WHAT IT COSTS.
Transparent numbers, straight from the 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document. No surprises, no buried fees. Here’s exactly what it takes to open a College HUNKS location.
WHAT YOUR INVESTMENT INCLUDES.
Every dollar below is documented in the 2026 FDD, Item 7. Ranges reflect market-specific variables like real estate and vehicle costs.
Covers franchise fee, equipment, vehicles, initial marketing, working capital, and training.
One-time fee for the brand license, protected territory, training program, and system access.
Minimum cash or liquid assets required to qualify. SBA loans frequently used for the balance.
WHERE THE MONEY GOES.
The investment covers everything you need to open and operate for the first several months. No surprise costs after signing.
The total initial investment ranges from $203,100 to $355,500. That range exists because costs like real estate, vehicle leasing, and local marketing vary by market. The franchise team walks through every line item during discovery so you know exactly where your number falls.
WHAT’S IN THE INVESTMENT
Every College HUNKS franchise operates two distinct service lines from a single location: junk removal and local moving. The initial investment covers everything needed to launch both.
Key details
ONGOING FEES AND ROYALTIES
The royalty is 7% of gross revenue. The brand fund contribution is 2% of gross revenue. Both are standard for the franchise industry and fund the national marketing, call center, and technology platform you rely on daily.
“The brand gave us a system. The culture gave us a team that actually wants to show up.”
College HUNKS is an SBA-approved franchise brand, which means lenders have pre-vetted the business model. Many franchisees finance a portion of the investment through SBA loans. The franchise team can connect you with lending partners familiar with the brand.
