In this episode of The Route to Revenue, Ben and Mike sit down with Tyler LeBlanc of Delaware Trash Can Cleaning to break down how he grew from a single trailer setup to over 1,200 recurring customers and multiple trucks in just a few years.

Tyler shares the real path behind scaling a bin cleaning business from early bootstrapping decisions and equipment upgrades to hiring his first employee and building toward a third truck. The conversation dives deep into trailer vs PTO setups, preventative maintenance, recurring revenue stability, and what it really takes to move from owner-operator to business owner.

If you're building a recurring revenue home service business whether in bin cleaning, lawn care, pest control, or pressure washing, this episode offers practical insights from someone actively scaling in the field.
