How to read the Lowell list
One of the 39 is based in Lowell itself and the other 38 run out to it from nearby towns. On rating alone it is One Call Junk Haul at 5.0; on weight of evidence it is Zoom Disposal Services, with 1,047 reviews. Six of the 39 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.

What the Lowell dumpster market looks like
The 10-yard quotes here run from $225 at Dumpster Dogs up to $525 at BN Dumpster Rental. That is $300 of daylight between two companies covering the same town. Companies with a Lowell address: 1 of 39. The rest cover the town from up to 25 miles away as the crow flies, so ask about the second trip before you book the first. Between them these companies carry 4,437 Google reviews. Zoom Disposal Services holds the biggest book at 1,047, rated 4.9.
You can price 6 of these 39 companies without picking up the phone. The rest quote on the call, so have your size and your dates ready. A 20-yard runs $722 in the middle here against $620 across Massachusetts, so Lowell prices 16% above the state. Tipping fees and haul distance are usually what is behind a gap like that. The sizes this town actually stocks are the 10-yard, the 15-yard, the 20-yard, and the 30-yard, with 26 of the 39 carrying the 10-yard. Anything outside that is a special order somebody has to drive in.
Ratings here run from 5.0 down to 3.1. One Call Junk Haul is the one at the top, on 695 reviews rather than a handful. The usual rental window quoted around Lowell is 7 days. BN Dumpster Rental publishes a longer one, which matters if the job slips a week. Included tonnage around Lowell lands near 2 tons, read off 20 published rates. Going over is where a cheap quote stops being cheap, so weigh the job honestly.
38 of the 39 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: between them the 39 hold 4,437 reviews. The cheapest published anything in Lowell is a 10-yard at $225, from Dumpster Dogs. That is the floor on this page, not the price of the size you probably need.
What Lowell houses are made of
44,110 housing units sit in Lowell, median build year 1954. Anything that old carries plaster and cast iron, both of which are dense enough that the tonnage allowance runs out before the walls do. Ask what the overage rate is before the skip arrives, not after.
What the weather adds to a Lowell dumpster bill
Lowell gets 47 inches of rain in a normal year, plus 51.9 inches of snow. An open container catches all of it, and the weight goes on the scale ticket with the rest of the load. 149 days a year drop below freezing, and a wet load that freezes is heavier and harder to tip. Tell the hauler if the container has frozen to the driveway before they send a truck. Ask for a tarp if it is going to stand through a wet week. NOAA 1991–2020 normals, from a station 2.4 miles out.

Common questions about dumpster rental in Lowell, MA
- How much is a 20 yard dumpster in Lowell?
- Companies serving Lowell that publish a price list a median of $722 for a 20-yard, against $620 across Massachusetts. That is a starting price. Weight over the included allowance is billed separately.
- Who has the cheapest dumpster in Lowell?
- The lowest published starting price among companies serving Lowell is $225. 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 Lowell?
- Altri’s Junk Removal and Dumpster Rentals ranks first in Lowell on our Index Score, at 99 out of 100 on review volume, rating, published pricing and reachability, weighted. One Call Junk Haul holds the highest Google rating among companies serving Lowell, at 5.0 across 695 reviews. Zoom Disposal Services has the most reviews, 1,047 at 4.9. Dumpster Dogs lists the lowest published starting price at $225. 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 Lowell?
- We list 39 independently owned companies serving Lowell, 1 of them based in town. National carriers and brokers are not included.
- What size dumpsters are available in Lowell?
- Companies serving Lowell list 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 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 Lowell?
- The median published 20-yard price in Lowell is $722, 16% above the $620 median across Massachusetts. 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.
- What are dumpster prices by size in Lowell?
- In Lowell: a 10-yard runs a median of $490 (6 companies), a 15-yard runs a median of $562 (6 companies). Ordering one size up costs less than a second haul, and far less than a swap-out halfway through the job.
- How many days do you get with a dumpster in Lowell?
- The most common listed rental period among Lowell 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.
- Do I have to use a company from outside Lowell?
- 1 of the 39 companies we list are based in Lowell 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.
