What is the estimated low and high range for miscellaneous opening costs for a 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise?

According to 1-800-GOT-JUNK?'s 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated initial investment for miscellaneous opening costs ranges from $5,000 to $15,000. These costs are arranged with and paid to third-party vendors as incurred.

These miscellaneous start-up expenses include the initial truck-based marketing kit, Universal Business Listing ads, uniforms, truck equipment, deposits, business licenses, and legal expenses. However, the FDD notes that these expenses can vary based on existing operations, such as whether the franchisee already owns computer, communication, or related equipment, or if they have a home office. Franchisees will also need to factor in fuel and maintenance costs for their trucks.

1-800-GOT-JUNK? indicates that these figures are estimates, and it cannot guarantee that franchisees will not incur additional expenses when starting their business. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider these potential variations and additional costs when planning their initial investment.
