Andrew Littlejohn has always had a passion for business. He started his first company as a side business in Vancouver, Canada, at the age of 22, Alpha Carpet and Duct Cleaning. After working the business part-time for 2 months, he quit his full-time job and devoted all of his energy to his carpet cleaning business. Growing the business for the last 16 years and coaching employees to be their best was thrilling.

In the summer of 2017, Andrew called his business partner Mike Mulder, and they began brainstorming ideas for what type of company they could build next. The goal was simple: extreme customer value and excellent service that makes a difference in our world. But the vision doesn't end there. Andrew also has a passion for coaching people to be successful at running their own business through franchising. A week later, Skunky’s Junk Removal was created. With a name like “Skunky’s” they wanted to make junk removal fun!

Skunky’s Junk Removal grew quickly! Within a few months, Andrew was hiring new employees and adding a second truck to his fleet. Reflecting back, he recalls seeing it come to life: “We built a great customer base and were giving truckloads of donations to the Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill, and a number of other charitable organizations." We plan to do the same in every geography we expand into.”
