I called Gershow to ask if I could drive one of my vehicles onto their scale to resolve a weight…read moreissue with the DMV. I also asked if the information on their weight ticket would be sufficient to satisfy the DMV requirements for vehicle weight. After receiving the "no problem" reply, I made the half hour drive over to their Lindenhurst facility to get the car weighed. I drove onto their scale, paid the requested ten-dollar fee, and received the weight ticket. This print-out contained the indicated weight, with no information linking the weight to either the vehicle or the driver (i.e., VIN number, license, vehicle type, etc.) In addition, the printer used for this was apparently in need of a new ink cartridge, as the weight reading was barely visible. When I presented the Gershow print-out to the DMV, it was immediately rejected. When I related to them the response from Gershow that their document was all that was needed, they replied "Gershow should know better." In the end, although the indicated weight on the form was 18 lb less than what I had presented to DMV as vehicle weight, my claim was rejected, and my trip to this recycling facility was a waste of time.

They were the ONLY business that were willing to pick up the car from my house, let alone same day - and came within the hour! The guy I spoke to on the phone was very nice, told me a price (which the most I have been offered based on my weeks of calling places). I panicked and had to call back as I remembered there was a specialty DVD player inside the car that had to be removed. My husband was at work and wouldn't be able to remove until later tonight. He told me don't worry, the guys who come do this all the time and they will remove it for me. He did a great job and cut all the wires very clean. In the end I got exactly what was quoted. The car was not in great shape, didn't start and was over 14 years old, but had everything that was needed. In my opinion, even if they offered me $50 I would take it, because towing a car away would cost more. I think it's common sense the price is subject to change based on the condition of the car upon arrival, which is why I'm shocked so many people used that to post a negative review. As someone who had a great experience with them, I would say to people looking to give them a call, don't let those negative reviews steer you in the wrong direction. And yes, I would still post this positive review if I didn't get the price quoted.

I said no thanks and the owner calls me back with a backhanded apology saying they were still in within the timeframe. Then he has the nerve to tell me I'm playing games because I said they could still come check out the car but I wasn't certain I would take the offer if it changed from my original quote.
