Transcript
Clayton: Some of the pain points I would have was definitely just keeping track of inventory and utilizing inventory to its fullest.
Clayton: You know, as soon as it comes back, I can then rent it out. Or as soon as I know something’s going to come back, I can actually have it rented ahead of time, which definitely helped our bottom end rather than inventory coming back, sitting for a while because, you know, I wasn’t prepared for it.
Clayton: Between that and then actually communicating with drivers and providing a really good user experience for the customer. I like them to be able to know when their dumpster is showing up, get notified we’re on their way, and then just get to sign their contract and pay all at once—rather than the driver coming, handing out the contract, signing it, collecting payment.
Clayton: Just one smooth process. We get, you know, great reviews because of that.
