A lot of areas won't let you put out a yard sign on your property to promote your lawn care business, but what if you put a sign on your garbage cans to promote your lawn care business? This could be a great way to build out your routes around current customers.
Could you also possibly put signs on your customers' trash cans and give them something like a free annual aeration or something like that?
I never see ads on garbage cans and because of that, they might stand out.
Or maybe you could allow each customer to use a can of yours that said yard waste on the cover and was used for yard waste? You could then take the can back if they cease to be a customer.
What's your view?
