So you load it up like it was a trailer...then winch the bin back on the truck and drive away???

What do you guys think of a truck like this...ASD is the style truck you guys are running?

It says not CDL...is that a state to state deal?

I am looking at starting a roll off business and I am trying to see if anyone thinks that roll off chipper boxes would be a good idea. How much would you be willing to pay? Any advice is welcomed.

my main job is a roll off bin driver. Due tot he fact that i'm dirt poor and could never afford a truck and chipper, i do the following:

the day of the tree job, i call the company i drive for (or i do it myself) and drop off a 20 or 30 cubic yard bin at the clients.

I thin or remove the tree, pile the limbs into the roll off bin and slash it up to compress the pile.

end of the day i pick up the bin and dump it at greeens recycling.

half assed? maybe...but consider this:

- NO overhead for me (except chainsaw gas, chains etc).

- no insurance every month, no vehicle or chipper maintenance

- no outlay of $50,000+ for a truck and chipper/licencing & insurance.

The bins cost me $300 to rent from the company, this is passed along to the customer, but in fact they are actually SAVING money by me doing this method.....(keep in mind i'm a solo worker, no employees to pay for or insure)

works for me.
