They consistently pay high prices, and I really like that they post their prices online so I know what to expect. Every time I've been there, the unloading process has been quick and easy. The scale is right there where you can see it, they help sort and unload, everything gets weighed in front of you, and I've always felt like the process was fair and transparent. It's a well run yard with friendly people.

I thought I could do a bit better. I found James G Grant and figured I'd give it a shot. It's a bit intimidating at first given the visuals-- heavy machinery everywhere, large piles of all different materials, etc. but folks were happy to help. This is one of the places where all of the commercial junk removal businesses bring their materials and then do a healthy up-charge for the convenience. I went in to the office, asked for what the process was and was told to drive on to the scale. Once the weight registered, I got a thumbs up and then followed the One Way signs to the dumping area for construction materials. I backed in, dumped everything, and then back to the scale. Drove through the scale again, another thumbs up, and then parked and went to the office for payment. The price was very reasonable. Only about $60. The entire process took maybe 15 minutes. I was very happy with the experience and highly recommend if people in the Boston area have to dispose of larger materials and have a means to transport them.

The truck drivers are friendly, and hard working. My main issue with them is their billing practices. They never tell you this, but they will charge $100 for a failed drop. If you need to tow parked cars, $100 an hour. If you tell them to come back after you have cleared the space, $100. They will just charge your card without another word, which is a very frustrating business practice.

I have to leave these folks a review after my first transaction with them. I showed up yesterday…read morewith 18 carefully weighed large trash bags of brass wire with a total (my calculation) of 870 pounds . After arriving and being helped to transfer the wire to 3 large metal bins, they weighed the bins and found the total to be 916 pounds! I was sure I had calibrated my scale and couldn't be that far off but they insisted that their measurement was accurate so I accepted their payment. I had numbered my bags 1 thru 18 so today I checked the empty bags and found I had made 2 bags and numbered them with the same number. The one of those two bags that I had not accounted for weighed 43.6 pounds. So my total of 870 pounds should have been 913.6 pounds which means their total was 2.4 pounds more than my calculated weight. They apologized for not having more help unloading (I wasn't expecting any) so service was great, weight was very accurate, and the payment rate was quite fair. My overall experience was exceptional.

I needed leaf mulch for my gardens last year and called L E's Mattapan location to find some. They…read moredidn't answer and their voice mailbox was full-- not encouraging. So I went in person. The place was disorganized and the staff was unprofessional. I waited for quite a while as various people had loud discussions about whose fault a missed delivery had been. I finally left, having gotten an idea of what my experience would be. this year, I found that L E had an outlet in Woburn. The website was not active, so I called and left a message for their mulch department. Nobody called me back, so the next day I took a chance and drove up to Woburn to inquire in person. They did have leaf mulch and I ordered my load and paid for delivery, which was to be out of the Mattapan site. I was given May 17 between 7 and 8 a.m. as the delivery time. On the 17th we waited for the delivery. And waited. finally, at around 1:45 I called Woburn again to see what was up. "Truck trouble," I was told after the Woburn office called the Mattapan office. I was promised the mulch by 3:30. You can probably guess that it wasn't delivered. I stayed home all day waiting, changing my other plans as the hours passed. This morning (May 18th), I called Woburn again to tell them that I hadn't received the mulch. Paul from the Woburn office called the Mattapan number again to inquire. When he came back on the line, he told me he'd ensured that the delivery would be today, even if he had to have it driven down to Dorchester from Woburn. Now I'm sitting on my hands again, waiting for mulch and hoping it gets here before I have to work this afternoon. SiteOne, the corporation that holds Landscape Express needs to TRAIN its staff in professional and responsive customer service. There's no magic to being polite and even a simple checklist of follow-up actions can help ensure that jobs don't fall through the cracks. I appreciate Paul's efforts on my behalf, but they shouldn't have been necessary. Not Rocket Science. Get it together Mattapan!
