Big NYC opportunity

[anneshy]

There’s a slowdown in trash pick up by the city and tons of people that want the trash removed from their property, and are likely willing to pay $5 or $10 to have it done. A full size pickup truck has about 4 cubic yards of space if the bed is filled to the top of the cab. A 13 gallon kitchen garbage bag is 0.06 cubic yards. One person with a pickup truck could probably make $350 a load before gas and tipping fees assuming two bags per household at $10. Even more if you got a small trailer.

@anneshy Isn't trash and waste management in NYC all mobbed up? I'd be worrying about getting my legs broken for moving in on someone's business.

 

[anneshy]

@belledandy For commercial properties yes it is mobbed up. For residential no

@anneshy Come to New Orleans. I’ve got a pile of cypress branches that’s been sitting in front of my house for 2 months now waiting for pickup.

@anneshy This is literally the plot of an It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode.

 

[anneshy]

@humbl3m1nd No, this is a massive need in a market that’s not being fulfilled. I don’t recall the gang addressing a sanitation shortage.

@anneshy Season 8, episode 2.

@humbl3m1nd OPs next idea will likely be to solve high gas prices by buying gas in bulk and creating their own currency.

@bound4heaven WILD CARD! YEEEEEEEEEEEEE

@anneshy Better yet, you can dress up in a tux and rent a limo. Bonus points if you sing.

 

[anneshy]

@captivating Gas prices are going up so buying large quantities of gasoline and reselling is another option.

 

[biblicalselfdefense]

@anneshy Better yet, combined the two! Door-to-door gasoline sales & trash pickup, the one combination the gang didn't try.

@anneshy Don’t ride in the back though. There will be an exceptional amount of bugs in your teeth

 

[miketexas]

@anneshy That's speculation and buying it at the pump is an inefficient way to do this. If you think oil is going to keep going up, buy oil futures.

@miketexas Shut up science bitch

 

[captivating]

@gagirl1234 Stupid science bitch couldn't even make I more smarter

 

[anneshy]

@miketexas The two parents comments were IASIP references. The trash pickup scheme however is viable

 

[tak]

@anneshy Fill up a garbage bag with diesel and hand it off as you take their garbage bag.

 

[ecign8]

@anneshy Have to factor in dump fees too but could be a good hustle.

@ecign8 $100 a ton
