Established in 2021, this growing junk removal franchise serves four large, protected Chicagoland territories covering the whole Chicagoland area! By its second full year, the business generated over $216,000 in revenue and has built a strong foundation with more than 50 five-star Google reviews and 63% repeat clientele.

Services include residential and commercial cleanouts, construction demolition and job-site cleanup, donation logistics, and a developing resale component. Revenue mix: Residential (49%), Commercial (20%), Services including construction (30%), Resale (1%). The business is shifting toward larger commercial and construction jobs, increasing average ticket size and scalability.

Operations run from a 3,400 sq. ft. industrial facility (gross lease $3,712/month; expires 7/2026 with renewal option). Staff includes 2 full-time and 2 part-time employees, led by a 3-year supervisor and a business development/customer care manager. Training for a new owner can be completed within 3 months. Recruiting and onboarding are streamlined with minimal turnover.

Sales are driven through strong relationship marketing—realtors, senior living facilities, estate companies, property managers, contractors, investors—as well as SEO, Google Ads, social media, and grassroots marketing. Ideal clients include homeowners downsizing or selling, property managers, and general contractors.

The owner currently works approximately 10 hours per week handling sales and financial oversight. The business offers significant upside for a more hands-on operator, particularly by expanding commercial accounts and senior living partnerships.

With massive territories encompassing the whole Chicago market, transparent pricing, structured systems, and growing demand fueled by urbanization, sustainability trends, and real estate turnover, this is a scalable, recession-resilient service business with strong brand positioning in a competitive market.

Pacing for the start of 2026 is drastically outpacing 2025.
