What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clear Pest Pros's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated cost for vehicles with upfitting ranges from $4,728 to $71,000. This cost is expected to be arranged before opening the franchise and is paid to third parties.
The lower end of the range assumes the franchisee already owns a white vehicle that meets Clear Pest Pros's standards and specifications, without any existing wraps that need removal. The higher end accounts for purchasing a brand new vehicle with decals, including a down payment, administrative fees, and three months' worth of lease payments, excluding sales tax.
Clear Pest Pros requires franchisees to have at least one fully wrapped service vehicle, using only approved graphics and wraps from the franchisor or authorized vendors. The franchisor also reserves the right to inspect and approve all vehicles and may require franchisees to upgrade or remodel vehicles to comply with system standards. Franchisees should factor in these potential ongoing vehicle-related expenses when assessing the overall investment.
