How much does a CRS Packout franchise make?

CRS Packout is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure is $537,713 in average unit revenue — read it alongside what Item 19 says about which units it covers (often only mature or top-performing locations). See every cleaning & restoration brand that discloses earnings in the Cleaning & restoration franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

CRS Packout franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come CRS Packout's 7% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a CRS Packout franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "CRS Packout franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. On $537,713 of revenue, a 7% royalty alone is about $37,640 a year before any other cost.

CRS Packout lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

We do not publish a litigation answer for CRS Packout. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.

CRS Packout closures & failure rate

Before you sign, CRS Packout will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what CRS Packout's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a cleaning & restoration of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. CRS Packout's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 2.7%, against a cleaning & restoration median of 4% — at or better than the category. Net franchised outlets moved +39 to 76 in the latest reported year.

Who owns CRS Packout?

CRS Packout's franchise is offered by CRS Franchising, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

CRS Packout discloses unit earnings in Item 19, but that figure is revenue — sales — not profit.
