Regarding the junk removal business, I've been doing it for many years (my own business, not a franchise) and there are a few main things to consider to be successful:

1. Have a truck big enough to eliminate multiple round trips to and from the dump for your average customer

2. Try to negotiate a special rate with your local dump and recycling center

3. Do everything in your power to pick up on the same day a customer calls you. The last thing you want is to leave them waiting with a bunch of their unwanted stuff.

At the core of it, it is a simple business. With more and more people jumping into this market you need to stay competitive and work hard to establish and maintain your image.
