Got Junk???

Jul 06, 2006 10:13

Has anyone ever used the 1-800-GOT-JUNK service?

If so, what was the experience like? How much did it cost? What did you have hauled away?

Thanks!

Yup. We had a couple of bookcases and an old dresser hauled away. A guy on our block worked there so we saw his truck all the time and that's how we heard of them. It cost like $250 I think, but it was painless and the guy was super-nice.

They got an "A" on Angie's List. Here's some comments from previous customers:

They were great. They worked hard and quickly. They called before they came, as promised, and they graciously accepted the Angie's List coupon. I highly recommend this service and plan to use it again ( ... )

What sorta junk you got that needs scootin? Big stuff or lots of little?

Big, mostly broken stuff.

Broken glider rocker that has been fixed 3-4 times.

Broken gas grill.

Broken mailbox post that is about a foot taller than me.

There are a few other things too. A friend of mine has a bunch of computer parts and stuff, so we were thinking of combining the load, since computer parts can no longer be put in regular trash. But first I was going to ask a friend about the computer parts. =) I know he does something with them.

Isn't there that "recycle computer parts" number to call when you've got that sort of stuff? Don't they come and get that, or do you have to drop it off? I'm not really sure how that works. I only clicked the link and saw that it took you to someplace with Green in the name =/
