Junk Hauling and Pickup

What this job is actually like

Hauling is the simplest version of this work. The load already exists, often already stacked, and the job is getting it onto a trailer and away. The economics are worth understanding though. Every trip carries a fixed cost regardless of how full the trailer is, because the fuel, the drive and the disposal fee at the other end don't scale down for a small load. That's why a single item from a nearby town is straightforward and the same item from thirty miles out needs a conversation. It's also why one visit that clears everything beats three visits that each clear a corner of it.

Worth sorting out before the day

• If more junk is coming, wait and send it all at once. One visit costs less than three.
• Stack it somewhere a truck and trailer can actually reach. A hundred-foot carry takes longer than the loading.
• Pull the paint, fuel and chemicals out of the pile first. One can of solvent holds up an otherwise ordinary load.
• Curbside loads are the quickest thing we do, so if it's already at the road, say so.

Where this is available
