M & M Landscaping & Rubbish Removal, Inc.

M & M Landscaping & Rubbish Removal is a Winchester company that does both ends of yard work — landscape design and hardscape work on one side, weekly residential and commercial rubbish removal and recycling on the other. By its own account it is a second-generation family business, founded in 1976 by Chester P. Murphy Jr. with a single used 1963 Chevrolet dump truck, now run by his daughter Dawn Marie Johnson and her husband Gary Johnson. The one detailed review on file, from May 2026, describes Dawn and her team working collaboratively on a backyard redesign and calls the result professional and fairly priced. Two older reviews — quick response and reliable in 2023, and a bare best in 2021 — are shorter but also positive. The company holds Massachusetts Women Business Enterprise certification, verified active through 2027, and carries an A+ BBB rating, though it is not accredited and has no complaints on file either way. Owner Dawn Johnson also turned up in a 2026 local news piece speaking at a Winchester town meeting about transfer-station fees — not a customer account, but consistent with a business rooted in the town for decades. With only a handful of written reviews, there is not yet a deep public record to judge from, but what is there points to a long-running, locally embedded operation.
