The Junk Heroes is a Salem, Massachusetts crew built for one job: hauling junk out of a house, not hauling furniture between houses. Despite turning up on a moving-services search, brothers Henrique and Filipe run a cleanout and junk-removal operation — clearing basements, garages, apartments, and construction debris rather than relocating anyone's household. Across 244 Google reviews logged since 2025, the pattern barely wavers: a same-day or next-day response, a flat quote on arrival, and a crew that sweeps up before leaving. In the last six months, customers describe a basement "full of junk and trash" with "heavy and/or awkward items" cleared out and swept afterward, a couch carried down from a walk-up apartment "quickly and easily," and living-room furniture removed carefully after a same-day estimate. One customer needed an old chicken coop and run taken from a backyard; another needed a storage unit in Danvers cleared out fast. The crew handled both the same way: quick, tidy, and on the price they quoted. There is essentially nothing negative on the record — zero negative reviews among 148 in the last six months — and the volume holds up across five separate sources, not just one. The one thing worth knowing before calling: this is not a moving company. If the job is packing up a household and driving it across town, this isn't that crew — call an actual mover. If the job is clearing out what's left behind — a cleanout, a basement dig-out, construction debris, a piece of furniture that won't fit down the stairs — the record here is about as deep and consistent as junk-removal reviews get.

Henrique and his team came out today and did an amazing job. Communication was great from start to finish, and they moved my junk out of my apartment even in the rain without any issues. They were fast and gave transparent pricing right on the spot, no surprises. I called on Friday and they were able to accommodate me by Saturday afternoon, which I really appreciated. Since they’re local to the area, it’s super convenient, and I’m sure I’ll be booking them again in the future. Highly recommend Henrique and his team. Great work, and thanks for cleaning up my mess! 10/10 worth it!

The Junk Heroes were fantastic! They answered my request promptly, came out the next day, and provided a very reasonable quote for the old junk I had them remove. They even let me throw a few small extra items free of charge! I know there are big companies out there, but I love supporting local businesses! Will definitely use them again!

Appointment was initially for a consultation but ended up doing the job right on the spot. Quick, professional and genuinely nice guys. Pricing was very fair. From the person who made the appointment to the guys that showed up, it was a great experience. Will use this company again and I highly recommend their services.
