Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

The time involved primarily consisted of the actual collection and disposal of garbage, route planning, and maintenance of equipment. Initially, more time was spent learning the routes and establishing efficient processes. Over time, the hours became more consistent as routines were established. This side hustle is generally part-time, with more time required upfront to get accustomed to the work. Online, people often mention that the physical demands can vary, but the time commitment is relatively stable once the routine is set.
