Welcome to THE DUMPSTER RUNNERS NETWORK! Please introduce yourselves and tell us your company name and where you're from. We are going to be taking a deep dive into the world of dumpster. Talking about equipment, marketing, networking, community building, and so much more. We welcome everyone from rookie to master. From aspiring entrepreneur to seasoned veteran of their trade. I hope all of you can take a moment and introduce yourselves. Once that is out of the way we can dive into the wins or pain points each of us is going through. You never know who might be right down the road from you. They can become a GREAT back up resource if your equipment goes down or you're overloaded with work, and if not - maybe you just make a new friend to chat with who shares a similar interest! Make SURE you check out the MAP tab at the top. It will show you roughly where each member is located. It says that it it shows each person as 10 miles off roughly, but I have noticed some people much farther off then I believe they should be. We'll have to check that out and see how it performs over time. FANTASTIC feature for seeing who is close to you though. UTILIZE IT!

What to Expect: Spring Training Event March 13-15, 2026
Firstly… Thank you for being here. You just making it to this page shows you have an interest in growing, learning, and collaborating in this industry. While there are a lot of us who like to work together and build each other up, there are plenty more that don’t, and hate the idea of people sharing information and “saturating the market.” In my experience “Collaboration WINS” and there are plenty of big mega corporations we can rally against to take a share of the pie for ourselves and help fellow small business owners succeed and provide a better life for themselves and their families. Now that we got that out of the way let me throw out some house keeping. If you are planning to come to the event here is the important info: Travel and Lodging Information: Airport, Tampa International (TPA) Hotel Block Options: Option A - Current 30 Room Block Comfort Inn and Suites Address: 6206 US-19, New Port Richey, FL 34652 +1 (727) 261-9700 Room Block Link: https://www.choicehotels.com/reservations/groups/SW20B5 Description: Built within the last decade, standard Comfort Inn chain hotel located a short 5 minute walk away from downtown. Large parking lot for big trucks, and parking garage for smaller vehicles. Option B - 38 Total Rooms in Hotel The Hacienda 5621 Main Street, New Port Richey, FL 34652 +17278455621 Room Block (NO Link): Call and reference “Dumpster Runners” for block access. Description: Historic building built in 1927. Catered to many “Hollywood” type celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Babe Ruth, and many more. Renovated and reopened to the public in 2022. Located IN downtown. Not a great option for large truck parking, but would be perfect for someone flying in and looking to experience a little piece of history while also staying close to the action. Tickets Information: We have options for just the “Main Event” which will be a Saturday ONLY pass or the full weekend experience, packed with value, networking, and perks. Let’s break those down for you.
Swap outs!
Question for the group! Customer books a 7-day rental. Fills it up early and needs another. How are you handling these?

QUESTIONS ABOUT COMMERCIAL AUTO INSURANCE
I’ve been digging into COMMERCIAL AUTO INSURANCE here in New Jersey, and man… the numbers are wild. 😅 I’ve seen quotes hit $35,000 PER YEAR for my roll-off truck. Out of curiosity, I checked rates in Fort Worth, Texas — where my son lives — and I’ve gotten quotes as low as $7,000 A YEAR. 🤯 Here’s where the confusion starts:One agent says I can classify under EQUIPMENT RENTALS, and another guy says it MUST be DEBRIS REMOVAL. I’m stuck in the middle because, honestly, both are kinda true. I DO rent the dumpster… but I’m also handling debris. And God forbid something flies out of the can and causes an accident — if I’m misclassified, I could be in real trouble. ⚠️ So I’m just trying to figure out WHAT CLASSIFICATION YOU GUYS USE, and what kind of RATES others in the industry are actually getting. My truck is almost 20 YEARS OLD, and I’m only putting a STATED VALUE OF $50,000 on it. Yet these NJ quotes are coming in sky-high — the cheapest so far is $27,000. It seems like PROGRESSIVE is the only carrier even willing to touch this line of work in New Jersey right now. And of course, New Jersey wants $1.5 MILLION in LIABILITY minimum. 🧾💸 Yeah, I could choose equipment rentals just to save some money… but I have a feeling that could come back to BITE ME HARD if anything ever happened. 😬 Any thoughts? Anyone getting decent rates? Any carriers worth checking out?
