How much do bricks weigh? Enough to wreck your business when you ignore the numbers. Too many people walk into junk removal jobs blind—no weight estimates, no disposal costs, no plan. Then they ask, "What do I charge?" Know this: 🔹 A brick weighs 4 lbs. 🔹 A cinder block…
During the pandemic, I had a moment of reckoning—not a breakdown, a breakthrough. All the events, the networking, the runaround…it went away. What came next was a hard reset. I realized: I'm not in this for the badge. I'm in it for the team. So I got back on the…
Stop trying to manage your time. Start managing your priorities. You got three steps. That’s it: 1️⃣ Write down your priorities—ALL of them. Rank them. 2️⃣ Track your time for two weeks—every 15 minutes. What are you doing? 3️⃣ Adjust. Set boundaries. Communicate those boundaries to the people that matter.…
Piss-poor decisions don’t come from bad intentions—they come from neglecting the basics. I used to think hustle meant 90-hour weeks, sleeping when I could, and crushing every task in my path. I was wrong. The truth? I was running on empty—mentally, physically, emotionally. I got a ton of shit done,…
Been in the hustle for 12+ years? Good. You’ve seen the peaks and valleys. I got in the game during the Great Recession of ‘09, scraping metal and hauling junk when no one else wanted to. It sucked—and I still did well. Because I showed up. I stayed in it.…

You can't scale a hustle. To grow a business, you need more than trucks. You need people. A team that’s bought in, trained up, and led with absolute clarity and conviction. Be the kind of leader who protects the culture. Who inspires the mission. Who drives results. Without leadership, all…

Say What You Mean. When shit hits the fan, leaders don’t waffle. They get loud, clear, and decisive. Think about any military movie you’ve seen. One person starts giving orders. No “maybe,” no “I think,” no passive bullshit. Just real, direct action. That’s how you win. That’s how you lead.…
Behavior creates belief—not the other way around. If you're stuck, quit waiting for your mindset to shift. MOVE. Get off the couch, take the first damn step, and let your body lead your brain. Go for the walk, send the email, lift the weight, make the call. Do the thing…
"Money is tight." Okay—what does that actually mean? Too many people hear that and freeze. Not me. I ask better questions: “What does tight mean to you?” “What can you afford right now?” Look—someone told me they had $1,000 for a $3,500 job. That’s not a conversation, that’s a mismatch.…
