About Us

Welcome to Second Chance Junk Removal — a family-run, community-focused junk removal company proudly serving Danvers, MA, and the North Shore.

I’m Matt, founder of Second Chance. For nearly 18 years, I poured everything into my career. But when I recently found out there were benefits I’d never been informed about, it made me step back and rethink my path. That realization became the push I needed to pursue something more fulfilling — something built on transparency, honesty, and actually helping people.

That’s when Second Chance Junk Removal was born — not just to start a business, but to build something more than a business: something rooted in family, integrity, and community.

My wife (a nurse) and I are raising our three kids — twin 16-year-olds and a 7-year-old — right here in Danvers. And yes, that adorable dog in our logo is Kya, our rescue pup from Aruba who got her own second chance. She’s a reminder of what we stand for.

Why “Second Chance”?

Because we believe in new beginnings.

• Items deserve a second chance — through donating, recycling, and repurposing whenever possible

• People deserve a second chance — whether they’re clearing space, moving forward, or starting fresh

• Lives and homes deserve a second chance — free from clutter, stress, and overwhelm

What Makes Us Different

We’re not a franchise, a call center, or a giant corporate truck fleet. We’re your neighbors — and we treat every job like we’re helping a friend.

Our core values guide everything we do:

✅ Helping People — It’s the heart of this business and the reason we show up every day
✅ Honesty — Transparent pricing, clear communication, no surprises
✅ Hard Work — We roll up our sleeves and get the job done right

And we’re 100% judgment-free. Hoarding situations, emotional cleanouts, life transitions, or just a garage that got away from you — we understand, and we’re here to help with respect and compassion.
