JDog Junk Removal & Hauling Now Serving Virginia Beach

Local Entrepreneur Hopes to Employ Fellow Veterans, Veteran Families with New Business

JDog Junk Removal & Hauling, a national franchise organization dedicated to providing business ownership opportunities to veterans and relatives of veterans, is now serving the Virginia Beach community. JDog provides junk removal and hauling services to both residential and commercial customers, delivering service the military way: with respect, integrity and trust.

The new JDog will primarily service Virginia Beach and is owned by Navy Veteran, Keith Green and his wife Angela. JDog Junk Removal also services the surrounding Hampton Roads area. Green served in the Navy for 24 years as an Aviation Ordnance Technician. After returning to civilian life, Green went on to serve his community as a Sherriff’s Deputy and Federal Security Officer before deciding to follow his entrepreneurial spirit with his family, finding the perfect opportunity in JDog. Originally from Louisiana, Keith Green and his family have lived in the Hampton Roads area for over 15 years.

β€œI was immediately attracted to the JDog business model, as it directly aligns with the core values and comradery I experienced in the Navy,” said Green. β€œI take pride in being able to give back to the community, while providing meaningful employment for local Veterans.”

JDog awards franchises exclusively to military veterans and their family members. Franchise owners operate easily recognizable, camouflage vehicles and trailers and wear military-style uniforms. JDog recycles and repurposes a substantial amount of the material they pick up. The Philadelphia-based company works closely with local and national organizations, as well as local schools, churches and hospitals to donate useful items to those in need.

β€œJDog credits its success to the idea that when given the choice, people will hire a veteran,” said Jerry Flanagan, founder of JDog. β€œJDog teams serve and support their local communities under the ethics of respect, integrity and trust – a true reflection of military morals.”
