Welcome to THE DUMPSTER RUNNERS NETWORK! Please introduce yourselves and tell us your company name and where you're from. We are going to be taking a deep dive into the world of dumpster. Talking about equipment, marketing, networking, community building, and so much more. We welcome everyone from rookie to master. From aspiring entrepreneur to seasoned veteran of their trade. I hope all of you can take a moment and introduce yourselves. Once that is out of the way we can dive into the wins or pain points each of us is going through. You never know who might be right down the road from you. They can become a GREAT back up resource if your equipment goes down or you're overloaded with work, and if not - maybe you just make a new friend to chat with who shares a similar interest! Make SURE you check out the MAP tab at the top. It will show you roughly where each member is located. It says that it it shows each person as 10 miles off roughly, but I have noticed some people much farther off then I believe they should be. We'll have to check that out and see how it performs over time. FANTASTIC feature for seeing who is close to you though. UTILIZE IT!

What are some of the best FREE strategies you have found for advertising your business? I'll compile a list with information from the best comments. Comment below with the name of the platform and strategy you are using to acquire attention and customers. Resources: 🚀 Instagram / Facebook / Threads Crossposting - I post 5-60 second video clips daily showing various things from drop off and pick up, to maintenance and daily tasks. People like to connect with people they know, and if you show yourself in the content you will 2x-3x the power of each reel. Most of them I mute the audio and post it with some of the included music. 1 Post to Instagram can be cross posted (with linked account) to 3 different social platforms + your story. Thats FOUR places for a potential customer to see your content. Great for a brand builder. BONUS Points if you can tag another company or do a local business collaboration of some sort. -Joe Maxey 🚀 When I'm slow ill drive the truck to run errands. If I need something from Home Depot instead of taking my 1 ton and trailer I'll take the Peterbilt and a dumpster and head to Home Depot. On the flip side you need your rig to be highly noticeable. Pictured below is my new rig. - Tim Wand 🚀 Boots on the ground, cards or door hangers in hand. Gotta talk to people! -Candice Engel
