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 Waukegan list
One of the 21 is based in Waukegan itself and the other 20 run out to it from nearby towns. On rating alone it is ARS Dumpsters of Hawthorn Woods - Local Roll off Dumpster at 5.0; on weight of evidence it is GROOT RECYCLING & WASTE - NORTH, with 1,039 reviews. Nine 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 Waukegan, IL?
Updated regularly. Based on 27 published prices from 9 of the 21 companies serving Waukegan.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | $383 | $359 to $450 | ask | 7 days | 8 |
| 15 yard | $438 | $425 to $455 | ask | 7 days | 6 |
| 20 yard | $490 | $409 to $600 | 3 tons | 7 days | 8 |
| 30 yard | $625 | $589 to $640 | ask | 18.5 days | 4 |
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.

- Is Waukegan cheaper than the rest of Illinois for a dumpster?
- The median published 20-yard price in Waukegan is $490, 15% above the $425 median across Illinois. A quote covers the round trip from the yard to your job to the landfill, so the closest company is not automatically the cheapest one.
