Overview
What this business looks like
Trash bin cleaning is the ultimate "no one wants to do this" business -- which makes it incredibly easy to sell. Bins get disgusting, attract pests, and smell terrible. You clean them on trash day when they are already on the curb, and customers pay $5-15 per bin per month. The beauty is the recurring revenue: sign up 100 bins and you have $500-1,500/month showing up like clockwork.
