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 Schenectady list
Four of the 23 are based in Schenectady itself and the other 19 run out to it from nearby towns. On rating alone it is Lance's Hauling at 5.0; on weight of evidence it is COUNTY WASTE - CLIFTON PARK, with 1,177 reviews. Six of the 23 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 Schenectady, NY?
Updated regularly. Based on 20 published prices from 6 of the 23 companies serving Schenectady.
| Size | Median price | Range | Included weight | Included days | Companies |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 yard | $399 | $350 to $479 | ask | 7 days | 3 |
| 15 yard | $470 | $200 to $520 | 1 ton | 7 days | 4 |
| 20 yard | $499 | $435 to $550 | 1 ton | ask | 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. The gap between this number and the invoice is almost always weight. Ask what allowance the price includes and what a ton over it costs.
What dumpster sizes can you rent in Schenectady?
11 sizes are listed by companies serving Schenectady:
- 6 yd1 company
- 8 yd5 companies
- 10 yard dumpster10 yd11 companies
- 12 yd8 companies

Drawn to scale against each other. The 20, 30 and 40 share a footprint. All that changes is wall height, so driveway space rules out fewer sizes than people expect.
| Size | Typical job |
|---|---|
| 10–15 yard | Household cleanout, single-room remodel, small yard job |
| 20 yard | Roofing tear-off, whole-home cleanout, small construction |
| 30–40 yard | New build and commercial work. Many residential streets can't take one |

Common questions about dumpster rental in Schenectady, NY
- How much is a 20 yard dumpster in Schenectady?
- Companies serving Schenectady that publish a price list a median of $499 for a 20-yard, against $500 across New York. That is a starting price. Weight over the included allowance is billed separately.
- Who has the cheapest dumpster in Schenectady?
- The lowest published starting price among companies serving Schenectady is $200. 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 Schenectady?
- Mid-Atlantic Waste ranks first in Schenectady on our Index Score, at 97 out of 100 on review volume, rating, published pricing and reachability, weighted. On other measures: Lance's Hauling holds the highest Google rating among companies serving Schenectady, at 5.0 across 711 reviews. COUNTY WASTE - CLIFTON PARK has the most reviews, 1177 at 3.7. Damon’s Rolloffs lists the lowest published starting price at $200. 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 Schenectady?
- We list 23 independently owned companies serving Schenectady, 4 of them based in town. National carriers and brokers are not included.
- What size dumpsters are available in Schenectady?
- Companies serving Schenectady list 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 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 Schenectady?
- The median published 20-yard price in Schenectady is $499, essentially the same as the $500 median across New York. 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 does a 10-yard dumpster cost in Schenectady?
- In Schenectady: a 10-yard runs a median of $399 (3 companies), a 15-yard runs a median of $470 (4 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 Schenectady?
- The most common listed rental period among Schenectady companies is 7 days, from the 11 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.
- Which dumpster companies are based in Schenectady?
- 4 of the 23 companies we list are based in Schenectady 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.
