How Kentucky compares
Across the sizes we have enough data for, Kentucky prices run about 4% above the national median, which puts it 17 of 34 states we can rank. A 20-yard here has a median of $440 against $425 nationally.
Most of that difference is disposal cost. Haulers pay a landfill or transfer station by the ton, and that gate rate varies more between regions than anything else in the price. Distance from the yard to the nearest facility does the rest — the further the round trip, the more of the day a truck spends on one job.
Why quotes still vary within Kentucky
Even inside one state the middle half of 20-yard listings spans $400 to $499 — a 23% spread. Two companies a few miles apart can price differently because they use different disposal sites, include different weight allowances, or quote a shorter rental period. A listed price is only comparable once you know what weight and how many days it covers.
What we sampled
These figures come from 12 companies at 15 yards, 18 companies at 20 yards and 11 companies at 30 yards in Kentucky. We don't publish a median for 10-yard or 40-yard here — fewer than 8 companies in the state list a price at that size. Every figure is a price the company publishes itself, recorded with the page it came from and the date it was read.
