Great experience! The crew was friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. It only took them about twenty minutes. They were very communicative about the whole process from the initial quote call, to booking, to calling the day-of, performing the work, payment and departure. A lot of haulers I called would only give a very large price range over the phone, but Junk King was much more specific, which helped me make the decision to use them.

NO SHOW! Called and talked with Mike Stroud on Tuesday and went into much detail about my hauling needs. We set an appointment up for Saturday between 10 am and noon for him to provide an estimate. He said he would send me an email confirming. After not receiving an email by Thursday, I called him again to be sure he had the correct email. He said he remembered talking with me and still on for Saturday. I asked him to confirm my email address but he didn't have a pen! Promised he would call me back later from his caller ID. Never heard back from him. I waited around Saturday for 2 hours in hopes he would show up, but never did. Definitely not an Angie's List type provider! Very disappointing.

Response from Junk King Kansas City
The member is absolutely correct in his assessment. We failed to execute on our promise, and we apologize. The fault is ENTIRELY ours. There is no excuse or justification for our lack of performance. In the event the member might consider giving us a 2nd chance we would be quite happy to provide him a substantial (60%, +) to complete the job. (Sometimes a business needs a kick in the pants to get them to improve their customer service; we clearly needed that kick and will do our best to do better.) Mike Stroud, General Manager, Junk King of Kansas City.

It went well. They were a little later than scheduled but they kept me informed. That is the nature of the service since there always seems to be additional items to dispose of. With the coupon, it was not much more than it would have cost to haul everything to the dump myself and I did not have to carry things up the hill from my walk out basement.
Description of Work: Removed half a truck of junk and 3 TV's.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that we purchased. We used less than half a truckload so it all worked out fine. They also had a coupon for 15% off if we had needed more. We had about 200 cubic feet. Their normally price was $258 so it was a big savings. It worked out very well. They did a fine job. They called a couple of times because there was a problem and they did not get here until 2 hours after they were originally supposed to be here. Their truck got stuck in the mud at the dump. They called a total of 3 times to explain what was going on. They did a fine job. We had 4 major appliances and a large television set that were removed. According to their website,they try to recycle and help other charities. The televisions set worked and they were going to give it away. They are a green organization which is nice that not everything is going in the dump.

This is the second time we have used Junk King. We highly recommend them. Were scheduled to be at our house between 10 and 12, but called to ask if they could come early. The guys were very nice and very professional. Loaded up our unwanted "junk" and gave us a 15% discount on the service. We will continue to use Junk King whenever we need this type of service.

they were fast and did take a lot but we could had them to take alot more , we had a big tv and got it out fast. what I did not like was when they told us we had to pay additional for each computers monitors that was 10 dollars for each one .We brought the $69 for a half a ton truck it was not everything we needed them to pickup, if you needed more things picked up they would have done it, but it could be really expensive. We had to guy and was in and out in no time, we could have not done it ourself so it was worth it.

Really good. They called an hour before to say they were on the way and were on time. Both guys were very polite, efficient, and professional. They were organized, in and out quickly. Did not charge me anything above the coupon I purchased. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. Also, they gave me an itemized receipt and coupons for future use. NIce to know there are companies and people out there who still believe in good customer service!

We were moving, and someone was supposed to take our king size bed. They decided they didn't want it (at the last minute), so I made an emergency call to Junk King to see if they could pick it up the next day. They arrived as scheduled the next day, on time, were extremely professional, and fast. I would use them again in a second!

They were professional, prompt and reasonably priced. They cleaned up the driveway after removing everything and gave me every discount they could. They even gave me homemade cookies after the truck was loaded. I would definitely recommend them.
Description of Work: I had everything I wanted removed already in the driveway, but they told me for future reference that they will carry/move everything for me at no extra charge. They price by the cubic foot for junk removal and will give an estimate or perform junk removal the same day, if desired.

