Re3Junk

I have chosen to do the Re3Junk removal service.


Since a team of experts remove, recycle, and repurpose junk…a recycling theme is necessary.

 I like this recycling logo better. It is more modern and not the typical recycling logo. However, I would still like to make this logo stand apart from others even more, maybe by adding an globe-like look to it.


I like this elephant logo a lot! I was wondering if I turned it to the side if it would look like a the "3" in Re3Junk
  



I will probably use this truck as inspiration for my final design. 
When thinking of a slogan, I automatically think, "We've got junk in our trunk."
I think that slogan would set itself apart from competitors and create something that sticks in people's minds. 




This logo actually has a little recycling feel to it. I could probably put the actual recycling logo around the 24/7. Since it is a full time service - it needs to have that information within the logo. 





Here are my sketches based on my previous inspirations I posted.

Here are the first-draft logos in both color and black and white. 






Here's what I have so far on my truck design. I chose something other than a "dump truck" because it needs to be differentiated from the city's garbage service. I like how the yellow pops out from the grey - I think it would definitely catch people's attention.
Also, I chose to use the elephant because they're strong and can lift things with their trunk. In addition, I think it fits the slogan: "We've got junk in the trunk"


The truck template that I downloaded didn't have a picture of the back, but when I find one, it'll look something like this. 





Here is one of the refined logos. I think this looks more realistic as well as easier to read. 


And here it is in black and white.



After a lot of thought and discussion, I simplified the logo even more. I added the knockout eyes, mouth, and stroke around the box. I also took out the lines on the trunk because they just weren't necessary.
