    Before you do that, try to get into the clean out business or something similar. A pickup and a dump trailer (or a utility trailer) will take you a long way.

    Don't do it. Take it from me, I've taken about 400 for free at one time. Never again. They are NOT worth it. CRT disposal fees are terrible. If anything, I would charge him $5 a piece.
