Solid waste and junk removal financing — keep every truck running and every load covered
Loot offers solid waste collection and junk removal businesses an unsecured business line of credit from $5,000 to $100,000. Use it to cover landfill tipping fees paid per load, fund truck and equipment repairs, or staff up fast for a storm cleanup or seasonal surge, without draining cash tied up in trucks already on route. Established waste and junk removal businesses with 1+ year in business and $200K+ in annual revenue can check their options with a soft pull. Requests up to $30K get an instant decision, while larger requests may take a few more minutes.


Waste collection and junk removal challenges: per-load tipping fees, truck costs, and seasonal surges
Junk removal and waste collection crews pay landfill and transfer station tipping fees at the point of disposal, often per load or per ton, well before the customer invoice is even sent, let alone collected. Trucks, roll-off containers, and compactors need ongoing maintenance and periodic replacement, and a single breakdown can sideline a route for days. Demand spikes hard around spring cleanouts, move-out season, and storm cleanup — the same weeks that require the most fuel, tipping fees, and crew hours upfront.

Where a waste collection and junk removal line of credit does the heavy lifting
Six moments when a solid waste or junk removal business's cash flow needs backup — and how a Loot line of credit can help.
Cover tipping fees before the invoice clears
Crews pay landfill or transfer station fees per load or per ton at the time of disposal, while commercial customers often pay on extended payment windows. A line of credit can help cover the disposal cost gap without slowing down the route.
Repair or replace a truck, roll-off, or compactor
A truck or piece of equipment going down can sideline a route for days, and a repair or replacement is often needed immediately to keep jobs moving. A line of credit can help cover the cost without delaying the next pickup.
Staff up fast for a storm cleanup or seasonal surge
Storm debris removal and spring cleanout demand can spike overnight, requiring additional crews, trucks, and disposal capacity before that surge of new jobs is billed. A line of credit can help a business mobilize fast.
Purchase or lease additional roll-off containers
Adding roll-off container inventory to serve more construction and demolition customers takes upfront capital before the added rental income arrives. A line of credit can help expand capacity without pulling cash from current routes.
Cover fuel and crew payroll on high-volume routes
Fuel and crew payroll for a busy day of multiple dump runs go out the same day, while payment can lag, especially on commercial accounts with extended payment windows. A line of credit can help keep routes running on schedule.
Bridge the slow season between demand surges
Once a storm cleanup or spring rush winds down, business can slow, but truck payments, insurance, and core crew payroll continue. A line of credit can help a business stay fully staffed and equipped for the next surge.

How a Loot line of credit works for a solid waste or junk removal business
Say your business needs $10,000 to cover a week of landfill tipping fees and fuel during a spring cleanout surge, while several commercial customer invoices are still on extended payment windows. With Loot, you can draw $10,000 from your approved line.
Before you confirm, you choose a fixed weekly repayment plan upfront, such as 16, 20, or 24 weeks. You see the total cost before you move forward.
If those invoices clear sooner than expected and you pay the draw off early, there is no prepayment penalty. Paying off early can save up to 50% of remaining fees.
As you repay, your line revolves — the funds become available again as you pay down the draw. Same-day approval is standard, decisions happen in minutes, and once approved, same-day funding is available for a $49 transfer fee.
