6" PVC DWV CAP
$17.29 per ea
Based on a single purchase, so this is one transaction rather than a price range.
How much does 6" pvc dwv cap cost?
Contractors are currently paying $17.29 to $17.29 per ea, with a median of $17.29. That range is the middle half of actual invoiced prices over the last 12 months — the cheapest and most expensive outliers are excluded, because one mis-keyed line item shouldn't define what you think a fair price is.
If you're paying above $17.29 per ea, you're in the top quarter of what other contractors pay for the same item — worth a conversation with your supplier.
What drives the price
- Size and material. The single biggest factor, and why we price at this level of detail rather than lumping every cap together.
- Supplier. The same item can differ meaningfully in price between suppliers in the same market, which is a large part of why this range has width at all.
- Order volume. Counter pickups price differently from a scheduled bulk delivery.
- When you bought. Prices drift. This is a trailing 12-month window, so it reflects the current market rather than a historical average.

How we know this
These figures come from real invoices processed through CostCrunch, not list prices or survey data. We normalise each line to a price per unit, exclude the top and bottom 1% as outliers, and we publish what we have for the last 12 months and say how thin it is. Where a figure rests on very few purchases, a single supplier or a single company, that is noted alongside it — those are one buyer's experience rather than a market rate — below that, an average says more about one buyer than about the market.
Check your own invoices against these prices — CostCrunch reads every line item and flags anything above market.
