Dog Waste removal Business
« on: January 13, 2014, 12:48:38 pm »
Hi all

At present i am working 1/2 days a week cleaning windows. I have been looking for something else that can be done when the weather is bad. I am looking at starting up a dog waste removal business. There doesnt seam to be any in Northern Ireland and think that there is a market for this type of business.

I have researched the net and read everything that i can from there. I have poster designed and prices set i plan on starting up in the next few weeks.

What i am after is any advise that anyone can give before i get started. I have experience of door to door sales and have no problem selling. I have the prices set for private customersbut have no idea of how to get or charge corporate.

If anyone is involved in this business or has any advise, i would be grateful

Thanks and all the best for 2014

Sounds a crap idea to me :-).

I reckon you could be on to something with this, especialy with elderly people who havnt the energy to go out and poo pick, could do a weekly service at £10 per time.
Wouldnt need that many customers before it gets up and running quickly.
Best of luck.

Another business you could consider is a rubbish/fly tipping clean up service.

Its a massive problem, i've been picking up hypodermic needles and clearing rubbish for many years but now i'm often stuck in the class room.

You should be able to generate a good income from this service.

Ask any window cleaner where the dagshat is as they always find it and stand in it  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D its usually found quite near the ground. I would pay for someone to come round and pick up the landmines ! I once did the drains in a dog kennels and it was quite an original smell after years of human porridge
