Ready to build a high-energy career where every day is different? Join our Field Sales & Service Team and help us deliver exceptional customer moments and powerful service experiences. We're Southwind— the highest-performing 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise group — built on integrity, accountability, and investing in people.

Junk Removal and Sales Training 1-800-GOT-JUNK? Locations in: La Puente, Glendale, and Santa Clarita Pay: $27–$30+/hour (Profit Share + Tips + $18.75/hr base) Job Type: Full-Time

Are you interested in getting into sales, but do not know where to start?

At 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, we train people from the ground up.

This is a unique opportunity to develop real-world sales skills in a fast-paced, active environment. Our customers already called us because they need help solving a problem. Your job is to build trust, create a great experience, confidently price the job, and close the sale on-site.

You will learn how to communicate with customers, overcome objections, negotiate pricing, and deliver excellent service, all while staying active and working with a high-energy team.

No cold calling. No sitting behind a desk all day. No chasing leads.

Just real conversations with real customers who know they need what we offer.

What You’ll Do:

• Provide on-site estimates and confidently close sales
• Build trust with customers through strong communication and professionalism
• Remove unwanted items from homes and businesses
• Work efficiently with a team to complete daily routes
• Deliver WOW-level customer service on every job
• Lift, carry, load, and maneuver items throughout the day
• Keep trucks clean, organized, and professional
• Represent the brand with energy, integrity, and professionalism

This is a great introduction to sales because our sales process is different:

Our customers already reached out to us because they have a problem they want solved. They know they are spending money. Your job is to guide the conversation, create value, and help them feel confident choosing us.

It is one of the best ways to build foundational sales skills:

• Communication
• Negotiation
• Confidence
• Customer psychology
• Relationship-building
• Closing

Many of our top performers go on to leadership, operations, recruiting, or higher-level sales roles.

What We’re Looking For:

Sales-Minded:You enjoy talking to people, building relationships, and persuading confidently.

Energetic:You like staying active and working hands-on instead of sitting behind a desk all day.

Customer-Focused:You care about delivering a great experience and helping people.

Dependable:You show up on time, work hard, and contribute positively to the team.

Strong Communicator:You can think on your feet, solve problems, and communicate clearly.

Requirements:

• Must be 21+ years old
• Valid driver’s license required
• Ability to lift 70–85+ lbs repeatedly
• Weekend availability required
• Reliable transportation
• Team-oriented attitude

No junk removal experience needed. We train you.

Schedule:

• 4–5 shifts per week
• 7–10 hour shifts
• Weekend availability required
• Typical start times are 7am or 12pm depending on business needs

Pay & Benefits:

• Hourly base pay
• Tips

• Advancement opportunities
• Full benefits package including Medical, Dental, and Vision
