That's a great movie!

There's also Japanese anime series set in the near-future sci-fi about a small company that cleans up space debris, called "Planet ES"

Its actually called Planetes, which means "wanderers", and was the term the ancient Greeks used for the "wandering stars", i.e. other planets. I cannot recommend it highly enough! It starts out pretty slapstick, but if you're looking for something more thoughtful, just stick it out until after the ninja episode. I promise it's worth it.

Slice o' life in space, cleaning up trash. What's not to like? :)

Planets is amazing, through-out singe-season story with an unexpected bit of drama and similarly unexpected resolution with a twist.

Planetes is one of my favorite anime series. I think it's very well done. I highly recommend it!

Edit: If you have trouble finding a way to watch it [it's a bit obscure] please shoot me a dm and I can probably help you out.

Thanks for the suggestion. I do like Anime so I’ll definitely be tracking this show down

There is also a manga and anime, called Planetes, which is about salvaging and removing debris:
