What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to 1 800 Packouts's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Quick Start Package (QSP) for a single-unit franchise costs $53,500, plus applicable tax and/or tariffs, which includes freight delivery to the franchisee's location. The QSP includes initial equipment to outfit the cleaning room, initial supplies for operations, a starting supply of consumables like tags, gloves, tape, and shoe covers, inventory for 1-800-Packouts branded boxes for the franchisee's first jobs, and certain marketing and storage items.
The payment for the QSP is split into two installments. Half of the cost is due during onboarding, and the remaining balance is due at the time of shipping. This payment structure helps franchisees manage their initial investment by spreading it out over a period of time.
Prospective 1 800 Packouts franchisees should carefully consider the components of the QSP to understand what is included and how it will support their initial operations. Understanding the timing of the payments is also crucial for financial planning during the startup phase. Franchisees should also confirm whether the QSP contents align with their specific needs and operational plans, and discuss any potential adjustments with 1 800 Packouts.
