30+ Year Dumpster Rental Operation With Loyal Contractor Base
Business Description
Rare opportunity to acquire a recession-proof, high-profit dumpster rental and trash-hauling company serving the booming Charlotte, NC area and surrounding regions. With over 30 years of brand reputation, a loyal customer base, long-standing vendor relationships, and a rapidly growing waste-management market, this business offers a new owner immediate revenue, highly reliable operations, and unlimited expansion potential.
Business Overview
Founded in 1991, this well-established hauling and dumpster rental company has become one of the most trusted and dependable service providers within a 60-mile radius of the Charlotte metro and parts of Columbia, SC. Known for its fast delivery, dependability, and zero-delay service, the company has earned a reputation that keeps contractors, businesses, and homeowners returning year after year.
Operating out of two strategic standalone facilities (one fully owned), the business maintains a fleet of trucks, dumpsters, and specialized equipment - everything needed to run a streamlined, profitable hauling operation. With strong Google visibility and decades of repeat customers, the company is perfectly positioned as a leading go-to provider in its market.
Key Financial Highlights
- Annual Revenue: $2.95M over the last 3 years, stable and consistent.
- SDE: $742K
- Margins: ~45% average gross profit margin, reflecting efficient operations.
- Over $900K worth of inventory (dumpsters, vehicles)
Operational Details
The business runs as a smooth, efficient hauling operation offering delivery, pickup, disposal, and turnaround of trash dumpsters. With 9 dependable employees (plus the owner’s active oversight), the team ensures consistent service that keeps projects moving without delays.
Two facilities support the operation:
Charlotte Area Facility (Owned): ~2,100 sq ft — truck & dumpster storage, tools, operations hub
Lexington, SC Facility (Financed): ~2,400 sq ft — additional storage, strong visibility, and convenient highway access
Systems continue to modernize with dumpster tracking, automated billing, and a strong digital footprint that keeps leads flowing. The current owner is active but enjoys flexibility and vacations, thanks to a reliable, long-tenured staff who will stay through transition.
Reason for Sale
The owner is 63 years old, ready to retire after 36 successful years of building and growing the company.
Growth Opportunities
- Expand into roll-out cans and front-load truck routes for recurring commercial accounts
- Add recycling services, an industry with rising demand and strong upside
- Hire a dedicated sales representative to aggressively target contractors and industrial waste generators
- Increase residential marketing for home cleanouts, renovations, and seasonal demand
Ideal Buyer Profile
This opportunity is perfect for an entrepreneur or operator looking to enter, or expand within, the high-margin, recession-resistant waste and hauling industry. A buyer with determination and growth ambition can unlock massive long-term upside in a market with consistent demand and very little volatility.
If you’re seeking a profitable, steady business with a loyal customer base, decades of brand equity, and multiple avenues for expansion, this is the opportunity to secure long-term wealth for your family.
