Meet the Owner

Mauro Di Filippo has been the owner of Junk King Houston East since June 2020. He joined the Junk King family eager to continue growing the brand’s legacy and ready to bring a renewed energy to the Houston community. Aside from that, he has extensive knowledge of what it takes to run a business, keep the crew members’ best interest in mind and provide a quality customer experience.

Mauro was born and raised in Venezuela and spent much of his life there. In 1991, he graduated with a degree in business administration from a university in Venezuela and then went on to get a post-graduate degree in management. At the age of 21, he stepped in and took over the family print shop business after his father fell ill. Mauro ran the business for more than 25 years and was able to build it from two employees to 30.

While professionally Mauro has had many accomplishments, he has several personal ones as well. The biggest being that his two sons graduated with engineering degrees here in the U.S. Mauro also places a lot of value in personal time. You can find him enjoying the outdoors and cooking. So next time you see him, ask Mauro to share his favorite recipe with you.

“Although there has been progress made within the recycling business, there is still more that can be done and that’s what drew me to Junk King,” added Di Filippo. “The brand continues to make a conscious effort to keep items out of landfills by looking for innovative ways to repurpose or reuse items.”

Junk King Houston East will get any size job done while making sure all your junk gets disposed of properly and safely. The team maintains relationships with local recyclers, donation shops and nonprofit organizations so all items either get recycled, repurposed or donated giving them a chance to have another life.
