Just curious — do you guys handle your own vinyl lettering, or do you take it to a vinyl shop? 🤔 And what about wraps — do you have a pro do it, or produce it yourself? I’ve seen wraps around here going for about $5K, and even lettering’s not cheap 💸. I’ve used StickerMule and Lettering.com to help my son out before, but it still added up fast. So I’m wondering — did you buy your own vinyl machine and start doing it in-house, or do you outsource everything? I’ve seen one local guy who clearly used stencils and spray paint — quick, sure, but it looks… well, cheap 🫠. I know it’s “just a dumpster,” but branding matters — that two-tone look or clean logo really helps you stand out from the pack 🟡🔴. I really like the job Joe did with his dumpsters — that raccoon logo is a nice touch 🦝👏. There’s also a guy in Josh’s network (forget his name) who’s got a rhino logo — I think his company’s called Rhino Solutions — and it really works. Makes me think I might need to come up with a mascot myself. 🦏💡 I want to make it simple, memorable, and not too busy — something that sticks without looking cluttered. Any suggestions for a mascot or logo concept for Pro Dumpster Rentals? I’m open to creative ideas that still look professional and tough. Also, John at Same Day Dumpsters out in Salt Lake City has a great setup — mixing orange, baby blue, and white trucks. It’s clean, fresh, and stands out without looking overdone. 🎨🚛 Even the big dogs like Republic and Waste Management keep it simple with one centered logo — but since every dumpster’s a rolling billboard, I still want something that pops without breaking the bank 💥. Maybe I’m overthinking it, but I’m chasing that sweet spot between cost and brand impact. Anyone else wrestle with the same decision? 🙏

I keep hearing that people have been dead, and that's not JUST in the dumpster industry. I've heard it from a very well established tile installer. I heard it from a buddy of mine who repairs sprinkler systems. I just read a post about issues with getting paid at another mans storage lot. How are things looking for you in your local market? Are you experiencing a slow down? Is it business as usual? Slammed as can be? If you're slow; what has been your primary focus for digging yourself out of the hole? If you're slammed; what has been the greatest driver of growth and success? Personally I'm in a weird spot. Year over year I'm crushing it, but if you look at 2025 as a whole, this has been my worst month BY FAR. So it's hard to say what's going on in the world based on my experience. Let's hear from you guys on what you're seeing!

I know this topic has been covered before, but I thought I would share my personal perspective and noticeable differences we have felt by changing the color and branding. •Sorry this went longer than I expected. I’m sure like most we didn’t know anything about the dumpster business before jumping in. We were lucky enough to get ahold of a lightly used trailer and 5 dumpsters that were all black. Not giving it a thought we placed our freshly made logo on them. Quickly identifying that that wasn’t enough. Our logo design doesn’t have our contact info so we added block letters saying Rent Me and our phone number. We thought it was great. We heard people saying that they saw us but most of them already knew us. We kept adding a few more dumpsters and slowly getting them lettered up to look the same just keeping them moving was our focus. We all are very proud of what we’ve achieved no matter what our size is. We normally don’t look at ourselves from the outside looking in but we know what is seen from our accountability mirror right. I found myself thinking that it’s not too dirty, it’s just a little bit of rust. I know I’m not the only one. Historically thinking, did any one of us ever think we would say out loud “man that’s a good looking dumpster” Nope! But I bet you have now. 😂 influencers like @Joseph Maxey keep stepping up and pushing their branding over the top and looking damn good as they do I must say. I had an opportunity to do just that for Freedom Dumpsters Va this year. We were facing a total overhaul and I couldn’t see a better time to do so. We did a color change and a logo overhaul without changing the logo. Our yard location hasn’t changed but our dumpsters went from black to blue and we incorporated what we call the bullet on the front leading edge of each side. The new blue pops and the white background makes our logo stand out proud. After a very nerve-racking period getting through the change I don’t regret anything. Don’t be afraid to paint your top rails or make your dumpsters two tone. Stand out in the sea of other dumpsters. Little things really do make a difference.

Hey, I'm Justin Hilliard, I'm new to the group and i recently just started my roll off dumpster journey in West Tn. I do junk removal and have 20 yd roll off dumpsters. Not having a ton of business. I'm paying for ads on google and yelp. I'm also marketing on FB. Anyone have any connections in this area to help mentor me into growing my business?

Good Morning Beautiful People, I'm considering doing a weekly collaborative study of the 100M Dollar Series. I have all three of the primary books + the specialty playbooks in my library, as well as plenty of physical copy codes to send out for the 100M Money Models books. I can do a file share for the Playbooks, and the regular books have free audio books available as well as physical copies being easy to obtain on Amazon and such. If you join you would receive a FREE physical copy of $100M Dollar Money Models by Alex Hormozi, as well as digital links and copies to the other books in the series. In my mind I see the format going something like this: 🎯 Predetermined section to be covered so we can read/listen to segment in advance. 🎯 Virtual Meet Up on _______ day of the week at ______ time. 🎯 Collaborative conversations around the topic and how to implement in our business. 🎯 Archived videos of the joint video conference call so you can catch up if you miss a week. 🎯 Weekly accountability and how to advance your marketing strategies. This would likely go on for 6-12 months on a weekly bases. My intension is NOT to be teaching. It is to be organizing and collaborating. I am not some master who can solve all your problems. I do know a thing or two and may be able to help, but I would love to learn from those willing to share their experiences as well. This would likely require some level of financial contribution. I don't have an exact figure yet, but it would be very minimal. Basically just enough to make it worth my energy and resource's to organize. I also feel like some amount of skin in the game would help keep people accountable and coming back which is valuable in it's own right. I'm also entertaining the idea of making it a paid course, but if you meet the groups predetermined metrics throughout the time to run it we'd refund your money. I want people who WANT to grow, who NEED accountability, and who will IMPLEMENT and SHARE their experiences with the group. If you can book 1 more dumpster due to the knowledge we learn and share together then it would faaaaaaaaar exceed the cost to join.
