Franchisees benefit from the credibility of an established, award-winning company that has completed large-scale clean-out projects for the federal government buildings of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and for the US Department of Energy, as well as for commercial clients such as US Airways. Our trucks are custom designed for the job, and act as a moving billboard for increased presence, visibility, and name recognition in your exclusive territory. Franchisees employ a trained pool of insured collegiate teams that handle the labor and estimating. Available every day of the week all year round, our complete junk removal process ensures that customers have a perfect experience every time!
And we’re the coolest and most reliable junk removal company around!
Our company significantly benefits from the fact that customers admire our trustworthy college theme. Over 70% of our customers have said that our name played a major roll in their decision to call us as opposed to our competition. The bright orange and green branded trucks elicit smiles, double-takes, and cheers whenever they drive by. We employ only the best and brightest, by targeting the local colleges and universities to hire some of the friendliest and most trustworthy junk haulers in the industry. Not your typical junk haulers, our uniformed College Hunks Hauling Junk crews arrive on time at customers’ sites clean, well-groomed, and with their shirts tucked in. And, knowing that they are supporting our underlying goal to help students pay their way through school, customers tend to feel that awarding us their business is well worthwhile

Viewers learn that getting rid of junk is one of the key steps in adding value to a home and work space.
