Taken together, Junk King’s distinctive attributes separate it from its competitors, which are often characterized as unprofessional and unreliable. In fact, Junk King maintains the highest Net Promoter Score (NPS) for any service business in North America, a clear indication of the importance the company places on customer satisfaction.
“I have no doubt that Jim and Jennifer will bring success to Junk King in Des Moines. They have the passion and experience to expand the brand into a new territory,” said Michael Andreacchi, CEO and co-founder of Junk King Franchise Systems. “We are looking forward to supporting them as they grow their local operation.”
Unlike the majority of junk removal services, pricing for Junk King is based on the amount of junk removed. The brand’s trucks are 20 percent larger than the industry average, meaning there is no job it cannot handle.
To support Junk King Des Moines, the Marlins have leased a large warehouse that facilitates managing and sorting materials. Sixty percent of the junk collected is recycled, rather than being dropped at landfills.
