Seeing the potential of this seemingly simple idea, he bought a used pickup truck and started The Rubbish Boys. Over the next 10 years, the business blossomed in Vancouver, BC In 1999, the company's name changed to 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, and a new business strategy was implemented to facilitate rapid expansion.
