Casen Elmore

To most people, a trip to the dump is just a hassle, a chore to be done. but for Casen Elmore, it sparked a passion. What started as a normal errand with his dad became an idea that led to research, inspiration, and eventually, starting his own business removing junk. “I came back home that night, searched for the junk removal category, and just went from there,” Elmore said. “I viewed hundreds of videos, took notes, and on June 16, I had my LLC (Limited Liability Corporation) and was open for business.”
As graduation comes closer, Elmore intends to continue growing his business. “I definitely want to see it continue to grow over the next few years, perhaps even branch off into other ventures depending on how it goes,” he said.
Elmore’s team includes Joshua Reed, Durai Mahkuk, Wyatt Bartel, and Jesse Kimball. These are his friends, classmates, and new recruits who have come together with one common goal: getting the job done.
His business already has a positive reputation in the Polson community. They’ve participated in events such as the Parade of Lights and joined the local Chamber of Commerce. Elmore has also used Facebook groups and community events to promote his business and connect with other businesses in the area.
Casen Elmore states “The best can really come from out of nowhere and a normal trip to the dump might change your life forever.”
