Incredible Start to Junk Removal

[makingmusicmag]

Hello,

Got the idea last night to “start up” a junk removal business - I have a half tonne with a 6 foot box and charge $95.00 flat rate (dumps here are $40.00 just to dump regardless of weight) so I know it’s low but wanted to test the waters.

Posted an add on Kijiji and got a hit today - 11 garbage bags - told them regardless of how full the truck is it’s $95.00.

The lady ends up asking if I can just transport the garbage bags to her storage unit (one of those sea containers) and says once she sorts through her stuff she’d like me to dispose of it.

So I ended up making $95.00 just to do a 10-minute drive from one location to another - with the possibility of making much much more if she contacts me again.

I understand how lucky I am.

TLDR; I started a junk removal yesterday and made $95.00 in under 30-mins.

This dumping site must be operating on some thin margins.

@zachariahs Dumps are often run / subsidized by the local government as a public utility.

@pinkfreud City dumps in our city can only be used by residents not business.
