    great video thanks for all the info and appreciate the transparency. I agree that is important the factor in labor to figure your true prophet even if you're running the dumpsters yourself because eventually you just want to pay someone to do all the deliveries. A question though I notice that you have two roll off trailers do you actually need two roll-off trailers for 14 dumpsters or was one originally bought as a backup from the old owner

    • @Lifes_Apprentice
      @Lifes_Apprentice  4 роки тому +1

      the reason is for a backup. it will come in real handy when i get another truck. id say one truck could handle 20 dumpsters depending on the day but some days are just super busy and other days theres nothing

    How many dumpsters do you own total? Or at least at the time of this video how many did you own to create 39 sales? I'm wondering what type of volume I can expect if I start out with three roll-off dumpsters. I have budgeted enough money to purchase the trailer and three roll-off dumpsters without a loan. I will use the subsequent income to purchase more dumpsters in the future unless it looks like it's going to be worth it to go ahead and buy a couple more up front.

    • @Lifes_Apprentice
      @Lifes_Apprentice  4 роки тому

      i own 16 now at the time of the video it was 13 or 14... im figuring an average turnover rate of 10 days per dumpster which means ill sell every dumpster 3 times a month. when you have a few dumpsters and business is going good you can try and turn them faster to make more profit. it sounds like you have a good plan in order. go get it!!!
