You mentioned most of the main places we drop off cards/folders to. But, here are a few more: churches, college universities, and hospitals (can be HUGE clients), movie theaters (with COVID, that's a bit dead), warehouse managers (pallet pickups are pretty good for us), and neighborhood groups or HOAs. Always impressed with how busy you guys are! Keep up the great content!
Y’all work great together making these videos. Like when Matt gets done Jojo is ready with her input and then when you’re about to be done Matt has what he is about to say ready. Y’all really meant for eachother! ❤️🤘🎄
Your ideas of who to contact are genius. I've made about 50 calls to places mentioned in the video and probably 150+ to go. I haven't had a job from those calls yet but many people seem very happy to know I'm around. Just got my first ever 2 jobs from friends.
You guys are great and great energy. I have my first junk removal job this weekend and I'm renting a utility. Just working my way up until I can buy one. Thank you Matt and Jojo you guys have a great channel.
Is there a way I can subscribe to just the Jo Jo part of the channel? Just jokes, I’m subbing. Y’all are killing it son. I am having a HARD time getting my 1st job. Ads on FB Marketplace, FB Ads, Hometown local, Craigslist and just got a website. Now time to learn SEO. I have had ZERO calls. I will be trying your advice. Thank y’all. Oh and a HUGE congratulations for your sobriety, 15 years strong and sober here.
Cold in Cali? Damn come to the midwest brutha. Thanks for the video. Always look forward to the next one. About to pull the trigger here. Be safe! Thanks
I been a subscriber for a while now. And I just wanted to take a moment and thank you guys for your motivational videos. Love the attitude and god is blessing you guys. You guys have inspired me to start my own junk removal beginning of 2021 and I thank you guys for it. Keep making that 💰 💴. God bless you guys.
@@fredmiller7397 just started this year. So I'm just trying to get my name out there. I get about 1-2 jobs per week. But I'm really staying optimistic that as the time goes by it's going to get busier and busier.
@@joseluismeza8312 I’m sure it will. You’ve already done more than 90% just by getting out there. I’m researching on how to start a junk business myself. I have a small 5x10 pull behind trailer that needs some work and an 02 v8 Dakota. Stuff is a bit rusty but it’s something to start with. Keep at it. I’d be happy to land 1 job a week once I start!
@@fredmiller7397 I'm sure you will land more than one job. And honestly any equipment that you have is good. What matters is that you stay consistent and commitment.
Awesome advice on keeping busy in the winter house organizer... who knew !!! ...Lol never heard of them anyway thank you for the tips God bless, SoCal Junkie, ✌😎
Hello guys, you are a inspirations for all of us. I am a dump truck driver, I drive the three axle KW t-880 for a company that don't pay me much. so I am going to buy a pick up truck and start my own thing. I did scrap before but metal got so low that you don't see much guys doing that anymore, at least here in Maryland. God bless you guys there is no price for what you guys do for other people. Thank you so much!
Y'all are a great team and your story is truly inspirational Matt! How much would you charge for a .5 -1 hour consultation for questions someone might have? I'm curious to know what invoicing software and scheduling software you recommend. Keep Haulin' 'N Ballin' ya'll!!
Thanks again for making these videos! You guys are awesome and are changing my life for the better. Today I bought a pickup! It’s a 3500 and should haul anything I ever need to. Gotta admit I’m scared to have a payment and fail. Fear of failure is why I’ve never dreamed or tried much and I’m working to change that! I was wondering how to you collect the payment? Do you use an app like square or something?
That’s awesome. Thanks for the great words. When we started we just took cash and checks, but now we also accept credit cards with a clover square. Good luck to you. Keep us posted
They are bandit signs, I don’t remember where we got them, I wouldn’t get these kind again, they are flimsy and bend in the wind, they are also not easy to read from far away.
Hey yall, I have used some of these ideas you mentioned. It's kept me busy as heck! Stopped today and talked with another contractor building out multi plaza units in shopping mall, he took my bid and says he'll use me...🤞🤞🤑🤑
where do suggest as a new hauler where to market, done offer up, CL, Facebook market place, any other suggestions? Plus home advisor keeps calling and they have leads but its going to cost about $20 a month what do you think? Thanks for the great videos.
