💩 Why it's ugly

You are hauling sinks, water tanks, soap, and graywater buckets to people frying things under tents. The glamour is limited, but the inspector is very real.

💰 Why it prints money

Small food vendors often need temporary handwashing or three-compartment sink setups for markets, pop-ups, fairs, and commissary gaps. Rental inventory is reusable, and demand clusters around weekends and event seasons.

🗺️ The launch playbook 🔒

First 30 days

Register the entity and get the basic insurance sorted before anything else. Call the three biggest local operators and ask what they refuse to do — that refusal list is your launch menu. Price the first ten jobs deliberately low to collect reviews, then raise rates fifteen percent.

Days 31–60

Buy the used equipment, not the new one. The route density is what makes this profitable, so cluster your first customers within a twenty minute radius and decline anything outside it.

This is the part that makes money.
