The Dumpster Expo Helps You Beat the Odds
Most Dumpster Businesses Don’t Last
There are thousands of dumpster businesses in the U.S. and new ones are started every day. But according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 20.4% of small businesses fail within the first year, and nearly half don’t make it to year five. Most start with good intentions, some equipment, and a few jobs lined up. But eventually, it hits them: there’s a huge difference between a side hustle and a business that carries the weight of your livelihood.
At some point, you have to make a decision: are you just dipping your toes in the water? Or are you ready to take this seriously and go all in?
The Dumpster Expo is for the ones who are ready to go all in. Those who know no one’s coming to save them. Those who
don't consider failure as an option. It’s where you’ll learn what actually works from seven-figure operators, software builders, industry vendors, and
everyday haulers who’ve already walked the path. If you're building this to last, this is where you build it right.

Learn The Lessons, Avoid The Scars
There are plenty of ways to build a successful dumpster business — but there’s an infinite number of ways to screw it up. The Dumpster Expo brings together operators who’ve already been through the fire. They’ve lost money, missed calls, hired the wrong people, and made decisions that nearly took them out.
Scaling Your Dumpster Operation
From your first trailer to a full fleet, speakers will walk through what it takes to grow sustainably. You’ll learn what to focus on at each stage of growth, how to avoid burnout, and how to build systems that keep you moving forward.
Money, Profit, and Long-Term Success
Getting paid isn’t the same as staying profitable. You’ll learn how to price right, protect your margins, and set up systems that support your business, not just drain it. These talks will help you build something that lasts.
Marketing
That Brings In Real Jobs
You’ll hear directly from operators and marketing pros who are getting calls daily through guerilla marketing, content, local SEO, Google ADs, and automated follow-ups. Whether you're brand new or just want to stop relying on word-of-mouth, these sessions will show you how to keep the phone ringing.
Trucks, Tools & Tech
From roll-off trucks to trailers and dumpsters, you'll get to see and compare equipment from the top manufacturers in the game. You’ll also find gear like driveway protection, tarp systems, and lift solutions that make the job safer and smoother. On the tech side, speakers will break down the software they use to manage dispatch, invoicing, scheduling, and more.

Need a truck? New cans? Better software? Marketing help? Insurance? Whatever your next move is, the right vendor will be in the room and ready to help you make it.

Here are the main lessons you’ll learn:
Every Win Started With a Mistake
Ask any seven-figure operator how they got where they are, and you’ll hear a story about what went wrong first. Some of the people speaking at this event aren’t gurus, they’re operators who learned through trial, error, and expensive lessons. Now they’re here to pass that experience forward.
You Don’t Need to Burn Out to Level Up
Most owners hit a wall because they’re wearing every hat—driver, dispatcher, marketer, bookkeeper. The Expo pulls back the curtain on how real haulers built sustainable operations without running themselves into the ground. You’ll hear exactly how they did it during interactive workshops and Q&As.
Growth Without Direction Is a Gamble
Getting more dumpsters and more calls sounds great until you realize you don’t have the systems in place to handle it. These speakers will show you how to scale with structure, not chaos. They’ve already made the mistakes so you don’t have to.
Their Mistakes Don’t Have to Be Yours
That’s the point of this event. You’ll sit shoulder-to-shoulder with people who’ve already made the wrong hire, picked the wrong vendor, or bought the wrong truck. And those lessons won’t just come from the stage, they’ll come from the guy you’re standing next to. Everyone here has something to teach and something to gain.

Tickets Cost Less Than A Dumpster Rental
We’re not ready to release tickets just yet, but what we can tell you is this: attending The Dumpster Expo will cost less than what you charge for a single dumpster rental. That’s a small investment for what could become the biggest turning point in your business.
And like most things in life, the earlier you act, the better the deal. Ticket prices typically go up as the event gets closer. If you want to lock in the lowest price possible, drop your contact info below and we’ll make sure you’re the first to know when registration opens.
Still Reading? That Tells Us Something
If you’ve made it this far, it tells us you’re interested and that you’re the kind of person who wants to be sure before making a move. We like that. This event isn’t for impulse buyers. It’s for people who care about doing things right.
When you’re ready, pre-order your ticket and get first access when they drop.
FAQs About The Dumpster Expo
Did this event used to be called The Lone Star Dumpster Showcase?
Yes. Same team. Same mission. Just a bigger stage, more vendors, and a new name that reflects where this is all headed. We wanted something that speaks to dumpster pros across the entire country, not just Texas, because this event has grown way beyond state lines.
Is this event for both small and large-scale dumpster businesses?
Absolutely. Whether you’ve got 3 dumpsters or 300, this event is built to give you something useful, from marketing tips, scaling strategies, tools, tech, and real stories from folks who’ve been in your exact shoes.
Can I bring my family and children to the event?
Yes, the event is family-friendly. We’ll have bounce houses, food, games, and kid-friendly areas so your crew stays entertained while you handle business. And yes, kids get in FREE.
Will there be food at the event?
You bet. Expect coffee, tacos, BBQ, pizza, and other food vendors on-site. You won’t have to leave the event to eat.
Are the tickets good for both days of the event?
Yes, one ticket covers both days, all speaker sessions, vendor access, and everything else we’ve got planned.
What’s the main difference between The Dumpster Expo and other similar events?
Most events are built to sell you something. This one’s built to teach you something. It’s not corporate. It’s not polished and stiff. It’s run by people who actually operate in this space—so everything you see, hear, and do is focused on helping you grow a real, lasting dumpster business.
