The Junk Heroes - Junk Removal & Cleanouts

The Junk Heroes is a brother-owned junk removal and property-cleanout company serving Salem and the North Shore, run by Henrique and Filipe with a small crew that includes Rey and Luis. The names show up constantly in its own reviews — "Henrique and his team," "Enrique and Paulo," "Filipe and team" — because the brothers do much of the hands-on work themselves. The volume and consistency here are remarkable for a young company: 258 Google ratings average a perfect five stars, and the specifics repeat constantly across dozens of 2026 reviews — same-day or next-day response, upfront pricing with no surprises, and jobs finished fast without leaving a mess. Customers describe them clearing a basement full of junk and heavy or awkward items, hauling away an old chicken coop and run, cleaning up a garage, and emptying a storage unit in Danvers, sometimes within hours of the first call. Several reviewers specifically mention being rescued after another junk removal company never showed up, and more than one calls out the crew's careful handling of hazardous items like aerosols and cleaners. The last six months alone brought 128 reviews with none negative. The one exception is a February 2026 review, which alleged property damage during a job and called the crew inexperienced — it gives no specifics beyond that claim, and stands apart from everything else on file, including reviews from around the same period praising the same brothers by name for careful, professional work. For junk removal or a property cleanout on the North Shore, this looks like a well-liked, actively growing local operation with an unusually deep and current track record; as with any job involving valuables or finished surfaces nearby, it's still worth confirming how they handle liability for anything fragile.
