College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving - Franchise

College Hunks Hauling Junk is the fastest-growing junk-hauling franchise and moving franchise in America. The company was started in 2005 by Omar Soliman and Nick Friedman, and it began franchising in 2008. Omar and Nick have been named two of the top young entrepreneurs in America by “Inc.” magazine. They literally wrote the best-selling book on entrepreneurship, co-authoring “Effortless Entrepreneur” to share the lessons, planning and strategies that have made College Hunks Hauling Junk an overwhelming success. College Hunks Hauling Junk has been named one the fastest growing companies in America by “Inc.” and has made “Entrepreneur” magazine’s list of top franchise opportunities for five years in a row and counting.

Our Ideal Franchisee/Candidate

Most of our franchise owners do not have prior experience in the junk removal or moving business. The majority of them are either coming from corporate America as managers, marketing or sales or are prior military. Individuals who have owned other businesses tend to do exceptionally well with our franchise model as well. We have doctors, accountants, pharmacists who own College Hunks franchises.

We are looking for “A-Players” to maximize the opportunity who are looking to do more than simply buy themselves a job. Our best owners are coachable, have a positive, “can-do” attitude, love working with 18-25 year olds, who embrace our core values and our world-class culture.

The numbers in the FDD are really impressive but most people buy our franchise because of our world-class culture, which is built on our 4 core values (building leaders, creating a fun, enthusiastic, team environment, always branding and listen, fulfill, delight).

The College Hunks A-Player:

• Has been successful in their career to this point
• Demonstrates Leadership ability
• Aligns culturally and values the company’s focus on the highest quality service and its core values.
• Is coachable
• Is likeable
• Is resourceful
• Is tenacious, driven and has grit

In short, we are looking for “A-Players” with a positive, “can do” attitude, a risk taker that will take our advice and put it into action.
