Startup cost: $500 - $10k

Low-end costs include basic tools like gloves, trash bags, and a used pickup truck or trailer. Marketing can be done through free platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. Essential costs are minimal, focusing on transportation and basic safety gear. High-end costs involve purchasing a new or well-maintained truck, professional-grade tools, insurance, and permits. Marketing might include paid ads on Google or social media. Optional costs could be a website, branded uniforms, and advanced equipment like a dumpster or compactors. Hidden fees might include vehicle maintenance, fuel, and disposal fees at waste facilities. Online communities often highlight that while starting costs can be low, expenses can increase with scale and professionalism.
