Why Memphis, TN works

Why Memphis is a strong franchise market.

Memphis is Tennessee’s second-largest city and the seat of Shelby County, with a city population near 610,000 and a county past 900,000. Its economy leans on the FedEx World Hub and a deep logistics and distribution base, St. Jude and Baptist Memorial healthcare, the University of Memphis, and Naval Support Activity Mid-South in Millington, while its moving season is driven by logistics and medical hires, students, military families, and families trading up across the eastern suburbs. That mix keeps both moving and junk removal in steady demand across one concentrated Mid-South metro.

  • Local and long-distance moving
  • Apartment and student moves
  • Military relocation services
  • Downsizing and estate cleanouts
  • Home renovation debris removal
  • Commercial junk hauling

The engine

Two revenue streams, one team.

College HUNKS was the first company in the country to franchise moving and junk removal together, and in Memphis that pairing matters. One brand, one office, and one marketing engine serve a Germantown downsizing, a student move near campus, and a Collierville renovation cleanout, so one customer frequently becomes two jobs. That shared engine is what lets a single protected Memphis territory support steady, repeatable growth.

Why Memphis grows

A steady Tennessee market.

Memphis pairs some of the lowest housing costs of any major metro with steady turnover and a deep logistics workforce, the conditions that keep an essential-service business busy through the cycle.

  • City population near 610,000, county over 900,000
  • University of Memphis student turnover each year
  • Naval Support Activity Mid-South relocation activity
  • Median home prices in the $245K range across Shelby County
  • Large retiree and move-down base
Questions, answered

The Memphis market, in brief.

Who are the main moving and junk removal customers in Memphis?

Demand comes from several directions at once: University of Memphis students cycling through rentals each year, retirees moving down across the eastern suburbs, military families connected to Naval Support Activity Mid-South, and homeowners across the county handling renovations and downsizing. That variety smooths out the calendar.

Is there a peak moving season in Memphis?

Memphis moves all year, which is part of the appeal. Summer brings the student turnover and the peak of home sales, spring and fall bring the move-up and downsizing waves, and renovation and cleanout work runs steadily regardless of season. A single protected territory captures all of it.

Why run both moving and junk removal in this market?

Many Memphis customers need both. A family downsizing books a move and a cleanout in the same week, and a landlord turning a near-campus rental needs hauling and a move-out. Running both services out of one territory and one back office turns one lead into two jobs.
