I called Mark, it was easy to setup an appointment, and he showed up with his team and got to work. They were super helpful, taking apart custom shelves and furniture, filling bins, and removing appliances. They were careful not to remove stuff I'd put aside to sort through later. In total they made 4 or 5 hauls to the recycling center over 2 days. These guys are awesome and I can't recommend them enough. If you need stuff hauled away, Mark is your guy.

I can't say enough about this Company. They are "OUTSTANDING"…read more I will never again get anyone else. They showed up all the way from Victoria, exactly at the scheduled time. Both men were very polite, professional and courteous. They worked quietly, efficiently and quickly. They loaded very heavy furniture, down a grassy incline from the house, and into a massive well maintained vehicle. (I had gotten others who showed up in rickety unsafe trucks with plywood walls previously). AND their Invoice I received indicated a total price $50.00 below the original Estimated cost. Also they accepted Visa/Mastercard which others do not. Very Happy with Mike and Austin. Thanks guys. Carol C. 7 July 2019 Sooke BC

Mike arrived punctually with a huge, clean container carried by an equally well-kept loading truck…read more My wife and I were impressed by Mike's obvious expertise in placing the container in the perfect place for our access and ease of use. He even placed the container so as not to block the sun from shining on the recently-planted sunflowers of our neighbour. During our little martyrdom, as fond memories transubstantiated into junk, we had occasion to phone Mike a few times. He was always polite and helpful and friendly. As seniors, we sometimes had difficulties for which Mike had solutions. For instance, he told us where we could dispose of environmentally sensitive things like cans of old paint, batteries, and mercury light bulbs, among others. I could go on.... In our experience with Mike's Haul, we found Mike to be THE ideal entrepreneur: hands-on, competent, intelligent, honest and helpful. Bravo Mike! We will turn to you whenever we need to deep-six more flotsam and jetsam of bygone years. '

Booked about 6 weeks out. 3 days before pickup was told we no such truck would be made available…read more A bigger truck would be provided. Apparently the local Uhaul owners can't or won't or likely aren't allowed to make any decisions. This basically negated our two way ferry booking as we couldn't make a new booking due to ferry loads. This also added $90 each way, almost doubling our ferry costs. Good old Nicholas Spears from somewhere up the Uhaul chain washed his hands of us saying we were told a couple days out. Not his problem. He said our kind of booking isn't a priority. On a previous booking the truck we had booked was available but at a location in another town. Would they cover the difference in mileage? Not a prayer. Fooled me twice. Somehow I'm embarrassed when it's Uhaul who should be. Don't you be fooled by the word 'reservation' when Uhaul uses it. Tell 2 friends.

I would highly recommend the team at the Sidney location for their courtesy, customer service and ability to solve the customer's problems as if they were their own. I can't thank you enough for going above and beyond but thank you!!!

The asbestos industry can be incredibly overwhelming. Some of the bigger companies providing these…read moreservices rely on fear-mongering and intimidation, producing client reports that make it sound like you have to remediate everything or tear down your house in order to feel 'safe'. Do your due diligence (or keep reading this review) to get it straight once and for all. I purchased a house in Victoria. Anyone who knows Victoria knows that there is asbestos in almost every house. This is not a problem (and don't let anyone tell you otherwise) unless you 'disturb' the asbestos. In my case, I was disturbing the asbestos because I was renovating the kitchen and bathrooms. The first essential step, when you know you will need to disturb asbestos, is to have an asbestos survey done. This is essentially hiring an asbestos company that will come out and test random areas of the house, to produce a report that identifies where the asbestos is, what kind of asbestos it is and what the protocol for handling the asbestos is, for contractors and homeowners involved. The report also details other items, such as lead paint, mercury, vermiculite (they may charge extra for those samples). Samples add up quite quickly. I was originally quoted 5-7 samples and they walked out with 21, so keep an eye on scope here. I should also note that the company that I chose to do my sampling (Hazpro) was not the same company I chose to do the remediation (Canadian Haz-Mat Environmental). Canadian Haz-Mat Environmental is a fairly new company. After calling several larger companies to get quotes and timelines for remediation, some repeatedly warned me to stay away from this smaller shop, due to their inexperience, implying they are "probably not certified" and there must be a reason that they are "not busy like we are". Due to these comments, I conducted further due diligence, contacting Work Safe BC to ensure they were indeed registered (and they were). Because of the negative commentary, I lost respect for these larger firms, who were attempting to monopolize the industry by tearing down the competition by using several scare tactics, indicating I 'absolutely had to' remediate the entire house (+10k$ of work) and not to trust these smaller companies as their companies employed better expertise ("we've been doing this for years and we've never heard of these guys"). These larger companies started off by having clients (like me) give them the opportunity to prove they are capable and competent. So I decided to entrust Canadian Haz-Mat Environmental with my project, and was I ever fortunate. To start, they were ready to begin immediately, while others were 3-4 weeks out. They did not rely on intimidation techniques, and they did not want to add to my initial scope of work. They understood what I needed to do for my project, and made suggestions on how to save money with their protocol. They took the time to explain every small detail for each question I brought up - and I brought up many. They were incredibly accommodating, allowing the ability for me to add to scope as they progressed, based on my plumber's needs. They were professional, affordable and honest people. I would highly recommend going to Canadian Haz-Mat Environmental for your needs and skip the 'big-box' types. This boutique shop can do everything with integrity, and honesty.
