Brian Scudamore Biography

Brian Scudamore is one of the most popular and richest Businessperson who was born on March 16, 1970 in San Francisco, California, United States.

Brian Scudamore ( (1970-03-16 ) March 16, 1970 (age 50) ) is an American–born, Canadian entrepreneur. He is the founder and CEO of O2E Brands, the parent company of 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, WOW 1 DAY PAINTING, and Shack Shine. He is a regular contributor to Forbes, writing about small business ownership, franchising, and building corporate culture. His first book, WTF?! (Willing to Fail): How Failure Can Be Your Key to Success, was published in 2018.

In 1989, Scudamore was waiting in line at a McDonald’s drive-thru when he noticed a gritty pickup truck advertising a junk removal service. Scudamore, thinking he could haul junk to pay for college, invested $700 from savings to purchase a truck and started his own business. Calling it The Rubbish Boys (tagline: “We’ll stash your trash in a flash!” ), he would go door-to-door and patrol alleyways for junk that the city wouldn’t take. The business took off faster than he expected, often requiring Scudamore to duck out of class to take calls. Because he felt he was learning more about business through experience instead of school, he dropped out to focus on the company.

Brian Scudamore was born on March 16, 1970 in San Francisco. In high school, Scudamore struggled with reading and had trouble completing a grade 8 math class. When he failed, he decided to drop out. Despite not finishing school, he somehow persuaded Concordia University’s admissions department that he would be a good fit for their business program, and they accepted him! Scudamore would soon leave Concordia two years later to attend the University of British Columbia and be geographically closer to his business. His father, Charles Scudamore, MD, FACS, FRSCS, a liver transplant surgeon, was disappointed when Scudamore dropped out of university in 1993 to focus on rubbish full time.