Hi Matt and JoJo. I moved from the L.A. area to Spokane, Washington. I just started my hauling business. I did a Yard cleanout in Long Beach, before moving up here. Impasses out flyers in Long Beach for about a week. The responses were good. However, I had to move quickly to Spokane for personal reasons. I did have time to work the free platforms on the net. The market is depressing up here. I passed out flyers (among other things) nailed up signs. etc. I have noticed that the market up here isn't as good as Los Angeles. Can I still do well up here or do I go get a lousy job at a Home Depot type place. Matt and JoJo you inspired me. Any tips? Will I starve to death in the winter up in the great white north of Spokane? Staying with mom now helps. One last thing. I have been hyper focusing on residential clients. Also, should I market my efforts towards wealthy people or more middle class types. A friend of mine says that wealthy people "are too cheap, usually" I would like some feedback, thanks.
Hi, thanks for the comment, you may have to start this as a side hustle until you grow your clients....you will also have the winter to work through....continue to advertise just like you did in your old city. I would target everyone...rich, middle class, residential and commercial....
Lol I'm plowing snow for cal trans this winter, but I'm Thinking of dropping summer work for junk hauling. Question guys If it wasn't junk hauling what business would you be interested in? Thanks
I know you have a dump ded,.. but a buddy of mine built a flat bed car hauler trailer into a box trailer. Any way,... be have me a great idea,.. are you ready for it??? He put rollers on the floor,.. you know the roll case conveyer style. That way when he would be at the dump. All he would do was open the back doors, back up, stop.... and the hole load would roll rite out the back!!!!! How do you like that???? !!!! Let me know lol
hahaha yea im sure your farts smell good? thats funny. but JOJO i am thinking maybe a food smell, or the coffee shop, or maybe your perfume that you forgot you put on this morning? or maybe you both just smell good.
They are people some hire to help organize their life. Some people don’t know how to organize their closet, garage or their life in general so they hire an organizer. We have a couple that call us when they are working with certain clients.
I have my own little junk haul business and everyone says I charge way to cheap I watch the video on how to price a job but I feel like it wasn’t really enough how much did you charge for that first job if you don’t mind me asking or you should like record all the trash n say how much you would charge for it
My family tells me that too, but you’ll eventually learn how to charge. Message other junk removal guys in your area with the junk picture and ask them how much.
@@SonomaStrong Awesome videos brother. I own a Landscaping company but after watching your videos I added junk removal to my business this past month and so far my best day is $850! Saving up money for dump trailers so I can start renting those out too. Going to be hard to keep up with landscaping, junk removal and dump trailer rentals this upcoming spring.
InShot is pretty easy to use, Matt does the editing, although we both have media experience and a good eye for the camera and a good feel for music and setting the mood etc… for filming
Idea from future videos: - What tools do you bring to the jobs? - Do you bring a rechargeable Sawzall? If so, do you use an inverter to keep it charged in the truck? - Also, do you make customerservice pay up front, or after you get your weight at the dump? - How do you advertise? - What invoicing or accounting type apps do you use? - How do customers pay you, and when? - Do you have an accountant that can write off all your income as depreciation to keep your taxes low?

Hey guys so you collect payment once you’ve loaded, or before? Or do you have there payment card in your system to charge after job is done?
We collect payment when the job is done.

Have you guys ever thought about doing estimates over zoom?
no we haven't, we have thought about holding some classes over zoom, like teaching people how to do things. like websites etc...

how much was it for a truck like that if you don’t mind me asking
with that lift up piece on the back of the truck
63k
Couple nice pieces of furniture at the last one :)

As business owner what do you do as far as health insurance for you and your wife?
We go through a private insurance, but keep track of what you pay because that is a business tax write off

So what do you charge per job.....who do you do an estimate
Every job is different depends on location - volume and weight
