What's in that number — and what isn't
The $30,000 – $157,250 range is derived from J Dog Junk Removal & Hauling's filed initial-investment disclosure (FDD Item 7 class): build-out, equipment, and opening costs as the franchisor stated them. Your market's real estate, labor, and build-out prices can land you outside it.
Not in the opening number: the ongoing royalty of 2% on sales, the ad-fund contribution of up to 2%, and your operating losses while the unit ramps. Every figure marked "Not disclosed" above is a gap in the filings, not a zero.

What about earnings?
We don't publish per-brand earnings figures — for J Dog Junk Removal & Hauling or anyone else. The only primary source is Item 19 of the brand's own franchise disclosure document (FDD), and no law requires a franchisor to publish one, so the "average owner income" numbers circulating elsewhere are usually unsourced or survivorship-biased. Ask J Dog Junk Removal & Hauling for its current FDD and read Item 19 yourself — and if there is no Item 19, that silence is information too.
