    Wonderful experience. Quick. Thorough and great attention to detail. I would highly recommend this…read morecompany to the public. Best.

    Everything went smoothly until it came time to pay--and that's when the problems began. Ramon…read morehimself came to our home to give us a quote. He saw the number of items we had and was told exactly where the truck would need to park. Despite this, when it came time to settle the bill, the movers claimed the quote only included FIVE boxes--when in reality they moved well over 100--and that the walking distance was underestimated (100ft vs. 300ft). A two bedroom apartment with only five boxes? Seriously?! They tried to up charge us by more than $700 at the very last second, after everything was already off the truck. When I called Ramon, he was nothing like the friendly guy who came out originally. Instead, he acted clueless, dismissive, and nothing like the guy I first met. On top of that, once we started unpacking, we realized some boxes were missing entirely, and our beige couch had been delivered with stains. They had wrapped the mattresses, but not the couch--an obvious oversight. When I complained, they offered me a laughable $50 credit. After pushing back, they grudgingly increased it to $100, which doesn't even begin to cover the hassle and damage. Between the attempted last-minute price gouging, the lost boxes, the damaged furniture, and the dismissive attitude, I would never use this company again and cannot recommend them to anyone.

    This review is based mainly on the functionality of the website and their hidden pricing tactics…read more I'm writing this so others can avoid the mistake I made and be better informed consumers (see pics for pricing). I needed to get rid of a couch. It's an L-shaped 'sectional' couch in the sense it has two pieces that slide together. However, it is overall not too big (both pieces approx 6 feet long by 3 feet wide). It's made of run of the mill fabric and all cushions and pills are removable. It's incredibly light weight. Options I considered were Facebook marketplace, donating to Salvation Army or Habitat for Humanity, or a junk removal service. I didn't want to deal with strangers on Facebook marketplace, so figured I'd save that for last resort. Donating to Salvation Army or Habitat for Humanity seemed like the best idea. However, the Habitat for Humanity website is rather difficult to navigate and I struggled to find an easy way to schedule a pick up. Salvation Army offers a pick up service, but they only come on Fridays (in my area) and there's no timeframe given. Thus, I found myself on the 1-800-GOT-JUNK website which has several problems of its own. The biggest, though, is the lack of transparent pricing. After following some links saying I could get a quote by entering basic information, I was surprised to find out that instead of receiving a quote online, I had actually booked an in-person appointment. This seemed incredibly misleading, but I figured might as well have them come out, that way they are already here and can take the couch. Looking back, this is exactly what their marketing scheme is because it's a lot harder to tell someone "no" in person, when they are standing there willing to haul something away. I did end up getting a coupon via email, and added that to my appointment. However, on the day of the appointment I was told the coupon was not valid because of the fine print, which states "Valid for participating franchises only. Offer not valid on standard item pricing or minimum loads. No cash value. Cannot be combined with any other promotion. Not applicable to booked or scheduled jobs." The key part is 'offer not valid on standard item pricing,' which apparently removal of a couch is consider to be part of their standard item pricing. Welp folks, it costs a lot more than you could imagine to get "junk" hauled away. Because my couch has two pieces and is therefore a 'sectional', the price was $238. The crazy thing about this is that for an individual couch, the removal fee is $109. That's right, you could have 2 separate couches removed for a cheaper price than 1 two-piece sectional. I pointed this out to the employees who came and they agreed it seemed silly. I even asked if they would consider my two sectional pieces as two individual couches to save some money, but that didn't work. I understand that some "sectionals" may have more than 2 pieces, might be made of leather, with potentially reclining seat features that make it incredibly heavy. For that, I would understand charging more than two individual couches. But it just seemed astronomical for how small and lightweight my couch was. The most frustrating part is that I fell for their hidden price, on-site quote tactics and ended up just saying screw it, they're already here and can take my item right now, so I succumbed to the $238 fee. But, the rest of the day I had a huge pit in my stomach realizing how much I had spent to remove a couch. Am I glad the couch is gone? Yes. Do I feel like I got absolutely fleeced? Also yes. Would I ever use 1-800-GOT-JUNK again? Absolutely not, I'd rather take my chances leaving my item near an alley dumpster. If I had it to do over, I would rent a U-haul and take it to a donation center myself, as this would have been way cheaper. The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars instead of 1 is because the employees were extremely friendly and respectful. They communicated well leading up to and on the day of my appointment. I hope this review helps others, and at the very least, allows others to be informed of their prices via the uploaded pictures.

    I just want to say my husband and I very much appreciated these two young men. They worked hard,…read morethey worked steady, and were very respectful of us and our things. Thank you to Chris and Daniel. I don't plan on moving again, but if I would, I would call these two.

    Horrid. Not only did they under quote by more than half. It took them 12 hours to move a 4 bedroom…read more Never in my life has a move ever took that long and never have we ever hired help prior. They scratched items, broke items, moved like snails, smoked in the truck (we're nonsmokers). They are a very unprofessional bunch. I wouldn't use them to move a rock from my yard........ So it all started when we were moving from our old place to our new location. We looked into local movers to help save costs being there is nothing cheap about moving. So there were a few companies that made the list. And well we pulled the trigger on one. So the day of moving they showed up an hour and a half before the truck ever showed and just second handled the boxes in our garage to the middle of our driveway. The job was supposed to start at 8:30am, but the truck showed up at 10am. Wasting away this time I thought well they aren't off to a good start. As time continued on, it happened more and more. One of the guys left at 2pm. They smoked inside the back of the truck and we are non-smokers. The "packer" was too short so she constantly needed one of the taller guys to help making the job take longer while she merely said put that box here, now put that box there. As time progressed on and we zoomed right past the quote of five hours with ease I told the family that we should help as they charge hourly and evidently are incompetent to complete this on their own. Twelve, yes I said twelve hours later it was done. That's not all. To expedite them on their way not only did we help, but our garage was packed with boxes instead of the boxes going to the rooms to speed things up. What have I learned? Well for starters small local movers are a JOKE!!! I would stick with the big known companies that back their work. If you are seeking local help, you're better off telling some friends you will pay them a fraction of what you would pay the movers and you would probably reap better results. Scratchfree movers, broke a few items some sentimental items from 2014, some keepsake items from our vacation places that one of our kids had and loved, plus they also scratched the table by using it as a table for more items, they also nicked the walls in two areas of the house we are in. Not to mention the conversations we had with "the owner" who was Chris, but yet spoke about himself in third person. He offered a free move and when I moved to counter him with a more appealing offer of 25% back to us. He wouldn't accept claiming he would take a business loss, because the move should have cost between two and three thousand dollars. Hmmmm, that's funny, that is a higher price than two men and a truck quoted us and they would have done the job with integrity, honor, essence of time, care, and most of all a high level of customer service. Oh by the way check out the address. 198 Grand Circuit Blvd, an apartment complex...... If you thought about using them and still are, DO NOT DO IT!!!!
