How to read the Reno list

Four of the 8 are based in Reno itself and the other 4 run out to it from nearby towns. High Desert Dumpster Rental holds the best rating at 5.0, while Reno Rock Transport has the most reviews behind it with 143. Two of the 8 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 Reno, NV?

Updated regularly. Only 2 of the 8 companies serving Reno publish a rate, too few to quote a local median, so the figures below are statewide.

Across Nevada, a 20-yard dumpster runs a median of $447, with most quotes between $399 and $480 (10 companies). Reno should land near that unless it's far from a landfill, which pushes prices up. The reliable way to find out is to call two or three companies on the list above and ask each for the base price, the included tonnage, and the per-ton overage.

What the Reno dumpster market looks like

4 of the 8 are based in Reno itself. The others run in from as far as 21 miles out, which is fine for a drop but tells you who is closest when a swap-out goes sideways.

The Reno market has 466 reviews across it, and 5 companies are sitting at 4.9 or better. Reno Rock Transport accounts for 143 of them.

25% of the companies here put a number on their own site. The other 6 want the call first, which is worth knowing before you plan your afternoon.

The sizes this town actually stocks are the 10-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 3.7. High Desert Dumpster Rental is the one at the top, on 41 reviews rather than a handful.

Companies here quote about 7 days in the rental before daily charges start. Ask what the extra day costs before you need one.

Included tonnage around Reno lands near 2 tons. Going over is where a cheap quote stops being cheap, so weigh the job honestly.

7 of the 8 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.

The largest container serving Reno is the 40-yard, and Empire Waste Systems and Sims Metal - Sparks, Nevada list one. Book that size ahead rather than the week you need it.

The cheapest published anything in Reno is a 10-yard at $399, from Nick's Property Cleanup & Hauling - Reno/Sparks. That is the floor on this page, not the price of the size you probably need.

Do I have to use a company from outside Reno?