Junk King of Kansas City were wonderful, absolutely wonderful. They measured everything and it came in at $20 below the value of the coupon - I don't know how they did that - but they were so good I told them to keep it! I gave each of the guys individually a little tip because they did such a nice job for us. My basement was a wreck, and they got everything I wanted rid of out. I'm glad I didn't have to go down there! The service was very professional and very friendly. They went out of their way - they even told me not to pack everything up in the middle. They were fine to go round with me and pick up the things that I wanted gone. I told them this was the first run. I have been wanting to finish off my basement for years but all the stuff that we brought down from Maryland that I didn't need has stopped me.

I used the big deal and they did a really good job. They cleaned up after themselves and I didn't even know they were there. They were very courteous. They had an appointment earlier that day but they called to say they weren't going to make it. They rescheduled and showed up on time. They were very courteous about it, very apologetic and came through in the end. They did reschedule and also let me know that they weren't coming on time instead of not showing. We just don't know what they do and we never know how much junk they are going to get picked. I just think the pickup they had before me was way more than I thought.

I am pleased with the service provided by these pleasant and respectful young men. Junk King was a good value for my money.
Description of Work: I had 2 sofas, an upholstered chair, a few old area rugs, some computer components and misc. junk to be hauled from my basement, living room, and garage. Brent and Justin from Junk King made short work of loading my items, taking care to assess them for any re-use potential. They were careful and very competent.

All three gentlemen that came to the house were very kind and professional. My appointment had been scheduled for 1pm, but they called around 10:30 that morning and asked if they could come earlier. That worked for me, so they arrived within 30 minutes of calling. They were very efficient. Great team work!
Description of Work: I had purchased the Big Deal off of Angie's list for $69 back in the fall, so the services were discounted. Prior to loading up all of my stuff, they measured out the piles and gave me an estimate for any additional fees. I had to pay an additional $10 for truck space and $10 for proper computer monitor recycling. I expected that it would be significantly more than that because I had a lot of junk! After the business side of things was taken care of, they got to work and quickly loaded everything into the truck. They took all of the trash, recycling and items for donation. They removed items from the backyard, basement and garage. After the work was done, we did a final walk through to make sure everything was removed as requested.

It was good but the only problem I had was communication. It could have been my fault but I was expecting them a different day but when I called them they were able to schedule me a couple of days later. They were on time, checked in and everything went fine. They were willing to help me move something else but they could easily have said no. I thought their price was very fair.

Overall the experience was frustrating. Upon purchasing the deal from Angie's List, I received an email stating that Junk King would email me within 2 business days to schedule an appointment. 9 days passed without hearing from Junk King. Angie's List then emailed me to confirm that I had made my appointment with Junk King. When I responded that I had not heard from them, Angie's List contacted Junk King and told them to schedule the appointment. Soon after, Junk King's general manager emailed me and told me that I was confused and that it was my responsibility to contact them. I made my appointment and they told me I would be the first pickup of the day. On the day of the appointment, the truck showed up around 3 hours late. About 45 minutes after my appointment time, I called Junk King. They told me the truck coming to my house had one other stop to make before my appointment - even though they had initially said I was the first appointment of the day. Then the truck drivers could not find my house. They went to the wrong address, delaying them even more. One thing I would like to mention is the fact that the guys in the truck who actually did the trash removal were very hard working and did a great job. My complaints are about the slow response time in setting an appointment with me, the general manager's attitude about their slow response time, and the truck showing up 3 hours late.

