SMT Holdings’ brands here are junk removal and mobile franchises. Each is franchised on its own terms, under its own agreement, so the cost to open, the fees and the record of each brand differ, even where the parent company is the same.

Fees and royalties across the brands
Every SMT Holdings brand here charges the same $50K franchise fee. The royalty is 8% of sales at every brand. The marketing fund is 1% of sales wherever it is a percentage.
A shared parent can mean shared suppliers, systems and support staff, but it rarely means shared terms: compare the agreements brand by brand, and ask whether owning one brand gets you anything when you buy another.
Sales per location and who runs it
Of these brands, 2 share earnings figures, but none as a yearly sales figure per location. None requires the owner to run it day to day; a trained manager can.
| Brand | Sales per location | Marketing fund | Who runs it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smash My Trash | Other figures | 1% of sales | A trained manager can run it |
| Heavyweight Waste | Other figures | 1% of sales | A trained manager can run it |
