Lightbulb 1-800-Got-Junk
Here's a link to a Fortune article about 1-800-Got-Junk, a trash removal service.

I like this idea because it's a classic entrepreneurship story: a company comes along to consolidate and modernize a pre-existing business model and becomes a leader.

I put this under "Business Opportunities" because they do offer franchises. Check it out.

Well...what if people already have a garbage removal service that comes twice a week to pick up trash outside of their houses? I guess this business would not work here...unless lots of people have emergencies.

These guys will come into your house to take your stuff. I'd imagine it's good for senior citizens.
