Dumpster rental company enters Arkansas market

Redbox+ Dumpsters, a national waste-removal business known for its distinctive red roll-off containers with built-in portable toilets attached, has established its first franchise in Arkansas.

Ben and Lauren Onstott of Springdale are the franchise owners covering Northwest Arkansas. They rent dumpsters to customers, typically commercial and residential roofers, remodelers and restoration companies to use at their commercial and residential job sites.

They bought a franchise to tap into the burgeoning demand for rentals and construction in the region. Ben Onstott spent 16 years with Walmart Inc., carrying out several functions from international accounting to finance and merchandise strategy. Lauren Onstott’s background is in sales and marketing.

“I have seen first-hand the need for two-in-one dumpsters in the area, especially in the next five years, as we continue to see rapid growth and as homeowners plan to embark on remodels on older homes,” Ben Onstott said.

Belfor Franchise Group acquired Redbox+ Dumpsters in 2021, and the company now has more than 80 franchisees covering 300 territories around the U.S.
