China: Paid trash disposal service gains popularity
A new niche service involving paid trash disposal is gaining traction in several Chinese cities. Customers pay service providers to collect and dispose of household waste, allowing them to simply leave tied bags outside their doors.
According to reports, individual collection fees typically range between 3 and 5 yuan, while monthly subscription packages are available for approximately 100 yuan.
In Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, a 28-year-old named Mihan successfully launched a similar micro-business after leaving her previous job. By offering a rate of 3 yuan for waste under 5 kg and a 99 yuan monthly package, she secured over 20 customers within just three days of advertising her services.
