Located in Nanaimo, in comes Shawn! Showed up at the house when he said he would, was transparent about how he quotes (BTW, had 13 moving quotes and he charged me a fraction of what the others quoted). He sent me two fantastic, friendly and professional movers who were super capable. Move my massive massage chair from the garage into the house up a curved stair well. All this the same day I called him for a quote. Thank you Shawn for restoring my faith and trust, and know that if we every need anything moved, you are our guy! Happy to refer you, with zero hesitation.

They were also the most reasonably priced. I was willing to pay extra because of the no fuss, no mess, quick job they did, but Shawn wouldn't take more than he quoted. 20 stars out of 5!

UPDATE: My sincerest apologies to 1800 GOT JUNK. Someone else had taken the unit just before Got…read moreJunk arrived as to ensure they would not take it away by mistake. I was not aware of this. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to eliminate the stress of clutter in their home. After writing this review, Got Junk had attempted to contact me to rectify the situation within 24 hours. ******************************************************************************************** Phoned 1800-Got-Junk to have a bunch of misc. things removed from our basement. They are polite and courteous, etc. The customer service up to the end of the removal was great. However, a few days later I discovered they had taken something they were not supposed to, a handmade wooden bathroom cabinet built by my wife's father. It was near the items to be removed, but I had indicated only to take items up to a certain point in the basement and leave the rest, The cabinet was for our renovation and we had been saving it for some years to finally use it. Needless to say my wife was pretty upset about it. I phoned the company back and they told me it was likely disposed of. They told me they would call back. I have not received such a call. I would call the $160 price tag worthwhile had it not involved the loss of something of such importance to us. Unfortunately this experience has turned us off of using their services in the future. ********READ UPDATE ABOVE*********

I recently booked a pickup with Just Junk for a pickup on Vancouver Island on July 29/2016. The…read morereviews I read seemed promising. I spoke with a very helpful customer service rep named Ali, but after booking with this company it went downhill from there. We were promised a two hour window that was to be from 10:30-12:30. We were also sent an email stating that we would be called between 10:15 and 10:30 to let us know when they would be arriving. This simply did not happen so I finally called at 12:15 to find out why no one had contacted us. The person I spoke with did not really have any answers for us so I asked him to please have a manager or someone who did know why we hadn't been contacted us to call us. I did receive a call from a manger named Kathy approximately 5 minutes later to tell us that not only would they not be arriving at the promised time but we would be lucky if they arrived at 2:30 at the earliest. She gave no explanation why we weren't called and offered a very insincere "I'm sorry". I told her that this service was unacceptable but she did not show any concern in the least. I also told her that I would be writing a review and once again she simply did not care. We were on a time restriction with the sale of our house and had hired Just junk for this very reason. Due to the fact that they made no attempt to assist us I would not recommend this company to anyone and will certainly not give them any future business.

So who out there likes to move? No, I didn't think so. The stress of packing, changing contact…read moreinfo, cleaning etc. etc. Just to make it that much more interesting, there was a monsoon the day of the move. Not just rain that makes you consider moving to higher ground, but wind that was knocking out the power. Along comes two young gentlemen from Take A Load Off Moving. You sort of brace yourself for the worst but boy was I wrong. These two fellows got to work right away and had me out of the old place in an hour less than I had estimated. They worked their tails off. They were both polite, well spoken and professional. What? Movers? Yes! Through all this horrible weather they never complained or stopped. It was the same at our destination. I highly recommend Take A Load Off Moving and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Thanks Guys!! JannieD

They failed to take the time and care when moving a sideboard that was only 1 year old and in mint condition. They did not wrap this item and when carrying it into the house carried it from the top of the unit, not supporting the base. the top came off and then entire unit was in pieces on the ground. They advised " sorry, not covering this in insurance" and left the unit scattered on ground. When attempting to contact the manager Rebecca Stevenson, there was no reply to 3 emails. Very poor customer service and absolutely no liability to cover losses of consumer due to poor care and handling. I would never recommend this business.
