Purchased a container from these guys this summer. Was told 2 different prices on 2 separate phone calls, $350 and $500 for tree brush and scrap wood. The 500 I was told call 1, 350 was said on call 2. After I get it picked up I’m told 500 when I was told 350 because of the scrap. This was in June haven’t heard from them since till yesterday when they tried charging me the $500 and now they are saying it’s because I went over the weight? You can tell that the original owners are not in charge anymore because only an idiot puts a communication error on the customer over a $150 that would of been made up in 3 months for my trash pick up. Now you wont be getting another dime from me. Terrible business decision.
GW Shaw was great to work with! I rented a dumpster from them, and everyone I spoke with in the office was extremely helpful, personable, and easy to work with. The whole process was simple and straightforward, and I had a great experience from start to finish. The best part is I have a clean, clutter-free basement! I would definitely recommend GW Shaw!
