Review from HomeOwner Review left on 25 Mar 2014Rating: 0 out of 5Bought 1/4 truck removal on groupon. Must've left 3 messages to book which were never returned so I should've known at that point this would be a problem! Eventually got someone on the phone and booked an appointment for today 2.30pm. Great. Sorted all the junk for collection and came home from work early. A total no show, no call, nothing. Have since left two messages and no response. Have requested a refund from groupon. Sad for them as I had way more than a 1/4 truck and it would have been a nice little job for them but I shall give my business to someone else.Review from HomeOwner HomeOwner

BEWARE OF UNRELIABLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE! I booked an appointment with Brian for a half a truck junk removal for my condo. I rented the service elevator for $25, provided a $500 security deposit and took a day off of work. They did not show up and avoided my multiple calls and voice messages the next following days. It was only until I called with a different number did Brian pick up. He told me he would "look into it" and call me the next day. Of course I didn't hear from him. I've never experienced such HORRIBLE service. HIGHLY UNRECOMMENDED. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!!Answer from pro:
Thank you for review. I am sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with our customer service. Unfortunately, the weather conditions this year have caused a number of challenges in our business. The day of your removal was no exception. We had below freezing temperatures, icy conditions and a number of road closures from the previous storms in Toronto. We attempted to complete all our scheduled appointments that day unfortunately, mother nature intervened. We attempted to reach a number of occasions the day of the appointment but had no luck. I spoke with you the day after to reschedule your appointment for our next available time however, you were not interested. We work with all our customers to meet their requirements and schedules. Hopefully, we can be more flexible to accommodate unforeseen circumstances in the future. Brian

Purchased a coupon from Groton based on the description on the site. However the description was not a good representation of how much junk was I clouded with the coupon. When they arrived they tried to sell us on buying way more than we needed. Although they did take more then anticipated, I wouldn't hire these guys again.Review from HomeOwner HomeOwner
Review left on 3 Jun 2013Rating: 5 out of 5Removal of hot tub and other junk
I looked into various ways to dispose of an old hot tub and found that Canada Junk was willing to do it for the best price and least work on my part. I was also pleased that they serve the Uxbridge area because not all companies do. Two guys showed up on time and got right to work. They were friendly and efficient. After loading the hot tub they still had some room on the truck so they also took away some additional junk I wanted to get rid of at no additional cost. I will call this company again in the future if I need stuff taken away.Review from Kate M Kate M

I decided on the spur of the moment to have someone come and take my old shed to the dump instead of doing it myself. I went on Canada Junk's website and booked a removal for 3 hours later. The guys showed up promptly (within 23 mins of the time - there's a 2 hour window) and gave me an estimate that was fair given their website prices and better then one of the 'other guys' website. They had the shed in their truck in about 12 mins. The credit card payment was quick and easy and after seeing how much space it took up in the truck I was so happy they did it instead of me. It was easy to book, they were on time, fair, courtesy and quick! I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks guys!Review from HomeOwner HomeOwner

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE! STAY CLEAR! I made 3 appointments with this company. The first two they didn't show up, nor did they call me to re arrange. The third time, my contractor tells me they showed up and said the job was too big, but they didn't even go into the back yard to see what the job was!!! When I called Brian at their office, he was very argumentative and said he was not to blame. I told him I wanted a refund as I did not want to deal with an unprofessional company. His response, "I don't want to deal with unprofessional customers". INCREDIBLE! DON'T USE THIS COMPANY!!!!Answer from pro:
Fabrizo, thank you for your comments. As a groupon voucher holder I am concerned that the terms and conditions were not clear. Firstly, we did call to re arrange the first appointment that was cancelled due to the weather conditions this winter and road closures. We did discuss at this time that the debris was buried under the snow and not accessible as well. We did arrive at the scheduled time however, the contractor did not know what debris was to be removed, the voucher was taped to the door, and no arrangements had been made to collect the taxes owing on the voucher. The contractor, the removal team, and myself attempted to contact you and waited 30 minutes. We left a message with you that was not returned for 5 days. Furthermore, the total amount of construction debris grossly exceeded the value of the voucher. As an organization, we have over 10 years experience in the junk removal business and a 97% approval rating at Groupon. Given the circumstances, I feel that the there was a misunderstanding of the terms and conditions of the Groupon voucher and as we communicate with all our customers that someone has to be on-site for us to remove your debris. Furthermore, we did extend you the opportunity to refund your voucher with Groupon. Kindly, Brian.

Review left on 9 May 2013Rating: 0 out of 5Worst Service...HUGE RIP-OFF!!
Canada Junk Removal Inc. didn't show up for the first two appointments we scheduled (no calls to indicate cancellation or reschedule) and finally showed up 2 hours late for the third. Two guys showed up in a dinky truck already half full with junk and managed to fill the rest of the truck with our junk within half an hour. I bought a $60 coupon from TeamBuy for a half-truck junk removal ($348 value) that's supposed to cover "an entire apartment or garage clean-out". Upon completion of the services, they were unwilling to take the coupon, stating that they removed more than half a truck but were willing to "give us a deal by waiving the taxes" and forcing us to pay $300. I now hesitate to use their services again with our unused coupon.Answer from pro:
Thank you Dan for your comments. We call all our customers 20-30 minutes before we arrive on site or when we schedule appointments that have a 2-hour service window. The $60.00 coupon has a value of a 1/8th truck load of junk removal. As it states in the terms and conditions that if the amount of your junk exceeds the value of your coupon additional charges may apply. We discuss any additional charges that may apply with customers before loading the truck and each customer has the option to only remove the junk at the value of the coupon or proceed with the removal after agreeing on any additional prices. In addition, the coupon can be redeemed for a full refund if a customer is not satisfied with the no-obligation estimates that we provide. You can refer to the Team Buy site for a reference to your coupon. We have over 400 satisfied customers that use these vouchers. Unfortunately, we can't control the amount of the junk that one might have but we can ensure that it is removed in a professional, timely and efficient manner. Thank you for your business, Brian

I hired Canada Junk Removal after the previous company bailed on me. Brian and Josh came to give me an estimate, and once agreed started to remove everthing immediately. My dad and I were impressed at how quickly they got things done. They were friendly professional, and definitely knew what they were doing, were definitely prepared, unlike the previous company I hired. They were very accomodating, and helped my father and I out of a jam. The estimate they gave was what we paid, there were no other hidden costs. I would definitely reccommend this company. Great job!Review from Kirk Kirk

I had a pile of rubbish on my driveway from yard work and house cleaning. Canada Junk Removal came in and cleaned everything up beautifully. The showed up when they said they would. They got back to me when they said they would. They did the job as promised and kept me in the loop. I highly recommend them.
