What This Means (2025 FDD)
I am unable to provide information on what happens if a 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchisee fails to commence operation of the Franchised Business on the Scheduled Opening Date, according to the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document excerpts. While Schedule B to the Franchise Agreement does define the 'Scheduled Opening Date of Franchised Business,' it does not state the consequences of failing to open by that date. A prospective franchisee should ask the franchisor about the implications of not opening the business on time.
