How much does a dumpster cost in Wausau, WI?
Updated regularly. No company serving Wausau publishes a rate on its website, so the figures below are statewide.
Across Wisconsin, a 20-yard dumpster runs a median of $423, with most quotes between $325 and $500 (30 companies). Wausau should land near that unless it's far from a landfill, which pushes prices up.
