Joseph Rubbish Removal was started in 1965 by Raymond S Joseph. Ray was a WWII veteran, the Truro Fire Chief and local bus driver. Ray ran the business from 1965 until 1993. His wife Marion O Joseph then carried on from 1993-2015. She established a personal relationship with her "catching ups" phone calls with her customers. Marion also ran and owned EZ Rest Cottages and the Pamet Yarn and Craft Shop. She also worked in the kitchen of the Truro Central School for a while. In 2015 the business was then handed down to her son Douglas Cox and his partner Pamela Donahue which they currently run and operate today.
