Junk Removal

Tim and Chester did a great job removing a whole bunch of junk that we had accumulated in our garage. They kept me informed about their arrival time, were very professional, and cleaned up all of the debris down to pulling out a broom and sweeping up. Thanks for a great job!

Yard Junk

Over the last 2+ years I accumulated junk from removing wood fences, gazebo, home renovations, etc. This all collected in the backyard. I googled the internet to find a reliable company to remove this junk and found Rid-Of-It. I was impressed by their web site and contacted the company by e-mail. My e-mails were promptly answered by Jessica. As a result, I called Jessica last Thursday and booked an appointment which I got for the very next day!!
Garrison and Chester arrived on site on time. Both were very polite, assessed the job and gave me a very reasonable quote for the job on hand. Then they went to work and in no time the wood pile had disappeared. I have to give Garrison and Chester high marks for how they loaded the truck, using all the space efficiently. I did not believe they could fit all this junk on their truck in one load - but they did!!
Garrison and Chester completed this job professionally and efficiently and I thank them again!! I will contact this company again for any future removal jobs and I highly recommend Rid-Of-It. Thank you all - this was a very nice experience!!

Disposal of mulch and earth

Contacted Rid Of It on a Sunday afternoon and made an apt for the following day. They called before they arrived to give me an update on their timing. Once they arrived Garrison and Derek were very polite, worked quickly and were more than fair on the price. Very happy with the service.

Garbage Removal

Garrison and Derek outlined the cost of the work. They explained how the pricing works -- the amount in the truck with the extra costs for the weight. They removed my garbage quickly and cleaned up after. It was a hassle free transaction.

Junk Removal

To start, the services were great. They showed up on time and finished everything in about 20 minutes. They also cleaned up all the dust and dirt left underneath the rubbish on the driveway.

When I spoke to other company's they said it would cost about $250 and when I spoked to Rid-of-it on the phone they also said about $250 after I thoroughly described what material I had to dispose of, the size of it as well as how heavy it was.

I am disappointed with what they charged me. They charged me for 1/4 truck which was fair for $189 but what surprised me was the additional $159 for 1/8 bed load. This is the charge because it is heavy.

As stated on their website: " How do you charge?
We charge based on volume per truckload. However, if the material is extremely heavy a surcharge is applied based on weight."

Now I do not believe the wood was extremely heavy as I have been lugging it around all day and tearing it out of the ground myself.

Also the average price to dump 1 Metric Ton of waste in Toronto is about $75. I did not have a ton. So I am not quite sure how they charged me an extra $159 on top of the $189.

So all in all I had an Great services from the worker but very disappointed in the cost. I won't be using this company again.

Approximate cost of services:
$393.00

Better describe and inform to the customer on their pricing and how much it costs for heavy products.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
be prepared to pay almost double.

I am glad to hear you were happy with the service. It is unfortunate that you feel you were overcharged. Pricing is not an exact science and our crews do their best to be accurate and consistent. I have reviewed the charges for your pick up and would be more than happy to discuss them with you.

Please feel free to give me a call.

Thanks

Renovation materials and Packing material

Had renovation material sitting in my shed and backyard for a year. I booked an appointment on line for the next day. Got a call confirming minutes later. John and Chester arrived when they said they would, gave an accurate quote and worked quickly, efficiently and were very clean. In no time the material was gone. Would strongly recommend.

Debris removal

They quoted $200 on the phone, and then wanted $350 when they got here. I understand that the quotes are rough estimates, but 75% increase in price is a bit much, especially when they received a very detailed information on the scope of work over the phone. I really do not appreciate that kind of bait-and-switch behaviour.

V I am sorry that you felt mislead. That is certainly never our intention. Pricing is never easy, especially over the phone. That is why we offer free on site estimates with no obligations. I reviewed your invoice and you were given an on site discount. I would be more than happy to discuss your pick up with you.

Thanks

Removal of a bunch of furniture, other things

We had several pieces of surplus furniture to remove, as well as a number of odds and ends. Wanted to avoid putting it all on the curb and waiting for it to be picked up by the city. Jacob and Derek did the work. They were quick, focused and asked all the right questions. Nice job!
