- If you're in the dumpster business, you'll definitely want to watch as I explain why renting concrete dumpsters is key for your success. I break down the benefits and advantages of offering these specialized dumpsters, including increased profits, diversity and customer satisfaction.
It doesn't matter if you're new in business or looking to expand your current services, this video is a must-watch for any dumpster business owner.
This guy is a prime example of excellent customer service and being very personable. Just subscribed, I'm in the same business
Thank You. I appreciate the compliment. Welcome to the channel brother, I hope you find it useful my friend.
First video I’ve seen on your channel. So far I love how you communicate with customers clearly. And able to give them a visual and understanding of expectations. I like how you work sir.
Thank You Alvin. I believe in all things that communication is 🔑 Thank You for checking out the channel. Welcome to the show my friend.
Very interesting John that 3o% of your rentals are concrete, dirt and sod dumpsters. Very consistent with what I do. I'm at just over 35% of my total rentals are for concrete, dirt and sod dumpsters.
These dumpsters are how we built, and carved out our own unique market within my service area. Concrete dumpsters are a key ingredient in helping us scale. Thanks for watching Dana.
Love the channel man!
Very much appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and watch some of my videos.
Lol, you're awesome. I love you man
Much appreciated.
Awesome
Thanks Guys. Very much appreciate all the support 👊🏾
Concrete I can recycle, but dirt and brick are subject to regular dump fees in southern California. I can usually find someone to take clean dirt for fill dirt, but not bricks.
I heard that from someone else saying that bricks were a little tricky to get rid of. Every market is a little different for sure.
Love the channel , for clarity , concrete dirt and sod container is picking up all of one thing or can they mix those together in the same container without problems ??
Love the videos! Just curious of what your max lifting capacity is on your hooklift? We do 12,15,20 yard dumpsters but arent doing dirt or concrete at the moment but have been thinking of doing it in smaller dumpsters .
This hook is rated at 16,000lbs lift capacity. Our entire business model is based around smaller dumpsters with shorter rental times.
Man I am a contractor and I cant tell you how many times I have seen the dumpster truck with the front axle in the air because of over loaded dumpster ! When the dumpster guy brings a 30 yard container and says if your putting brick and concrete in it , it can only be half full ! Then 5:30 the next morning he’s there and the dumpster is crowned with debris and he can’t pick it ! Thats why I bought a dump truck and only let my guys load it !
For the guys like yourself that can afford to buy another truck dedicated to hauling just dirt and aggregate, I think that's the best solution my friend.
Business license for denied today because i brought up renting roll off dumpsters. City worker chick in the admin office said they wouldn't approve a business license if I was going to do that... said they had a contract with the water disposal company
Water disposal company? That's a new one that I haven't heard of before. I'm curious to what the rational behind that is.... If you don't mind me asking, what city and state are you in my man?
There are certain cities in our area that have waste management contracts and because of those, other companies are not allowed to do business there.
We are considering getting our own "concrete" dumpster. What's the average tonage you see in yours? Concern is that at 5 CY that could be 7.5 tons which might strain my truck. We have a Chevy 6600 similar to yours. We also have the palfinger lift as well.
Hey guys nice work John
When you do Concrete or sod and dirt is no charge for the dump so the dumpster is more to rent for a customer?
No... just because I dump their dirt, sod or concrete for no charge doesn't mean they don't get charged. In my market those are some of the best rentals out here. I price my services and rental based off of the value I provide... not based off my costs. There's a big difference.
Nice video, with multiple drop offs/swap at one location do you reset the price for every new one or discount.
No discounts ever! When I go to multiple concerts or book multiple flights for my family they don't give me a discount. I refer to that as "Death by Discount." Your customers will continue to ask for discounts as long as you keep giving them. My business model is built on customers paying full price and not discounts. Great question Alex.... I see this asked too frequently on FB groups and I feel there's a lot of misleading advice being thrown around.
@@samedaydumpster great to know keep bringing those awesome videos
What’s the length on these dumpsters and how deep are they? I have 4 15 yard bins and I’m thinking about picking a 7 yard bin up.
What's the typical tonnage on dirt or concrete with your dumpsters? We just use a 10 yd reinforced, but need to be very careful in terms of our weight.
Our sweet spot is 8,000lbs. We really watch these guys closely or they will get carried away very quickly.
Hey there. Greatings from the Great Lakes! Can you tap into trailer rentals versus dumpster rentals? My brother and I are excited to start a new venture in the rental market.
As in, car haulers, enclosed trailers...
Not sure I would be much help on this guys, I don't rent trailers like that out so I haven't looked into how that market works and what guys can charge. Wish I was more help.
I appreciate you checking out the channel.
I'm working on getting or makeing the same concrete dumpsters with your design. How much does a full concrete load weights with your dimensions?
It can vary depending on how broken ups the concrete is and a few other variables. But 8,000 - 11,000lbs is a pretty good number for your question.
