Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

I've been running a junk removal business (my own) for a while and here are some main points you'll want to consider to help succeed in the industry:

1. Find a truck big enough to eliminate multiple trips to the dump or recycling center for your average customer.

2. Try to negotiate special rates at the dump or recycling center as a frequent customer.

3. Do everything humanly possibly to pick up a customer's junk on the same day they call. The last thing they want is stuff lying around their house waiting to be picked up. Use this as a selling feature.

Hey that sounds good but never ever thought of such kind of business, presently I'm making my living through trading and what I feel is, it is the most lucrative market and extremely profitable and super easy to get started with.

Like anything relating to small business, before starting one on your own, regardless of your idea, you need to consider how much time it is going to take to run it successfully. Not only will you have to do the grunt work, or provide the service that makes you money, but then you will need to spend your "time off" still working on the business. You spend this off time working because that is when you are keeping books, looking for leads, etc. Good Luck!

Yes, scouring your local CraigsList ads for free stuff or stuff that's being thrown out is a good way to develop some immediate leads. Even creating a CraigsList post for a junk removal service being offered may produce some business. It never hurts, and its free.

I also wanted to mention that another way to look at starting a junk removal business is to visit your local dump, or wherever you'll be dropping off most of your junk. Get a feel for the process and their rates, and you can incorporate that into what you need to charge to achieve a profit.

Yes, like any business or startup there is some level of risk involved, in my case with junk removal, it's easier to limit the initial startup risk as far as finances go. I don't have to pay for location-based office, and the employees I hire don't have to be highly skilled and demand high salaries. The dump fees are a recurring cost, but only one I incur as a result of business coming my way, so that is acceptable. The biggest up front cost is the truck. You need something reliable and big enough to eliminate multiple trips. Overall its a pretty safe business to get into, assuming the market isn't already saturated.
