We worked with kids to help them understand the importance of recycling to the environment. For the adults, we provided all the logistics and supplies to help them plant trees and shrubs around the park. In 2008 we will be doing this again!

1-800-GOT-JUNK? Franchise Branches into Commercial

When others see the recent economic woes as a time to scale back, Chris Gammill, franchise partner for 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, sees green.

The "junk" disposal specialty business has seen its gross revenues grow by more than 15% to about $400,000 this year thanks to a new business plan that is focusing on meeting the need of commercial property managers dealing with newly vacated space.

"We've found that this is going to be a great niche market for us," Gammill says. "In a downturn economy, people are still doing business, but people are moving to smaller offices. All of the furniture doesn't fit in the new office."
