How to read the Shelby list

The list splits One in town and 10 travelling in. American Dumpster Co. is both the best-rated and the most-reviewed of them, at 5.0 across 189 Google reviews. Seven of the 11 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 Shelby, NC?

Updated regularly. Based on 22 published prices from 7 of the 11 companies serving Shelby.

Size	Median price	Range	Included weight	Included days	Companies
15 yard	$388	$250 to $425	1.5 tons	7 days	6
20 yard	$425	$375 to $495	1.5 tons	7 days	6
30 yard	$623	$530 to $650	1.25 tons	7 days	4
40 yard	$775	$600 to $775	ask	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.
