STAMFORD, Conn. — Sustainable junk-removal service The Junkluggers recently ranked in Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500®, the world’s first comprehensive franchise ranking. The Junkluggers placed #321 for its outstanding growth, financial stability, and brand power. It’s the first time that The Junkluggers have made this list.

“It is a tremendous honor to rank among such a prestigious collection of companies,” said The Junkluggers founder and CEO Josh Cohen. “We are proud to have the experience, the corporate team, and the passion to help others achieve the dream of small business ownership with the company that is the leader in sustainable junk removal in a growing service industry.”

The Junkluggers was born 15 years ago when Josh started using his mother’s SUV, going door-to-door handing out flyers. The company endeavored to provide an eco-friendly alternative to junk removal. Growing from a small, grassroots business to a national franchise, the brand can be found in more than 60 markets and 13 states with approximately 70 trucks on the road.

Now with offices internationally, the Tutor Doctor vision is becoming a reality, positively impacting students and their families worldwide.
