Jose and Jose were the ultimate professionals. They arrived right on time, listened to my needs then started the move. We had some furniture that needed put outside for Recology and some that went to the new apartment. Jose & Jose made the move smooth and they are easy to work with. I’d highly recommend this team:) - Stacy

I had selected Recology Mountain View as the destination (it was featured on the app for junk removal) but it turned out this location didn’t take furniture. Franklin and Roland knew of a different place to dispose of the old furniture and rerouted the destination. Everything went so smoothly thanks to them!! - Sooreen

They were very nice. I can’t express in words how great your company is. Your immediate follow-up yesterday to my emails is so appreciated. You need to advertise on NextDoor! Had I known about your company weeks ago to remove furniture, I would have hired you considering your pricing structure is fair versus We-Got-Junk that came & gave me an outrageously expensive quote to remove 5 pieces of furniture that I refused to pay. It was difficult to find another company but I finally found one. Your company is timely and responsive. I was referred to you by a real estate agent and I now am referring you to others! Thank you for being professional & fairly priced. You have a raving fan in me! - Rya
