DrouCo has been serving Salem, NH families for over 50 years, and yard waste removal is one of the calls we get most often here. Salem's a different animal — denser, more retail, with apartment complexes and condos that turn over often. We handle everything from single-unit cleanouts off South Broadway to bigger jobs near the Rockingham Park area. Truck access can be tight; we plan accordingly. Whether you're in South Broadway or out past Tuscan Village area, we know the route — and we've been doing this work for three generations.
We remove brush piles, fallen branches, leaves, hedge trimmings, sod, mulch, small stumps, and storm debris. Common after a strong New Hampshire nor'easter or ice storm. Single-property cleanups or full-season debris haul-aways — we handle it all.

Why Salem calls us
Three generations, one phone number
DrouCo Waste Removal has been a family-run waste removal business in southern New Hampshire for over 50 years — three generations of the same family showing up, working hard, and treating every job like the customer is our neighbor (because usually, they are). That's not a marketing line — it's how we've stayed in business this long.
Posted an ad that I needed a Bureau picked up and Jake message me offering his expertise! He came out that same day, an it was such a great price and was great communication and will definitely be using in the future for any more junk removal!
