The deal

A simple split, calibrated to the work.

~$6,300/month

Home Maintenance Provider — keep 70%. Example gross with a full route (~50 member homes plus typical add-on work), before your own expenses.

~$1,900/month

Removal Operator — keep 70%. Example: a $650 full load pays you $455; after typical tipping fees and fuel (~$120–150) you net roughly $300+ for about a half day — before any helper you hire. Add-on curbside items and quarter-loads stack on route days.

Bin Route Operator — keep 50%. Example net of fuel & chemicals for a full territory (~150 subscriptions, about 8-11 route days a month — roughly $30/hour with zero customer acquisition). Examples, not guarantees — your route, your results.

FLAGSHIP · 1099

Home Maintenance Provider

Run a route of membership homes — the same houses, every month, on a schedule. Small repairs and seasonal maintenance you can do in your sleep, with add-on jobs on top. Keep 70% of everything.

FASTEST START · 1099

Bin Route Operator

Run curbside bin-cleaning routes in your own territory, synced to trash day — and keep 50% of every subscription on your route, with the customers handed to you. You bring your own starter equipment (we hand you the exact list — about $800 to get rolling); we bring the brand, the subscribers, the routes, and the billing. The lowest-cost service business you'll ever start.

TRUCK & TRAILER · 1099

Removal Operator

Haul junk-removal jobs booked and priced by us — keep 70% of every load. You bring the truck or trailer, dollies, and straps; you cover fuel, disposal fees, and any helper out of your split. Photo-quoted jobs, card-on-file customers, zero estimates in driveways. Small curbside items on bin routes go to the bin operator; load-sized jobs are yours.

How joining works

Four steps to your first route.

Apply with your ZIP

Tell us where you are and what you'd run. Territories open city by city — early applicants get first claim.

Background check & verification

Background check, proof of liability insurance, and contractor registration where your state requires it (in PA, that's the $100 HIC registration — no exam).

Paid skills test

A real task list at a test house — and yes, we pay you for it. We're checking quality, speed, communication, and cleanup.

Gear up & get your route

You supply your own equipment and vehicle — we give you the exact proven starter list (~$800 for bin routes; a truck or 5x8+ trailer for removal; most handymen already own their tools). Then we match you to homes near you and fill your calendar. You show up, do great work, and get paid weekly.

Claim your territory.

We're expanding city by city across the country. Drop your ZIP — when your area opens, you're first on the list.

Got it — you're in line for your area. We'll reach out as routes open near you.

Home Maintenance Providers are independent contractors (1099) operating under ForeverKept's quality standards: background check, $1M liability insurance with ForeverKept as additional insured, applicable state contractor registration, and a 4.7★ minimum member rating. Removal Operators additionally carry commercial auto coverage, document every disposal run with dump or donation receipts in the app, and route e-waste and refrigerant-bearing appliances to certified handlers — illegal dumping means immediate removal from the platform. Earnings examples are illustrative and not a guarantee of income.

Questions

FAQ

What does it cost to join?

Nothing to apply, and no franchise fees or lead fees — ever. You supply your own equipment and vehicle (bin route starter kit runs about $800; most handymen already own their tools), plus your own liability insurance and state registration (in PA, HIC registration is $100 for two years, no exam). Your gear is yours — you're building your own operation under our brand.

Am I an employee?

No — every ForeverKept provider is an independent operator (1099), on both tracks. Your hours, your equipment, your right to decline work, your own business under our brand. Bin routes run on the local trash calendar, but how you work them is up to you.

Can I keep my existing customers or other work?

Yes. You can work with other clients and platforms. The one rule: members we introduce to you stay ForeverKept members — no taking platform customers direct.

How do I get paid?

We bill the member; you're paid out weekly. You never invoice, never collect, never chase.

What if my city isn't open yet?

Apply anyway — that's exactly how cities open. Enough strong applicants in one metro is the signal that starts a territory.
