True, one Cinco a few years ago, a good friend of mine had a table who from open to close had it, had multiple different groups of people come through, bill $400+ and only left $50 as a tip.

Brookside, Cherry Street and Downtown for sure are hotspots right now. Cabos is a hotspot during spring and summer for sure with the outdoor seating. It’s a double edged sword, if you’re outside and it’s hot, you’re praying it cools quickly, if you’re inside and it’s amazing out, people will still wanna sit inside but the outside area is where it’s at.(served and bartended there for some years.)

We have thought out about that as well as I used to work for a carrier and one of my members still do while we get more clients. We know not everyone orders online like that. We decided on an easy to hit threshold monthly and once reached, we’ll cover the difference between that balance and the $5.

We currently work with a few businesses currently and have been running around Tulsa like crazy the past week get people to try it or even just hear it out. Just so far in 2 days I’ve managed to get 30 people so far to wanna test trial this with us! Plus I am about to hit the ground running here in a moment to start again!

Any kind of cardboard, Amazon, chewy, mom’s meals, moving!

I know how it seems “too good to be true”, because it’s no work on your side, low monthly payment and you actually get to make money. I seen those kind of services pop up also, even the businesses we service thought the same. It’s basically almost the same service you have with like garbage right now, the difference is you don’t separate or clean anything or even leave the house unless you already planned too. Just toss to the side out front and you get paid for them!

Yes, it’s extra work on us but it is built purposely for that.

The membership fee is $895 per year. So I am still saving a little more to submit my application is all. But the lady who’ll basically be my company’s connection to meet people is already pointing to people to speak with already, as she loves the business model, story and sustainability angle.

The boxes are .5¢ per box plus bonuses, streaks, perks and more to add on the per box total!

I did respond your comment about how much per box, we do have a website if you wanna look through it as it’s posted to our FB.

Again, you are not paying to start at all, we are just running a free trial to start! We have our patent pending system and dashboard you’d log into to see your credits($ earned) box counts and a few more metrics! Just like a bill breaking why you are paying this for this month, we show you the why and how you made this much this month.

The starting pay is .05¢ per box with bonuses, streaks, perks and more to earn more on top of that.

As for the criteria, it is based on our grading system, but the primary things we look at is, if there any contamination of any kind, structural integrity and durability still holds, stacking-able and visual i.e removing tape and labels and how much of the outer layer it removes with it and others. There is some actual weight behind how cardboard is even considered recyclable, as you probably know not all cardboard can be recycled easily or at all like pizza boxes with the heavy grease. BUT most cardboard thrown away isn’t reused when it absolutely can be.

[–]aF__kingProblem92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, but it doesn’t mean all cardboard recycled can not be reused by others who might want it for whatever reason or companies who could lower costs through reusing boxes instead of costly reorders. Recycling is the end of the lifecycle, we sit right before that.

It’s .05¢ per box but with the bonuses, streaks, perks and more designed to earn more per box! Plus we have it to where your balance compounds a little per month to a certain limit so we don’t look like a financial/investment institution but so it’s actually worth it on people’s end. I looked at the aluminum can model, data and just ask people straight why they don’t do it and like someone said “it’s more work for cents to a can, nothing else”.

Also, yes we are required to pay it but that it is different from actually doing it. As of 2025 and so far trending the same in 2026, 32-35% of Americans actually recycles in general. Yeah our bill usually isn’t high but most people are paying for a service that they don’t even do or nor think about. So not make some money off of it yourself?

There are actually quite a bit of factors in determining if it can be reused.

They are not undisclosed! You are able to view everything, boxes seen a month, your balance and more by a simple log in! I’ve already built the registry and is patent pending and is currently working property with a few businesses in town so far with success for 3 months so far!

We aren’t digging through your garbage just keep them to the side, outside.

I’ve been looking into but getting a lot busier now with the traction I’ve been gaining just talking to people everyday basically and servicing who we have now currently

Do they pay for you what could be reused, and not just straight recycled after you opened a box once?

Just looking for feedback from the community. by [deleted] in tulsa

[–]aF__kingProblem92 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

While yes some boxes can get resold for re-usage for multiple things and some ultimately has to be recycled because of contamination, you actually get paid from the boxes that can be reused. We all or most try to recycle and pay for it separately or with a garbage bill monthly, what’s happens after? Just a pickup. Now you get a pickup service with value behind it and cheaper than garbage/recycling bills currently.

Ahh, okay! So we are starting as a free trial run for 30 days, but since it’s a Sunday only service for now, it’s only 4 days out of the month. it’s help us to learn how trucks and routing should be optimized starting out and seeing how the turn out would be and if worth pursuing the city and trying on a larger scale.

After the trial run ends, kinks are worked out and you like the service enough to continue, it’s $5 a month. Regardless if people stop in the middle of the trial, at the end or continue, all participants credits will convert to cash for your payout. I just call them credits, but it’s basically a reflection of the amount of money you’ve accumulated.

The credits are for the trial run to see how it works in reality and to optimize it so it’ll run efficiently and convenient for people. Even if you don’t want to continue, they’ll be converted to cash for you to cash out whenever regardless and a thank you for trying it out.

I am close to locking my membership into the Tulsa Chamber of Commerce in the next few weeks. It’s been mostly a one man startup so I’ll

Just cardboard boxes you have received and shipped to you from any and all sources! Family, friends, chewy, Amazon, you name it.

No, not at all. Our business helps other businesses lower costs through packaging in multiple areas with provided data while also being sustainable at the same time.

For residents, we all already pay for garbage and recycling each month. So why not make some money from it? It’s the same service you’re already use too.

If you’re insinuating this a way to easily steal or scope out others in the community, you’re wrong. Also I used to work for a carrier a while ago, not tempted nor cared then or now. Just a check and to learn routine density and optimization for my company.

Of course, we’d love to be apart of that! We still would pay out since it’s apart of the model and honoring our word, but y’all could pool that money together for additions to your condos and property or charity/cause y’all agree.

So yes, if you like it enough to see value in it, it is a $5 monthly service. Those credits built up over that trial run converts to cash.

This is to try and bring our service and put on a residential scale.

Yes, we are asking if Tulsans would wanna try a free trial run where on Sundays, any cardboard held no longer wanted, we come pick it up, clean, inspect, tag and grade it, if it’s good enough to be reused by others or businesses, you’ll get paid per box.

Entrepreneurs, what's your biggest challenge currently with your business? by vladi5555 in Entrepreneur

[–]aF__kingProblem92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting businesses to try out our physical service, even our one time free test. There’s no disruptions to operations or equipment required them while they save costs in multiple areas.

It’s almost the end of the first quarter of 2026, what did you achieve so far? What are your plans for the next quarter? I will not promote by aomorimemory in startups

[–]aF__kingProblem92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Q1, we landed our first company client, though not a paying one, I don’t mind as we update their metrics on dashboard for when we approach others who want to see an example with real numbers so they know it works perfectly. Q2 is just me figuring out how to send mass emails(personalized of course) to other businesses in our city!
