It is such a pain to move someone in or out of their house. It usually requires a team of people who are close with the person that is moving, and sometimes not everybody is available. Sometimes moving companies are hired, yes, but they can consist of some old dudes that move really slow and are not motivated to get the job completed. If only there was a way to help people move in and out a lot quicker. Now, we turn to the people classified as collegiate men. They are full of energy and are usually looking for a chance to make a quick buck here or there, whether it be for textbooks, movies or going out to the bar. There is definitely a connection here.
“On a hot summer’s day in 2003, two college buddies borrowed a beat-up cargo van and dubbed themselves College Hunks Hauling Junk.” Withing a short period of time, College Hunks expanded its franchising efforts and took off across the United States and Canada. College Hunks is a moving service that will also haul junk out of your house if that is what plan you pick. This just goes to show that you can literally start a company off of anything and you really do not need any experience to make a living (for certain jobs, of course). Moving houses is definitely a pain in the butt, and it is awesome to see that a company with smiling faces and dedication to what they do is out there.
I think that this is one of the best company ideas out there, and it was created pretty much out of nowhere and without any experience. They had the concept of thinking about what people struggle with and decided to do the dirty work themselves. On top of earning a bunch of awards since the founding of the company, they have a very good reputation and always leave their customers satisfied. That is a critical part in the business realm; without happy customers, you will not get any business… no business, no revenue. The idea of College Hunks is very inspiring and creative. I would definitely consider using their business one day.

I love this business and its so applicable to me now. he should definitely keep expanding because there are so many that would use this service.
I really like this business idea. Built off of the American Dream where those who put in the most work will get the most out of it. Great example on how it is possible to make money doing anything.
What an innovative way to start a business! Personally, I find the name to be creative and amusing. I think that just this aspect of the business would spark interest in those who may not even be looking to move anytime soon. What is really interesting is how these two boys were willing to do the “dirty work”. I think so many people want to make money without actually doing the hard work, but these young entrepreneurs were not afraid of such a thing. Love this idea!
The name is definitely what draws me in on this one. The idea of the business is also very appealing and interesting. Its always a hassle to try and get a friend with a truck or a group of people with a free weekend to help you move and the alternatives are always very expensive. Great topic for a blog post!
I remember seeing these guys on Shark Tank and thinking they had a good idea to run with. Now, I see their ads all around where I live and even know people who have used this company!
