Description
In the wake of a disaster—be it a devastating house fire, a sudden flood, or persistent mold growth—families often lose more than just property; they lose the comforts of home. 1-800-Textiles stands as a beacon of hope in these moments, specializing in the high-tech restoration of garments, rugs, window treatments, and cherished family heirlooms. We aren't just a cleaning service; we are restoration specialists dedicated to returning "normalcy" to lives disrupted by catastrophe.
As a part of the prestigious Five Star Franchising family, 1-800-Textiles occupies a unique and lucrative niche within the multi-billion dollar restoration industry. While traditional restoration companies focus on structure and walls, we focus on the "soft goods"—the items that hold the most sentimental and practical value for homeowners. Our brand is built on a foundation of empathy, advanced chemical technology, and a streamlined business model that prioritizes efficiency and insurance-ready documentation. By joining 1-800-Textiles, you are stepping into a market-leading position with a brand that is synonymous with quality and compassionate service across the USA.
Why Invest in this Franchise?
Recession-Resistant Demand: Property damage occurs regardless of economic climates. Fires, floods, and storms create a constant, non-discretionary need for our services.
High Profit Margins: With average job revenues often reaching five figures, the "Hub and Spoke" model allows for significant scalability and strong returns on investment.
Innovative "Hub & Spoke" Flexibility: Choose between a full-service "Hub" (processing facility) or a lower-overhead "Spoke" (collection and logistics) model based on your investment comfort.
National Partnerships: Benefit from established relationships with major insurance carriers, who prefer working with standardized, reliable brands like 1-800-Textiles.
Exclusive Territories: Every franchisee is granted a protected territory, ensuring you can grow your local market without internal competition.
Background
- Founded: 2020
Franchising Since: 2022
Founders: Developed by industry veterans Kevin Loner and the leadership team behind Five Star Franchising.
Active Units: 61+ locations across the United States.
Headquarters: Ball Ground, Georgia.
Brand Journey: The brand was born from the success of its sister company, 1-800-Packouts.

It is now backed by the Princeton Equity Group, fueling rapid national expansion.
Support Training
We believe our success is tied directly to yours. Our comprehensive support system includes:

Pre-Launch Assistance: Help with site selection, facility build-out, and the acquisition of specialized cleaning equipment.
Operational Systems: Access to proprietary inventory software and "Bagout" protocols that make managing complex insurance claims seamless.

Ongoing Mentorship: Regular check-ins with field support teams and access to a nationwide network of fellow franchisees for knowledge sharing.
Ideal Candidate
We are looking for driven individuals who want to build a legacy while helping their community. The ideal candidate:
Business Mindset: Does not need a background in dry cleaning or restoration but should possess strong leadership and organizational skills.
Compassionate Professionalism: Someone who can handle sensitive situations with empathy, as clients are often going through one of the worst days of their lives.
Sales & Networking Ability: A "people person" capable of building trust with local insurance adjusters and property managers.
Investment Capability: Financial readiness to launch either a Spoke or Hub model in a high-demand urban or suburban territory.
