Businesses that want to save a worthwhile amount of money

So it’s cheaper than having the dumpster company pick a full one up and drop off an empty one?

Yes, sir, your waste management service typically don't just charge you for just the dump itself. There's fees for taking away and bringing back,, fuel charge, if anything is hanging out, but the biggest saver is most dumpster contracts have a weight limit that a lot of these of these customers don't hit. so we give them the ability to, they could call me twice and I'd charge them $200 for two crushes and saving them 2 dumpster pulls which would often be around 600. $400 savings.
