JDog Junk Removal & Hauling Opens First Missouri Location in St. Louis

JDog Junk Removal & Hauling, a national franchise organization dedicated to providing business ownership opportunities to veterans and relatives of veterans, is now serving the St. Louis community. JDog franchisees provide junk removal and hauling services to both residential and commercial customers, delivering service the military way: with respect, integrity and trust.

The new JDog marks the first in the state of Missouri, and will service the St. Louis metropolitan area, including South County, Fenton, Kirkwood, Crestwood, Affton and Arnold. The business is owned by Army veteran William Megl, who served six years in the Army before starting a career in banking. When he and his wife, Ellen, decided it was time to switch paths and open their own business, Megl knew JDog’s veteran-centric model was the perfect fit.

“When I came across JDog, I was immediately drawn in by the parallels between the business model and the core values the Army instills,” said Megl. “JDog values camaraderie, trustworthiness and professionalism, and I couldn’t be more excited to bring this upstanding business to my community.”

To celebrate JDog coming to St. Louis, there will be a grand opening ceremony held at the VFW Post 2593, located at 2301 Church Rd. in Arnold on Wednesday, April 19. The event will take place from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. and will be catered by Pappy’s Smokehouse.

JDog awards franchises exclusively to military veterans and their family members. Franchise owners operate easily recognizable, camouflage vehicles and trailers and wear military-style uniforms. JDog recycles and repurposes a substantial amount of the material they pick up. The Philadelphia-based company works closely with local and national organizations, as well as local schools, churches and hospitals to donate useful items to those in need.

“JDog accredits its success on the idea that when given the choice, people will hire a veteran.” said Jerry Flanagan, founder of JDog. “We’re thrilled to be bringing the brand to Missouri, and know the St. Louis area will appreciate our ethics of respect, integrity and trust – a true emulation of military morals.”
