REDBOX+

FDD Year:

Redbox+ franchises operate businesses offering patented roll-off container and portable toilet combination units, along with other approved waste hauling services. Franchisees generate revenue primarily from container rentals (82.6% average), excess tonnage fees, and non-rental sources, targeting contractors such as roofers, remodelers, developers, fire/water repair specialists, landscapers, and homeowners in competitive markets for roll-off dumpsters and portable toilets.
