"Thanks for your business and the kind review. (Note to reader: The $450 price included $75 for a City of Chicago dumpster permit in addition to the $375 price of the dumpster)"
I was driving on I-55 on a Saturday morning and was several car lengths behind the JL Roll-off vehicle. I watched a large piece of wood pallet fall from the truck and saw the cars around it scatter to avoid being hit. I slowed but was unable to avoid a piece that bounced off the shoulder and back into my lane. We took pictures of debris hanging out of the truck, the driver, and the license plate then pulled over to check the damage. The driver never stopped. We called the State Police and showed the pictures. We also notified JL Roll-off from the highway and via email with the pictures. The piece of debris did $1070 of damage to the hood and grill...Thankfully it did not go through the windshield and injure someone in the family.
My insurance company contacted the owner and he completely denied all responsibility and was quite rude. He was unwilling to give his insurance information despite having some pretty good evidence that his vehicle did in fact drop debris on the highway. I have know idea if he ever even questioned his driver or perhaps my have actually been the driver at the time but someone at JL Roll-off knows they damaged my vehicle and they are unwilling to step forward.
Vehicles roll up and down our highways all the time and they improperly secure their loads and cause thousands if not millions of dollars in damage with impunity. JL Roll-off is one of theses companies and does not deserve to be a respected Angie's List contractor.
BE AWARE...if JL Roll-off damages your property or does something wrong, you will be stuck with the bill. They will deny all responsibility even when there is substantial evidence to the contrary and someone within their organization who knows the truth.
Send this company a message...Don't use them!!
In response to your response...your company picks up garbage and transports it to the dump presumably without scattering it all over the countryside. Reputable businesses that homeowners can trust should be able to pick up garbage without the homeowner having to worry about where it will end up being found. If you were so convinced that your company was not at fault then why hang up on me? Is it so difficult to have a discussion? How many people call you from the road on a Saturday to leave a message saying they got hit by debris from your truck and then follow up with pictures? Your driver is a liar because we slowed to 45 mph to get him to pull over and he slowed more to stay away from us. When we pulled over he immediately changed lanes and sped past us. This is not a traffic grievance, this is a simple matter of your company being unable to meet the minimum requirements of your service by keeping the debris in your truck. Even if the debris hadn't damaged my vehicle, Angie's list members need to know if they are working with a company that can meet the minimum requirements of their business. You sir, did not on this day.
"We spoke to the driver on that day and he didn't notice any debris fall from the truck or anyone attempting to get him to pull over to let him know and exchange information. Maybe he's lying, but the picture you sent of him behind the wheel shows him looking ahead calmly and not in any way distracted by any car attempting to get him to pull over. If you had followed him and pulled him over then we would be in a different position. I'm sorry that your car was damaged but we're not convinced that any debris came from our truck. Angie's List is not a forum for postings about traffic grievances. It is strictly for seeking qualified reputable businesses that homeowners can trust to get the job done right. Or reviews and 'A' rating speak for themselves. If our company has failed to respond to a service request or performed service that you are disappointed with, then feel free to write a review. If that is not the case, then kindly remove this review from Angie's List."
