Overview
Southwind is a home services holding company that owns and runs a portfolio of franchise brands across the United States and Canada, including 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, You Move Me, Shack Shine, DreamLawn, and Fountain Comfort Group. It grows by acquiring established franchise businesses and using their systems and marketing to provide junk removal, moving, house detailing, lawn care, and HVAC/plumbing/electrical services to homeowners. The company differentiates itself by managing a multi-brand portfolio under one umbrella, offering centralized support and a unified customer experience, and by integrating services through OneOS Home, a membership platform that bundles multiple home services into a single payment. Its goal is to build a scalable, customer-friendly home services ecosystem that delivers reliable service, clear staff growth paths, and convenient bundled offerings for homeowners.
