This review gets 1 star, only because its requires to write the review!! My husband contacted this place a few weeks ago to clean out our garage as well as some debris from a deconstructed deck. We sent in pictures and video to the owner Jorge, We were quoted a price of $395. They guys came this morning to load the stuff and lo and behold, the owner calls and says the price is now almost $1,300!!! He states that the prices have gone up 30% (mind you this is more than a 200% markup on the original price!) and that the amount of stuff we have is more than he though originally. This is the problem I have with this: 1) We sent in pictures and video of the load that needed to be taken away, and were quoted a price based off of that. The owner claimed that he did not have any pictures/videos from us and that all communication from clients auto-deletes after 30 days. We proved to him that our original texts to him were from July 8th (today is July 27th) so if that were true, he should still have the texts!! However, he still could not produce the texts. But we could!!
2) If you did not have any texts/ videos from us, how were you able to give us a quote in the first place? What was it based off of? I would have to then assume that you gave us any price, knowing that you would send your guys out then once they start loading, call us and give us a totally different outrageous price, hoping that we would be desperate and pay it anyway. Which is exactly what happened, only we did not fall for it!!
3) I too, am a business owner, and understand the nuances of operating a business. Under no circumstance, is it ever ok, to mislead a client and put them in a position where you quote them 1 price and then price gauge, and quote them a totally different inflated price without any fore-warning. This is all around bad business acumen, shows you to be less than a trusted business owner, and leads to situations just like this- where potential loyal clients will gladly take their business elsewhere and make sure others are aware of your "business" ethics and practices so that they can make better choices as well. By the way, I would have paid $2K for the services, if that is what it was worth and if that is what was agreed upon initially. So yes, it was about the unreasonable jump in price, but it was much more about the way the owner tried to get the upcharge, with no transparency or communication to the client and in such a sleezy way. Bad business all around!!!! read more
