Wheelie
neat way to clean up in the bin business
Franchisors Markand Penny Campbell purchased
the (now rebranded) OZ Bin Cleaning master licence from the
UK-based parent company in 2001.
Both Mark and Penny were highly successful in their own prior careers. They were
confident that the OZ business model would work in Australia. However, rather
than rushing into franchising, they operated the business for four years so that
they could understand ‘‘on-the- ground’’ issues and success
factors.
Markand Penny continue to service the Northern Beaches area of Sydney.
Franchisees operate mobile units capable of cleaning and sterilising 200 wheelie
bins with 250 litres of water, easily with no mess or fuss. All water used is
filtered, recycled and disposed of in accordance with EPA guidelines.
Unlike (its few) competitors, OZ vacuum dries bins, eliminating the germ transference
that occurs during mop or towel drying.
The OZ mobile cleaning unit is designed to clean all types and sizes of bins
not limiting a franchisee's customer base to just owners of wheelie bins - offering
a total bin hygiene solution for all.
Entry into an OZ franchise costs $67,000, encompassing an exclusive territory
and unique mobile cleaning unit custom built here in Sydney.
The need - domestic and commercial - is certainly there and the price of the
service is generally affordable, while the technology makes it simple to get
volume pumping.
