Brian grew the business to $37M/month, initially driving around looking for piles of junk or simply knocking on doors and asking the owners if they needed anything taken away for a fee.
This company offers a franchise-based, full-service junk removal business devoted to assisting clients in recovering lost space in their residences and places of business.
They collect all types of trash, including clothing, household items like furniture and electronics, and junk from renovation projects. Additionally, they help those in need by donating any possible items to charity.
