There's money in Junk

Posted by Francis Isberto | Labels: | Posted On Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 7:18 PM




It's a dirty business but there's money in it. Junk shop is one of the most disregard business in the entrepreneurship world. People always look at the clean ones and the easy ones. Little did they know that if you collect a lot of junk you can make serious money out of it. From metals to plastics to papers and rubber... everything can be converted into cash. You just need a large space to collect your junk.

And since we are Eco-friendly, the junk shop business comes hand in hand with the government recycling program.

Here is what you need:

Open lot or idle property (if you have no vacant lot look for an old warehouse that is for rent)
Weighing scale (Bascula)
50-kg. countertop/hanging weighing scale
2 Metal push-cart (cartilla)
Acethyline Torch and Gas Tank
Pulley
Tools (steel saw, pliers, vice grips, screw drivers, hammer, “baretta de cabra”, etc.)
Vehicle, pick-up-truck (an old jeep will do)

You need all the manpower that you can get; you need to assigned somebody to monitor the inventory and you need several helpers to carry those junks.

Sourcing of Potential Clients
Clients are recycling agents to whom the junkshop owner will be selling the junk items, which have been sorted and segregated. The junkshop owner must search the market for several possible recycling agents to get the best deal possible such as a lock-in period with regard to the buying price of a specific item within one month. Cost of delivery/pick-up also affects the price and should always be taken into consideration. The junkshop owner must bargain for the best deal possible and coordinate with the respective recycling agents as to the payment schedule and volume of deliveries or pick-up. You can talk to Barangay Captains and Village Managers get source of junk. One village alone can bring you a lot of junk.

Walk-in Procedure for Retailers
Retailers are the scavengers, with or without pushcarts, and residents of nearby communities and local business establishments.

Buying

Search for potential wholesellers who have by-products in their businesses that would fall under the categories that the junk shop owner would be buying.
Buy directly from wholesellers/establishments with by-products or junk items.
Tap scavengers by providing them wooden pushcarts (kariton) on the condition that you will have the priority of their junk products and these will be bought at a lower cost to cover for the cost of the cart.
Give incentives (e.g. allow advances up to a certain amount to maintain the in-flow of materials, with the limit on advance and up to the prerogative of the junk shop owner)

Selling
Sourcing of potential clients must be a continuous process.
The following are the basic factors to consider as to whom each type of item/material is to be sold: a) payment terms; b) schedule and volume of pick-up and/or delivery.
If there is a broker or agent for the client, it should be pre-agreed upon by both the Junk Shop and the Client that all payments should be made directly to the Junk Shop owner or his duly authorized representative.
