We have been customers of Lawn-Corps since 2008 and until recently we had no problems at all. Our…read morehouse was skipped last week, but they came back. This week our house was skipped, so I called mid-day and the person who answered the phone said she'd contact the driver. Who knows if she really did, but she said they were trying a new system and they'd be here later. They never picked up our yard waste. I called this morning and a very rude woman said we had not paid them, but if we did, they'd pick up our yard waste next Friday. There are several things that are wrong with this. We have been customers for 13 years at the same address, but that didn't seem to matter to her. Secondly, my husband has advanced stage COPD and congestive heart failure and is in the hospital often, so he must've missed the bill. No matter to them that because my husband is on 5 liters of oxygen 24/7 our grandsons came to put the yard waste out and we can't very well leave it curbside for a week, nor can we store it for a week. So, now my husband and I had a neighbor help us load the 6 bags of yard waste into our truck and my husband has driven it out to Belton where he'll drag his oxygen bottle and the hose to his nose to unload and empty the bags THEY should've picked up. UNBELIEVABLY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE! We paid them for this year, but will be looking for a different service.

City Scrap Metal

We took scrap metal to these guys and said you have to have paperwork stating that the scrap was…read moreours with our name listed on it. We had a scope of work saying we had demo work that was to our boss, but since our name wasn't listed they refused our metal and it literally was cut up pieces of threaded rod pieces of old metal rack that were cut up. We called before we went and there was no mention of needing paperwork stating it was ours and that our name had to be personally listed on the scope of work. They say their goal is to persevere metals, umm didnt seem like it today. Probably wasn't 50$ worth of metal but point being it needs recycled. Wrong place for recycling.

The only other time I have sold scrap metal was in another city and the experience was rather…read morescary. Today I wanted an adventure so I loaded up the trash sack of aluminum cans and some old copper wire we had in the garage and headed over the City Scrap Metal. Yes it is very industrial, so I don't suggest wearing your finest clothes or high healed sneakers. There was a line when I was there, ahead of me the usual pick up trucks of the guys you see driving around town scrapping. When finally got to the door, I was met by a polite young man named Christopher. I explained I was a newbie and he said he would help me. That he did. I took my two items, the wire and soda cans into the warehouse and Chris filled out some paperwork, calculating how much each item weighed (they do this by type and they take all sorts of metals). He then gave me the yellow paper and directed me to the office, where I was paid cash on site for my scrap. Painless way to recycle and get some spare cash for the trouble. I found this process to be well organized and efficient. I will be back to sell my cans.

The team at Citywide Dumpster was amazing from the request for quote through pickup. I had never…read morerented a dumpster before so I had questions including the total price, what could be placed in it, what do we need to do for drop off/pick up; and Brittany took the time to answer my questions. I was able to have the dumpster on the side of the garage where I wanted it and not just where the driver put it like other companies said. When the dumpster arrived, the outside was clean and a beautiful blue. It wasn't an eyesore sitting in front of the house. It isn't fun to do a cleanup of a basement so I appreciated the Citywide team making the project seamless from their end. One dumpster load wasn't enough for my project but I was able to get another one delivered even though it was the holiday season.

We thought it must have been a bad day, and brushed it off. However, I've since had another, way more rude experience with them and have decided to look elsewhere for assistance. Specifically, they were abrasive and rude, dismissive, and overall probably one of the single most unprofessional phone conversations I've had with another person, simply because I following up on an email they hadn't replied to. If you're looking for great customer service... well, sadly this isn't where you're going to find it.
