So I brought my boat curtains to be sewn-- just four curtains to be cut from the cloth and then hemmed. It was critical to have them cut to the right measurements, which I provided. Unfortunately, they were all off be 1/4" to 3/4", and the hems were angled, not straight. This should have been an easy job for a tailor, but the result was sloppy, unprofessional. Too bad, I won't use her again. :(

You bought it out to us but we could have took the clean cloths from the dryer and put it into our own clean bags. We didn't have a lot of cloths to wash but we were also not sure if your hands were clean. We specifically said to let us know when the cloths are done and we will take it out of the dryer ourself. On top, you were very rude and you did yell at us when you were the one who told us to come back at the specific time that you said our laundry were going to be done. We rushed back on time because we didn't want you to touch the clean cloths out of the dryer. We wanted to take it out ourself. Also you were the one who told us that if we show up late, you are not going to wait and will lock up right on the dot at closing time. We ended up bringing the cloths back home and washing them again. You may think your hands are the cleanest but we don't like other people touching our clean cloths and you didn't listen to our instructions which we repeated to you when you told us to stand outside. I have to say your listening skill is very questionable along with your reading skill. Please read what I wrote before responding. $5 is for wash, laundry detergent and softener (excluding drying). Also, we did ask you about dry cleaning service. I do know a lot of laundry mat outsource this service. You were the one who told us it would be $20 a shirt which we thought to be a bit overpriced.

My favourite outfit has shrink by two inches and is now unwearable by me and was I'll pressed, it looks like it was rolled up in a laundry bin --cost of garments $500 US plus tax. My Farm Rio dress was I'll pressed, I'm away and am now worried about it also shrinking in size. Although the third garment is wearable, it too did shrink and the colours ran. These are all items that have only been worn a few times and dry cleaned with success in Vancouver. They now smell heavily of detergent, like they were just thrown in a washing machine without care. Total losses are well over $1200 for me. Worst dry cleaning experience ever!

I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to eliminate the stress of clutter in their home. After writing this review, Got Junk had attempted to contact me to rectify the situation within 24 hours. ******************************************************************************************** Phoned 1800-Got-Junk to have a bunch of misc. things removed from our basement. They are polite and courteous, etc. The customer service up to the end of the removal was great. However, a few days later I discovered they had taken something they were not supposed to, a handmade wooden bathroom cabinet built by my wife's father. It was near the items to be removed, but I had indicated only to take items up to a certain point in the basement and leave the rest, The cabinet was for our renovation and we had been saving it for some years to finally use it. Needless to say my wife was pretty upset about it. I phoned the company back and they told me it was likely disposed of. They told me they would call back. I have not received such a call. I would call the $160 price tag worthwhile had it not involved the loss of something of such importance to us. Unfortunately this experience has turned us off of using their services in the future. ********READ UPDATE ABOVE*********

I recently booked a pickup with Just Junk for a pickup on Vancouver Island on July 29/2016. The…read morereviews I read seemed promising. I spoke with a very helpful customer service rep named Ali, but after booking with this company it went downhill from there. We were promised a two hour window that was to be from 10:30-12:30. We were also sent an email stating that we would be called between 10:15 and 10:30 to let us know when they would be arriving. This simply did not happen so I finally called at 12:15 to find out why no one had contacted us. The person I spoke with did not really have any answers for us so I asked him to please have a manager or someone who did know why we hadn't been contacted us to call us. I did receive a call from a manger named Kathy approximately 5 minutes later to tell us that not only would they not be arriving at the promised time but we would be lucky if they arrived at 2:30 at the earliest. She gave no explanation why we weren't called and offered a very insincere "I'm sorry". I told her that this service was unacceptable but she did not show any concern in the least. I also told her that I would be writing a review and once again she simply did not care. We were on a time restriction with the sale of our house and had hired Just junk for this very reason. Due to the fact that they made no attempt to assist us I would not recommend this company to anyone and will certainly not give them any future business.