Response from Junk King Kansas City
Member Comments: “Overall the experience was frustrating.” Given the member’s experience, it is understandable that he was frustrated. We apologize for that. “Upon purchasing the deal from Angie's List, I received an email stating that Junk King would email me within 2 business days to schedule an appointment. 9 days passed without hearing from Junk King. Angie's List then emailed me to confirm that I had made my appointment with Junk King. When I responded that I had not heard from them, Angie's List contacted Junk King and told them to schedule the appointment. “ It’s quite clear that things got off to a bad start for this member. We agree that : - The member purchased a coupon from Angie’s List on October 15th, 2012 (The member paid Angie’s List $69.00 for a coupon that could be redeemed for up to $168.00 worth of junk hauling. This represented a savings of $99.00 for the member and was aimed at our typical, average job size. The $168.00 was based on our standard pricing sheet for up to 120 cubic feet - Since we know we did the job for the member on October 25th, 2012, his recollection of waiting 9 days is accurate With that said, however: Each time a member availed themselves of the “Angie’s List Big Deal” we received an email notification providing us name, address, phone number, etc. of the person who purchased the coupon. Each and every one of the Angie’s List 60+ emails we received always contained the following information: “An Angie's List member has purchased a Big Deal from your business. The member has been instructed to contact you within the timeline specified to schedule their Big Deal. Details are below.” Given Angie’s List’s considerable expertise in implementing this kind of promotion, it was our understanding it made good sense that the onus for initial contact fell to their members, primarily because many/most of the purchasers did NOT have an immediate need for our services, but were instead making the purchase in anticipation of a future need. “Soon after, Junk King's general manager emailed me and told me that I was confused and that it was my responsibility to contact them.” It is true that we sent an email to the member. In fact, we sent exactly the same email to ALL of the members who had purchased the “Big Deal’ coupon to that point. We did so because it was increasingly apparent to us that some of the members were not entirely clear about how the coupon redemption process was meant to work. In our attempt to bring some clarity to the situation, we sent the (verbatim) email below: Wednesday, October 24th, 2012 Dear Angie's List subscriber, First, thank you for purchasing an Angie's List 'Big Deal' coupon earlier this month. We believe you will be glad you made that buying decision. Now that you have your certificate, it appears there may be a little confusion about what is supposed to happen next. The 'fine print' in the offer says that, when you have all your 'junk' identified, and are ready to take advantage of the offer, all you have to do is give us a call to get your job scheduled. It seems you may have been one of the people who instead expected us to call you first. We're sorry that we didn't do a better job of describing the process. In any event, we have received your name, address, phone number from Angie's List and we're ready to help you with your fall clean up at a day and time that works best for you. Thanks again! Regards, Mike Stroud General Manager Junk King of Kansas City 1-800-995-JUNK (5865) We are sorry if the member was offended by the above message. “I made my appointment and they told me I would be the first pickup of the day”. We agree with the member’s statement that he was our first scheduled job for the day. (9am -11am) “On the day of the appointment, the truck showed up around 3 hours late. About 45 minutes after my appointment time, I called Junk King. They told me the truck coming to my house had one other stop to make before my appointment – even though they had initially said I was the first appointment of the day.” Since the job occurred about 5 months ago, we confess that we do not have sufficient information to dispute his statement concerning the time delay, and we quite frankly have no desire to do so. It seems clear that we did a very poor job of keeping the member fully informed about the situation. In our research, however, we do know that the truck slated to handle his job had mechanical problems, causing us to bring a different truck and crew to his home “Then the truck drivers could not find my house. They went to the wrong address, delaying them even more”. We agree with the member’s statement. The address listed in our job order simply didn’t exist, and it took us a few minutes to figure out the correct address. (‘When it rains, it pours’) One thing I would like to mention is the fact that the guys in the truck who actually did the trash removal were very hard working and did a great job. We appreciate the member’s candor; in fact, our crews get consistently high marks for friendliness, honesty and work ethic. I’m very proud of them; they are really good guys, and one of the biggest reasons people call us back to pick up some more junk. It’s nice to know we did at least some things right. My complaints are about the slow response time in setting an appointment with me, the general manager's attitude about their slow response time, and the truck showing up 3 hours late. In summary, we fully understand that the member did not have the positive experience he expected. In our defense, the job occurred in October of 2012. The report was filed about 5 months later. Because that is true, it would appear we did not have a realistic opportunity to rectify the situation at the time of his complaint. We have scoured our email exchanges during that period, as well as our landline and cell phone logs during that period and cannot locate information that would allow us to respond with more specifics. Bottom line to all this? The member believes he was treated badly. Perception is reality. We will refund his money, and we are quite frankly happy to do so. With any luck, ‘God willin’and the creek don’t rise” the member will decide to give us another chance to do better. We’d like that. Mike Stroud General Manager 913-233-9742 (cell) Call me any time, about anything, and I WILL get back to you. You can also reach me at mikestroud@junk-king.com. Looking forward to hearing what’s on your mind. Really.
