I’m definitely rocking with you bro. I respect the hustle. I utilize all these platforms the same way to market myself. People don’t realize how important just going into rooms on Facebook and leaving comments is for you to gain more leads. Keep grinding
Uhaul and the fuel are all tax deductions, so you get ZERO maintenance headaches at a very low price. Plus Uhaul is in almost every town in the US, even extremely small towns, with a population of 1,000. It can't be beat. Don't use a Uhaul pickup truck, use the smallest box truck, that way you can lock up tools, and no tarps are needed.
In some areas uhall is an option for starters but not in the west coast .. Uhall charges 1.49 a mile plus 29.99 and taxes , fuel 5.5 a gallon .easyly spend 120 to 150 before you start making money. Plus dump fees 160 a ton.
Of course it's dependent on your area, just like junk removal pricing. But with the higher cost. In those cases, stack jobs or only take jobs that are 1/4+ and pocket profit until a pick up can be purchased to handle small jobs, then use the rentals for bigger jobs until once again, a trailer can be bought. Etc. My opinion though. Sounds like the only difference is $0.30-.40/mile extra and fuel is a little more.
Good video man! Humble beginnings are good because you taught yourself to only buy what you needed. I’m sure you have learned a lot about what worked and what didn’t since the beginning.
Few thousand dollars worth ha! Marketing was the biggest wasted money. Using google or Facebook ads without knowing how they worked properly, probably lost 2,000 ish on that.
What’s up my guy!! Loved the video and the knowledge. I definitely use the same tactics when talking with clients. I do junk removal out here in NYC. Check it out when you get a chance. I’m definitely tuned in with you my guy!! Keep running it up!!
@@clutterreductionjunkremoval Work is great. If you know NY you know there’s an abundance of junk so this is a great market. I got the whole tristate as my money maker. I’m loving it. Started off doing gigs apps and then graduated to cargo van life and that got me into junk removal and I love it bro!! Keep killing it out there
Not sure exactly what you’re referring to. I started to talk about vendor positions. A vendor is a go to service. So if I became a vendor for an apartment building, I’d be first to be used for their needs + first to be recommended to any residents that ask. You can ask places about that. Usually they’ll need a copy of your coi + you’ll need to fill out a W9
What do you think about starting with a 12 foot izuzu nqr box truck? The box is aluminum, dumps, and has a tommy lift in back. How does that size compare with the other companies ? Looking at that or starting smaller with an older landscaping silverado 3/4 ton with landscape bed that dumps.
I think you'd be starting off ahead of the game. Dump trailer/truck seems to be standard in JR. Not sure of size without other dimensions. Only thing to consider is lets say the 12' box truck is 500+ sqft for example, you can technically charge much more per load but when customers hear that price, it can be a turn off. They don't always understand the change in volume.
Auto commercial insurance is too expensive for junk removal business, I am trying to get Auto commercial insurance for my 2022 ford e350 cutaway box truck and they asking me 27K a year to insure my truck, that is crazy!
@@juanmontenegro2025 did you say you do other services? The box truck probably draws in more of a cost just based on the type of vehicle but 27 sounds way to high, even for a moving company. What company did you get a quote from? I’d double check the details you entered
that junk removal sign to help with the ugly u-haul look is honestly so smart! thanks for the idea
@@Brandon.Wasowicz just a little something to brand yourself. Better than nothing for a low cost

U-hauls are my only option when it comes to rentals. Can't beat the reservation ease as well.

I'm not familiar with NY but my wife is. We'll actually be there in December for a little visit. Maybe ill try to pick up a quick JR job ;)
@@clutterreductionjunkremoval Ok that sounds good man. Def let me know when you out here and I’ll set up a job for us to tackle.
What did you say right before the nine minute mark watched several times and can’t understand you but it seemed important. Thanks

Do you have any videos about vendor positions?
@@gregwead2169 I probably have a few that mention it but there’s not much to it.
