IL?
Updated regularly. Based on 11 published prices from 4 of the 13 companies serving Dekalb.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 yard | $400 | $375 to $445 | 2 tons | 6 days | 4 |
| 20 yard | $425 | $399 to $495 | 2 tons | 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. A published rate covers the container and the haul and little else. Overage, permits and extra days are billed separately, so treat these as a floor, not a quote.
