OUR STORY
Founder and CEO of O2E Brands Brian Scudamore did something big in 1989 when he started 1-800-GOT-JUNK?: he changed how the world views junk removal. He realized exceptional customer service combined with attracting the right people to own businesses within O2E Brands was the secret to success. Since then, he’s applied that magic formula to create multiple, globally admired home-service brands.
It all began in 1989, when Brian was stuck without a summer job and no way to pay his college tuition. He was waiting in line at a McDonald’s drive-thru when he saw a beat-up junk truck with “Mark’s Hauling” painted on the side. Something clicked, and he was inspired to spend his last $700 on a used pick-up truck and start his own junk removal service.
Over the next three summers, business took off. He invested in more trucks, hired student drivers, and set out to make his company a household name: 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, now known as the world’s largest junk removal service.
But he didn’t stop there. Brian saw that 1-800-GOT-JUNK?’s systems and processes could be applied to other home service industries. He was inspired to launch WOW 1 DAY PAINTING, and Shack Shine, taking painting and home detailing (that's window washing, gutter cleaning, power washing and Christmas light installations) from ordinary to exceptional and creating an exceptional family of brands that have helped hundreds realize their own dream of business ownership.
