JRH Featured on Nationally Televised Show!

In 2024, Junk Removal Heroes founder, Jay Watson, teamed up with Matt Paxton (from the long running show, "Hoarders", on A&E) to be featured in 2 episodes of his new hit TV show on The Discovery Channel, called Filthy Fortunes.

The episodes were filmed in Southern California in the cities of Perris and Big Bear, which were episodes 2 and 4, respectively, of season one of the show.  Junk Removal Heroes were brought in by the show's producers to handle the trash removal portion of the massive projects that were undertaken by Matt and his team.  The premise of the show is that the client will allow Matt and his team to split the profits generated by selling all of the hidden treasures and gems that are discovered while cleaning up the monumental messes.

There were definitely some very valuable and interesting finds at the two locations that the Junk Removal Heroes were on-site and on set for.  According to Jay, the most notable was a phantom World Series banner from 1986 that was signed by the Boston Red Sox baseball players.  The Red Sox actually lost to the New York Mets in game 7 after Bill Buckner's infamous "between the legs" error at the end of game six. 

All-in-all, over 140 cubic yards of trash, recycling and donatable items were removed by our team of hard working Junk Heroes!
