1. Trash Can Cleaning Business: Turning Dirty Bins into Clean Cash.
Ever noticed the gunk and stench lingering in your trash cans even after the garbage truck rolls away?
Well, here’s a side hustle that turns that smelly problem into a profitable solution.
Welcome to the world of pressure-washing trash cans. Imagine yourself or someone you know. Would you not pay someone else to do the hard work that you hesitate to do and someone else is happy to do? With Americans churning out almost five pounds of trash per person daily, there’s a constant demand for cleaner bins. Armed with a simple and affordable battery-powered pressure washer and some soapy magic (a watered-down mixture of Dawn dish soap does wonders), you can kick-start a trash can cleaning service that people are more than willing to pay for.
You will need some of the equipment such as
- Battery-powered pressure washer
If you are starting this business then see the pressure washer as an investment rather than an expense and they are extremely affordable as well. you can get a new one for 40$ on Amazon or even less in the Facebook marketplace.
- Soap attachment or a separate cheap sprayer
This is another tool that is small and mobile to carry and affordable to purchase.
- Soap solution (watered-down Dawn dish soap)
You can purchase at a cheap price in any store or if you buy in bulk it is going to be even more affordable.
Getting Started is super easy:
- Acquire the necessary equipment.
- As you have already acquired the equipment we will check mark this point whereas the next one is crucial.
- Promote your services on local platforms like Facebook groups, Craigslist, and Nextdoor.
- In the beginning, you can start small just to have a grip and see how things go around by doing the neighborhoods and nearby areas. Once you get used to the things and feel like you can do it more professionally create a Facebook page and post your services. Also, be active in socials like Craigslist and Next Door.
- Get creative with door-hanging flyers for that extra promotional boost.
- Print out some flyers with some cool designs through Canva and hang them on the neighborhood doors.
Cleaning just a handful of trash cans in an hour could translate to a few hundred dollars a day. This side hustle is not just low-cost; it’s a high-profit venture and Doing even 1 full day a week during the weekend can help you earn great side Income.
2. Blogging
Potential Earnings of 1000 to over 200,000 a month
Blogging is something I do and love a lot because I know its potential and how big it can be over the years that’s why I have kept it number 2 again.
Blogging is a popular side hustle that allows you to share your thoughts, expertise, and interests with a wide audience. It can be very profitable if you invest your time and effort into creating valuable content.
Starting a blog is easy and can be started with only 4$ a month which I think is nothing compared to all the expenses people have. Hosting platforms like Bluehost have made it lot easier to do things much easier now.
Starting a Blog is very simple, to start a blog, choose a niche that you’re passionate about, and set up a website using platforms like WordPress or Blogger personally use WordPress and would highly recommend it to you as well, and consistently produce high-quality articles. There are various ways of monetizing it such as including advertising, sponsored content, affiliate marketing, and selling digital products.
It may not be an instant cash such as above-mentioned hustles but with the right mindset and a long-term plan Blog can grow exponentially and have a great outcome.
I have listed blogging in this list because of its almost nonexistent cost to operate for people who have time but very little amount of money to start with.
