I wasn't sure what to keep or what to get rid of, but he explained the entire process clearly and answered all of my questions. He and his team arrived on time and made everything go smoothly. I really appreciated their professionalism and excellent customer service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. CleanSlate Junk Removal is a top-quality service provider. From the moment I reached out to request junk removal services, their communication, punctuality, and professionalism were all A++. Every member of the team was courteous, respectful, careful in handling items, and worked with a sense of urgency. I would absolutely hire them again and strongly recommend them for any junk removal project, large or small. It's also worth noting that CleanSlate is part of Cara Collective, a Chicago-based nonprofit workforce development organization that helps people transform their lives through meaningful employment. Supporting CleanSlate's junk removal business is an easy way to help Cara Collective continue its important work. Truly a win-win!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cleanslate was very responsive and professional. After sending in photos, I received a quote with a range of pricing so we knew what it would cost if we added additional items. They followed up with an email to confirm the date and time. On the day of pick up, they confirmed they were on their way and let us know when they were 5 minutes away. Three workers hauled away old furniture and other various things from my parents basement and garage. They were very careful and good problem solvers with the large items. I really appreciate their professional communications and care of my parents home. Definitely would recommend.
