In a recent interview with WTVR, Ellen and Mustafa Browne, franchisees of JDog Junk Removal & Hauling, discussed why they chose the junk removal brand and how they achieved so much success. The couple met while they were both deployed overseas. When they came home, they decided to get married and open up their own franchise with JDog Junk Removal & Hauling. The Browne family wants to hire other veterans as they continue to grow with their business.
