Nice set up, good luck with it it is a beauty! Put wheel simulators on it they are cheep and look great

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Thank you very much, what are wheel simulators?

Hello - wondering why you decided to pivot to roll-offs when you were pretty adamant about keeping it simple with the 4 dump trailers?

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

I feel better about someone driving the roll off truck as it’s super simple to back up compared to a trailer.

[@y2kjorgeavila]

No truck required to start this game. Use ur car then the wife's van LOL. then up scale to a affordable truck put up side walls' then a trailer/Dump trailer. This GAME/hauling has so much to OFFER😀

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

I agree man

[@oncalldumpsters]

Congratulations man - nice move - I hope to move to roll off truck this season too!

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Thanks man and best wishes to you! I am excited.

Good luck in 2023 from h&h property services

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Thank you very much and best wishes to you as well.

Depending on the landfill, they will charge per ton on roll off's vs per trailer size. The wireless remote will be more convenient.

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Yea I was per ton with the trailers, and will stay per ton with the roll off.

[@Benchmark-JunkRemoval]

Do you still recommend starting with one dump trailer or should a person go right into rolloff?

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

I definitely still recommend starting within your means, and to me thats 1 dump trailer. A roll off setup is just too expensive for me to justify someone starting with it.

[@jayyheat855]

i have a really great question what kind of truck best suits this business? Mabe even alternative solutions to work around not having a truck in the begging I have been saving for a similar business model ! Love the videos so far I’m watching all them from beginning to end there’s is so much good honest advice and information your providing especially for young people trying to one day build a business just like you💪🏽👏🏽

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Thank you man best wishes and I have a chevy 2500 and I think that is the best for this business

[@Subi_doo]

250/2500 3/4 ton is the smallest truck that would work well without being over worked. 1/2 ton will not do. Keep in mind your GVWR. You can not run a 14k trailer if your have most 1 ton trucks legally. Most dump trailer are rated at 14k for a 14’ trailer. I’m sure you can get smaller dumpsters, 6x10 and 7x12, but they really aren’t a huge demand and they don’t have a lot of payload available.

[@andrewslagle1974]

@@Subi_doo We de rate our trailers to 12 k with our dually trucks they are reg cab so they are light and in nys where i am as long as we are not over 26k combined your ok.

[@blakebraboy6909]

Can you do a video about rather or not you give friends/family a discount if so, how much and how do you decide the discount amount?

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Thats a good topic, and yes I will make a video soon about it

[@mycreditrevamp]

Can you do this business successfully if you have a mid size truck? My truck only tows up to 7500lbs.

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Yes, I know a guy out here that is doing pretty well with a tacoma.

[@Subi_doo]

Once you go “roll off bins” your just like everyone else out there doing the business. I’m going to be structuring my business with Dump trailers and branding as a specialty service. My trailers won’t, crack, gouge, scrape or damage driveways. I’ve kicked the bin idea around, but ultimate won’t go this route. I’d rather pay more for creating a specialty segment in the quickly saturating dump business area.

[@andrewslagle1974]

Good point there i did not think about the driveway & potential property damage.

[@Ice_clean_man]

How much did it cost to add the roll off set up to the pick up?

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

About $30,000

[@adrianmeza9191]

Do you make the customers sign the contract before taking dump trailer ? Do you email it or message them the contract ?

[@EliteEquipmentRentals]

Yes I do, and I send it to them through text and email

[@adrianmeza9191]

Another question, gooseneck or bumper pull trailers?
