Business Information

Highlights

This junk removal business hauls unwanted items, debris, trash and waste for residential and commercial customers across its service area in Los Angeles County, CA. It runs on one truck and a small crew. The crew drives to each job, quotes on site, loads out the items and takes payment through a point-of-sale system. The business keeps a list of repeat customers and of prospects who have received estimates, and that list transfers to the buyer. Today the owner handles operations, marketing, hiring, scheduling and finance in about 10-15 hours a week around another full-time job. The crew handles the physical work and the customer conversation, so crew members need sales and customer-service skills as well as driving ability. The owner sets schedules and trains new staff, and a new owner would step into that same role. The model is home-based with a rented storage unit and no storefront lease, which keeps fixed overhead low. The sale includes the truck and equipment, the customer and estimate lists, and a transition from the owner. It suits a hands-on owner-operator who can put full-time sales and customer-retention effort into a crew, truck and customer base that are already working.

Owner has another full-time job and lacks time to grow the business
The business runs from the owner's home plus a rented storage unit of about 300 sq ft, so there is no storefront, yard or commercial lease to carry. About Amount hidden. Sign up to view. in truck and equipment is included in the sale, so the buyer has the core hauling capacity from day one, along with the customer and estimate lists and the point-of-sale setup. Fixed overhead stays low, which means a buyer's working capital can go to crew and customer acquisition rather than rent. (Home Based)
Seller will provide appropriate training and support as mutually agreed upon by both parties to ensure a successful transition.
Demand comes from two sides: households clearing out unwanted items, and businesses that generate debris and waste. The business already serves both and has a base of returning customers. Because the crew quotes and closes jobs on site, responsiveness and professionalism on the job drive repeat work and referrals. Commercial accounts are the least developed segment and the clearest place for a new owner to build recurring volume.
The quickest lever is owner time. A full-time owner can work the existing repeat-customer list, follow up on estimates that were never converted, and build commercial accounts, a segment the seller says has barely been marketed. Two service areas within current coverage are still under-penetrated, and adding dumpster rental next to hauling would give customers a second service from the same call.
