Art's Chicago junk removal service.

Customer Feedback Reviews

Description Of Work:
I was relocated out-of-state by my company with little time to prepare my move. I contacted Art’s Junk and Furniture Removal to pick-up and haul away items that I no longer needed and didn’t want to move to my new home. Items included furniture, old books (about 5 trash cans worth), various electronic devices (computer, printer, etc..), and other miscellaneous items.

It should be noted that the pick-up site was in a high rise condo in down town Chicago.

Member Comments:
When I called Art’s I left a message and was pleased that the same day a representative (Glen) returned my call, quoted the move over the phone, and established the pick-up schedule.

On the day scheduled for pick-up, Glen arrived early and performed the removal exactly on schedule which was the most important concern I had as my schedule was very tight and not too flexible. Once Glen arrived I told him that I changed my mind about one rather large piece of furniture that I decided not to move as originally quoted. Glen stated that the amount quoted was probably higher than necessary and charged me about $30 less than the original quote. However, I was so pleased with the fact that Glen was on time, removed everything as planned, and showed genuine professional attention to my needs that I paid the original quote amount. It was worth it!

I highly recommend Art’s Junk and Furniture Removal and as I continue to own condo’s in Chicago I will definitely make Art’s Junk and Furniture Removal my first call when this type of service becomes necessary again.

Description Of Work:
They hauled away construction debris from the home remodeling. He showed up on time in a short notice on the same day and gave me a fair price and hauled away once I agreed on the price.
Member Comments:
Very satisfied with his price and work.

Customer review From Angies list
I cut down 4 large bushes and a small tree in my yard and had a whole lot of work ahead of me if I was going to try to cut and bundle it all. I decided to call around to various trash removal services on a Sunday. I either got voice mail or it was quite expensive to have them come out and haul away the waste. I called Glen and he said he would be at my house in an hour and a half. He showed up when he said he would and quickly helped remove all of the waste. He even took two large pieces of landscaping wood that I wanted to get rid of. I was very pleased with both the price and the fact that he came out so quickly on a Sunday!

TESTIMONIAL:
My brother died and we had to travel from Connecticut to Illinois to clean out his condo. We were not prepared for what we saw. The condo was piled high with garbage in every room. We knew we had to hire someone but it was also a holiday weekend. In desparation, I called Art’s Haul Away on a Sunday and someone answered! Not only did they answer but they listened to our problems – a huge cleaning job that had to be done before we left in 4 days and on a holiday weekend. The job was not only done but done beyond expectation. Art’s Haul away worked around us while we searched for important papers among the garbage. They cleaned the bathroom, which was nothing we asked for or expected them to do. They made good suggestions like pulling out the appliances and rugs. They did extra jobs like clean out the storage rooms outside the condo. And their prices were super reasonable, No way could this have been done with a dumpster. We needed their labor and talent to do the job right. This trip was the hardest thing I’ve ever done but Art’s Haul Away (Glen) was our Guardian Angel – a blessing to us at a very difficult time.

TESTIMONIAL

I just wanted to thank you for the incredible job you and your crew did in cleaning out our garage and backyard last weekend. I still can’t figure out how you fit all that stuff into the truck and the trailer. Pam parked her car in the garage for the first time in years! We are getting ready to start on the house now and I’m sure we will need another visit. Please feel free to use me as a reference at any time.

Description Of Work:

Removal and recycling of a 10 x 10 foot metal shed, folding aluminum screen house, tire, outdoor grill and several other items.
Member Comments:
Glen was very good to deal with, prompt about returning my call, pleasant on the phone and also in person. He was able to give me an approximate estimate by phone, came within a couple days once I knew when I was ready for him, and stuck with the original amount even though I added several things to my “junk” list. I felt sorry that the boxed screen house had wasps in it… he is allergic to bee stings. In spite of this, Glen had me go buy wasp spray while he continued working, then he sprayed the box thoroughly and loaded the screen house in his trailor. Glen’s price was at least $100 lower than the other estimate from a well-known junk hauler. I would absolutely use his service again.

Description Of Work:
Cleaned out and hauled away a full basement old furniture and miscellany over a seven hour period.
Member Comments:
Fabulous. From the first meeting for an estimate (which I missed due to my disorganization) to the end, this company was very professional in every respect.

I called the company to request a quote for hauling a couch. I described the couch and the location (in garage accessible by alley), and Art’s provided a quote over the phone. They showed up when they said they would (shortly after my phone call, as they were in the area), and charged me the amount quoted over the phone. This is the second time I’ve used Art’s, and I had a great experience both times.

Hired multiple times last fall to haul away yardwaste and various junk.

Prompt, polite, and efficient in his work. I’ve hired him multiple times, and will do so again in the future.

Customer review from Angies List

We needed to have yard and landscape debris removed that previous home owners failed to dispose of.
Member Comments:
I called Art on a Monday morning. He agreed to meet me at the house at 10 am and he arrived promptly. We agreed on a price for disposing of the debris. Art hauled away all the branches and limbs from a large crab tree that had been cut down, removed brush and bush trimmings, removed old plywood, as well as discarded concrete landscape blocks, landscape logs, & plumbing fixtures. He cleaned up the smaller branches and twigs as well. The job was completed by early afternoon. I would recommend Art and intend to hire him again in the future when the need arises.

I had two old sleeper sofas that NO ONE would take. These guys were here on time, so nice and helpful and even helped me move a chair upstairs to a different room. Highly recommend!

Member Comments:
My parents are elderly and were served with a notice to remove junk on their patio. Glen was at their house within an hour. He called me back to let me know what was on the patio and the cost of removal. I was impressed with his professionalism and price. Unfortunately, my parents are unwilling to part with their junk so we’ll have to wait. I certainly will call Art’s for the removal of items in my own house.
