    Competitive Landscape for Waste Services, Inc.
    Home sales, residential rental turnover, and corporate relocations drive demand for moving and storage services. The profitability of individual companies depends on good marketing, as services are largely the same. Large companies have economies of scale in marketing and in being able to consolidate loads on long hauls. Small companies can compete with large ones by specializing in local markets and by offering competitive prices and better service for local moves. The industry is labor-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is about $125,000. To read the full description, subscribe now.
