How to read the Salem list

The list splits One in town and 4 travelling in. Clemson Waste Services holds the best rating at 5.0, while Griffin Waste Of Anderson & Oconee has the most reviews behind it with 79. One of the 5 publishes 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 Salem, SC?

Updated regularly. Only 1 of the 5 companies serving Salem publishes a rate, too few to quote a local median, so the figures below are statewide.

Across South Carolina, a 20-yard dumpster runs a median of $385, with most quotes between $350 and $469 (29 companies). Salem 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.
