Better Bins | Application Preview
Better Bins is applying for government grants to expand its waste bin cleaning services. The majority of the funding will be invested in a pressure washing utility truck and the necessary equipment, while the remainder will go towards marketing, networking, and ensuring compliance with relevant regulations. Any leftover funds will be used for customer appreciation initiatives.
The business aims to secure contracts with major companies and organizations, while also promoting environmentally friendly practices in the community. Better Bins addresses a significant need by providing a service that improves sanitation and reduces odors associated with dirty waste bins, ultimately enhancing the overall cleanliness of properties.
The market for waste bin cleaning is still largely untapped in Canada, with few competitors. Better Bins stands out by offering a unique service that allows customers to personalize their bins, making the task of handling waste more enjoyable. Feedback from potential customers indicates that personalization is a desirable feature, even attracting interest from children. This combination of cleanliness and customization is expected to set Better Bins apart in the marketplace.

Business Plan
I hope to gain contracts with prominent businesses, and associations to ensure continuous services rendered by Better Bins. We will be broadening our cleaning services with the community and environmentally friendly entities, through environment friendly education. Waste bin cleaning has already been shown to be highly beneficial in Canada. It helps to keep properties clean and free of rodents, pests, pollution, and many other harmful negatives that are associated with un-sanitized and unkept waste bins. Most of us are running to hide our trash bins once they've been emptied because of the unbearable stench and left behind trash. Why? By utilizing our service all trash bin dilemmas can end. Not only will you have clean and sanitary waste bins, but you can even enjoy a somewhat personalized option. By refreshing the address on your bin or adding a logo of your choice, it would make the overall chore of taking the trash out, feel less like a chore.

Self Identified Competition
The great thing about my service is that it is largely untapped. There are a couple of businesses offering this service, but none are offering services in addition to our primary service. Our approach with whom and how we offer our service. In addition to the cleaning, a customer having the option to individualize and personalize THEIR bins is an interesting option to the customer. Through questionnaires given to potential customers, we learned that a personalization option is favored to having no additional options. The children even became interested.
