National DoorStep Valet Trash Service

What National DoorStep Valet Trash Service does

National DoorStep Valet Trash Service (legal entity: National Doorstep Pickup, LLC) is a Tampa, Florida-based waste management company founded in 2014 by Les Leith that provides nightly doorstep trash and recycling collection to multifamily apartment communities across all 48 contiguous U.S. states. The company serves over 300,000 apartment doors through a direct-to-property-manager sales motion, with customers spanning Garden Style, Mid-Rise, Urban Hi-Rise, Condominium, Student Housing, Senior Living, and Military Housing communities. Standard service operates Sunday through Thursday evenings between 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM, with 7-day service as an upsell tier.

The company's core technology stack is a tech-enabled logistics platform rather than a pure staffing operation. It includes Proof of Pickup® (GPS breadcrumbing with photo evidence marketed as 'Amazon®-level' verification), a mobile Porter Software application for route management and gate-code handling, a US-based command center for live monitoring, and the GreenPlus™ Profit Calculator that models NOI impact and waste diversion savings for property owners. GreenPlus™ paired with Compliance Shield is the premium offering, targeting 40%+ waste diversion and producing digital documentation aligned with municipal recycling ordinances — an increasingly material concern as cities adopt multifamily recycling mandates.

The business model is subscription-based, priced at $250 per door per year for 5-day service and $300 per door per year for 7-day service, with property managers typically wholesale the service and bill residents an amenity fee. A secondary transaction-fee revenue stream comes from violation fines (1.75% of monthly events at $25 each). Revenue is generated entirely through direct sales (website proposals and a 844-APT-TRASH phone line) and trade association channels (NMHC, NSC, TAA, FAA), with no channel partners or resellers. The company is privately held, founder-owned, and bootstrapped, with no disclosed institutional capital, acquisitions, or leadership changes since founding.
