Over the last year I’ve received a lot of questions about residential trash pickup. Every area will be different between regulations, competition and equipment but hopefully this video gives you insight into the world of a small trash start up! 1 on 1 Calls - calendly.com/lcsanitation

Nailed it on it being relaxing. People think hauling trash is the worst job ever from the outside looking in but I look forward to our residential route. Our first packer was only a 12k investment. If you buy smart and don't go nuts a packer is a game changer for ya. Thanks again for being transparent.

I was in the retail route sales business for 25 years. I totally understand what its like being "married" to your business. As the years progressed working 6 days a week withour vacation, I developed a relationship with a couple of school teachers that wanted to earn money during their summer break and occasional weekends. They were responsible and could be trusted with my business. This gave me coverage a couple times a year for respite from the business.... if you don't, it will definitely be your downfall. GREAT CONTENT!

Seriously considering starting with a couple roll-offs early next year. I’m in rural north Florida in a growing market with plenty(for now) of new construction going on. Not looking good for the residential side of it here, but I’m getting excited about the prospect of starting the roll-off business to supplement my income from my regular job. I work the graveyard shift, so that leaves my mornings and/or evenings open to deliver and pick up. Your videos have been inspiring. Thanks for sharing your experiences and tips!

I have a Boxtruck with a lift gate, mostly did moving jobs and junk removal, due to injuries I’m looking to go the residential trash route, providing trash bins etc , I would have to roll them on to the truck, and dump each bin and drop them back to the customers, sounds like something that could work? Think I’ll loose on diesel and time , I’ll give it a whirl and let the people know how it goes
