What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to the 2025 1 800 Packouts Franchise Disclosure Document, upon termination or expiration of the franchise agreement, a franchisee must provide a list of all uncompleted jobs, including details about the contents stored at the facility.

1 800 Packouts may require the franchisee to complete open jobs at their own expense if they can be promptly finished. The franchisee may also be required to continue securely storing customer contents at their expense until delivery arrangements are made. Alternatively, 1 800 Packouts may require the franchisee to arrange for the delivery and storage of customer contents at another secure, climate-controlled storage facility approved by 1 800 Packouts, or to arrange for the delivery of customer contents to their location using approved providers, all at the franchisee's expense.

Furthermore, if 1 800 Packouts or its designee assumes responsibility for any open jobs, the franchisee must pay a liquidated damages fee of $5,000 per job. This is in addition to any other actual expenses or damages incurred by 1 800 Packouts or its designee in completing the job, especially if those costs exceed $5,000. The franchisee is also obligated to modify or alter the franchised business location immediately upon termination or expiration to distinguish it from a 1 800 Packouts franchise, including removing signs, the Marks, and any trade dress.
