They are always willing to educate you on how you can make more money recycling various metals, they have a frequent donor card, the rates are always fair, & if you see an item of interest onsite - they will make you a deal if you want to purchase it. They earn all five stars because I feel they go above and beyond. For example, during the summer when the Texas heat can really make people cranky they remain friendly and helpful...by offering water while you wait for your paperwork to be processed.

YESTERDAY on 3/21/26 I came through there with sorted material. #1)black trash bag full of #2 insulated wire #2) orange 5gal bucket with bare bright #3) a box with #1 insulated wire #4) extruded aluminum put into a wheel barrel from my truck & onto the scale. #5) 4 pieces of clean brass laid onto scale. All of which is on YOUR cameras. Since there was a line & it was almost closing time, I got my cash & receipt, got in my car & drove away. At the traffic light I immediately realized the mistake as I looked at my receipt & cash. I called the business for which a WOMEN answer & said "sorry we are closed" I said "don't care I'm coming back right now". I then spoke to a manager in person who said "mistakes happen but we are closed now come back in the morning & we will take care of it". My receipt had Brass, #2 insulated, #2 insulated again & #3 insulated. WHERES THE ORANGE HOME DEPOT 5 GAL BUCKET OF BARE BRIGHT????? WHERE IS MY ALUMINUM YOU LOADED FROM MY TRUNK INTO YOUR WHEEL BARRELL & ONTO YOUR SCALE????? WHERE DID THIS #3 INSULATED COME FROM? I came back this morning 3/22/26 & I had everything written on a piece of paper AS TO AVOID ANY TYPE OF LANGUAGE BARRIER. I was meet by the "owner" who took my note and my reciept & proceeded to tell that I was wrong, my story was a lie, stated "he don't have a WOMEN on his payroll"... I don't care if she is on your payroll or not, you got a women that answered the phone or a dude that speaks just like a WOMEN, you got a manager that told me to come up here today, you got many cameras that caught you committing a crime & stealing from me and now you STEAL my receipt!!! You are a joke of man, a joke of business owner, & i hope that extra $50-$60 that you STOLE FROM ME WAS WORTH IT! IM GOING TO CONTINUE TO WRITE HONEST, 1 STAR REVIEWS ABOUT YOU & YOUR JOKE OF A BUSINESS ON GOOGLE, YELP & EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM I CAN FIND UNTIL I GET TIRED OF DOING IT!!!

My husband was able to reach out by calling/texting and someone was quickly able to provide a quote of $450-500 for labor, haul off and disposal which was very fairly priced.

They also were able to quickly get us on schedule and the day of, updated us on their ETA during the arrival window. The crew was very professional and friendly and we were thrilled with the work and treatment of our property and hauling away everything, like you'd never know something used to be there, aka a hot tub! The electrical portion was left and the guy stated we could have an electrician come to cap it but other than that, JunkGuys was so helpful and great at taking care of this so quickly for us :) We look forward to reaching out again and using them next time we have projects that require further clean out and removal of things!

The level of service has been unacceptable and has caused ongoing frustration. For years, I did not have issues with trash pickup, but recently the service has become unreliable and inconsistent. Missed pickups have become a recurring problem, and communication from the company has been poor. When concerns were reported, there was little effort made to resolve the issues in a timely or satisfactory manner. To make matters worse, I was required to pay additional quarterly fees because my residence is located on a dirt road, despite the fact that service was being provided and the trucks were already traveling down the road. On many occasions, drivers would reach the end of the road, back up, and leave without any apparent difficulty, making the additional charges difficult to justify. As a paying customer, I expect dependable service, accountability, and basic customer support. Instead, I have experienced missed collections, poor communication, and a lack of professionalism. The overall experience has been frustrating and disappointing. I cannot recommend Texas Disposal Systems based on my experience and would encourage potential customers to carefully consider other options before choosing this company.

Their single‑operator trucks will not move a bin if a car is nearby, even on public streets where homeowners have no control. The only remedies offered are insufficient: a couple of extra bags next week or paying double for a return trip. This is not customer service -- it's a penalty for their own cost‑cutting. Speaking with a supervisor confirmed they have no flexibility or willingness to help. Very disappointing.
