Amaral Enterprises

Amaral Enterprises is a one-person, Salem-based trash and junk removal operation run by Carlos Amaral, doing residential and commercial trash removal, small demolition, recycling, snow removal and yard cleanup. The company's website describes itself as in business since 1981, though the Better Business Bureau lists a 1989 start date — the two sources don't agree on exactly how long it's been running, but either way it has a long history. The Better Business Bureau grade is A+, though the business isn't BBB-accredited. There isn't a written review on file yet, but in a 2025 Reddit thread, a Salem-area commenter recommended Amaral Disposal by name, calling them "great guys" and a local, Salem-owned business. With no detailed reviews yet, there isn't much to judge the actual work by beyond that one recommendation and the BBB grade — worth a quick call to confirm current pricing and availability before booking.
