Meet the Family
Trash Retrievers isn’t just a name — it’s personal.
Our family has owned golden retrievers for decades, and our beloved Gracie inspired the brand. Loyal, dependable, and always looking out for others — she embodied the same values we bring to our work every day.
Founded by Kirk and Liz Salerno, Trash Retrievers is proudly family-owned and locally operated. With over 35 years in the waste industry, Kirk knew there had to be a better option for homeowners than dealing with big corporate trash companies. Together, our family built Trash Retrievers to be simple, fair, and rooted in community.
