What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 1-800-GOT-JUNK? Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee wishes to expand their territory by adding more subterritories, 1-800-GOT-JUNK? has the option to require specific actions. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? may require the franchisee to sign an amending agreement that officially adds the new subterritories to the existing agreement.
Alternatively, 1-800-GOT-JUNK? can choose to have the franchisee enter into 1-800-GOT-JUNK?'s then-current franchise agreement. This new agreement would specifically cover the additional subterritories.
