Why We Built a Business That Lets Us Be Present

Why We Built a Business That Lets Us Be Present

Do you ever feel guilty taking a day off work to do something fun?

We used to.

But this week, we chose to slow down—and remind ourselves why we started this business in the first place.

Before Kick It Junk Removal, we spent over 20 years in our careers—one as an ironworker and the other as an electrical engineer. Those paths taught us a strong work ethic, but they also came with long hours and missed moments.

We knew we wanted something different for our family.

We built this business to create freedom—not just financially, but with our time.

Now don’t get us wrong—owning a business comes with a different kind of responsibility. You work harder in many ways. You carry the weight of making sure the bills are paid and your family is provided for.

But with that responsibility comes something incredibly valuable:

the ability to choose how you spend your time.

And that’s something we don’t take for granted.

Most days, you’ll find us working hard serving families across Kaufman County and Rockwall County, helping clear out homes, garages, and properties.

But every now and then, we get to step away from the job sites and head into the city—like our recent day at the Dallas Zoo.

It was one of those simple, perfect days—walking the trails, watching the animals, and enjoying way too much Dippin’ Dots ice cream (which, according to the kids, was the highlight 😂).

Moments like this refill your cup.

They remind you what all the hard work is for.

We love serving our local communities, whether that’s right here in Kaufman County, over in Rockwall County, or occasionally in Dallas.

Because to us, this isn’t just where we work—

it’s where we live, raise our family, and make memories.

Sometimes we’re here to serve our customers.

And sometimes… we’re here just to enjoy life alongside them.

And that’s exactly why we built this business in the first place.
