Start Your Own Junk Removal Business

You have heard the saying that one man's junk is another man's treasure. That is certainly true when it comes to the junk removal business. Most people simply don't know what to do with their junk, or even if they do they lack the proper vehicle to transport it.

The junk removal business is fairly easy. If you have a pick-up truck or any vehicle that can pull a small trailer you are in business. Just put a small ad in the paper and people will call. Offer free estimates. A sure sign that someone is too expensive is when they charge for estimates. This usually means that they rarely get to do a job because their price is too high, so they resort to charging for estimates.

The important thing with this business is to charge fairly for your services. Don't cheat yourself, but you don't want to drive away without the job either. You are already there, so try to negotiate to get the job. Remember, to most people this is just junk so it's difficult for them to pay to remove something that they see as worthless. To you it may be of much greater value. The profits of junk removal go beyond labor charges of actually removing the junk. Metal can be taken to the scrap yard for cash. An old car exhaust system can contain a catalytic converter which can fetch up to $300 at the scrap yard. Old car batteries get $7-$8 at a battery recycler. Also look for items that can be refurbished and sold, like appliances. Each case is different, so try to see the total profit potential in each one.

Be responsible and recycle whatever you can before you take the remainder to your local landfill.
