How We Became Junk Rescue
The Lightbulb Moment
In the summer of 2015, two brothers-in-law were on their way to New York to watch a baseball game. One brother was a government employee, and the other was a recent college graduate in a sales job he wasn’t really passionate about. During that two-hour car ride, they spoke about work and life, and a simple question was asked, “What would you do if you could do anything?”
This was the seed for an idea that would eventually become Junk Rescue. What grew from this simple question was a company that had two goals in mind – to create opportunities for the everyday person and to leave our community a better place than we found it.
The Planning Phase…
The rest of 2015 was spent spit-balling ideas, planning, waiting for the proper licenses to haul trash from the state, and deciding how we’d build our Junk empire. Fast-forward to July 2016, and our licenses had been approved! Our founders were at a crossroads. Was this just a fun thought exercise or an idea they’d actually move on? They obviously did the sensible thing… they became trashmen.
…Becoming Junk Rescue
One month later in August of 2016, Junk Rescue was up and running, based out of Cinnaminson, New Jersey. Our first headquarters was our founder’s bedroom, and our first warehouse was his parent’s shed. The street in front of their house was where we parked our modest one-truck fleet, and we’d like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize to their neighbors for the constant 6:30 AM wake-ups from our noisy trucks at the time.

Core Values
At Junk Rescue, we are guided by a set of core values that define who we are, what we stand for, and how we conduct ourselves in all aspects of our business.
These values serve as the foundation for our culture and guide our decision-making, helping us to achieve our mission and deliver value to our customers, employees, and stakeholders. It is vital that we recruit, hire, and promote based on these core values.
Always Learning
The Pursuit of Continuous Improvement both as individuals and as a company. Every task, every job, and every conversation is a new opportunity to learn something.
Once you stop learning, you stop growing and our purpose is to help each and every person on our team grow to new heights.
We encourage our employees to read books, ask questions, and embrace challenges. Work related or personal, self-education will move you miles ahead of those who don't invest in themselves.
Be A Professional
Professionals are personally accountable for their tasks, their team, and the brand’s image.
They are on time and reliable.
They listen to others, respect others, and lead by example.
They are the experts in their craft, take pride in their appearance and in every other aspect of their work.
Professionals always put the mission, the client first and conduct themselves with confidence & composure.
Be a Hero
Everyone has the ability to be a hero, but that doesn't mean you have to go out and save the world.
No matter the feat, big or small, we all have the power to create meaningful impacts on the people’s lives around us.
Simple things like going the extra mile for a client, covering a co-worker’s shift so they can make their son’s ball game, or simply smiling at a stranger can have massive effects.
Be kind, be selfless, be brave - be a hero.
Good Vibes Only
Most perceptions in this world are mental. You can’t control everything in your life, but the one thing you can control is your mindset.
Negative attitudes will only cancer your focus, your growth, and the people around you. This doesn’t mean bad things won’t happen and it doesn’t mean that they should not be addressed.
It means that in order to make positive change, it starts with a positive approach. When we approach each aspect of our day with positive vibes, those vibes make our company an incredibly enjoyable & powerful place to work.

If someone makes a mistake, we teach.
