Better Business; Better Life

Every year when the calendar flips, I find myself thinking back to the early days of DX — before we had a yard full of dumpsters, before we knew if this thing would take off, and before we had a team that feels more like family.Back then it was just an idea:Could we build a company that made life a little easier for people?Not a perfect company. Not the biggest company.
Just a really good one.

One that actually picks up the phone.
One that shows up when we say we will.
One that treats people like… well, people.

That idea is still the heartbeat of DX as we step into a new year. Because the longer I do this, the more I believe it:

Better business really can create better lives.

Not in a flashy way.
In the day-to-day moments that don’t make the highlight reel.

I think about the foreman who told me…
“You all made my life better today.”

It wasn’t a big job. Nothing complicated. We just did what we said we’d do. But the look on his face told me it meant something — maybe more than we realized.

That’s Better Business; Better Life in real time.

I think about our own crew, too.
The guys who show up early, hustle all day, and still find a way to laugh at the end of it.

If their workday feels lighter…
If their families get to see them a little less stressed at night…
If their effort feels valued…

That matters.
A lot.

A business should leave its people better than it found them.
And then I think about you.

You may not be a DX customer yet — and that’s completely okay.

If you’re reading this because you opened one of our emails — or because something led you to DX online — I’m genuinely grateful. Your time and attention mean more than you know, and I don’t treat them lightly.

The start of a new year has a way of bringing things into focus. It reminds us that the things we pour ourselves into — the work we do, the companies we build, the people we take care of — only matter when they help someone step into the next season with a little more momentum, a little more clarity, and a little more room to breathe.

That’s the point of all this for me.

If we can lighten the load for even one person…
If something we do gives a crew a smoother week…
If DX plays even a small part in someone’s “better life”…

Then this whole journey is worth it.

So here’s what Better Business; Better Life means to me:

It’s not a slogan.
It’s not a marketing idea.
It’s not even about dumpsters.

It’s about people — the ones we serve, the ones we work alongside, and the ones we hope to partner with this year.

It’s about work that matters, done with integrity.
It’s about building something steady in a world that feels loud and unpredictable.
It’s about choosing to leave folks better than we found them — every time we can.

That’s my goal for this year.

And whether we ever do business together or not, I hope you step into the months ahead with real hope, fresh energy, and pride in the work you do.

Thanks for being here.
