How it makes money
Franchise fees and ongoing royalties from franchisees, along with potential sales from branded supplies or marketing materials.
Skills you need

The market, and why this works now
The rise of eco-conscious consumer behavior has increased demand for responsible junk removal services. A local junk removal franchise can initially generate revenue by partnering with local chambers of commerce to access business directories and promote its services. However, founders should consider the labor intensity of the business model, as managing a fleet of junk removal trucks and staff can lead to high operational costs and complexities in workforce management.
