What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clear Pest Pros' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the projected revenue per truck is $219,895, with a cost of sales of $117,455. This results in an operating margin of $102,440, which is 46.6%.
The cost of sales for Clear Pest Pros includes technician and subcontractor labor, related commissions, and the costs associated with the truck, equipment, and materials used to deliver the pest control services. These figures are projections based on the experience of Safer Home Services (SHS Location), an affiliated company-owned pest management business in Clearwater, Florida.
It's important to note that these projections are based on a franchisee deploying one truck in one territory, which is the requirement at launch. However, the projections are derived from data from the SHS Location, which operates in a territory eight times larger than a Clear Pest Pros territory and has been operating since 2014. Prospective franchisees should consider these differences when evaluating the financial performance representations. Clear Pest Pros also states that franchisees may establish their own pricing for services.
