OUR STORY
Growing up, my brother and I watched our parents build their company called “McKinney Brothers Tree Removal.” Everyday they showed us what it’s like to follow our dreams and run a company.
When I (Kirk) turned 17, I was working at the local Needham Roche Brothers store getting paid minimum wage. I began to collect speakers from the local dump and when my room got too full, my Mom gave me the option to sell the speakers or throw them out.
So I started selling the equipment on Facebook marketplace, while also exploring junk removal with some workers at the dump to find more things to sell!
That’s when I called my little brother to see if he wanted to start our own junk removal company together. We went in 50/50 on a truck and started doing junk removal jobs around our community.
The jobs kept getting bigger and bigger, so we purchased our first dump truck and hired our first employee (a friend from high school!).
From that point on, we spent our time after school and our summers focused on building our business to help the community stay clean and provide opportunities to our generation to get work experience for great pay!
We even had to rent out a warehouse to store all of the items we collected and have a dedicated area where we could save items to donate!
Now, 4 years later, Junk Teens has 20 employees, 3 dump trucks and even a warehouse thanks to the amazing community who has supported our business!