Thanks John! Love your videos very informative.
How would you handle if for whatever reason someone didn’t listen and did fill above line when dealing with regular debris ? I understand with concrete etc because it’s heavier. Thank you.
We won't haul any overloaded dumpster plain and simple. Are you asking about if the debris is over the top type overloaded? Or are you asking about if it's overloaded by weight?
@@samedaydumpster first thank you for your reply, as I hope to start a business in the best future. I meant overloaded by top. You would not take it until they fix it ? Wouldn’t that also lead to them having to get another container for that excess? I guess it could go many ways after that. I appreciate your time sir.
@@danm3346 100% correct. We communicate with them that will will in no situation haul an overloaded dumpster. It’s not safe, or legal in our state to do so. They are required to fix it before we haul it.
even with the 7 yard dumpster packed with concrete, rock, or dirt it doesn’t get too heavy?
Any size dumpster has the potential of getting crazy overloaded if you let the customer start doing whatever they want. We still have good communication with every client and explain what out limits are. Great question, BTW
How thick is the steel on that dumpster? If a bobcat drops in big chunks of concrete, can it dent the floor?
1/4" steel on the floor, walls, nose cone and tailgate. Its pretty beefy.
Do you give your customers rules on what they cannot do with your dumpsters like washing out concrete in your dumpsters or if they damaged them is there an extra charge I'm looking to get f600 and getting into this line of work and put somebody in my dump truck while I try to get this business started
Absolutely!!!! If you don't communicate with the clients at time of drop-off you will get absolutely worked by whoever rents your dumpsters. Communication is key in this business.
what taillights are equipped with that truck?
Honestly I have no idea. Reach out to the guys over at Ruble Truck Sales, they did the build for me and they sourced all the electrical parts. Jeff is a great contact over there.
I'd like to know where you get your concrete dumpsters and what size they are
7 cubic yard size, and we build them here in Salt Lake City.
What the max ton you carry with your concrete dumpsters. Are your concrete dumpster 10yds? What's the dimension?
Just over 4 tons. The one in this video is 12’ L x 8’ W x 2’ T
His dumpsters look to be about 4 to 5 yards ish
What's your GVW. I have a f600 hook lift with GVW @ 22500.
@@samedaydumpsterTrying to get into this market and doing research. Given your dimensions and due to the slants on the inside, it looks like your bins are actually around 5 cubic yards on the inside?
That would seem safe/reasonable given wet soil can weigh as much as 3000lb per cubic/yrd.
Just trying to get my numbers right before I have any custom cans built.
My question is your runing a 6500 with 10 yard dirt bin how do u not do wheelies, in Canada most ppl run hino 338/L7 33gvwr with multilift xr10 hooks we go sky high
These aren't 10 cy bins. They are smaller and built specifically for the weight rating of our trucks. Ya'll do some crazy type trucking up in Canada in the oil fields for sure!!
So these Crete bins are 7yd ?
I have a Hino 338 in kelowna bc
Do you allow concrete washout with your concrete dumpsters?
No sir! I don't do any concrete washouts. That's a whole different ballgame. Not interested in that aspect of this business at all.
what size is your concrete dumpster? 10 yds? and do you have them made with thicker floors and walls?
The one in this video is a 7 cubic yard size dumpster. Yes, we build them with 1/4" floors and walls, God only knows what beating these dumpsters will take. Thanks for watching my friend.
@@samedaydumpsterWhat kind of tonnage will that net? A range will suffice, thanks!
You've mentioned that these are custom dumpsters but i have seen others that look kind of like them. I think they are 10 yarders? How much does it cost you to have these ones fabricated?
I'm sure many dumpsters look alike - What I'm referring to when I say they are custom built, Is that these dumpsters are made specifically for our trucks, GVW, length, wheelbase and weight. That's all, not that I invented this type of dumpster my friend.
@@samedaydumpster Sorry. I don't think I was being clear. I wasn't being critical of your dumpster at all. I was just asking how much it cost you to fabricate each one. And if they were 10 yards as well? I didn't mean to suggest I was arguing with you about "inventing" your bin bro. My bad if it came across that way.
@@ontariodrone379 Brother, no offense was taken at all. Everything’s good. These are about 7cy size dumpsters that we sell for $6,500
How many employees and vehicles/trailers do you have?
(2) trucks. (1) apprentice. (77) dumpsters.
How much are these normally scaling at?
So many variable.... Concrete? Dirt? Sod? Wet dirt or dry dirt? How broken up is the concrete? The more broken up the lighter it will be... But typically anywhere on the light side from 4,000lbs to the heavier extreme side of 10,000lbs. I wish I could dial those numbers in better for you brother, but not knowing exactly what you'll be hauling that's the best estimates I can give.
Thanks for taking the time to watch the channel.
Hoe many yards is your concrete dumpster ?
7cy
