I needed to replace a toilet in my house and these folks had one that included everything I needed minus the tools of course.

It's always much more pleasant than driving to the big box store in Gunbarrel City. All of Tommy's employees are very kind and helpful These are great folks and worthy of your patronage.

Several interactions through phone with the owner me nowhere except he finally threatened to have me put in jail because I was complaining. Beware the cabinets are in terrible condition and cheaply made. They do not stand behind them. The cabinets have been in the house less than three weeks and the hip cracked chipped and several doors will not open and close because of the hinge adjustment system that are on them. I do not recommend. Buyer beware

Will not be back to this business. Today we arrived to pick…read moreup our RESERVED UHAUL Trailer that had been reserved for a week. First of all, as I came into the building an employee said the guy behind the counter will help me. Well, the "guy behind the counter" saw me and didn't acknowledge or greet me...no "I'll be right with you"...hardly ever looked up, used a walkie talkie to communicate in the back a few times, fidgeted in his chair, and finally... acknowledged me after 5 mins, then gave ME a piece of paper and told me to go to the back to write the trailer number on the paper because he couldn't find one in his system. I looked at him like "what"?! He called an employee to go get the number and employee came back to say there wasnt a trailer available (as we had reserved). The guy behind the counter (presuming the owner) said they didnt have one and I'd have to go to another Uhaul center to get one. I asked Where? He acted as if it wasn't his problem and that the other Uhaul had to give me a trailer. I wasnt feeling very confident at this point but fortunately the other Uhaul center just happened to have one and it was a fluke that it was even there. This other guy from Adam's Supplies blindly sent me over to this other center without even offering to call the other center to make sure there was one available. NO HELPFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE, extremely inadequate. Adam's Surplus has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. There is no problem resolution on their end whatsoever. The other Uhaul Center on 414 E Tyler St (across from Bacon Chev) that we were sent to, was impeccable and WANTED AND CARED about our situation and cared about having good customer service. I will never go back to Adam's Surplus ever, and will advise you to not waste your time, unless you enjoy rude, and inadequate customer service, then have it! Deplorable. No stars given. Unfortunately I am forced to give 1 star by Yelp otherwise there would be none.

Great service Great place. Love the atmosphere and variety, selection of products. Friendlyread more
