Junk Hauling
Wasn't sure where to post this, so I figured off topic might be the best bet.
I have been wanting to expand my recycling business, and the area I live in (Northern Virginia) is a huge area for real estate investing.
You see foreclosures every where, remodels every where, additions being added and so forth.
What I am looking to do is getting with investors, banks, whoever that has foreclosures and to bid on their junk removal jobs.
Only issue is, I am not sure who that would be.
I have heard people talk about a few big companies that get foreclosures in all the time, but never any names.
If anyone has any ideas on the type of companies to contact, I would be appreciative.

George, you are not allowed to advertise your website except in your signature. I'd edit my post if I were you before BP does it for you and dings you for influence points.
Having said that, start by going to real estate investor assn meetings in your area. You will need to be able to respond quickly, because when a rehabber closes on a deal, the demo starts the same or next day.
Once you get to a REIA, you'll be able to find the local companies who handle hud properties, and perhaps connect with the companies who handle winterization and securing properties for the banks.
