My main back round is in the moving/ trucking industry. I have over 17 years of experience dealing with top celebrities all the way down to people who are being kicked out of their homes. I face jobs where people had died in the home and their relatives are distraught all the way down to young happy couples buying their first home. I've cleaned out buildings of closed down offices all the way down to moving a mom and pop store into a larger space. I've been in places you only see on tv down to places that resemble hell.
Scrap metal and resale have been a byproduct for me for a long time. I've taken a whole semi load home from commercial cleanouts, stuffing my garage full of file cabts and servers. I get old electronics, furniture, odds n ends off of jobs constantly. When the economy tanked, I started roadside picking to keep myself afloat. With only a car I couldn't grab much. I decided to buy a pickup truck with scrap money I had made. I then purchased a trailer, took on a partner.
In 2008 I tried to start a junk removal co. After being in the moving industry for so long I thought it would be a logical move. I did not have the time to hold down a full time job and run a company, it was too much. I jumped with both feet in and realized I knew less about running a business than I thought.
Forward to today. In 2013 after much pre planning and research, I am looking to start not so much a junk removal but clean out co. By that I mean more estate removals, becoming a commercial vendor for store closures etc... I think all my prior experience will allow.me to.be successful, this time around.
