ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Two BELFOR Franchise Group brands, 1-800 WATER DAMAGE and redbox+ Dumpsters, have been named as Top Franchises for Veterans in 2023 by Entrepreneur Magazine, a leading business magazine that focuses on the culture, mindset, and lifestyle of entrepreneurship.

“We value our veterans and want to ensure they receive the respect they deserve within our franchising system,” said BELFOR Franchise Group Senior Vice President of Franchise Development Doug Smith. “Veterans frequently possess many of the qualities we look for in potential franchisees. They are industrious, able to adhere to a system and motivated to serve others. We are proud that these BELFOR Franchise Group brands have achieved this honor.”

Entrepreneur chose the final list of 150 franchise brands after considering the veteran incentives offered by each company, the methods employed to attract and support veteran franchisees, and the respective rankings of each company in the 2023 Franchise 500.

“It is truly an honor to consistently welcome veteran members to our fast-growing franchise network,” said 1-800 WATER DAMAGE President Tim Fagan. “This is a testament to our commitment in providing excellent opportunities and support for veterans looking to enter the business world.”

Director of Operations, Sean Foley, said redbox+ Dumpsters is proud to be recognized as an Entrepreneur Top Franchise for Veterans.

Roll-off Dumpster Rental Company Identified as Fastest-Growing Franchise; Supporting Nationwide Growth by Adding Key Team Members.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Since its inception, redbox+ has become the answer to the construction, renovation, and restoration industries’ woes on how to keep job sites clean and efficient.

The brand’s innovative, patented roll-off dumpsters as well as its promise of delivering them on-time has led to tremendous expansion for redbox+ over the past year. It wrapped up 2021 with upwards of 300 franchise territories and over 80 franchisees across the country. By the end of 2022, redbox+ is expecting another year of double-digit unit growth by adding individuals to the franchise system who have a desire to be independent, and are dedicated to providing the highest level of customer care.

“Our franchisees are proud to live and share the redbox+ story every day. We have a special system of individuals who come from various professional backgrounds — but what brings us all together is our mission to lead the industry in customer service and quality of support,” said Tim Fagan, President of redbox+. “We’ve found that once customers try redbox+ and experience our service combined with our unique line of roll-off containers, they stay with redbox+.”

Since becoming a part of the BELFOR Franchise Group, the company has invested in bolstering its redbox+ franchise support team in order to have a strong foundation for its continued national expansion. The brand recently added new regional business coach Aaron Stone, and Stephan Taub, as franchise development director. Another recent hire is Alex Trent, who brings strong overall marketing experience as marketing coordinator.

As opposed to other dumpster rental companies, redbox+ provides a wider variety of roll-off containers, including its patented combined roll-off dumpster and portable toilet “Elite” product line. Redbox+ holds a 90 percent retention rate with contract partners and has a growing residential DIY sector with whom its smaller roll-off dumpsters are very popular. Additionally, franchisees are supported by ongoing national marketing, local marketing tools, operational business coaching, and a franchise model that provides low labor costs.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — BELFOR Franchise Group (BFG), the world’s largest residential and commercial services franchise group, today announced its acquisition of redbox+, a leading waste management solutions company that offers the industry’s only combination dumpster roll-off and portable toilet containers for rent for commercial, industrial and residential project job sites. The acquisition allows BELFOR Franchise Group to continue to strengthen and expand its overall service offerings through redbox+’s innovative approach to waste management needs.

With nearly 300 franchise units nationwide, redbox+’s patented 2-in-1 roll-off container comes with both a dumpster and a portable restroom. This unique offering provides construction, renovation, and restoration companies with a simple solution to keep their job sites clean and efficient. OSHA requires that toilets are provided for employees at all construction sites, which keeps redbox+’s services in high demand. Current and future redbox+ franchise owners will benefit from the strong support team and systems at BFG, a division of BELFOR Property Restoration (BELFOR), the world’s largest disaster restoration company.

“We are thrilled to welcome redbox+ to the BELFOR Franchise Group family,” said Sheldon Yellen, CEO of BELFOR. “Redbox+’s one-of-a-kind combination system – and the cost-savings it provides – has attracted contractors for over a decade. We’re proud and excited to have been chosen by redbox+ as the best partner, especially considering how well their core offerings complement the array of services our other brands provide. The addition of redbox+ strengthens our growing portfolio of industry-leading home services franchises by enabling us to meet the needs of even more customers and better serve the communities that need us most.”

Across the country, redbox+ currently operates thousands of roll-off trucks and containers hauling thousands of tons of waste daily for its customers. In addition to the 2-in-1 roll-off container, redbox+ also offers 20-, 30- and 40-yard containers, as well as a smaller, 10-yard container for consumer DIY and waste removal projects.

“Redbox+ offers a unique opportunity for franchisees interested in growing a business in a niche, in-demand industry,” said Patrick Kiessling, President of redbox+. “I have witnessed the evolution of the waste management industry over the past 10 years and truly see the value in franchising – which is why I am proud to join forces with BELFOR Franchise Group. Having the backing of respected industry leaders at BFG and BELFOR will help our current and future redbox+ franchisees meet and exceed their business goals.”

“It’s been both exciting and rewarding to lead redbox+’s phenomenal growth in recent years, which has been fueled by our innovative offering and our passionate franchisees,” added exiting CEO Josh Skolnick. “Under the umbrella and stewardship of the BELFOR Franchise Group, I’m confident the future for redbox+ is brighter than ever.”

For more than a decade, BFG has empowered entrepreneurs to own businesses that are designed for growth by offering industry-leading training, support and equipment, proven business models and ongoing coaching and business development. Redbox+ is the company’s 11th service-based franchise in the U.S. and Canada. Notably, BFG is the only residential and commercial services franchisor owned by an operating company, BELFOR, and franchisees across all 11 brands benefit from the strength of the growing network. This continued growth positions the organization to better serve its vast and diverse customer base.

All redbox+ locations will retain the redbox+ brand name and the company will continue to operate and conduct training out of its existing facility in St. Charles, MN.
