💩 Why it's ugly

Showers sound civilized until you manage hair clogs, wet floors, propane tanks, and gray water from strangers. It is hospitality with work boots.

💰 Why it prints money

Disaster response, remote construction, oil and gas sites, camps, festivals, and military-style training events need mobile hygiene. The equipment is expensive, which keeps casual competitors away and supports higher rental rates.

🗺️ 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.
